Drudge Retort: Red Meat for Yellow Dogs

One of Sarah Palin's first statements as the running mate of John McCain -- "I told Congress, thanks but no thanks on that bridge to nowhere" -- was misleading, according to the Anchorage Daily News. The Alaska governor campaigned in 2006 on a build-the-bridge platform, telling Ketchikan residents she felt their pain when politicians called them "nowhere."

HAHAHAHAAHAHAAHA!

What a "reformer". Just another pandering flip flopping "maverick". She fits right in with bagdad John.

All hands on deck, man the life boats, the SS GOP is sinking.

God I hope Joe Biden beats the snot out of her with this.

i agree. at least the minnow had gilligan and mary ann!

So McCain and his sugar momma wife are the Howells? That would make Cheney the Skipper and Shrub Gilligan. Palin is more Mary Ann than Ginger, and the part of the Professor is still up for grabs as Atwater is deceased and Rove is glaringly wrong for the part.

Whatever Palin's record, Cookie-Jar Joe ain't got no ground to stand on when it comes to earmarks; not to mention the sleazy connections between Osama and Biden Jr.:

........its inappropriate to compare this administration to Gilligan's Islanders.......

........the Islanders had humor, loyalty, wit, charm, good looks, the Professor was brainy, and the Howells had class.......

........nothing in common but a shipwreck.......

Hey the family values chick's teenager daughter's got a bun in the oven. Aparently Paulin was too busy going adter her sister's ex to bother teaching abstinence. Or too busy prepping for Johnnyboy.

Even after the bridge to nowhere was ridiculed to the pint whre it was Apaulin to Paulin, she still took the money as an untargetted gift to poverty stricken Alaska.

Pork must be better than moose, especially pork imported from china.

McSame thought he only had one boat anchor arounf d his neck-now he;s got two.

RCADE posted a thread about the lack of vetting by McCain's camp - who have just arrived in Alaska.

John McCain - "Ready to Vet on Day Three"

I gotta say, in many ways she seems preferable to everyone in Washington.

Except she wants to teach creationism in schools and force raped women to deliver their babies. Where is this stupid country headed?

She also thinks the Founding Fathers wrote the Pledge of Allegiance.

Try that one on for size.

Oh, and Cindy McCain thinks she has national security experience because of Alaska's proximity to Russia.

On the gravitas scale, Palin couldn't lift a butterfly fly off a moosepie.

Dems are laughable when they use a flip flop attack. When you look the word flip flop up in the dictionary there's a picture of three jackasses (Kerry, Obama, and a donkey).

Maybe the teenage daughter misunderstood the phrase "bridge to nowhere"

"When you look the word flip flop up in the dictionary there's a picture of three jackasses (Kerry, Obama, and a donkey)."

Not true.

There's a picture of those pink Nipponesee sandals wrapped with cotton candy you save for special occasions.

"On the gravitas scale, Palin couldn't lift a butterfly fly off a moosepie."

You still here, Doc? Moosepies? I guess all that is in character for you. Don't you ever take a break? I bet you wear Depends when you start posting so that you don't have to get up...right? Seven-day-shitter trousers too, I bet. You probably haven't figured it out, but that's why you're always alone in the room. LOL

Wow, Jest, you've moved from an embarrassing obsession with other posters' genitalia to outing yourself as a coprophiliac.

Whoudathunkit?

Whuzznext?

Rove wanted Romney.
McCain wanted Liebermann.
Then Captain Queeg performed a big "Fuck you!" by picking Palin.
A candidate who believes George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Benjamin Franklin, Alexander Hamilton, and James Madison wrote the Pledge of Allegiance.
Any question she gets is gonna be a hardball.

Lipzoid's first ever musical ballad tribute to the nominee.

My name is mrs palin,
and i've done some sailing,
and i've hunted a moose or two, yee-haa.

But nothing has chilled me
down right thrilled me 'down there'
as the day I flip-flopped
on the bridge to nowhere.


(CHORUS - EVERYBODY)

That bridge is lonely and cold
McCain is stupid and old.
One day, if I play my cards right,
McCain will die in the middle of the night,
and i can finish that bridge to nowhere.

.......




Nice going, Lipzoidial.
May I suggest a doo-wop refrain of:
Yup, yup, yup, yup
Yup, yup, yup, yup
Yup, yup, yup, yup

absolutely, and the bgush apologists can come in and make their whining sound like an electric guitar solo.

Except she wants to teach creationism in schools

I guess you have proof that Life as we know it was a big accident.

Please tell me just exactly how life evolved from a single cell to humans.

"Please tell me just exactly how life evolved from a single cell to humans."

You've been told a gazillion times.
You just don't process it too well.
Stick with the one about the rabbits from Mice and Men.

"Wow, Jest, you've moved from an embarrassing obsession with other posters' genitalia to outing yourself as a coprophiliac."

WOW, Doc, me boy...These are YOUR posts:


"...butterfly fly off a moosepie."
"...remind me of the guy in my gym class who just couldn't stop staring at the other guys while they were dressing."
"Alluding to the Washington Monument as a phallic symbol (as I did).."


'Pears to me YOU are the one with homosexual tendencies (which are incurable) and a penchant for coprophilia, which CAN be treated. You're slipping, Doc, and I think you're having an identity crisis.

Who'd a thunk the GOP would pick a ball-breaking, Ted Stevens supportin',dope smokin', child ignorin' unqualified woman for their first Affirmative Action position? Dobson did.

Rudy and Mitt must be shittin' themselves over the ownership of the GOP by the talibaptists.

Maybe Obama can match her with leadership experience....oh that's right he doesn't have ANY!!!!!!

snipe,

Read anything by Dawkins. His explanationa are brilliant because they're so simple to understand. The Blind Watchmaker, The Selfish Gene, The Panda's Thumb or The God Delusion.

Prayers don't work, not for heart surgery or Reverend Dobson when he asked all believers to pray for a storm on Thursday night so that the Obama acceptance speech outdoors in Denver would have to be cancelled.

Instead Gustav hit New Orleans again giving Bush & Cheney a good excuse to stay away from a place theyre no longer welcome. For some strange reason theyve cancelled todays events, I suppose its another fake effort to pretend they care.

Anyone else find it convenient that the big news about Palins daughter was released AS Gustav made landfall?

Nutcase,

It is painfully obvious that Dobson is just not that important in God's eyes for God to send the rain on time.

Ooooooh looky, there's Bushy looking all commanderish on tv. What a joke.

excerpt from newsclip
Palins name is listed on 2003 incorporation papers of the Ted Stevens Excellence in Public Service, Inc.,-- a 527 group that could raise unlimited funds from corporate donors. The group was designed to serve as a political boot camp for Republican women in the state. She served as one of three directors until June 2005, when her name was replaced on state filings. Stevens was indicted in July 2008 on seven counts of corruption.
She also held a joint news conference with him in July, before he was indicted, to make clear she had not abandoned him politically.
Stevens had been helpful to Palin during her run for governor, swooping in with a last moment endorsement. And the two filmed a campaign commercial together to highlight Stevenss endorsement of Palin during the 2006 race.
Shortly after Palin was announced as McCains vice presidential pick, the ad was removed from her gubernatorial campaign web site. It remains available on YouTube.

anymore skeltons?

Remember where you saw this first:

By the end of this week, there will be calls from within the GOP to drop this moon bat. McCain will drop he and select Lieberman by Sept 15. That will help McCain

That will help McCain

Don't think so. The talibaptists will freak and the rest of the country will recognize Mcsame's senile dementia for what it is.

She's under investigation for abuse of power. The hits keep coming. This "reformer" is far from what they claim she is. She's no different from Bush or McCain on almost every issue. Pro-life, lifetime NRA member, anti-same sex marriage, for teaching only abstinence in school (that's great, can't even keep her own kid on message for that one). She's a carbon copy of the administration we have right now...the one that reformed NOTHING and fucked up EVERYTHING. Once the entire story on this girl comes out, people will wake up.

I bet McCain wishes he'd met with her more than ONCE now. She's more of a spender than Bush is. She's far from a true conservative, more like the bunch of neo-cons currently in office than a Reagan Republican.


That's right, he's stuck with the ice bitch. He can't drop her and he can't win with her.

She does have more experience than Obama on one front.

She has already LAWYERED UP ala Rove, Bush, Rice,Rumsfield,Cheney, Libby and all the other CONS that have been asking for Pre-immunity!

Now I see how she is a perfect fit for the GOP

just WHO has the cutest flip-flops?

Hey Nanc,

Would YOU out one of your daughters like the SnowQueen did? Or would you consider what damage something like this would do to a 17 year old child?

Cutest flip-flops has to be the lamest attempt at deflection in history.

You of course have no clue, but the fact that you could write such a statement shows that you are beyond clueless!!

Why don't you go take a few classes in molecular biology and evolution, and make an effort to let the evidence help you form your views?

God these thick-skulled know-nothings get tiresome after a while. Oh, sorry, farmerj: G_d

I guess you have proof that Life as we know it was a big accident.

I guess you have proof that God as you know him was a big accident.

She's just another reckless spender of the people's money--just like all the rest of the Dems and GOP.

Palin and her hubby are also members of a secessionist group that wants independence for Alaska! So much for running for vice president of the UNITED States of America! United except for Alaska? Nice, Sarah. Very, very nice. Who vetted this woman again????

Question to BLT and other friends of the GOP -- where are the values
your party supposedly respects and represents?
Obama -- married to same women, two children, no apparent dysfunction. Biden -- tragedy in early marriage, great marriage now, very tight with kids. McCain -- bucked up through failure by connections (oh, so familiar, must be a GOP thing) deserts first wife, marries up, cheats. Palin -- possible secessionist beliefs, (black helicopters! Arm the compound!) daughter, unfortunately and yes it does happen, a pregnant teen. No judgement on the Palin kid, just on your party moving the bar on the morals issue over and over to suit your horrendously hypocritical stances. Man, I'm beginning to believe that their is indeed evil in the world and some of it dances under the elephant. Dems have their problems and issues and corruption, for sure. But, man, oh man, you dudes a pathetic in your ugliness.

It's pretty disturbing that her first speech as McCain's running mate contained a blatantly false claim that was so easily challenged. There were any number of ways she could have touted her record as Alaska's governor. Instead, she chose to mislead people. If the bridge had not become a political hot potato, she would've continued to support it happily.

She even demagogued on the issue by telling the residents of Ketchikan she didn't like it when people called their town "nowhere." Which she did herself in her first moment of national prominence.

Don't worry she will be fetching coffee for McCain and his cabinet come January. Mushrooms don't care about the truth they like to be in the dark getting fed crap .

She is easy on the eyes tho.

"She even demagogued on the issue by telling the residents of Ketchikan she didn't like it when people called their town "nowhere." Which she did herself in her first moment of national prominence."


Calling Ketchikan "nowhere" is like using the 'N' word. Lower 48'ers can't say it but if you're from Alaska, it's cool.

Kingzilla - I know that many teens today (TOO MANY) become pregnant and I firmly believe the main reason is the lack of sex education in both our schools and our homes.It has been proven that abstinence education does NOT work and I believe that Bristol Palin's predicament is a perfect example of this. Yes, 'accidents' happen even when using birth control but it is inarguable that accidents happen a lot less often when birth control is used.

My daughter, some years ago, brought up this discussion at the dinner table: Her biology class assignment was have the students in the class ask their parents how they would react to the news that either their daughter had become pregnant or their son had gotten a girl pregnant. They were then to write a report on the subject based on their parents' answer. Our answer was simple: I told our daughter that we would support any decision she made regarding the pregnancy but that we would be horrified that she would put her life in jeapordy by having UNPROTECTED SEX. Today this is no longer an issue of will a girl get pregnant. It is an issue of - will a young person expose him or herself to a life-threatening disease. Back in the day, all WE had to worry about was getting pregnant or contracting an embarrassing social disease that would be cured with a few shots of penicillin. Today, a young person has to worry about much, much more and I think our schools and our parents are falling down on the job BIG TIME.

Well, you can't blame a state when it's given hundreds of millions of dollars to build a bridge... with no legal requirements that the money be used for building that bridge, then changes their mind and decides to steal the money and spend it on other things.

Crooked as hell, but it's the status quo.

Building the little strip of road to the beach where the bridge WOULD go to keep from having to give federal funds back... now that's priceless. Just keeping the money in Alaska, you understand. Maybe they'll even build the ramp up to where the bridge would have started... make a nice place to jump your car into the bay to kill yourself when seasonal affective disorder gets to you.

Now if only someone would pay the U.S. nine trillion dollars to build a moon base, but append no requirements to actually build that moon base, so we can steal that money to pay off the national debt... of course, the U.S. government would simply blow it on candy or some other bullshit, and keep right on spending until we have a 20 trillion dollar debt.

How much executive experience does Senator McCain have??????????

here's a u-tube video on Palins' phony bridge story
what if it sowed up right after a McCain commercial?

it has been very popular on the net:

utube.smashits.com

Wow, what a total Republicrook like all of them!

She has all the "skills" craved by he ditto-buffoons:

- Lies to the electors so she can steal their money
- Abuse of Executive Power both in her short time as Governor and also as Mayor
- Abuse of Taxpayer funds to pay for pet projects
- Husband has DUI just like most Republi-fake-christians
- Failed Bush policy on Teen Sex of "abstinence only" was another failure for her Teen and bad judgement

most of all - she is a puuuurty trophy for ol' John's collection!
