Monday Watercooler: Palin gets a hand of her own

Culture & Ideas
- There is this invention called paper: Rocket science is not my field, but if you are Sarah Palin, and a talking point is that President Obama can’t speak minus a teleprompter, you should not be caught with middle school notes scribbled on your hand. Especially at an event where you knew the questions beforehand!

- Retarded for me, not for thee: Dear former Gov. Palin: please treat us like adults. Just admit you give “Rushie” Limbaugh a pass on the word “retarded” because he’s an ally. Anything else you spout is moose manure.

- RIP Brendan Burke: The youngest son of Maple Leafs’ GM Brian Burke, died in a car accident on Friday. The father and son received recent media attention when Brendan publicly came out.

- DADT News: Read the Military Times today. It has a survey showing that troop opposition to gays and lesbians serving openly has sharply decreased since 2004. Twenty bucks says Sen. John McCain will never cite this study.

- Reason 639 to support Gillibrand: Unless you are a Log Cabin Republican, it’s time to get behind New York Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand with money and volunteer time. At this weekend’s Human Rights Campaign dinner, she announced her plan to offer an amendment to defund DADT. She’s carried our water. Time for us to do the same for her.

- Everything is going to be okay. Sade has a new album: After 10 years, Sade is returning with new tunes. Please forgive as I do the dance of joy.

- New additions: There are 24 new members to the Presidential Advisory Council on HIV/AIDS (PACHA). Rosie Perez and Phil Wilson, executive director of the Black AIDS Institute, are part of the incoming group.

- Who dat on Bourbon Street: If you have money, take your butt to New Orleans this week. The Saints marched into the Super Bowl and Mardi Gras is around the corner. Get your party on Big Easy!





You have to pay to attend the Tea Party convention, and they pay Sarah Palin how much? And they can’t spring for a telepromopter and she has to write notes on her hand?! How retarded is that?
@ MichaelinDallas – Totally retarded.
I think any credibility this bimbo had has slipped through her fingers…….:D
A bimbo, wow… I guess Obama can be considered a Bimbo as well, since he can’t do a damn thing without someone ELSE’s words on a teleprompter… at least that’s her own handwriting. At least she has ideas.
And sadly, the new Sade… ain’t so great. She sounds rather male in a few of the songs, so maybe males will like her more now.
Mrs. Mens,
You say some silly things (ie, Sade and men). But I forgot. You are so revolutionary that your thinking is eons ahead the rest of us.
Hugs and love
James
>At least she has ideas.
Stop the presses! Sarah Palin has “ideas”!
We’re setting the bar pretty darn low these days.
Oh snap….The Mens is back.
Obama can’t be a Bimbo, mainly because he doesn’t have a snatch…but also because Palin already holds that title, multiple times over.
Runner up: Leeanne Menses Henry. Qualifications: Lame Bimbo who hates all things male.
Nominations: Probably any commentor who’s read her lame male-hating comments in the past year+.
GO AWAY Lee!
Sarah Palin is a lame whore who would love to see ALL women lose the right to choose, and see Gays and Lesbians off on their way to concentration camps. Fuck Sarah Palin, and anyone who, in their “right” mind, supports her.
Much Love
This is very alarming. How can someone get so dangerously close to the presidency on celebrity status alone?
It’s called the dumbing of Amerika. And what do you mean “so close to the presidency on celebrity alone?” How do you think Reagan got in? He was a movie star! He sat and posed for pictures and ate jelly beans while he turned the running of the country over to the fanatical right wing. He was an actor. They LOVED him. It scares me that these same fools would vote for this brain dead woman. Look where reaganomics got us. Imagine where she’d take us? God help us all.
Leanne:
Apparently Sarah has an intellectual equal in you, dear.
Combined, you might have an IQ that reaches 100.
But I would not bank on it. Unless, of course, when you take the test you get to have the answers written on your palm. [eyeroll]
Sarah Palin – dumb as a bag of hammers and twice as useless.
You go Joey, took the words right out of my mouth. But if she does run for president then we can be assured that Obama will have 4 more years. Provided the world doesn’t end in 2012.
My favorite part is she wrote “budget” cut first, then crossed it out and wrote “tax” — Does she really need to be reminded to talk about tax cuts? LOL
They need to expand education under the No Republican Left Behind bill
I read the comments made about this or that but in the end I can’t believe you folks are real. I have lived in this world for over 75 years and have seen many things come to be and many change and in most cases they have been changes for the good. The dumming down of the public in general is not one of the good.
