It’s springtime, and I’m having a nasty allergy flare-up. I’ve tried everything… what I’m pretty sure what would work would be blasting away with an assault rifle at all those damn pinko pollen spores, but the socialists who run this country gave me all sorts of static when I opened fire with a Kalashnikov at the botanical garden flowerbeds. Glenn Reynolds tried to warn us this sort of travesty would be commonplace if Obama got elected, but nooooo, we wouldn’t listen.
Anyway it’s also a holiday weekend, so there’s not much point in writing a post that might actually be about anything.
Better, surely, to write about nothing, which brings us by commodious vicus of recirculation back to the interminably flushing toilet that is the 21st-century Gee Oh Pee, and thus inevitably to Sarah Palin, who may be a piece of poo, but is nevertheless buoyant. Which is all that matters! Just float to the top, you know? As a commenter in Ann Althouse’s blog comments section emanates (source chosen in keeping with the “cloacal & circular” leitmotifs, and to highlight the utter pointlessness that is Palin):
Run, Sarah, run!
At least the presidential race will be entertaining!
She’ll kick Obama’s ass a few times, win or lose, and she won’t sit around fretting about his skin color.
Yeah, I bet probably not.
Sarah Palin is all about cashing in on the rubes’ nasty, preposterous grievances.
See also and most recently this, where Palin’s “team” egregiously fucking up a photo op turns into, well, as per one of the Big Stupid Websites, an ALINSKY LAMESTREAM MEDIA COMMIE ATTACK!!!!
It’s what I call stirring the Palin-Fury; a storm of exhausting personal drama the MSM keeps perpetually alive at all costs in order to undermine the Governor as a serious political figure. Once you see The Matrix behind what the MSM is doing — the real goal behind their sinister behavior — you understand that whether or not whatever story they’re reporting on is true or valid has nothing to do with whether or not they’ve succeeded — because it’s just a fact that anything that keeps the Palin-Fury swirling is a success….
When it comes to Palin, the goal is never the truth, the goal is to Alinsky her with nonsensical personal drama that not only serves to suck all the air out of any chance she has at being taken seriously but also to exhaust her supporters. The psy-ops tactic is to make us blame Palin for this never-ending nonsensical soap opera, to make us wish she would just go away.
… Which is so crazy that it just has to be sincere. Unfortunately, as far as conspiracy mongering goes, it founders on the rocks of it being completely fucking hilarious that there is a liberal plot to make Palin look like a self-absorbed loonball in order to make her go away.
I mean, snark aside, I kind of wish she would, as that might be an indication that the Republican Party “base” had finally learned how to wipe. But until then, guys, you may be congratulating yourselves on having just enjoyed some darn tasty chocolate, but everyone else knows what you’ve really been eating.
Have some more!

SaTHERSday Night Fever!
The Snowbilly Princess will not run a serious campaign, as it would interfere with the grifting, but she will hog as much of the limelight as possible up to the last minute. Unfortunately, far from having learned to wipe, the Gooper base has not yet learned not to smear it all over themselves and the walls.
Thersaturday Night Live!
Evening
Sorry to hear about the allergies. Mine are not bad as yet, owing to the unseasonably cool weather here in the northern Rockies inhibiting the plants’ annual orgy.
saTHERSday nite live!
That Althouse thread is much fun:
They don’t seem to get how much everyone hates her…
It’s been way wet here, and then it got way hot. It’s an assault. Haven’t had hay fever like this in years.
Swine are actually quite tidy animals, given an opportunity. This is why the Reprivatican symbol is not a pig.
It has also been a wet spring here, so I anticipate respiratory hell as soon as it warms up a bit, which the weather critters inform me should happen mid-week.
Palinberries! It’s whats for dinner.
The Matrix?
Outhouse seems not to realize that we’ve always known how to destroy Palin. All we’d have to do is ignore her; a worse fate than that is beyond the woman’s ken. But she amuses us with her continual whinging about what a victim she is…
Evening y’all. Entering the fray from my brand new ranch. A humble abode that fetches deer, a great horned owl that claimed a visitors psychotic Chihuahua named Stimpy, and a multitude of gophers.
Congrats! Sounds like Rancho OFG has gotten of to a booming start. Whereabouts in the state is the idyllic haven located?
They took the brown pill.
Well done!
Just let me know when you spark up the Sarahjuana.
Seems to me that it is more like Saraheroin.
I just had a “Dress Up Sarah Palin” game/ad appear on my screen…just about choked. I know FDL can’t control its ad content, but ye gods!
Sarahmphetamine?
Rich Lowery just saw starbursts.
Also a strong possibility. Wasilla is the meth capital of Alaska.
Rich Lowry reads FDL? No way…his head would explode.
All of them make you stupid.
Sounds great!
Pretty sure that must run on other sites, most notably the ones he does read.
woohoo!!! yay ofg!!! and yikes about stimpy
Just like Sarah!
And whiny.
OK, sorry to bail early kids, but it’s Benadryl calling me to sleep…
And incoherent.
Sleep well. Hopefully the worst will pass before too much longer.
Just half an hour south of capitol city.
g’nite thers – hope you feel better soon dood
Down around Purcell or Chickasha?
And paranoid.
Refudiate.
That’s a good one, Sar.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Yes, poor Stimpy. But, an annoying, googly eyed, quivering sack of shit that wouldn’t amount to a taco and a fur hat compared to a majestic, stealth flier, hunter, killer with a six foot wingspan–I think the circle of life was beneficial to planet Oilfieldguy. At least over here.
Dayam dood, you are good. Split the diff and say just south of Dibble.
Grew up in Bartlesville, did my undergraduate in Tahlequah, and went to graduate school in Norman. Did not leave the state until I was 35. My son currently lives in Bartlesville and my sister and her daughter both live in Ponca City.
Yes, I know you have deep roots here. I was just North of Bartlesville in the early hours of 9-11.
How fitting that AMC is airing Apocalypse Now… We’re at the ‘don’t ya love the smell of napalm in the morning’…! Smells like ‘Victory’ to me…! ;-)
Heh. I show this in all my classes on the last day.
Dood, It’s the napalm affecting the waves…! ;-)
Time for me to toddle off. Take care all.
OFG!
That leaves me with quite the mental image.
Aloha, Dr. D…! I’ve finally managed to upload a vid to YouTube…! ;-)
g’nite dr dick
Ooooh CT — I love this! I adore sunsets. Breathtaking.
*heh* Not too shabby, eh…? ;-)
is Stimpy named after a cartoon character? I thought my kids watched a cartoon with a charcter named Stimpy. Ren & Stimpy or something?
Uh oh, a Google YouTube Ren & Stimpy gave me porn videos
non porn r&s
You need to google ‘Pinky and the Brain’…! ;-)
Sort of. His owner had a different name for him, but I noted the massive manic depressive traits instantly that was the trademark of the leetle dog on Ren and Stimpy. He came in, promptly deposited a landmine in the middle of the living room and ran backwards outside in sheer terror, where the owl gently scooped him up in silent flight. Well, except for the excited utterances of the now shitless victim. Hilarious in a tragic sort of way. Reminded me of Democrats running from their base, strangely enough. Could be a metaphor.
Uh oh, indeed. Guess I shoulda paid more attention to what my kids were watching.
Wow. I don’t remember this at all. Was this in the 80′s? We didn’t have a tv then.
Funny stuff.
You a lawyer by trade?
OMG, an owl got him. Bravo! Sorry, that wasn’t very nice of me.
early 90′s (link to wiki)
No, I drive a big truck.
*heh* Through some totally gnarly situations too, eh…? ;-)
didn’t think you were a lawyer. but the use of the term excited utterance……..it’s an exception to the hearsay rule.
That was just about the time I went back to work part-time with young children. Reading Rainbow and Sesame Street, and of course Fred are all I remember. Oh, and In Living Color, which we all watched and loved.
Heh. Pinky and the brain…had the little girl that was so mean to the cat. I always figured this was the source of Digby’s tale of the little girl swinging a cat around by the tail while screaming, “You will love me!” Another metaphor on elected Dem’s base treatment.
Actually, Palin is all about being a big-ju-ju feardoll…to drag around in front of Obama and make him seem more palatable to gullible democrats and progressives, and to help them ignore the hosing he’s given us.
