Palins on Parade

Why do you waste our time with this drivel? Last time I checked McCain lost? I don't have any pent up demand for the Governor from Wasilla.

Why don't you ask Sherman and Mr. Peabody to set the WAYBAC machine to September 2008 and you can replay the campaign?

Bomb Alaska now.

ANC this so a week ago. Come on don't you have any news we can use or at least news we are actually interested in?

AMC - Was Nancy Pfotenauer sent from the future to make sure Skynet goes active?

Sounds like you are a part of the McCain "hit machine". Funny how you never really took McCain to task on the things he said and did during the campaign, always allowing that it wasn't really the "real" John McCain. But you waste no time in throwing Sarah Palin under the bus. Mind you I am all for dismissing her as unqualified and unprepared for VP but your slamming her just seems quite hypocritical. If you are going to make the statement that Piper is as qualified as her mom to be president then you should at least be giving examples of why this is so. Other wise this just seems like an internet cat fight. ROOOOOWWWWWWWRRRRRRRRR

Not one to defend Ms. Palin, but she is TECHNICALLY qualified in that she is a natural-born (as long as the AIP doesn't get their wish of secession) citizen over 42 years of age. I'm pretty sure Piper Palin has 30+ years to go before she is even technically qualified. Just sayin'

amc,

Tsk tsk tsk. All this time and you're still making obvious mistakes. You say "She also is as qualified as her mother to be president."

But in proper Palin-speak, that should be rendered "She is as qualified as her mother to be president, also."

Just one small revision to your Palin speak

"She is as qualified THERE as her mother AGAIN to be president, also."

I am getting fluent in the language lol

The Brady Bunch.

With fangs...

Guess AMC doesn't read the comments on related issues.

Palin is not qualified to be president.

There are two issues here and they do not cancel each other out.

McCain does not get a pass for picking Palin. It was a terrible mistake that put our country at risk.

And the fact that some in the McCain camp are trashing Palin does not mean Palin should be given a pass for her ignorance.

Palin is not stupid but she is barely literate when it comes to civic matters and international and domestic policy. She is not a curious person. She's been a politician for years and yet has not thought out any issue that does not fall into the realm of social conservatism or the state of Alaska.

The press has an oblibation to keep pointing out Palin's inadequacies. She can bone up on American history and current affairs but she can not change her character traits.

Bush got elected in part because the MSM did a terrible job of introducing him to the American public. He was governor of state where the governor has little authority. He was not exactly a successful business man in his own right.

I was ill listening to Judge Judy defend Palin last night on Larry King. It's obvious she does not know Palin's record as mayor and governor is hardly stellar. So, the press needs to focus on just what her accomplishments are.

Ana Marie Cox comically asserts: "On the Palin plane, she stole the hearts of much of the press corps, who bought her trinkets on Halloween and doted on her like would-be aunts (and some uncles)."

...

"[S]tole the hearts of much of the press corps"? ROTFLMAO!

...

Some of the secretly recorded "conversations" between Ana Marie Cox's identically like-minded leftist useful idiots of said "press corps" and Piper Palin:

1. "Piper, why didn't your mother abort your little brother?" "Doesn't she understand the burden that he will place on the limited resources of Mother Earth?"

...

2. "Piper, why does your mother not recognize the need to make peace with al Qaeda, who only want the best for the world?"

...

3. "Piper, have you begun 'sex education' in school?"

...

4. "Piper, why does your mother not worship at the altar of the global warming crisis?"

...

5. "Piper, why does your mother refuse to confiscate all of the property of the rich and give it to ACORN?"

...

6. "Piper, why does your mother oppose interspecies marriage? Why would she prevent peopel from marrying a dog, oak tree or paramecium that is dearly loved?"

...

7. "Piper, why would your mother denounce Barack Obama as someone who pals around with terrorists when the bombs that William Ayers set off were only meant to make this a more just world?"

I can't believe anyone is still taking Sarah Palin seriously. These rambling incoherent rants that pass as interviews are pretty painful to watch and listen to.

Well for once, I actually appreciated AMC's snark on the matter.
.
Let's be honest, people, a three ring circus is forming around Palin. I would save my complaints for when it really starts getting dragged out, Anna Nichole Smith-style.

I'm really tired of McCain defenders trying to turn Sarah Palin into the new yo mama joke. The way Sarah Palin was presented says more about McCain than it does about her. I'd almost feel bad for her, but then I remember "palling around with terrorists" and "Pro-American parts of America."

My turn: "She is, you know, being qualified as is her mother, also, to be, tapped, to be President, if we are so honored, of this great land. Also."
.
Closer?

Before touting any of the Palin kids as potential Presidential candidates, shouldn't they focus on getting one of them through the 12th grade?

There are many unpleasant takes on Mrs. Palin.
For instance, with regard to her toddler with special needs:
1) Why would she parade that toddler in noisy places - especially the convention hall filled with nutty right-wingers howling at sound level above that at an airport runway with a roaring jumbo jet at take-off?
Don't kids with special needs feel discomfort or pain at high sound levels? Don't they feel stressed when roused and carried around frequently?
.
2) Why would Sarah parade that kid around - as if she deserves credit for letting it live?
Since she reads all the papers, she ought to know that the older a woman over 30 years old run then the higher risk of conceiving kids with Down Syndrome.
Sarah conceived when she was over 40 years old!
But I doubt that she was displaying her remorse while parading the poor kid around.
Would Sarah not have been more effective, her message more compelling and would she not have done America a greater good by sensitizing USA's career women to the increased risk they take when they postpone childbirth till later in life?
Yet she, the devout pentecostal, would have nothing to do with sex education or abstinence and, in fact, she would (mis)use campaign donations to buy her dud Todd silk boxers.
Well, nice viewing Sarah - for the next high-risk conception.

I believe in Palinese one has to always accompany "also" with "too". Thus:

"She is also too as qualified as her mother to plow through the Presidency door if it as you know opens and this land so honored is."

Refuse to take questions afterward, and there you have the essence of Palinism and Palinese.

But what about the First Dude, er, I mean, the First Eunich?

I mean, talk about relentlessly passive...

Here, let me help you:

Public Function detectPottyMouth( inString As String ) As Boolean
.
..Dim bFlag as Boolean
.
..if ( ( index( azz, instring ) = 0 ) then
.... bFlag = true
..else
...
...
..end if
.
..Set detectPottyMouth - bFlag
.
End Function
.
Yeah, it's crude, not a lot of thought put in it, but, my point is, if I can do it, so can you!

@themav: Excellent Palinese sentence! And good observation on the "also, too,", "as you know", and "if...honored" Palinese constructions. You also correctly identified need to endlessly repeat a verb, e.g. "plowed", "tapped", etc.
.
Your only omission (as you no doubt noticed in my post #12) is that Palinese requires the use of unnecessary gerund phrases, so that "qualified" becomes "being qualified", "our ticket represents the incumbency" becomes, "our ticked, representing the incumbency", etc.

i think queencersei just won the thread

Sarah Stalin hasn't fvcked off yet?
