It’s Raining Moose, Hallelujah
During a quick stop at a diner in Cleveland, Ohio, Sarah Palin was asked for her reaction to the AIG bailout.
‘Dissapointed [sic] that taxpayers are called upon to bailout [sic] another one,’ she said.
Normally, I’d blame the siccage on the reporter, but with Palin, I’m not so sure.
‘Certainly AIG though with the construction bonds that they’re holding and with the insurance that they are holding very, very impactful to Americans so you know the shot that has been called by the Feds its understandable but very, very disappointing that taxpayers are called upon for another one.’
Maybe the /b/tards who hacked Palin’s email ran off with all of her punctuation and connecting verbs, too.
Told that her traveling press corps was getting lonely in the back of her campaign plane, Palin said, “Are you getting lonely? Gee, yeah, come on up then!”
Rowr!
Don’t forget- Not only does McCain not know who the Prime Minister of Spain is (semi-defensible, I guess), he thinks he’s some rogue state dictator/drug lord (um, not at all defensible).
These people, as they were even when the bounce times were good, are complete buffoons.
Every time I hear her speak I imagine “Fargo” ending with the sheriff laughing with the criminal after he woodchips his accomplice and then escaping to the Caribbean with him– all while Todd sits at home doodling a moose stamp.
She talks like a freshmen composition paper. Or Bush in lipstick and and skirt. Or Bush in lipstick and a skirt confusing bravado with self-confidence.
More quotes to mine via LGM:

Okay, two points:
1) The writer is responsible for spelling and punctuation errors, not the person quoted. This whole story looks like a reporter’s shorthand that never got fixed.
2) For the luva Christ, give someone a warning before you link to the Malkin thing. It’s against everything I hold dear and true to click on that site.
You mean Palin didn’t spell out “dissapointed” to the reporter? Well, that tears it. I mean, that would imply some sort of, I don’t know, sarcasm on the part of D. Aristophanes.
> all while Todd sits at home doodling a moose stamp.
No, the thing that Todd would be doodling would be a person whose name starts with “B”.
Incest is a great reason to be Down, if you know what I mean.
/b/tards FTL!
Stupid little script kiddies. Stick to harassing Scientologists and posting child pr0n.
Does Governor Palin have a program to help the U.S. Americans and the South Africa and the Iraq afford the maps for the people who can’t afford the maps and such as?
Lipstick on a Pig: STFU already with the incest crap.
MzNicky – I know, I know … it does just look like bad transcribing.
Meanwhile, Malkin links are normally terrible, but read her correspondent’s analysis of the Palin email hacking, it’s pretty good.
“Gee, yeah, come on up, then.” Wow, Marge Gunderson in the flesh.
I hope this isn’t taken the wrong way. But when I listen to Palin talk about issues, or respond to questioning, she always strikes me as a mother talking to her children – or in this case, someone else’s children. I know women who talk to adults like they are children, with like a very demanding / defensive tone, as if everyone in the world, including me, has to grant her the utmost respect and reverence for the sole fact that she’s a “mommy.” This is Sarah Palin. It doesn’t matter to her that she can’t speak intelligently about any topic of national importance, because she’s “a mommy.”
Barack Obama without a teleprompter:

Holy fuck, did anybody read the excerpts of her interview with Hannity?
Her quotes read like they come from a not-too-bright high school kid. The phrasing indicates a clear lack of familiarity with the subject (the economy and the Wall St. troubles) and an inability to think on her feet:
Not quite as retarded as Chimpy but a close second indeed.
And then there’s the substance of what she’s saying:
Shorter: “We need to regulate these big financial institutions! My running mate was instrumental in deregulating these big financial institutions! He’s going to regulate these big financial institutions if you elect him President!”
Not to mention that she blames “the corruption on Wall Street” exclusively for the collapse. Nope, no corruption on K Street or in the Capitol, no not at all.
More sophomoric thinking / talking: “And that’s why John McCain tapped me to be a team of mavericks…” Good christ, THIS is the Republicans’ choice for VP?
FSM. We have got to defeat The Ghost and Mrs. Fuckstick.
Legalize:
“But when I listen to Palin talk about issues, or respond to questioning, she always strikes me as a mother talking to her children – or in this case, someone else’s children. I know women who talk to adults like they are children…”
————————————————————————
That’s exactly how I feel when I hear Al Gore speak.
Yeah, those videos of Obama mis-speaking and correcting himself are already a million times more intelligent than anything Sarah Palin has yet said, scripted or unscripted. I heartily encourage Republicans to spread these presumably insulting videos.
1) What MzNicky said (both times)
2) There is no word count Mrs. Palin. You can stick with one “very” per sentence
3) Her answer from the town hall about what specific skills she had to be VP is way worse than this. Her answer in short: she has confidence and is ready. Job interview FAIL!
And to any of the right wing Americans who think it’s somehow a gaffe to analogize having teen sex and ending up pregnant as being “punished” with a baby, I’m afraid I have to directly tell you creepy a**holes to go straight to hell, because, yeah, teens who end up pregnant and don’t want to be are being punished. They’re being punished by a right wing which opposes actual sexual health education, contraception, and abortion as an option. So, yeah, if you think “punished” was a gaffe, please, please, pleaaaase don’t vote for Obama, and stop bothering the rest of us sane people.
“Gee, yeah, come on up then!”
Yahh, okey-dokey!
Can we ask questions while we’re at it?
You know who else was supremely confident in ignorance? George W. Bush Jr. How’d that work out?
“Certainly AIG though with the construction bonds that they’re holding and with the insurance that they are holding very, very impactful to Americans so you know the shot that has been called by the Feds its understandable but very, very disappointing that taxpayers are called upon for another one.”
What does this mean? Anything?
The Spain in brain stays mainly insane. Haven’t we had enough of the cowboy er mooseboy mentality?
That’s odd, Ringo, given that Al Gore has a demonstrable command of a wide range of issues. That you can’t follow along, is kind of on you.
Ringo, no one cares what you think.
Legalize: She sounds to me like many women I know who teach kindergarten or elementary school children. They don’t seem able to drop the patronizing, wheedling tone of voice nor the faux-upbeat diction even when conversing with adults. It’s kind of a passive-aggressive demand for automatic deference, and it’s highly annoying when the grownups are trying to talk.
You folks are all going to need therapy if McCain wins this election.
In fact, most of you already need therapy.
You folks are all going to need therapy if McCain wins this election.
Fakey! “if” McCain wins? What kind of rightard are you?
Piefilter!
Ringo is an B- winger troll. He can inject strawman after strawman, but can’t really master the sociopathic hate-peddling part.
Oh for the love of flying pasta. This woman is a trainwreck. She can’t even form complete sentences. It’s Bush all over again, except whinier and somehow more patronizing.

“she always strikes me as a mother talking to her children”

Exactly–like Bush, who answers every question as though patiently explaining something to a dumbbell. As someone smart once pointed out, “…because that’s how it was explained to him.”
Gringo: Oh yeah? Well … well … I think you’re the one who needs therapy! Right now, and not even after the election, Bucko! So there, you poopyhead!
I enjoy watching Palin spit out lingo without having any idea what she’s talking about. The campaign is actually doing a pretty good job of giving her things she can say to sound like she has some grasp of national and international issues. I don’t envy the person who has the job of tutoring her though.
I’m actually rethinking my prior position that Mitt would provide the most entertainment as running mate. I don’t think even he could provide all the laughs that palin has.
I watched that clip this morning and wondered the same thing: is she channeling Bush The Elder????
1. Sarah is so last week.
2. If no other major event happens, McCain is toast.
3. Rove knows this.
4. So … what’s the next major event?
Worth thinking about a little … something “patriotic” … frightening … hmmmm, book burning didn’t turn out so well; invading Pakistan gives a major mixed message; confusing Spain and Spanish-speaking South America was a bit of an oops; North Korea is concerned about the health of the Dear Leader, not much of a threat there … China? Sure, they own a good chunk of our debt, but we could always tip them the wink that we’re just playing stuff for public consumption, and their leaders are smart enough to understand that. I dunno. Any suggestions?
The big event is the evil libruls who hacked into Palins super-secret-secure email in order to harass her innocent family and all those adorable children. I hear the hackers had a special phone that connected them to Obama at all times and that Obama was actually looking for a way to use her email to break up their marriage. EEEEEEVVVVVVVIIIIIIIILLLLLL!!!!!!!11!!!!1!!!!!
PS, bombing of the embassy in Yemen. Expect more events like this in an attempt to help McLame focus on national security. They need to bring this thing back to making people scared of brown people, instead of them being scared of not being able to pay their bills. I bet they’ll bust out a bin Laden video in a couple of weeks, or maybe up the terror threat level or some shit.
Hacking email? Bit of blowback there, no? Being as how it’s SOP for Bushie
bin Laden: Bingo! We have a winner.
Especially since HE wants McSame …
That is honestly the most informative and sane post I have ever seen over at Hulkin’s site.
Wow, good comeback. Homosayswhat? I’m rubber you’re glue? Got any “yo Mama” jokes you wanna throw out while we’re at it?
Palin bought one of Newt Gingrich’s campaigns-in-a-can from GOPAC.
She’s never had any idea what she’s saying, it’s just the same rightard template.
.
There’s a new troll?
Oh frabjous day! Caloo, Callay!
His vorpal wit went snicker-snark
Ringo’s right about one thing – some of us do need therapy. For example, I am in need of this type of therapy.
Todd sits at home doodling a moose stamp. Did anyone see Greta Van Sustern’s “interview” of Todd?
Tbogg has a good take-down of it.

You talk almost a purdy as Sarah Palin
“Well, it was an unfair attack on the verbiage that Senator McCain chose to use because the fundamentals, as he was having to explain afterwards, he means our workforce, he means the ingenuity of the American people.”
So McCain after-the-fact claims that when he said “orange” he really meant “potato” and it was totally unfair of Obama to think he really meant “orange.”
“Impactful”?
It’s a perfectly cromulent word, I guess.
“She sounds to me like many women I know who teach kindergarten or elementary school children. They don’t seem able to drop the patronizing, wheedling tone of voice nor the faux-upbeat diction even when conversing with adults. It’s kind of a passive-aggressive demand for automatic deference, and it’s highly annoying when the grownups are trying to talk.”
Thanks MzNicky, you nailed exactly what I was struggling to articulate about her. Reminds me of when I had to meet with the kids’ kindergarten or primary grade teachers; they ‘d have us sit in those miniature chairs in the classroom and lecture me about whether my kids came to school with mittens and hat on instead of talking about their school performance. Bitches.
Everytime I read what Palin says, I imagine some poor young intern kid assigned to coach her, with clipboard of “talking points” in hand, giving up on the core, but reduced to rote learning of key phrases. Judging from what she said in her Hannity interview, someone needs to restrict her viewing of teevee news shows, lest she continue to contradict the RNC themes.
Lucky for us, she’s probably stupi– I mean maverick enough to ignore their restrictions and attempt to understand things on her own and to demonstrate her brilliance at every opportunity. Oh she shines!
goddamit, are you seriously this kid?
She talks like a freshmen composition paper.
No shit. Anyone who knows what ‘bullshitting your way through an answer” sounds like, recognizes exactly what she is doing.
Now, whether they admit to that depends upon whether they are drinking the Kool Aid.
You talk almost a purdy as Sarah Palin
It was a complete sentence, and it made sense. If you are able to interpret Palin’s stream of consciousness about AIG for the rest of us, please don’t hesitate to share.
I’ve had my fair share of exposure to rather unintelligent people trying to sound intelligent, so I’d like to offer Princess Palin a few tips I’ve picked up from them:
1 – “per hearsay” – As in, “AIG doesn’t sell construction bonds, per hearsay, but my handlers told me it’s similar.”
2 – “if by perchance” – As in, “Then, as if by perchance, the Feds decide to bail out AIG, we won’t really own a part of AIG, per hearsay, but we should lower taxes.”
3 – “exaggerate the situation” – As in “Higher taxes will only exaggerate the situation, and then you’ll wish you’d voted for John McCain and I*.” *Bonus grammatical error used to imply smarty-pantsness.
Does anyone else have some tips?
I’m still waiting for the suspiciously timed terror attack inside of our borders about, oh, one week before the elections.
Would that qualify as ‘some shit’, legalize?
Ans where did this Ringo guy come from, anyway?
Does anyone else have some tips?
Choose some bunch of ancient savages and pretend that what they did has bearing now.
On her family’s reaction to be picked as the VP nominee:
“It was a time of asking the girls to vote on it, anyway. And they voted unanimously, yes. Didn’t bother asking my son because, you know, he’s going to be off doing his thing anyway, so he wouldn’t be so impacted by, at least, the campaign period here. So ask the girls what they thought and they’re like, absolutely. Let’s do this, mom.”
Just – wow. I honestly think this is totally a fabricated story – there are already two other stories she’s put out about how she reacted when asked – but this is the presentation she’s putting out there, so I have to comment –
First – about the son “he’s off doing his thing anyway?” um – peculiar way to talk about your son shipping off to Iraq?
And second – the story is all about what the kids think about HER. The notion that parents might try to let the kids know how their lives may be impacted doesn’t seem to be worth including in her fairy tale.
Even the Bush family put out some folderol about the family discussing how running for office affected the twins.
Palin’s the Star in her own Excellent Adventure movie, and everyone else is just supporting cast.
Re. Ripley: Palin could switch “imply” and “infer” I guess…or say “I could care less” about something. Or she could just stay true to her Republican roots and misuse the crap out of the word “fascist”! :p
“It’s like Bush all over again, only more whiney and condescending.”
But with a nice set of bazoombas.
Seriously, does anyone else think that a lot of Republican women will be receiving Sarah Palin glasses as Christmas gifts?
Seriously, g, Palin believes that her “mommy” status is all we need to know about her qualifications. Hell, her kids think it would be cool if she were the VP!
Me:
“If you are able to interpret Palin’s stream of consciousness about AIG for the rest of us, please don’t hesitate to share.”
————————————————————————————–
Sure, she’s saying that it is disappointing that the American taxpayers are footing the bill to bail out AIG, but considering the impact that AIG’s failure would have on the economy and on individual Americans, the Fed’s decision is understandable, if regrettable.
And, by the way, impactful is a legitimate word.
Seriously, g, Palin believes that her “mommy” status is all we need to know about her qualifications. Hell, her kids think it would be cool if she were the VP!
What’s weird about it, though, is what it reveals about how she views “being a mom.”
If I were asked to accept a challenging new position, I think I’d sit the kids down and make sure they understand the impact such a change would have on their lives. Moving house. Going to a different school, living in a strange city, missing their friends. Having Secret Service agents following them. Even if the kids were like “Kewl! Go for it, Mom!” I’d still make sure they understood it.
If my 19 year old son were going off to Iraq where he might be killed, wounded, or have to kill someone, I don’t think I’d blithely refer to him as “off doing his own thing.”
Now maybe she and Todd did have a serious discussion with the girls, and I’m sure in her heart of hearts she is concerned about what Track is going to experience in Iraq.
But she’s telling us what she thinks is a Good Story about her – which is unwittingly revealing that she cares more about herself than anything else.
I hope the October surprise is that Bin Laden gets captured in the mountains, McCain happens to be in the area, and secret video is leaked of McCain, pacing in front of Bin Laden lashed to a chair, as McCain berates him about the meaning of freedom and the American dream and getting more and more angry, and he raises his fist to hit him, then just as he is about to deliver the blow, McCain drops his arm and turns away as he mutters “You’re not worth it.” Then Bin Laden says, “I always knew you were weak, McCain, just like your old man” then McCain says, “Fuck it,” and turns around and kills him with one punch.
If this happens, I will vote for him at least six times.
That is dumb.
The reason Track will be off ‘doing his own thing’ is because he was heavily into partying and using drugs so the made him join the military.
Seriously, that is why she’s so flippant.
Wow. Malkin manages to be utterly wrong even in introducing text that correct her. Just amazing.
MzNicky,
Yeah, that kindergarten thing sums it up very well. It’s what makes me want to yell “Shut the fuck up with that” at her every time I see her.
Apparently, he also can’t quite master blockquote or italic tags.

Thanks for your analysis toby.
‘Impactful’ is dictionarily cohesivistic with Britainical languagoidal normalitude.
And, by the way, impactful is a legitimate word.
A stupid made-up word in the dictionary is still a stupid made-up word.
4. So … what’s the next major event?
Ooh! Ooh! I know!
The US quietly backs out of some of the agreements that stabilized the situation in Iraq, which causes the violence and terrorism to revert to pre-awakening levels. The media shifts its focus from the economy to “National Security.” Republicans loudly claim that only McCain has the experience and leadership skills needed for the critical foreign policy tasks at hand. Only a idealistic neophyte like Obama would suggest pulling out of Iraq all willy-nilly at such a sensitive moment! If it works as they hope, they’ll even try to work in the word “embolden”.
You talk almost a purdy as Sarah Palin
And when Legalize runs for VP, I will actually care.

Guessie was a far better troll than Ringo.
Ringo’s like the dipshit in your company who walks into the break room bloviating about how great McCain is and how lousy Obama is, and drops a veiled racist comment or two before trying fruitlessly to engage you in banter about the game last night or the chick who he thought was eyeing him in the sports bar last weekend.
Then, when he leaves the break room, everyone still there — and I mean everyone — comments on what a pathetic fucking tool he is.
That’s the kind of troll Ringo is.
Do you have special affection for any particular species?

Same answer.
Where’s Cangrejero on this one? He worked some stuipid corporate job where they actually talked like this, I think.

That’s probably the level of the campaign interns who are training her.

Wow. It really is All About Her
Today, she unveiled the Palin/McCain ticket. I’ve never heard a vice presidential candidate putting themselves first before. It’s an unwritten rule that the president is always first. But, not for Sarah. She touted the “Palin and McCain administration”
I think this thread has been impactfully synergized, and my work here is done.
Well, late to the party again, probably too late for this comment to be impactful (like Ringo’s bowels):

America’s gas-tank may be almost empty – so won’t you let Mr. McCain & me pop the cap off, look inside & flick our Bics so we can see if it really is yet?
She better hope she’s dead wrong, or else she’s going to have one of the shortest careers ever in national politics. Crash McCain is the only one I can think of offhand that’s ever had a 2nd chance from the GOP – & let’s face it, he’s only there because all his competition self-destructed.
Even small children can speak to the topic with more intelligence than this … yeah, if she gets elected, mark my words: she’s really going to shake some shit up. If the GOP wins & Wet-Start keels over dead, Wall Street will make this week look like the good old days. It’d be like finding out your neurosurgeon has undiagnosed grand mal epilepsy … I can scarcely imagine Wall Street’s JOY at having the fucking Chicken Lady in the White House.

Fuck me to tears. Sideways. With a rusty chainsaw.
