Sarah Palin: Still Clueless!

Ouch. Chris Matthews tears apart the McCain Campaign regarding Sarah Palin's blatant admission that she has no clue what the Vice President does.

Sarah Palin, You Cost How Much?

I never thought I'd come to this, but I have to say it: I'm proud of Sarah Palin. Now, don't worry, that morsel of pride is immediately suffocated by the monsoon of vitriol I hold against her. But where does this pride stem from?

Since the McCain campaign never had any morals to begin with, it comes as no surprise that they were taking voters' money and using it to doll-up Sarah Palin.

The Republican National Committee has spent more than $150,000 to clothe and accessorize vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin and her family since her surprise pick by John McCain in late August.

According to financial disclosure records, the accessorizing began in early September and included bills from Saks Fifth Avenue in St. Louis and New York for a combined $49,425.74.

The records also document a couple of big-time shopping trips to Neiman Marcus in Minneapolis, including one $75,062.63 spree in early September. The RNC also spent $4,716.49 on hair and makeup through September after reporting no such costs in August.

The cash expenditures immediately raised questions among campaign finance experts about their legality under the Federal Election Commission's long-standing advisory opinions on using campaign cash to purchase items for personal use.

And this is the man who is supposed to cut spending and balance the budget? That's like saying, "Spending $100 on lunch is saving since you didn't spend it on dinner". Unless he switches from Neiman-Marcus to Payless, I doubt he doesn't even have a clue how to spell 'budget'.

But, in lieu of all of this chicanery, what makes me really proud is that the McCain spent $75,000 of their people's tax dollars...in Minneapolis! You see, in the good state of Minnesota, there is no sales tax on clothing. So after taking the voters money and spending it on important campaign matters--jackets--the campaign decided they didn't want to bother with having to pay back into the system. Why, that'd cost us even more of the tax payers money! And paying taxes is un-American! So they ran right downtown to Minneapolis, hunkered up a big shopping trolley full of clothes, and carted it back to campaign headquarters. Success!

Oh, by the way, I'm pretty sure all of that was illegal. But at least they did it in Minneapolis! For today, Sarah, you're a winner. But on November 4th it won't be what they call you!

Pinky and...McCain?

Palin and Planning.

Mayors have more impact on planning than Governors. It's a blanket statement, since every state is different. Some states, such as Virginia, have total control over all towns, counties and cities, directly telling them what they can and cannot do. Other states, such as Ohio, are less controlling and allow towns and counties to create their own comprehensive plans. (This may be why there is such a disparity between cities like Mariemount, Gahanna and Lorrain).

So when Sarah Palin was mayor of Wasilla, how did she measure up? It's a valid question, and unfortunately it has the answer none of us want to hear. As any good Republican, she shot down the first zoning plan in Wasilla's history, forgoing the opinion of the public and doing only what furthered her own agenda.

Over the next two months, Palin surprised and excited many in Wasilla by introducing social issues such as abortion and guns to the city's nonpartisan elections on the way to defeating the incumbent. But the centerpiece of her campaign was opposition to Stein's effort to bring zoning to the community.

Wasilla today reflects the results of her free-market approach to development. Running for a second mayoral term in 1999, Palin cited as one of her greatest successes luring a Fred Meyer mega-supermarket to Wasilla. The zoning plan, adopted over then-councilwoman Palin's opposition, proved no impediment for the store, which went up just a few feet from the banks of bucolic Lake Wasilla, with a parking lot that contains Kentucky Fried Chicken, Blockbuster Video, and Carl's Jr.

They are among the dominant landmarks in a city that councilwoman Dianne Woodruff says "looks like a big ugly strip mall from one end to the other."

My word, can it get worse?

"Every time we meet with people for the first time, they say, 'We don't want our town to be like Wasilla,' " said Thea Agnew Bemben, a planner whose firm has worked in neighboring communities.

"You'll hear that a lot of times in meetings. They're afraid Wasilla is coming their way," said Kathy Wells, executive director of the pro-planning Friends of Mat-Su. "The joke now is: Can we put a wall around it and not let it spread?"

Way to go, Sarah! You just can't do anything right. That's something to be proud of!

Psst...Do Something.

Still Not Debunked.

No one has yet to prove false the claim that Governor Sarah Palin forced rape victims to pay for their own rape kit.

Change As in Spare Change!

What Was Up With The Winking?

Y'all remember this crazy little sneer? Well, turns out...Sarah Palin is actually an evil-doer and her winking proves it! The Word of the Lord Says so, so it must be true!!!! (Proverbs 6:12-15)

A scoundrel and villain,
who goes about with a corrupt mouth,

who winks with his eye,
signals with his feet
and motions with his fingers,

who plots evil with deceit in his heart —
he always stirs up dissension.

Therefore disaster will overtake him in an instant;
he will suddenly be destroyed — without remedy.

Evil! Deceit! Dissension! Corrupt! Scoundrel! Villian! She must be destroyed--without remedy!!!

Priest: "The Word of the Lord."
Congregation: "Thanks Be to God."

This Is All I Have To Say.

Gosh! I'm Jealous!

Via TowleRoad, it looks like Sarah Palin is in training for her debate tomorrow!



No fair! I never got to go to debate camp!!! *frowns*

Sarah Palin's Disney Debut!

Sarah Palin: "This Is Why They Won't Let Me Talk!"

It's Like a Bad Disney Movie!

Hmph. So here's an idea. Since McCain has gone all prissy and decided to suspend his campaign (Read: "I can't win!"), how about we put the circus clown Sarah Palin to the test and just hop straight for the VP debate? As Vice President, Palin will need to step up to the plate in any kind of emergency. A debate with two days notice is nothing compared to making decisions that will effect 304 million Americans, much less the repercussions that the entire world will feel.

Piece of cake for the hockey mom, right?

Walking on Broken Glass.

Sarah Palin: I'm Clueless!

If you had any hope that Sarah Palin knew a shred about what's going on in the world, you might want to kiss that hope goodbye. When asked about her stance on "The Bush Doctrine", Sarah replied, "In what respect, Charlie?", as in, "Charlie, what's that?"



I'm a 23 year-old student slash part-time blogger and I knew what the bush doctrine was. She is a possible future leader of this nation and she doesn't even know simple CNN-esque vernacular? Yet again her lack of preparation for the presidency absolutely terrifies me.

This Video is Terrifying.

All I can see is utter madness.

What Alaskans Say About Sarah Palin.

The LA Progressive is featuring an article written by an active resident of Wasilla, Alaska, Anne Kilkenny. As an avid member of the community where Sarah Palin was mayor, Anne has known Sarah for 17 years. In this letter she lays out the truth--that Sarah Palin could be one of the worst things for The United States of America.

You have to read this article. Whoever you are voting for, make an informed decision. Acknowledge who would be a heartbeat from the Presidency. And then consider if that is someone you really want running this country.

Hitler and Palin: BFFs!!!

Everyday Sarah Palin turns out to be more like Adolf Hitler. Much like Hitler, Sarah gives rousing speeches, loves the Lord dearly and likes to make fun of people who aren't like her. And, true to form, both Hitler and Sarah Palin hate books. Those pesky things keep people educated! We can't have that for America, and Sarah Palin certainly did not want that for Alaska. Why, if the people are educated, they won't vote for me!

So when Sarah was mayor of Wasilla, Alaska, she decided to make a list of books to ban at the local library. When the librarian refused, Sarah worked to have the poor old lady fired from her position. Luckily the whole thing blew up in her face, but now we are left to wonder: do we want a Vice President who has almost no respect for the constitution? Censorship is the issue at stake here, and if big brother comes swooping into our libraries to start banning books, what will be next? The Government already taps our phones, reads our e-mails and monitors our homes without warrants. Under a Sarah Palin regime, she'd have no problems trashing the constitution, because if you recall from her speech, reading a criminal their rights is a cumbersome task not worth our policemen's time.

Sarah Palin, you are a nazi. The mere notion of you having any shred of a chance at The White House is a terrifying thought, and not only for this country--it is a terrifying thought for freedom itself. I hope your Presidency never finds fruition. I hope you do not get re-elected as Governor. If I had my way, your career in politics would come to a screeching halt. And, yes, I'll say it--I'm crossing my fingers that you go back to your anti-American Alaskan recession group so the world can really see how crazy you are. Because, Sarah Palin, you really are a batshit crazy loon.
