Drudge Retort: Red Meat for Yellow Dogs
Thursday, June 25, 2009

Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin is offended again, this time of a doctored photo published on an Alaskan liberal blog that pastes a radio host's head on Trig Palin's body. "Recently we learned of a malicious desecration of a photo of the Governor and baby Trig that has become an iconic representation of a mother's love for a special needs child," Palin spokeswoman Meghan Stapelton said in a statement provided to CNN. "The mere idea of someone doctoring the photo of a special needs baby is appalling."

Trig that has become an iconic representation of a mother's love for a special needs child

In her own mind, I suppose.

The only "iconic" image of Trig that I can think of is the photo of him in his sister's arms at the GOP convention. Obviously, she loves him and was holding him as carefully as a child can. Also obviously, none of the adults present -- who had planned this exploitative photo-op -- bothered to notice that the only months-old baby was being held with his eyes looking up into the very, very bright stage lights for god knows how long.

Maybe I notice these things because 1) I don't much care for bright lights and 2) I see parents pushing their kids in baby carriages in the park all the time, sometimes with the poor kids staring directly into the sun.

Personally, I think the mere idea of someone using a special needs baby as a political prop is appalling, but that's just me.

She wants offensive doctored photos? Careful there guvner. those can get pretty explicit.

"Personally, I think the mere idea of someone using a special needs baby as a political prop is appalling, but that's just me."

I suppose you think that someone using their race as a political prop is appalling too. I won't hold my breath.

using their race as a political prop

Kinda hard to hide your race.

The baby can stay at home with the nurse.

I, too, am shocked and outraged. A Downs Syndrome baby could never host a radio show...



....or could he?


Man, Palin's really working hard to be offended these days. A PhotoShop image on a little-known liberal blog is enough to merit an official response from her office?

She's gotta keep her "name recognition" somehow.....

Kinda hard to hide your race


True, but I think Joe was referring to someone emphasizing their ethnic background and using that as a political prop rather than letting their experience speak for itself.

Not much mainstream cover of this. Imagine if they super-imposed someone's face on a monkey instead...

Oh wait, NY times did something like that...

Yeah she loves her special needs child, thats why she endangered it's life.

The blogger is an ass.

The cartoon of the dead chimp was done by an ass as well.

someone emphasizing their ethnic background and using that as a political prop

Who did he put at risk?

Carting any baby around to make stage appearances on a national political campaign is borderline abusive.

The blogger is an ass.

Because she put a talk radio host's head on a baby's body? How is that remotely offensive?

So, to answer Joe's question directly, I do not think using one's background and race is off limits in a political campaign.

I wouldn't put it in the category of a "prop" however.

A prop is a physical item used on stage to further a narrative.

I suppose technically, little Trig was part of the "cast" but that is no more defensible.

Because she put a talk radio host's head on a baby's body? How is that remotely offensive?

Get real, rcade. Because children who are not themselves public figures should be left out of political mockery. Rip the shit out of Sarah or her oldest daughter, I don't give a fuck except it is trite and passe. But I admit they are fair game for those los estupidos who can't come up with something original. But leave the baby alone, for christ sake. I can only think you are being obtuse, rcade, if you pretend there is nothing wrong with this.

The child is now damned with history. I mean that if Trig ever grows up to be cognizant, and he learns of this, how can he ever live it down? This is wrong.

"I can only think you are being obtuse..."

Ha!

You oughtta know, goat-boy...yer the Drudge's hands-down king of "obtuse".

You oughtta know, goat-boy...yer the Drudge's hands-down king of "obtuse".

So that's all you have to the thread?

Figures.

The people are outraged by the Palin creature. t goes both ways!

Get real, rcade. Because children who are not themselves public figures should be left out of political mockery.

The picture wasn't mocking the kid. It was mocking the talk radio host who was PhotoShopped onto the baby's body.

The mind boggles at how far people will stretch things to find offense when Palin is involved.

I'm worried that even dim-witted ditto-heads will begin to realize that someone so easily, frequently and publicly offended should NEVER be in control of nuclear weapons.

I really want so see her on that republican ticket with Huckleberry or "The Newt" in 2012. So calm down Sarah! Don't get so dog-gone mavericky over trivial matters!

It was mocking the talk radio host who was PhotoShopped onto the baby's body.

I don't care who it mocks. A politician's family (again, unless public figures themselves) should be let be. It's funny how everyone seems to agree to that except the left when it comes to Palin's retarded child

The mind boggles at how far people will stretch things to find offense when Palin is involved.

The mind boggles at how many degrees seperation from Palin one goes to get a 'news' story. Does Palin's daughter's boyfriend's mother ring a bell?

Trig isn't retarded

And it wasn't Palin's daughter's boyfriend's mother.

Jeez....

I don't care who it mocks. A politician's family (again, unless public figures themselves) should be let be.

The talk radio host isn't part of her family.

The mind boggles at how many degrees seperation from Palin one goes to get a 'news' story. Does Palin's daughter's boyfriend's mother ring a bell?

Yeah. In retrospect that wasn't worth putting on the front page just because the media was running with it. My mistake.

But leave the baby alone, for christ sake. I can only think you are being obtuse, rcade, if you pretend there is nothing wrong with this.

What if they had used a picture of Palin holding a random baby at a campaign event? Would that too be mocking the child? Or is it becaus Trig is a "special needs" child and therefore easy sympathy points to score?

I'm outraged by her outrage.

"To say that the newspaper press represent public opinon is to administer insult to intelligent men. It is the property of speculators, political leaders, large contractors, & railway directors."

Karl Marx

Another "poor little me" moment for St. Sarah, Our Lady of Perpetual Victimhood.

I hope you're not serious.

Anyone who thinks it was the child being made fun of in the doctored photo is an idiot. it was the rightwing radio show host. That is about as obvious as can be. Only douche rightwingers looking for outrage are pretending otherwise.

Any legal issues with taking somebody else's photos and photoshopping them?

My mind boggles a little at how many "spokespeople" the Governor of Alaska seems to have available for such events. What else do they do? Plow the driveway?

Sarah Palin - the gift that keeps on giving.

Any legal issues with taking somebody else's photos and photoshopping them?

Probably not. It's a transformative work that was created to make a political comment. The courts generally support that kind of stuff.

I can understand why Palin would be upset about the image but what I don't get is why should would say anything about it. Almost no one would know about if she would have just let it roll off her back. That blog only gets about 2,000 hits a day. That is nothing. It's not even in the top 1 Million sites for traffic according to Alexa.

If Palin wants to be taken seriously she needs to stop being so petty. Getting in fights with late night TV shows, her grandbaby's daddy and no-name bloggers is not the way to be taken seriously.

she was supposed to be 'tough' that's what mcinsane said. poor little girl what she wanted then she found out it's not what she wanted.

I feel so bad and I want to feel good. I want some milk - make it stop

I hope you're not serious.

Well, I never had one of the little bastards.

Maybe they aren't as fragile as they look.

Sounds like Palin has more in common with her Islamicbrethren than she likes to admit. If anyone says anything even remotely negative about my family(allah) I will piss, moan, bitch, gripe and make a big scene so everyone knows who I am!!

Here is my new bumper sticker for her next run at anything in the USA....Palin, she's not contiguous...


LM

It would make more sense to show the Gorilla lady with the two chimps. Isn't photo shop wonderful?

We have a president now along with the first that are offended by the U.S., Rush, Hannity, Fox News, and a host of other people. Yes, Obama is easily offended and that is one reason the left media carefully walks on glass for him.

Yeah!

MRS. PALIN is worried about what ONE libtard shitposter/blogger somewhere in the great uncharted nethers of Alaska is photoshopping..?

Meanwhile, the offending image has since been taken offline (?), so we can't even see how decent/shitty a job this guy did with his photochopping...(PLEASE post a link to an original photochop; I'd honestly like to see it!)

...in the meantime...

The rest of the internets laughing at Sarah! goes unmentioned???

Who is she paying to do P.R., anyway???!?

Encyclopedia Dramatica is roughly #5000 overall when it comes to internets traffic.

As long as the guv'nuh is going to cry foul, doesn't she at least have bigger fish to fry???

There are any number of ways of portraying the talk show host as childish without using Trig Palin's image. Do you really believe "special needs infant" wasn't part of the mockery?

Just imagine the kind of shit she'd have to put up with if she were actually relevant in some way.

Yes, repubs, please make this psycho-bitch your candidate in '12, please.

It's the height of hypocrisy for Sarah Palin to parade her family before us, and the complain when we notice them.

It's about as unclassy as when John Kerry mentioned Cheney's lesbian daughter. Other peope's families should be left alone. If they make drunken asses of themselves, I reserve the right to voice my disapprobation, but basically, who cares? It's irrelevant. It ranks right up there with whose pussy the President is shoving a cigar up.

If Sarah Palin had any decency, she would have rejected out-of-hand the whoring out of her retardo-baby to the "special needs" vote. And I apologize for using such coarse language, but I cannot find words offensive enough to describe her parenting.

Her life is the embodiment of White Privelege; that she can be a Governor makes me wonder what Schwarzenegger saw in the job.

The photoshop was an obvious attempt at painting the rightwing radio host as a retard - and in the process making fun of Trig Palin's retardedness.

What in the hell do you know about her parenting?

Maybe she is a shitty mom, but you don't know her. You've never met her. You have zero idea as to how dedicated (or not) a mother she is.

One thing Sarah Palin needs to learn if she EVER wants to work in the spotlight - thick-skin. She needs to ignore the nastiness that is hurled at her.

By addressing this shit she allows herself to be drug through the mud.

If she was a better person she might not get all this negative attention.

Precisely. And THAT is exactly what the story is about. It's not about the kid, it's about the psyco-bitch's response to a stupid photo montage on an obscure blog (actually, the link I clicked was to Photobucket, making it one dumb, anonymous pic out of close to 8billion). How would she deal with it if she were actually sitting in DC drawing attention to herself all day, every day?

Why is this unremarkable woman so fascinating? I mean, drop the political sides for a sec. Neither her party or mine sees anything in her, but she is always in the news.
Is nothing else worth thinking about, even if to celebrate Michael Jackson finally facing the best jury?

Funniest part of the whole thing:

"Stapelton also suggested President Obama should speak out against such behavior from liberal activists."

This woman actually thinks the President of the united states should stick his nose in some playground cat-fight?

*looking at watch*

I see it's time for CS's nightly tirades. I didn't know it was getting so late.

Poor little itsy bitsy fantasizes about someone stalking him since no one else pays attention to him IRL.

Why is this unremarkable woman so fascinating?

Two words: Train Wreck.

Personally I think Sarah Palin is the retardo in the picture buy I also agree that there are other ways to mock a right-wing bloviator than using a baby (any baby) in a photoshop.

So that part is just pure lack of class.

That aside, Palin and right wing radio have become the lowest common denominator in the Republican party and thus easy targets.

Actually, I think she was more outraged as a mother, in which case she's right. Any parent would feel the same way.

If she was outraged as a politician, then she's dead wrong. She's the one who painted the target on their little backs.

She's the one who painted the target on their little backs.

I disagree. What would have happened if she had never mentioned Trig? I'll tell you. The left would've had a field day declaring that she was ashamed of her retarded child and that's why she never mentioned him.

So she let's the world know she has a retarded child and you claim she painted a target on him. Damned if you do, damned if you don't. But such is the filth of politics

What in the hell do you know about her parenting?

Not much, I guess. Only the stuff she's strutted across the stage.

First she was the proud mother of an unwed pregnant 16 year old daughter.

Then the proud mother of a newborn (wow, you'll be a grandmother a year after you had your last kid) child with Down Syndrome, scoring big political points with the swelling ranks of mothers of "special needs" children.

After the election, she was the proud mother of a son who joined the military's elite Photo-Op unit.

Most recently she's the proud mother of another daughter. (Five kids in total, can you believe it?) Anyway, this time it's 13-year old, and not pregnant, so far as we know. This poor teen was the subject of a vicious and heartless joke where she was raped by the New York Yankees. (The Mets, outraged by the attack, immediately rushed to her aid. They offered her a job as pitching coach.)

I don't know anything about the fifth kid. I don't want to either. This woman is clearly UFO-level crazy. Her children are... props. She needs Torque or whatever his name is to die in Afghanistan, and she will be on the ticket in 2012.

Then the proud mother of a newborn (wow, you'll be a grandmother a year after you had your last kid) child with Down Syndrome,

She should be less proud of the one with the birth defect?

Anyway, this time it's 13-year old, and not pregnant, so far as we know.

Translation: "We hope she gets knocked up, too"

"We hope she gets knocked up, too"
Who's "we?" Am I a member of the Quiverfull crowd now?

So she let's the world know she has a retarded child and you claim she painted a target on him. Damned if you do, damned if you don't. But such is the filth of politics
That's not what happened at all. We all know John McCain has an adopted "black" baby. Nobody thought it was politically relevant... until Karl Rove came along.

Actually, I think she was more outraged as a mother, in which case she's right. Any parent would feel the same way.
No doubt. But being outraged as a parent isn't something you issue a press release about.

What does Sarah Palin plan to do about offensive images of her family? Hold her breath until people stop? First Amendment, bitch. Suck it.

She should be less proud of the one with the birth defect?
From where on earth did you draw that inference???

She should capitalize on his birth defect by telling "special needs" voters they will have "one of them" in the office of the Vice President? She should tout her "experience" as a special needs mom when she's only been on the job for less than a year?

Every time Sarah Palin makes the news, it's because she has once again found a way to thrust her family in our face. It's smarmy beyond belief.

Who's "we?"

The left. And please don't insult my intelligence by saying the left wouldn't be tickled pink to have another Palin daughter get knocked up.

That's not what happened at all.

Bullshit. The press and many of the left on this blog have made fun of "the retard" referring to the baby.


From where on earth did you draw that inference???

???

You, of course

Then the proud mother of a newborn (...) child with Down Syndrome, scoring big political points with the swelling ranks of mothers of "special needs" children.
Are you going to say this wasn't said with sarcasm? Please. . . .

I wasn't aware she was the one who did the photoshop job.

Interesting. Do a photoshop job involving her handicapped child, then feign outrage over it. Now that's cunning.

The child has Down's Syndrome.

Disagree all you want but in my opinion it didn't have to be EITHER extreme.

In fact, extremes are very bad examples when you're trying to make a point because neither applies.

Sarah Palin used her Special Needs kid because she thought it was going to get her the big applaud from women voters. Stealing votes from Hillary, so to speak.

She was wrong. But it doesn't change the fact that she tried.

There were many other ways she could have acknowledged the baby AND earned some respect in the process.

Hauling this baby around on a campaign trail isn't one of them. It made her look like a shameless politician instead of a devoted mother.

So yes, in that respect, she set the baby up as a target for the classless among us.

Disagree all you want but in my opinion it didn't have to be EITHER extreme.

You are certainly entitled to do so, but I understand how filthy the institution of politics can be. I maintain that keeping her child hidden would have been speculative fodder for her shame of the child.

Just as you feel she used the child as a prop to woo sympathetic moms, I feel the absence of the child would've been used as a prop by her detractors to 'prove' her shame of him.

There is a huge difference from hiding the child and using him as a stage prop.

A few simple family photos and a personal interview with her and the child, say with Kati Couric, would have sufficed.

You are losing another argument GoatTroll. I loved how you went from a single Mars launch to multiple launches to try to win the last argument. You had to dig up Bush requested propoganda off NASA for that one.

True. But in Sarah Palin's case, parenting a Special Needs baby WAS part of her political profile.

She couldn't seem to separate one from the other . . . or didn't want to.

It looks like she still can't. Thus, the press release and the outrage.


You are losing another argument GoatTroll.


Another
losing argument, furrytroll? LOL. I suppose you failed to see the link that NASA's plans has them launching the Mars mission from earth, not from a vehicle built in space as you maintained?

I agree that posting a nice family portrait with the baby, for all to see, would have been a better choice.

As would a cozy interview in their home on prime time.

It never had to be the way Palin handled it - except by choice.

It takes as much if not more energy to get mass into terrestrial orbit a little bit at a time (more because more missions are require) vs all at once. You do understand HS physics, don't you? The extra missions would cost much more, too. You do understand basic economics, don't you?

This is your quote asshole. Supporting a one shot launch. Now you switch your argument. Fucking loser.

Tune in to the new TV show....Sarah Palin is Outraged By....and each week it's a new "Outrage."
It's the hilarious new sit com filmed everywhere except Alaska.

"Palin Outraged"

As a political stance it's about the only one left for her. She's poorly informed, has no ideas, and can only handle the softest of softball questions pitched at her by an in-the-tank "reporter."

What does my claiming that NASA's plans do not include launching a manned Martian mission from space as you maintain have to do with my quote above?

You made an erroneous statement. You said the ship would have to be launched from space. I proved you wrong with a link from NASA. Deal with the fact that you are wrong and quit deflecting to a none related quote.

No, not at all. Check out my past posts and you will see I've been quite vociferous against people calling Trig a 'retard'

I doubt if Trig's medical records are on-line and I don't feel link sifting through links looking for quotes. If you want to believe that Trig is not retarded even though most Down's kids are, that's fine with me.

Face it, the left can't get enough of Palin. Goat is right on, if she did not bring the baby on stage you libs would claim she was embarrased, she brings him on stage and he is a prop. You say she is an idiot,no experience, a bad mother,etc,etc,etc and main street media joins in. You say Barry has no experience and you are a RACIST! Talk about a prop.

The lefties love this shit. It takes the focus off the Assemblies Cap and Trade vote/debaucle.

FISHPAW

You're back to the either/or thing again.

Neither extreme applies in this case. Extremes are bad examples.

Translation-I'm talking out my ass again.

What I want are facts not the ramblings of some needy,middle aged loser that spends all his free time on the Retort trying to convince others how smart he is and how great his life is.

"You made an erroneous statement. You said the ship would have to be launched from space. I proved you wrong with a link from NASA. Deal with the fact that you are wrong and quit deflecting to a none related quote."

No GoatTroll, your argument was for a single vehicle. Remember asshole?

Having assemply in orbit is a long term solution.

The quick and dirty solution offered up o NASA's site does nothing to invalidate it.

Why can't you stick to your original points loser?

Palin has a base in the Republican party that loves her. She could have spent the next several years growing her stature by cultivating that base with the occasional major speech and fund-raising effort for other Republicans, and by the time the 2012 race came around she'd be as well-positioned as anybody to get her party's nomination.

Instead, she's made herself look progressively smaller with these kinds of publicity stunts. There's no way you pick a fight with a no-name blogger and come out of it looking good. Palin seems to have a sense of personal aggrievement that's as big as Nixon's was, and her desire to "get back" at her enemies is making her look petty and foolish.

She actually had her press office declare that a photo of her was "iconic."

Palin is the perfect example of a politician who wasn't ready for the big time when she was elevated to the national stage.

I suppose you think that someone using their race as a political prop is appalling too. I won't hold my breath.

How is that remotely offensive?

The false outrage the right trots out regarding anything palin makes it so.

Because children who are not themselves public figures should be left out of political mockery. Rip the shit out of Sarah or her oldest daughter, I don't give a fuck except it is trite and passe. But I admit they are fair game for those los estupidos who can't come up with something original. But leave the baby alone, for christ sake. I can only think you are being obtuse, rcade, if you pretend there is nothing wrong with this.

Well she is playing the victim card quite well. Anything to keep her smarmy face in the spotlight I suppose. Those long lonely days up in Mooseville without the glow of the media spotlight must really be taking it's toll on her by now.

Not to mention all the free clothes she no longer gets.

Twinpac, the point many are making here is that Palin gets what she deserves by exposing her child to politics no matter how nasty it gets. The point I am making is that that nastyness would come from the left if she exposed the child and if she didn't expose the child. It is the double standard that the libs are so good at.

You have zero idea as to how dedicated (or not) a mother she is.

Yet if she never exposed the child there would be no photograph of him to photoshop.

I always thought Rush and others were way out of bounds for saying things about Chelsea Clinton, and felt the same way when the Bush girls were made the object.

I guess I was naive, though--then and now. But if Palin's kids are fair game, then so are Obama's.

And if she hadn't, libtards like yourself would have said, "Is she embarrassed that she has a Down Syndrome child? How come we never see him in public?"

And so on. Kids should be left alone. But if the gloves are off, I'm pretty sure that it's just not the libbies that can figure out Photoshop.

RiR,

It was a little different with the Bush girls, they were adults and put themselves in the spotlight with their shenanigans.

Being the child of a POTUS is an burden that they had to bear, they should have realized it or been schooled about the consequences of their actions.

Bullshit, Palin had the kid with her on stage more often than Buffalo Bob had his hand stuck up Howdy Doodies ass. She used the kid a s prop for her "Mothering" qualities.

People are not attacking or making fun of the child they are attacking Palin for using the kid for political gains.

No that is your pathetic spin of the thread. Read it again Sparky. So we have the left joking about 14 year olds being knocked up and now using a baby to create fodder. Look for the left to use a bear or elk for their next picture wearing leather.

I have read a lot here about the faux outrage offered up by conservatives. Yet the dems forget about their reaction to the cop shooting a monkey in a cartoon. (Remember the closest thing to a reason to be offended would be by those who recognise that there is a monkey in the white house.). There was no intent in that cartoon, unlike the photoshopped photo. Now, if someone would photoshop images from planet of the apes and the meeting with the Queen I might have a different feeling. Also, before you. Get too high and mighty about someone being pregnent before being married, remember that it was not a republican the coined the phrase "who yo babydaddy?". Of course, if you look down on those folks for breeding with impunity, you is rasis.

Earlier this month Biegel filed an ethics complaint against Palin for wearing a jacket made by a company that sponsored her husband a snow mobile racer to a public event. An investigator ruled Palin had not acted wrongly and the Alaska governor accused Biegel "asinine political grandstanding."

This worthless skank gets national attention? Or should I say the left gives this skank status?

This thin-skinned cunt doesn't have the character to be president.

This thin-skinned cunt doesn't have the character to be president.

She should simply chalk it up to the vast leftwing conspirasy. Play the scorned woman? Look how it elevated the Hildabeast.

"dipshits cannot field a candidate that will win on the issues."
Like change? That was a real issue wasn't it?

Why are the dems so afraid of Palin that they have to continue to trash her?

And Obama was trotting out his wife and kids at every available opportunity, too. That's politics.

Obama didn't trot his kids out all the time during the campaign. They stayed in school back in Chicago and only appeared at the convention and in one magazine cover shoot, which he said immediately afterward was a mistake.

Palin, on the other hand, kept several of her kids out of school from the time she was picked until election day. She intentionally brought her young daughter Piper onto the ice during a Philadelphia Flyers game, knowing she'd face a hostile crowd, and told people it would keep them from booing her.

Read the story numbnuts and then try to make a semi intelligent post.

SNIPER

I'm a Dem and I'm not afraid of Sarah Palin.

I just don't want her or any member of her family near the objects d'art in the White House.

I'm afraid some of them would end up in a pawn shop.

She intentionally brought her young daughter Piper onto the ice during a Philadelphia Flyers game, knowing she'd face a hostile crowd, and told people it would keep them from booing her.

Maybe her daughter is a hockey fan. Palin was asked to drop the puck by the team officials. Right? Is it possible Palin was joking about using her daughter to curb boos? You know like wearing a fucking Devils jersey in Philly?

Is it possible Palin was joking about using her daughter to curb boos?

She told a fundraiser beforehand she was going to send Piper out on the ice in a Flyers' jersey, and did exactly that.

From Fox News: "The GOP Vice-Presidential nominee said at an earlier fundraiser that she would stop some of the booing from the rowdy Philadelphia fans by putting her seven year old daughter, Piper in a Flyers jersey. She said, 'How dare they boo Piper!'"

www.nowpublic.com

She's an odd bird.

Let's correct the headline to be honest, shall we?


Palin Outraged Headline Possibly Not About Her

From Fox News: "The GOP Vice-Presidential nominee said at an earlier fundraiser that she would stop some of the booing from the rowdy Philadelphia fans by putting her seven year old daughter, Piper in a Flyers jersey. She said, 'How dare they boo Piper!'"


You can't see the pun in that statement?

She's found a niche for herself as a republican white woman caricature of Al Sharpton.

cue Palin: "I'm outraged"

So let me get this straight...

Sarah Palin, admittedly, overreacts to a couple of jokes aimed square at her children and she's an embarassment. Yet, Barack Obama makes snide, unprompted comments about Fox News and Rush Limbaugh and that's not an embarassment for the candidate of change and unity - the one who was going to bring a new tone of civility to Washtington?

Got it, just trying to make sure I understand lefty logic.

"Yet, Barack Obama makes snide, unprompted comments about Fox News and Rush Limbaugh"

When was that?

First she was the proud mother of an unwed pregnant 16 year old daughter.

What did you expect her to do - try and hide the fact that her daughter is pregnant? Isn't you lefites who always lecture everyone that teens are going to have sex, therefore we can't inform the parents if they get an abortion and we must give away free condoms starting at the K-5 level? Kids make mistakes. And not just Bristol Palin. Lots of teens have sex and subsequently get pregnant. Not every instance is a product of bad parenting.


Then the proud mother of a newborn (wow, you'll be a grandmother a year after you had your last kid) child with Down Syndrome, scoring big political points with the swelling ranks of mothers of "special needs" children.

The left is mostly pissed because she didn't abort the little retard.


After the election, she was the proud mother of a son who joined the military's elite Photo-Op unit.

So, I guess she should be ashamed of him for being in the military?


For some reason much of my post deleted.

So, I'll just say that the "UFO-crazy assessment" is plain stupid. She's not crazy in any way. That is just a stupid leftie talking point that is so absurd it obfuscates legitimate criticisms of her.

When was that?

#129 | Posted by Danforth

He's done so on more than one occasion.

Did you seriously miss it?

"He's done so on more than one occasion. Did you seriously miss it?"

The only one I was aware of was when he was meeting privately with Republican leaders, and one of the attendees - not Obama - then told the press.

What other time(s)?

One was fairly recent - during an interview he made some snide, unprompted remarks about Fox News. He, and his surrogates, have made countless remarks about Limbaugh to the degree of creating a talking point that Limbaugh runs the RNC. That little diddy started with the O-admin and it was planned, it didn't just 'happen'.

I am surprised you didn't catch the comments Obama made about Fox - but, we can't catch everything.

www.dailyfinance.com

Obama, who vented his frustration with Fox News during an interview on CNBC yesterday.

"I've got one television station that is entirely devoted to attacking my administration," Obama told John Harwood, who had asked him how he felt about coverage of his administration. "That's a pretty big megaphone. You'd be hard-pressed if you watched the entire day to find a positive story about me on that front."

He's got almost the entire media serving as his lap-dog and he bitches about the one that has the audacity to be critical of him?

With regard to being pregnent out of wedlock...
1. If it is now fair game to ridicule the behavior, we can again point out the nost confusing day among obama's people is " who be my daddy day?". Interestingly, obama's mama had to paly that game...she was pregnant before she married. He may not really know who da daddy. Afterall girls like his mama are seldom exclusive as to who they give it out.I think some here have used the word "skank" to describe girls of higher repute.

A lot of people on the left do think Obama makes himself smaller by taking on Rush Limbaugh and Fox News. But last time I checked, Limbaugh and that network were significantly better known than some liberal blogger from Alaska. They're not quite the same thing.

Who's Palin going to take on next -- me? Pleasepleasepleasepleaseplease

The rest of your #134 is hardly what you hinted at. Where was the "snide" part? And where is his direct attack on Limbaugh?

Bullshit.

Fair and Balanced...my ass.

How about Limbaugh and Obama are both big league players and it is even. Palin versus some unknown Alaskan blogger is hardly a fair match. Letterman had a national forum he could use to either counter or concede her point, but this blogger doesn't. It is a giant mismatch and she should have let it go.

Besides, her outrage has created more attention to the photo than some anonymous Alaskan blog ever could.

Where was the "snide" part?

How would you characterize it?


And where is his direct attack on Limbaugh?

The "direct" attack came for one of his higher-up officials. It was clearly planned - not spontaneous.

He's influential and GOP politicians are careful not to anger his base - which is also mostly the GOP base. That is a FAR-cry from Limbaugh "running" the GOP.

I agree that she sould have let it go, but not because it's a mismatch.

The legacy media and the left hate her with an unbridled passion. All she is doing is encouraging more baseless attacks on her and her family because it's obvious that she's sensitive to it. If she has aspirations for the national stage she'd better develop a thick-skin real quick.

No GoatTroll, your argument was for a single vehicle. Remember asshole?

Yes. A single manned vehicle with supplies launched ahead. I clearly stated that. Do I need to link to my post on that, too, and rub your nose in your lies again?

No one can get elected while going against him. There's not a single other Republican you could say that about.

In all honesty you have it all wrong, they love her,as do the comedians.

No one can get elected while going against him. There's not a single other Republican you could say that about.

So what? that means he has influence.

If Limbaugh runs the GOP then point to specific policies or bills written by the GOP that Limbaugh directed. The last time I heard him, he did nothing except bitch and moan about RINOs and how there are too many moderates and too many attempts to reach across the aisle etc... That wouldn't be the case if he really ran the GOP.

Factual. Where's the snide part?

It comes off as snide to me, factual to you.

Don't play semantics, do you understand my point or not?


Where are the snide comments from Obama regarding Limbaugh?

The snide comment was 'behind closed doors' and it got out there. Also, one of his higher-ups made unprompted and clearly planned comments

Again, do you not understand my point? You are going off onto hardly-important tangents.


Here, I will re-state my point, with more Danforth-friendly language:

Sarah Palin, admittedly, overreacts to a couple of jokes aimed square at her children and she's an embarassment. Yet, Barack Obama makes whiny , unprompted comments about Fox News - although his comments about Fox had an element of truth in them. The Obama administration also has gone after Rush Limbaugh and Hannity loves the soundbite where Obama mentions him by name - and that's not an embarassment for the candidate of change and unity - the one who was going to bring a new tone of civility to Washtington?

No one can get elected while going against him.

He hated John McCain, was actively against him during the primary, and yet McCain still came out on top.




Bullshit.


I see multiple POV's on most of the other channels.

Do you realize that Obama has enjoyed more than twice the positive coverage that either Bush or Clinton had during their first 6 months?

We are not talking absolutes here - this is bias - it's a matter of degree.

Oh, and Fox's roundtable for the 6-7 spot always has a mix of opinions represented.

The voice of the GOP

"Asked who speaks for the Republican Party, 13 percent of adults point to Limbaugh"

thehill.com

That wouldn't be the case if he really ran the GOP.

No shit.

However, that doesn't stop the O-maniacs from running with a stupid talking point. I am just surprised that Danforth is among them.

"Asked who speaks for the Republican Party, 13 percent of adults point to Limbaugh"

I wonder how many of the adults sampled were Democrats, and I wonder what that number was before Team-Obama's Limbaugh strategy was implemented.

Also, 13% is a pretty small number.

"He hated John McCain, was actively against him during the primary, and yet McCain still came out on top. "

And how'd that election turn out?

"The snide comment was 'behind closed doors' and it got out there"

By a Republican. And all he said was "You can't just listen to Rush Limbaugh and get things done".

Again...what's not true? And how is that snide? I think the Rush Limbaughs and the Michael Moores of the world are a detriment, not an asset. What's wrong with pointing out that fact?

Palin Outraged Headline Possibly Not About Her

FF!

Sadly true, but still funny.

Jindu thr hindu is apparently haunting e-bay, looking for a quadriplegic baby to buy, just to stay in the camera's eye.

"13% is a pretty small number."

Not when you're in first place. And not when you have 30% more than the guy in second.

" that doesn't stop the O-maniacs from running with a stupid talking point. I am just surprised that Danforth is among them."

I'm a lifelong Independent, who isn't very happy with Obama to this point.

But I can still see who is the titular head of the Republicans. So could the survey respondents.

And how'd that election turn out?

He got through the primaries with Limbaugh actively against him - your point is moot. You said nobody in the GOP can cross Rush and win, and McCain did just that.

Once the general began, Rush was for McCain and against Obama.


What's wrong with pointing out that fact?

It's childish, petty and whining from the candidate of change and unity who's going to bring a new tone of civility to Washington.

It looks bad when Palin lashes out over a direct attack on one of her children and it looks bad when Obama does the same thing.

Not when you're in first place. And not when you have 30% more than the guy in second.

No, he said elected.

I am not Danforth, but will answer anyway.


She was correct in calling out Letterman, but then kept the issue alive longer than it had to be. Letterman is a national show with millions of viewers and she had to respond in her eyes. This time, however, it is just a small blog that no one knew about until she opened her mouth. She gets too worked up over too little and her reaction becomes the story.

"am I correct in presuming that you think Palin's tack regarding this and Letterman were cool as well?"

I think Palin would have been wiser to ignore it, but she certainly has the right to say what she wants.

Regarding Letterman, just so much faux outrage. Does anyone really believe Letterman was aiming the joke at the 14 year old, or endorsing child predation?

But again, Palin can fire off all the missives about the sexual safety of young girls all she wants. And I'm free to believe it's much ado about nothing. Ultimately, she's a lightweight who got picked because of her chromosomes and her appeal to the pro-life base.

Kan,

How do you feel about Obama regarding Fox and Limbaugh/Hannity?

"I am not Danforth"

I disagree. She's a mother with an infant. I agree that keeping him out late at night on a regular basis would be shameful, but I only saw that happen one night at the convention -- and ALL nominees do that. (I know this because it has always bothered me.)

Do you know how much time she spent with her children before she became the nominee? I'm in academia, and many of my colleagues -- BOTH women and men -- kept cribs in their offices and had infants with them some of the days that they weren't telecommuting. I'd be among the first to rant if they weren't doing their jobs, but the vast majority were.

Clearly not all workplaces can or should be family-friendly. But I applaud parents for trying to integrate their work and family lives in ways that allow them to spend more time with their children, and am incredulous that LIBERALS are leading the "you can't be a good mother and work at the same time" campaign.

"The mere idea of someone doctoring the photo of a special needs baby is appalling."

No GoatTroll you were clearly stating a single launch as your following statements say. You really are a lying sack of shit aren't you?

So you think it would be cheaper if building a car in space to use one mission to take the transmission, another to take the engine, another to take the body, etc.? LOL Though it would take more energy to take the whole thing up at once, it would be cheaper than doing it piecemeal because each time you have to expend energy to lift the launch vehicle and the fuel itself.

It takes as much if not more energy to get mass into terrestrial orbit a little bit at a time (more because more missions are require) vs all at once. You do understand HS physics, don't you? The extra missions would cost much more, too. You do understand basic economics, don't you?

To put it another way, Snoofy was FAR from the only rabid Palin-hater to describe her as crazy on this blog.

She isn't crazy. She is a victim of sudden and undeserved national fame. Like most reality stars, she is doing everything she can to make those 15 minutes last 20.

That's so odd, because...I am Spartacus!

So do you prefer water or wine?

"So do you prefer water or wine?"

Oh, the latter, definitely.

Maybe a nice '02 Oregon Pinot or a delicious Lodi Zinfandel.

Wine doesn't taste good in the bong though.

Lodi? HAHAHA

Word to the wise: DON'T brag about wine from Lodi.

OK, furryhole, if you insist. Here is the link to the quote where I said NASA said multiple vehicles would be necessary and sent out seperately. I still can't figure out what that quote of mine has to do with this or your lies, but whatever, troll.

Fuck, I wish the trolls I owned were smarter than you, but I gotta admit, it's kinda fun smacking you around. LOL

"Ion engines, though very low thrust are very effecient and require little fuel. They could be launched ahead of time in such a manner that their velocity would match that of the manned vehicle when it approached it. These ion powered 'way stations' could carry supplies, fuel, parts, whatever. This would make it easier to build a manned craft on launched from earth. They could even carry building materials for a simple habitat. They would have to be launched a a few years ahead of the manned vehicle, so to start planning for it today would not be out of the question."
www.drudge.com

So where you come up with this BS that I endorsed a single launch vehicle is beyond me -- bad deflections notwithstanding. There's my unambiguous quote in black and white.

Later furrytroll. I grow weary of posting links that prove you wrong and getting only a weak assed deflection in return. I expect more for my money than that. Back to troll school for you! LOL

Kinda hard to hide your race.

So, what you are saying is that if the baby was normal she would have left it at home. How do you know such information?

Carting any baby around to make stage appearances on a national political campaign is borderline abusive.

Palin went to the media over this, not the other way around. -- #181 | Posted by kanrei

Gotta LOL at the media/bloggers who turn everything Palin (or her daughter's boyfriend's mother) does into big news, and then complain that she's getting too much attention.

Yeah seriously its not. Nor are the kids "props". They are a inherent part of her life and that is not deniable. If she brings her kids on some stage that is still Sarah Palin and all that she brings.

Some of yall need to grow a backbone. And some of us are disappointed you've been lying to us about having one.

This is a america children grow a pair.

The left is so frickin hypocritical. If this were not a conservative they would be flipping out over a special needs baby being used in any way to mock someone. You guys seriously need to just STFU.

Gotta LOL at the media/bloggers who turn everything Palin (or her daughter's boyfriend's mother) does into big news, and then complain that she's getting too much attention.

Palin's office issued the press statement that started this, Phoenix. Without her statement it would have never been a story at all. Blaming the media for covering her latest whinefest is absurd. People care about the Alaskan trainwreck. Look at all the comments it has drawn here.

"The left is so frickin hypocritical."

We are not talking absolutes here - this is bias - it's a matter of degree.

#153 | Posted by JeffJ

I think there is some bias, but I think the degree to which YOU see bias relates directly to the fact that channels besides Faux don't express a level of outrage at everything left of center, that you find suitable. Therefore, those channels are biased.

Kanrei's Law on Media Bias- The perceived bias of any media outlet is directly and conversely proportionate to the political bias of the viewer. A right leaning person will see no bias on Fox, but be outraged at MSNBC where a left leaning person will find MSNBC fair and Fox biased.

Maybe a nice '02 Oregon Pinot

I agree. Most people agree that '06 Oregon's Willamette valley had the world's best pinots that year. I bought a case of Bella Vida's '06 "O'donnell", a Pinot Noir for $350. There were only 149 cases of it made. I still have 8 bottles of it left and hope to still have at least 6 of them in 2012 when it peaks. I break it out only on special occasions.

It's cool to have a wine like that in the wine cooler that can't be found commercially in Texas. The four times I've served it at a dinner party, the guests swooned.

I see looking at their site, the price of it has predictibly gone up since I bought mine

Nah, you'd see far more since it included the word "pussy".

Hey...did someone type the word "Pussy?"

This is a mostly liberal blog, so "Palin has a Cock" would be a better post getter.

I'm sure you'd hasten to add that the same would be true of the right's hatred of MSNBC.

Why are all the gays on here afraid of Palin? Because she is so much smarter than you brainwashed lemmings!
That is the only reason, and justly so. She will be there in 2012, if the big eared chimp in the white house leaves us a Country to save. I would like to see trials for treason for every democrat that has helped to cover up the truth of obama's citizenship.
There should be trials convictions and life sentences

The same is true. I'm glad you asked. There is nothing wrong to point out media bias.

But going to so far as to "hate" people in the media or media outlets is just stupid and weak.

Why is this cunt still in the news?

Because people like you like reading it. Face it, without buyers of their news, news agencies would stop reporting it. They're not going to waste their time reporting stories that don't sell.

So if you want her out of the news, stop reading about her. Hell, you should be doing that anyway since you seem so upset that she still gets ink.

I'll bet you are one of those lefties who whine about Rush all day, yet are tuned in to him daily.

How are my words in any way considered a 'tirade'?

Most of them fit the classical definition:

Main Entry: tirade
Pronunciation: ˈtī-ˌrād also ti-ˈ
Function: noun
Etymology: French, shot, tirade, from Middle French, from Old Italian tirata, from tirare to draw, shoot
Date: 1802
: a protracted speech usually marked by intemperate, vituperative, or harshly censorious language

This is McCain's fault. If the dumbshit hadn't promoted Palin we wouldn't have to hear story after story about the half-baked Alaskan.

SNOOFY: Who's "we?"

GOATMAN: The left. And please don't insult my intelligence by saying the left wouldn't be tickled pink to have another Palin daughter get knocked up.

Goatman, if you want to have a conversation with me, that's fine.

Please don't insult my intelligence by putting words in my mouth, or extrapolating comments I didn't even make to some mythical, lock-step "left."

SNOOFY: Then the proud mother of a newborn (wow, you'll be a grandmother a year after you had your last kid) child with Down Syndrome, scoring big political points with the swelling ranks of mothers of "special needs" children.

JEFFJ: The left is mostly pissed because she didn't abort the little retard.

There's this mythical "left" again. (And the r-word which gives Goatman strong negative vibes.)

What upsets me is that if Sarah Palin has her way, parents without the strength -- financially or emotionally -- to raise a child like Trig won't be able to get an abortion even if they wanted one.

Likewise, an abortion seems like a good option to have on the table when sorting out a sixteen year old unwed pregnant daughter. Palin would take that away.

FTA: ...offended again...

LOL.

Again.

Be Well.

Please don't insult my intelligence by putting words in my mouth, or extrapolating comments I didn't even make to some mythical, lock-step "left."

I didn't put words into your mouth. However, a sarcastic statement as the one I was replying to lends itself to interpretation. Your chances of avoiding such ambiguities are lessened in proportion to the snarkiness of the reply.

"OK, furryhole, if you insist. Here is the link to the quote where I said NASA said multiple vehicles would be necessary and sent out seperately. I still can't figure out what that quote of mine has to do with this or your lies, but whatever, troll."

Hey GoatTroll you sack of shit you should have posted this before. Are you now covering up for how much of a fucking loser you are now?

Honestly, do you think jumping all around an issue when you get called out on bullshit validates it somehow?

Why don't you go back to pissing off your rig mates?

You are a pathetic sack of hypocritical shit.

Hey GoatTroll you sack of shit you should have posted this before.

I did post it before -- a couple of days ago. The fact that you forgot (even though I reminded you) is not my problem.

You lost. I rubbed your nose in it. Deal with it and quit whining. All the name calling in the world isn't going to get you into the plus column.

Something's getting awfully sandy.

Speaking of which, let's all reminisce over one of Election 2008's better jokes:

Q: What's the difference between Sarah Palin's mouth and her vagina?

A: Only some of the things that come out of her vagina are retarded.

Ba-dum-tiss!

Make fun of a handicapped child.

Classy

Come now. The joke, while crass, makes fun of the handicapped child's mother -- specifically what "the left" perceives as her underdeveloped intellect.

The handicapped child on which the joke turns is not itself maltreated in the joke, nor is it the subject of the ridicule.

Also, it's a fucking joke, man?

Here's another joke. This might even be construed as being on-topic, in light of the extent to which Sarah Palin's panties knotted themselves over David Letterman's monologue.

(WARNING: Joke may hurt feelings. Joke may not be "classy" enough for a high-class joint like Drudge Retort.)

Q: What do 9 out of 10 people like?

A: Gang rape.

...specifically what "the left" perceives as her underdeveloped intellect.

I understand the joke. However, I feel there are other ways to joke about this perception without using a handicapped child as a prop.

For the record, I never endorsed jokes about the homely Chelsea Clinton or Amy Carter either.

The gang rape joke, OTOH, is good.

let's all reminisce over one of Election 2008's better jokes

I have a better idea. Let's all don't.

Lest we get into a debate over who is the "real" retard around here for posting that kind of tripe.

For the record, I never endorsed jokes about the homely Chelsea Clinton or Amy Carter either.

I am with you there. I have never even heard a proper Chelsea Clinton joke, just "she's ugly" or what have you. Of course, at the first sign of trouble, the Clintons made it quite clear that their daughters private life was to remain such.

Sarah Palin, on the other hand, seems to want to share her family's medical records and rape histories with us. (Also, where did the rape thing come from? Anybody who inferred that from Letterman's joke has been watching too much To Catch A Predator.)

I seldom shy away from a joke solely because it hinges on handicapped or race or what have you. That seems no less racist and certainly more stupidly politically correct than the jokes themselves.

See Also: Condemning the act of some idiot who made a stupid picture of Sarah Palin's child. Why even comment on such inanity? It should be beneath notice of anyone except the most popular yet secretly insecure sixth-grader...

Families should be within limits. The best way to hurt somebody is hurt their family. Taking away the family leaves too much off the table.

how dare a woman run for office!...and with a baby?...who does she think she is
Obama has no children and even if he did, he wouldn't ever have them on a stage with him

Yeah asshole I said you should have posted it before instead of making up your bullshit argument. You are also too fucking stupid to realize that was just another option on having to do multiple launches since one is just too ridiculous.

It also isn't even a realistic option since it is too risky. It was thrown togther as the only potential way to get the earliest launch.

Again, you are a fucking loser.

So GoatTroll is allowed to call an argument but no one else can?

You really are a narcissitic fuck as well.

What a crock of shit. I've never seen such a weak application of the blame game. Yes, the odds of it happening go up with age. But how do you know if she deliberately got pregnant? How can you be so presumptuous? How do you know what was in her heart?

Talk about being full of oneself! LOL Physician, heal thyself.

Yes, really. You tell me what party I belong to then: I believe in early term abortion. I don't believe in the death penalty. I don't believe in prayer in school. I believe in protecting the environment. I don't believe in school vouchers. I'm OK with gay marriage. I didn't like Bush. I don't and never supported the war in Iraq.

So tell me, boi, what party do I belong to?

uhhh..it's about more than belonging to a PARTY.

1) What person am I an adherent or supporter of?
2) What group am I an adherent or supporter of?
3) What party am I an adherent or support of?
4) What bias does my emotional allegiance lean towards?

OOPS forgot one out of your definition.

5) What cause am I an adherent or supporter of?

Well, boi?

"an adherent or supporter of a person, group, party, or cause,"

Obviously a cause could be liberalism, or conservatism, or Goatism--the obsession with proving that smokestacks don't exist on the moon.
