Palin Still Clueless About The Job

When a third-grader asked her what the VP does, Palin said: “That’s a great question, Brandon. And a vice president has a really great job because not only are they there to support the president’s agenda, they’re like the team member, the teammate to that president, but also they’re in charge of the United State Senate. So if they want …

Because Real Americans Totally Spend $150,000 On Clothes

Something must be terribly wrong with this story which claims that the RNC has spent $150,000 on clothes for Sarah “Real American” Palin. This can’t possibly be true, otherwise she’d be like the worst hypocrite ever! Sarah Palin, in a red leather jacket, waves as she steps on stage before a crowd at a baseball field in Grand Junction, Colo., …

Sarah Palin, Comic Book Villain

Sarah Palin made the cover of comic classic Tales From The Crypt this month as they go after her on the issue of book banning.

Palin: YOU Are Probably Anti-American

A gem from Sarah Palin on Friday: “We believe that the best of America is not all in Washington, D.C. We believe…we believe that the best of America is in these small towns that we get to visit, and in these wonderful little pockets of what I call the real America, being here with all of you hard working very …

The Palin Dudes

The NY Times notes that Palin rallies tend to be heavily male: The testosterone flows at many of her events. Head-banging guitar chords greet her: she entered a fund-raiser in North Carolina on Thursday to the decidedly un-dainty chords of AC/DC’s “Thunderstruck.” “That was kinda cool,” she marveled from the stage. Everyone laughed. The event raised $800,000. While there are …

Palin On SNL

As expected, last night Sarah Palin appeared on SNL. Her first bit was so-so, but she wasn’t as terribly wooden as some politicians have been. Palin had even less to do in the Weekend Update skit than in the opening, but (as always) Amy Poehler knocked it out of the park in a rap parody of Palin’s campaign. My name …

“Palin” By Red Symons

Through some technical wizardry, Australian radio DJ Red Symons used Sarah Palin debate clips to create this amusing (and actually, rather lovely) country/rock song about hooking up with John McCain. The word “fanny” translates less crudely for Americans, but it’s really a remarkable little piece of work. I’d love to hear a much longer version.

McCain To Letterman: “I Screwed Up”

John McCain made a wary return to Letterman last night after weeks of being ridiculed on the show for canceling his last appearance. And man, Letterman really socked it to him, asking tough questions on the Palin selection, on the threats against Obama shouted at McCain rallies, on the ridiculous Bill Ayers thing. And on and on. Letterman should have …

More Fun With McCain Supporters

As the McCain/Palin campaign continues to ramp up the name calling, their supporters are following their example. “Terrorist.” “Arab.” “Commie faggots.” This is by far the most venomous campaign in my lifetime. As these videos are making the national news, McCain has begun to try and quell the shouted insults at his rallies, but it’s too late. His campaign started …
