Drudge Retort: Red Meat for Yellow Dogs
Monday, September 01, 2008

This morning, an Alaskan named Steven Oaks posted a 1996 family video on YouTube that's purported to be Todd Palin talking to his daughter Bristol on the day he learned Sarah was elected mayor of Wasilla. "Your momma is a moose hunter," Todd Palin says in the unverified video. "Daddy's startin' to feel inadequate."

Geez, I'm an Obama story and I can't find a reason in the world why this should matter.

Man our politics has become a joke.

And yes, I lay the bulk of the blame on the Atwater/Rove school of campaining, so maybe the repubs should get what they deserve ... but MAN is this stuff stupid sometimes.

oops, not "story" ... "supporter". Too many Bud Limes last night,

The slander and libel never ends when the Queen-bee Democrat feels threatened.

Anyone who accuses me of attacking the Palins by posting this needs to explain how it makes them look bad.

Hey, #3, you just don't get it.

Cons get free rein to accuse their opponents of drug-dealing, treason, adherence to Communism, Islamic terrorism, Lesbianism, murder, theft, etc. but when we question one of their political choices they are OUTRAGED at how insensitive, cruel, evil, slanderous, libelous, etc. we are.

Let's remember who started this s***, and his initials are R*O*V*E.

They can hand it out but they can't take it.

Funny video!

"Miss Whale Blubber 1996 is now the mayor" - Todd Palin

LMAO!

McCain should have vetted Palin. There will be a plethora of facts to come about Palin that will make McCain look like the reckless doddering fool he was for picking a VP running mate he'd only talked to for half an hour 6 months ago.

Story out today Palin campaigned for the 'Bridge to Nowhere' while running for governor.

Her 'fiscal conservatism' is a sham.

FarmerJohnL

Slander and libel only apply when they aren't true.

Your man recklessly picked a real can of worms, dude.

That's quite an intimate video. If his wife becoming Mayor made him that uncomfortable, how does her becoming VP make him feel?

"Daddy and mommy said she'd go on to the City Council, make some extra money so she could get some health care. . . but now daddy's starting to feel, you don't know this word, Bristol, inadequate."

A conversation a lot of Americans probably have had when their spouse had to take on another job, more hours, something so they could get health insurance, proper care - make ends meet.

"I've been up for two hours."


BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

"She's a moose hunter with five kids, former mayor, and governor of Alaska. I'm starting to feel inadequate".

Barack Obama

If she doesn't get naked in the thing I'm not interested, she's hot and I wanna see here naked! NAKED I SAY, Moose huntin Buck Ass Naked!!!

IMO, the fact that his kid doesn't listen to him at all is a much bigger problem than his wife having a better job than he does.

It's hilarious. Smart of him to figure she'll get Health Insurance from her job. Presumably for all of the family, (though she is opposed to "health care for everybody", of course).

That Bristol, who must have only been 6 years old when she made this video, is one early developer. Cameraperson at 6, pregnant at 17. (Mom never told her about the evil of sex before marriage?)(Or birth control? No, that's evil, too)(Early withdrawal? Don't go there)

And maybe some of the "tougher" Hillaryites will enjoy that Mr. Palin is so totally pussy-whipped and "inadequate" about his wife being the Mayor. What did he think when she became Governor? Just made her pregnant again I guess to show who is "the boss". Now one feels the poor guy is going to have to have an even worse time than ever. A wife running with McCain and a pregnant daughter.

What did he do to deserve all this???

"Only in America" seems appropriate.

That video has to be fake.

Palin is libelling herself:

ST. PAUL (Reuters) - The 17-year-old daughter of Republican vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin is pregnant, Palin said on Monday in an announcement intended to knock down rumors by liberal bloggers that Palin faked her own pregnancy to cover up for her child.

Bristol Palin, one of Alaska Gov. Palin's five children with her husband, Todd, is about five months pregnant and is going to keep the child and marry the father, the Palins said in a statement released by the campaign of Republican presidential candidate John McCain.

Republicans are libelling Paulin:

"She's not prepared to be governor. How can she be prepared to be vice president or president?" said Lyda Green, the president of the State Senate, a Republican from Palin's hometown of Wasilla. "Look at what she's done to this state. What would she do to the nation?"

Another top Republican, John Harris, the speaker of the House, when asked about her qualifications for Veep, replied with this: "She's old enough. She's a U.S. citizen."


Palin is a trainwreck, it's like watching the Britney Spears 'Chaotic' so bad but at the same time you can't help but keep watching.

Anyone who accuses me of attacking the Palins by posting this needs to explain how it makes them look bad.

I guess you never watched much "All in the Family". It wasn't "real" life either, but it did its' damage. Must have been you were too busy drinking coffee and discussing Saul Alinsky with Hillary & Barack to watch prime-time comedy...

Saul Alinsky, Rules for Radicals - RULE 12: Pick the target, freeze it, personalize it, and polarize it." Cut off the support network and isolate the target from sympathy. Go after people and not institutions; people hurt faster than institutions. (This is cruel, but very effective. Direct, personalized criticism and ridicule works.)

This is sssssooooo rich! When will the baby be done cooking? I can't wait to see a shot of McCain and the vice president's bastard grand-child.

btw - I've seen pictures of Sarah Palin posing next to a downed caribou, but never a moose.

That's what we need: Lessons from Cons on how attack-dog poitics is now "bad."

But only when used against them.

Her Hubby is trailer park trash. That's what this tape tells you.

Hey, RCade. I promise you this. When McCain wins the presidency, well put lots of "West Wing" re-runs on TV so that you and your friends can play "pretend politics" in a Hollywood studio... that way nobody gets hurt implementing your "fantasy" progressive agenda.

I guess this is the "change" we're supposed to "believe" in... eh, Johnny boy?

Just how fuckin' stoopid is Sarah Palin?

Well, here's a sample of her wisdom in a written response to a written question:

Are you offended by the phrase Under God-- in the Pledge of Allegiance? Why or why not?
JB: No.
SP: Not on your life. If it was good enough for the founding fathers, its good enough for me and Ill fight in defense of our Pledge of Allegiance.
eagleforumalaska.blogspot.com

She actually believes -- even when given an opportunity to reflect on a written question and responding with a written answer, after all deliberate thought -- that the Founding Fathers wrote the Plege of Allegiance.

I'm definitely taking in the veep debate this fall.

She will, of course, do "better than expected" because by then people will think she's a combination of Albert Einstein and Steven Hawking if she can just put a sentence, verb, and noun together to make a three-word sentence.

But she'll still be then what she is now: a joke.

If it is true that the repulsicans didn't even vet Palin with the repuslican party in Alaska - oops. That is NOT good and if anyone thinks reporters are not digging like mad right now for the Motherlode - guess again. This could blow up big time. Think that has anything to do with the 'delay' in the repulsican con? Could be....the quickest withdrawal of a nomination ever? We'll see....

Bristol Palin--the first known case of Protestant Immaculate Conception.

"Anyone who accuses me of attacking the Palins by posting this needs to explain how it makes them look bad.

So did you enjoy "Unfit for Command" and "The Obama Nation: Leftist Politics and the Cult of Personality"? The Republicans continue the hypocrisy and to use double standards so the Democrats can't stoop down to their level and their candidates do not have to stand up to the same discrimination.

GOP Rule: If you start to sling mud during a Presidential Election campaign and you find you can't win the mud slinging contest start crying that your opponent is "slandering" you.

By the way last time I checked Barack Obama still IS NOT A MUSLIM yet that does not stop the lies on the right from claiming he is.

Heeyyyy...I thought our little leftist-socialist friends were supposed to be on the side of poor single moms, you know, the folks who deserve sympathy, tolerance, understanding and all that. In thousands of cases they would be trying to get the girl "benefits"....or an abortion. They wouldn't want her "punished" with this pregnancy.Could it be that they're all pissed because she plans to marry the father and have the child?

Tee hee hee...Shhhh, they might be screwin' up by getting a lot of women pissed and causing them to vote...GASP...against the Obamessiah.

Not when they're morons who think the Founding Fathers wrote the Pledge of Allegiance.

Tee hee hee, yerself.

This is awesome.

Fisherman's better! FISHERMAN'S BETTER!

It's funny, even if it's really him. It doesn't look like him. Guess we'll have to compare photos and voices.

Presented with Sarah Palin, a lightweight who makes Dan Quayle look like a 500-pound gorilla, the righties have to revert to idiotic statements about "socialists," etc.

The spirit of Joe McCarthy lives on.

As for Dan Quayle, he's probably a very happy man today. All those jokes, all that ridicule now shifts to the moosekiller from Alaska.

Larry Kudlow of CNBC's "Kudlow & Co." asked [Sarah Palin] about the possibility of becoming McCain's ticket mate.

She replied: "As for that VP talk all the time, I'll tell you, I still can't answer that question until somebody answers for me what is it exactly that the VP does every day?


Putin must be shitting himself.

I'm already tired of hearing her yammer about Eyerag and Eyeran. Does she say Eyetalians, too?

Doc- Wanna bet she says Ayrabs?

"Heeyyyy...I thought our little leftist-socialist friends were supposed to be on the side of poor single moms, you know, the folks who deserve sympathy, tolerance, understanding and all that.

What ever happened to abstinence? I guess abstinence is for people who are not the GOP's Vice Presidential candidate's daughter (more hypocrisy). Preach abstinence, when that does not work say you are going to let a 17 year old kid have her baby and make the guy who impregnated her marry her. Take that liberals! I would hate to be that kid, the words "Shotgun wedding" come to mind.

"Doc- Wanna bet she says Ayrabs?"
LOL

Taking that bet, Alexandrite, would be like trying to beat a Bourbon Street kid at a game of three-card monte.

That video has to be fake. - Doublestandard

It's much too good to be a fake. If that's a fake, it should be nominated for best scriptwriter Oscar.

"Putin must be shitting himself."

You're doing it AGAIN, Doc. And you have the gall to accuse others of coprophilia? Seek help...NOW!

"That video has to be fake. - Doublestandard


It's much too good to be a fake. If that's a fake, it should be nominated for best scriptwriter Oscar."

I still think it is a fake. Even if it is real it would be a real all time low if the actual Democratic Party exploits it. While I would not even debate IF the Republicans would use it against the Democrats, I believe the Democrats should separate themselves in some ways from the Republicans. Having something called "standards" in this case is one way they could do just that. Also neither Obama nor Biden should comment on Palin's daughter's pregnancy.

"I would hate to be that kid, the words "Shotgun wedding" come to mind."

Don't worry, you'll never find yourself in that situation. You would have to be in a heterosexual relationship for that to happen.

"I would hate to be that kid, the words "Shotgun wedding" come to mind."


"Don't worry, you'll never find yourself in that situation. You would have to be in a heterosexual relationship for that to happen."

More like I would have to be south of the Mason Dixon.

"I know I said You'd never be Mayor"

"Congratulations you're the Mayor"

Run that one through the sincerity meter...

Flatline!!

Then she makes him repeat it...

"You are the Mayor"

Kinda like "Who's yer daddy?" or sommat.

Sarah made Tom her biatch in that moment and li'l Bristol captured it all on tape.

Woo Hoo!

Actually, the tape is prolly a fake but it's still fun to watch.

Luff the part where he claims to have been up fer the last two hours but clearly has just gotten up.

"Private fisherman thoughts", indeed.

^_^

Be Well.

"More like I would have to be south of the Mason Dixon."

Again, not likely...as YOUR wedding would have to take place in CA or MA.

OOHRAH

If Palin were a man she'd have never gotten the nod.

McCain did not vet her properly. It was obvious pandering to Hillary supporters and the GOP base that will bite him in the buns.

"Dan Quayle in a Pony Tail"

Even members of her own party in Alaska didn't think she was qulaifed to be governor let alone the VP pick.

Her stories about fiscal conservatism, opposition to the "Bridege to Nowhere', and other claims acre coming apart faster than a poorly sewn shirt

But, as long as she's against a woman's choice and for guns she's Okey Dokey in the GOP's book... Nothing else matters.

It's become clear very quickly that Palin is holier than thou type who thinks she can tells others how to live their lives when she can't even manage her own family.

I don't care if she's got a unwed teen mom to be and her husband has inadequacy problems, what I have a problem with is when people like Palin, McCain, Craig and Foley try to make laws to protect us from their own failings.

I should say perceived failings, because I don't care if Palin's daughter is knocked up, her husband has a problem with a woman having some power. Live and let live.

only a couple of things one can take away from the video...
- the kid with the camera doesn't listen. she was told to stop videoing many times.
- the guy apparently smokes too much.
- and the best.... the veep candidate was ms whale blubber.
nothing else to harm nor hinder her.

and i agree with the above posting about her moose hunting buck naked.

all the best.

You know exactly what you are doing by putting up this video. Since the moment her name was announced by the McCain campaign here at the retort she's been called a shitty mother, not only for what she has done, but what she would have to do as Vice President... yourself included in those posts. With this video you're now trying to float the idea that she's a shit wife coming from an unhappy marriage.

The motives here have been obvious... what's sad is that none of you have the balls to admit it. When I say "Barack Hussein Obama" or bring up any of the other stuff that doesn't matter to the Presidency I admit why I'm doing it.

Grow some sack, act like a man and admit why you keep posting stories like this about Palin.

Actually it makes HIM rather sympathetic, and I think, since Rob brought up the subject, it's even more remarkable that Mr Palin still has any balls.


not unlike what Obama would receive.

Clever and original.

This video gives a lot of insight into the type of person Palin is. The shmuck on this video is her husband and lifelong partner. Wow. And now we learn she also has a pregnant 17 year old daughter?

I don't know about any of you, but I sure don't want her one heartbeat away from being President. Think about it.

Well step up Wobbie Crybaby and tell us why this joke needs to be vice president.

Come on, I'm pullin' fer ya!

He's much too "clever and original" for that Mr K

#68 | Posted by Mista Kurtz

I wouldn't say she needs to be Vice President. From what I've seen of her so far she seems like a good choice. She seems to have united the base behind McCain, that's good for him. She brought in a ton of money recently. McCain needed to shake up the race, and he certainly did that... according to Zogby, Obama got no bounce from his convention.

As far as who I would prefer running the country I would have to go with Biden because he's more prepped for the job on day 1, but she wouldn't have to step in as President anytime soon...

Now, why don't you explain how I'm a crybaby for just pointing out what RCade has been doing with this types of stories about Palin?


He's much too "clever and original" for that Mr K

#69 | Posted by sitdown

We can't all be so smart and refreshing as to change the "R" in Rob to "W" sitdown... Mista_Kurtz is a man among boys in cleverness...

"Bastard grand child" Uh huh.

Before you start with that angle, you might want to realize that you have a bastard on the top of your ticket too. Or--hasn't that come up yet? That Barack's mother was 17 when he was conceived, and that the father was a married man of 24?

Glass houses. Stay home.

i hope this video proves to be authentic. i want to hear her response when dhe is asked how her familt feels about her nomination

Anybody who believes this video is authentic is an unmitigated retard.

o please... this thing looks tooooo fake... no way.

Now, why don't you explain how I'm a crybaby for just pointing out what RCade has been doing with this types of stories about Palin?

#70 | Posted by Robby DEAR isn't a crybaby!

happy?

once again, btw, the fact that so many of you actually believe this crap goes a long way toward explaining W's second term.

i just hope the tape is authentic and the husband blames macain for its release and beats the shit out of him because now his snowmobile racing buddies will think he's a woos

So, is it true that Obama campaign manager David Plouffe's inspiration for launching the 2008 Obama campaign came on a stormy night in 2005 while watching a re-reun of a 1970's western?

Jes' wondrin. It's got a familiar "air" about it...

Of course, when Plouffe pitched the idea to DNC chairman Howard Dean and the executive candidate selection committee, the reaction was pretty much as expected.

But eventually, the idea began to catch on... even amongst Clinto supporters.

and in a closed door meeting with donors, the decision to go ahead was made...

..once they hit upon a means of implementing it...use the Drudge Retort to sell the idea of a black president to the netroots community...

...and the rest is history...

Clever spoof. Funny

AU,

Yes, it was pretty funny, actually.


The lighting was so bad that it was extremely difficult to clearly make out facial features. The only thing I saw was that his hairline was considerably receded when compared with pictures I've seen of Palin's hubbie.

Perhaps he wears a toupe?

That was hilarious! Private Fisherman thoughts!

Your Momma is a Moose humter!

Oh boy this is gonna be fun!

That is some bad acting. I could tell its a fake in the first 25 seconds. People don't usually call their children by their first name and he did not give the person on the other end of the phone time to respond to his questions. Acting 101.

This is definately a fake. just like Sarah.

If it is genuine, we will know soon enough. And vice versa.

The word "Alleged" wasn't placed in the title to this thread for NO reason...

Meanwhile, where is that alleged Nobama BJ/Coke link YouTube when you need it...

Based on what the guy in the video says I don't doubt this is a very funny spoof.

Bristol would have been filming this when she was 5 (2008, 1996, 17).
One heck of a steady hand and eye for shot composer.

Todd was a heck of a more worn out looking 12 years ago than he is today.

It's a fake, but it was fun!

I never said the video was real, but I obviously thought it might be or I wouldn't have written about it at all. Andrew Halcro watched it at my request this evening and emailed this response: "Not only fake but insulting."

Ugh. I'm disappointed that these were not Todd Palin's "private fisherman thoughts." I don't get kids today and their crazy Youtubes.

"what did momma tell you about aiming that camera at daddy in bed?"

god bless youtube and people with too much free time

Ummm FAKE. Hilarious, but fake. That dude is OLD.

The snot suckage at the beginning is awesome.

And the award goes to....

"Private fisherman thoughts." *chuckle* I am SO using that for, like, the rest of my life.

Also, Pallin is still HORRIBLE. I actually dont know who scares me more. Bomb bomb Iran Hothead McCain or someone that voted for a hockey stadium for a town of 9000, but wouldn't shell out for the expansion of the town's library (and doesn't want proper sex ed in school and obviously didnt teach her daughter about birth control or cooter control). Shiny happy candy shell but chewy scary inside. Bleh. Wow, she can kill and stew a moose. Moose stew tasty? yes. Cooking it a qualification for VP? nah uhn.

Lol, surprised I didn't notice this earlier.

That's a MIGHTY neat cellphone for 1996. Looks like a flip-phone to me. It doesn't, however, appear to be a Star-Tac.

Techno-nerd FAIL!

"Private fisherman thoughts." *chuckle* I am SO using that for, like, the rest of my life.

Spud too.

It's already hit the memestream with a big splash.

Luffs it.

"And BTW if its not an attack, then what's the fucking relevance of it?"

~Wobbles

Aha, so in Rob's twisted cul de sac of a mind the only type of articles or commentary that have any relevance are those that contain an attack of some kind.

Does kinda explain Rob's postage ...in a strange, sad sorta way.

Be Well.

Amazing that this is even news. But look at the source.

Note sure what the point is of posting a video from YouTube that is fake. What's next, RCade? Ad banners selling bigfoot gorilla suits? I think you belittle your own site by linking to this crap... there's plenty of true stuff to pursue.

Exactly. Like this:
www.youtube.com

The guy in the Palin video is Norm Augustinus. Captions have been added to the, "Sarah Palin's Husband exposed," video.

R-Cade: It's a fake, so pelase pull the plug on this thread.

(But, the following report on Palin's iron fist apprears legit: www.washingtonindependent.com)

It's plainly obvious to everybody that she is a horrible choice. She makes Dan Quayle look like an intellectual giant. She's got more skeletons in her closet than anybody. She's not intelligent, not accomplished, and not qualified.

Just like Bush, she's too stupid to be President. Let's try to avoid making the same mistake twice.

Looks like RCade took the "low road."

Obama thinks you're sleazy.

Film is off YouTube. It was even too full of loser vibes for them!

Excellent job showing what gullible mooks you all are. Ha ha ha.

RCade shows he is nothing more than a garbage spewer and a pathetic punk.

I think if this BS continues out of control, someone will pay a very high price.

Sorry I have to give you a B- : Lack of footnotes, generalizations, hyperbole, and ad hominem arguments, all with no true thesis developed. Please rewrite and resubmit and I will be happy to re-grade it.

On a brighter note, your fantasy short story in the "Levee" thread, in which you regaled us about the levees being blown up in 2005 during Katrina, was pure tin-foil-hat heaven. Nice job. I thoroughly enjoyed it. A+.

The Todd Palin video has not been removed from YouTube-in fact it's being featured.
Someone told me this guy is gonna be interviewed by Larry King?
Huh?
