A New Brand of Conservative Politics

November 18th, 2009 2 Comments

A New Brand of Conservative Politics
She’s smart, attractive and lacks any brain-to-mouth filter.  She came into politics by chance, dug her heels in, and much to the dismay of Democrats (and some Republicans) refuses to leave.  She is not Sarah Palin. She is Michele Bachmann.
Like Palin, Congresswoman Michele Bachmann represents a new breed of conservative [...]

Sarah gives you a visual

November 17th, 2009 No Comments

She knows how to sell a book, for sure. From Going Rogue:
That [religious] zeal carries through to the 2008 campaign, when she relates that she took a call from Pastor Rick Warren while she was showering. He offered to pray with her. “I said, absolutely! Pray away!” Palin writes. “I would never turn down prayer [...]

Sexy Pretty Political Things

November 17th, 2009 No Comments

Sarah Palin and I agree on one thing: the need to promote healthy eating (eating what you kill) and exercising (killing what you eat). On everything else, I feel her politics are all shine, no substance. What will make me note-worthy? What will get me headlines? Drilling into a national reserve? OK!
But there is something [...]

Palin in Asia talks about “Common-Sense”

September 23rd, 2009 No Comments

She’s not in Alaska anymore. In her first speech outside the US, former Governor of Alaska and Vice Presidential candidate, Sarah “Barracuda” Palin, outlined her new ideology: Common-Sense Conservatism.
Forget compassionate conservatism; step aside, neo-conservatism. Common-sense conservatism is all about, well, common-sense. Although the speech was not open to the media, The Wall Street Journal got [...]

Palin Wears Shorts

July 2nd, 2009 No Comments

There is really no point/mission/or purpose to this picture. But I guess it helps hammer the point home made by a recent Vanity Fair profile of her: she’s the first truly attractive, relevant female politician.

Vanity Fair’s profile of Sarah Palin

July 1st, 2009 1 Comment

Sarah Palin might actually have a lot in common with Michael Jackson (RIP). Both inspire passionate opinions of them, favorable or otherwise; both have had rather odd moments during their time as a celebrity; and both are lighter skinned than Mario Lopez.
Add another to the similarities column: both have inspired somewhat unflattering portraits in the [...]

Letterman Protest turns into Right-Wing Rally

June 17th, 2009 1 Comment

What is this, 2008? Sarah Palin causing a ruckus, bringing every right-wing nutcase out of the woodwork. Letterman might soon be called “terrorist.” For now, his son is a “bastard” and his wife is a “slut.” Enjoy.

Hillary could teach Sarah a thing or two (or ten)

June 15th, 2009 No Comments

From The Daily Beast’s founder and editor, Tina Brown, a few tips for Sarah Palin on how to be a truly empowered female politician:
Take a leaf out of Hillary’s book, Sarah. (Or from Condi Rice, for that matter. Clinton’s predecessor in the job likewise knows how to disappear herself for a bit while she recoups [...]

Palin V. Letterman: Round 3

June 12th, 2009 No Comments

Now I am certain Sarah Palin will either be dissuaded to run in 2012 or will lose the primary if does.
In what is now the feud of the week, Palin responded to Letterman’s apology after her response to his joke. Truth be told, the joke was funny.
Round 3: Palin called Letterman’s apology a “weak excuse” [...]

Letterman responds to Palin

June 11th, 2009 1 Comment

I am afraid Sarah and Todd have underestimated the power David Letterman has. If they recall, last year, before election day, when Letterman lambasted McCain for canceling an appearance on his show (remember John, Sarah? he was the guy who would tag along in your rallies), McCain had to succumb to Letterman and issue an [...]

Palin calls Letterman ‘Pathetic’

June 10th, 2009 No Comments

Comedic gold:

In a follow up to Palin’s weekend trip to New York, Letterman’s “Top Ten” list on Monday featured “highlights of Sarah Palin’s trip to New York.” Number two on the list was “bought makeup at Bloomingdale’s to update her ‘slutty flight attendant’ look.”
At this rate, Sarah Palin might run out of air by 2010. [...]

One book Palin will not burn

May 13th, 2009 1 Comment

Besides the Bible, of course.
Gov. Sarah Palin has reportedly signed a book deal with HarperCollins and the Christian-y Zondervan. It will include, among a bevy of political posturing, “her side” to the infamous Katie Couric interview, a polite depiction of McCain, and her feeling about her son’s tour in Iraq–oh yeah, and Bristol becoming a [...]

We are approaching the best time of the weekend: Friday afternoon. (The worst time? Sunday night–what a sorry state we are all in then, eh?). If any of you decide to buy any food during the weekend that may be in need of a condiment, please, learn from our president and avoid the regular mustard, [...]

Palin Might Attend WH Correspondents Dinner. Or Not.

May 6th, 2009 No Comments

FOX News (ah, FOX News) is apparently going to send Sarah Palin and First Dude of Alaska, Todd, as their representatives to the White House Correspondents Dinner. That is, if she is going.
Her people are offering only shady answers about her schedule:
The governor may be on the East Coast this weekend to attend state events [...]

Palin is on Twitter… Shark=jumped.

This is the equivalent to watching your mom join Facebook…if your mom were a lighting rod for praise, hatred, and lust by millions across the globe.
