Sarah Palin: Going Rogue! - Page 4

Take your 'facts' back to South Korea, commie...

I basically do everything in my power to avoid reading/hearing/thinking about Ms Palin and her homophobic clan. My mom talks about her constantly, and I do my best to shut down such discussions before they can even begin

Anyway, I was reading on HuffPo today that she attacked Hollywood and the movies in her new book, and so I figured since this is CHUD.COM, I would repost her ill informed ramblings about our favorite pastime for your reading pleasure:
Interesting she'd go after American Beauty.. since most of the liberals she thinks the film is speaking to have long since turned against that movie and it's best picture win. Her cultural reference points are a decade out of date

Is it North Korea we like? Or South? Sarah Palin gets them mixed up. http://j.mp/eAP9YS

North, South what does it matter? They're all scary Asians.

How Palin Flunks Feminism

ETA, that was a fun reading.

Hah...well played, Mr. Sorkin.

I don't really have a problem with recreational hunting as long as most/all of the animal is being used for -something- (yes, even if it's just trophies). It's not a "sport" that I'd likely engage in myself, but I don't begrudge others their willingness to do it.

But seriously...killing a moose on TV purely for political gain and manufactured controversy? Yeah, that's low. But hey, she's got to maintain her reputation as "Huntin' and Fishin' Barbie."

So, it appears that everyone's favorite dingbat had a secondary facebook account that she used to praise herself. And of course she got caught.

 

Oh, Sarah you so crazy!

LOL Sarah Palin! 

 

My favorite is where she "liked" her own comment.  Surreal

“No wonder Michelle Obama is telling people to breast feed their babies, because the price of milk is rising so high,” - Sarah Palin

 

I would like to think this is just a bad joke, but I don't know anymore.
 

What?

 

She has to be trolling. No one would ever seriously consider this a smart thing to say.

She's been on this avenue for a few weeks now. Mrs. Obama has been pushing breast feeding heavily because, apparently, it is not done as much by African-Americans. Of course, Palin fails to see that as an issue and likes to pretend the First Lady is telling people what to do.

 

Man, I do not like Sarah Palin.

That's the deal with her. It's one thing to be an ignorant airhead. It's the way that she's proud of being an ignorant airhead, and plays the victim when called on it, that brings on the punching feeling.

Between that, and her anger at Michelle for encouraging children to eat "healthy", I just don't know what to say anymore.  I guess I'm suprised at the amount of followers she has, seems like so many people are proud to be uneducated, poorly informed, and pigheaded in their opinions. 

As a person who lives his life surrounded by the type of people who like her, I can verify they do enjoy being poorly informed and pig-headed. It's kind of like their hobby.

I heard a report on this trend on NPR a while back.  It's fascinating (and depressingly tragic) how it came to be.

I'm not sure if Palin really doesn't know about the benefit of breast feeding or is actively trying to prevent African-Americans from benefiting from it.

My son came up with the funniest verse for the Sarah Palin Battle Hymn (if you haven't seen this treasure, it's here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UhMepzqJvIw): "Sarah Palin's gonna bring back slavery!"

 

Mother's milk is nothing compared to what you would find in the dairy section of your local grocer.  2% for all babies! 

Not to mention, breast feeding doesn't stimulate the economy, those socialist scum infants.  Time to support America,  Freeloaders!

That is an interesting article. I'm inclined to think Palin has no real understanding of what she is attacking, only focusing on the who. It's contrarianism at it's finest.

Exactly, Nooj has put more thought into the issue in the minutes it took for him to post and link that article than Palin obviously has in weeks and months.

 

It's simply "Michelle Obama says it - bad socialist fascist bad". 

 

She'd come out in favor of puppy farms if her political opponents were against them.

 

...wait a minute...

I've long held the opinion that people need to start writing to any Democrat in power and demand nothing more than an end to "vicious corpse fucking." Hopefully that will eventually get them to start making the rounds, and will(pray to god) force Sarah Palin to go out and fuck a corpse on live television while spewing some "Well I guess those city-folk don't understand how relaxing a good corpse fucking can be!" speech.

Oh great, more Palins on Dancing With The Stars.

 

oh, she is just adorable..... she has my vote!

I was going to post that funny Palin-Paul Revere video in here but fuck, after reading this thread I'm too depressed. We need to treat her like Pennywise. Don't believe in her and maybe she'll go away. Or mace her with Battery acid.

I don't understand the dread that Palin still seems to inspire in some democrats.  Her most significant achievement was dragging down the presidential campaign a old white war veteran with a history of bipartisan appeal to the point that a young black guy with minimal legislative experience and cartoonishly unfortunate name associations could beat him by a 2-1 margin.  And it's not like her reputation as a serious political animal has been climbing since then.  She's a Kardashian for the red states.  And in this day and age, the most a Kardashian can hope for politically is a single term in the Senate.  Well, maybe two.

The problem is that whatever candidate the GOP puts up has a significant chance of winning the Presidency, especially if the economy is still down.  That's why she still scares me.

 

The only way the GOP has a chance in '12 is if the economy is still down and Palin stays off the ticket.   Even among her fans I think there's an reluctance to give her actual responsibilities.  She might be able to draw some crowds for campaign events, but presidentially, she's a loser, and has done absolutely nothing to lessen that stigma. 

 

Her only credential is that she was governor of a small state, and she quit.  She fucking quit.  We elect fools, criminals, perverts and megalomaniacs president.  We don't elect quitters.

 

Nothing is impossible.  Just ask the people of California.  Who would have thought, an actor from Austria would have been Governor.  Just saying, stranger things have happened.

 

Arnold was elected in what can only be described as a complete sideshow circus. It's a bit apples and oranges compared to a national campaign for the presidency.

 

That, and for all his beefiness, Arnold's not a dumb guy. A bit dim on where to keep his pants zipped, but he at least knew how to play politics, albeit shrewdly. He almost certainly knows more about the history of his adopted country than Palin, who still treats this as an extension of running for high school class president.

 

Moreover, Arnold's appeal (at the time, anyway) was much broader than Palin's at her best, particularly in a state dominated by the entertainment industry.   Palin's going to be an embarrassing and infuriating presence for the foreseeable future, but in terms of her actually getting her finger on the button, the danger is passed.

hope you're right.  I'd hope that if she was the GOP Canidate, cooler heads would prevail and people would see her for the bafoon she is.  Just with a lot of the shit I see everyday, the racism towards Obama and this "take our contry back" mentality, the notion of her getting the chance is nevre wracking.

Palin's never going to get elected. She's just going to spend the next few years doing whatever possible to get as much attention as possible from the media she so loves to deride and chastise in order to rake in more money from speaking and personal appearance gigs, and this is going to continue until even her most loyal followers grow tired of her over-exposure and she fades quietly into pop culture nothingness.

 

It's a lot like Jersey Shore.

I think what you're missing here is that she'll never be a GOP candidate again.   She turned out to be an embarrassing albatross when they tried it the first time, and second chances are rare in politics following such a high-profile failure.  Plus, as time goes on, she can rely less and less on novelty and sex appeal to fuel what popularity she had.  Then there's the whole fact that she quit her only executive position to work in reality TV.  Even in these Orwellian times, that fact is really damning in its baldness.

 

Don't get me wrong, if the national mood takes an even darker turn, the GOP could end up winning by running a dead squirrel.  But they will run that squirrel before going back to Palin's well again.

who do you think will take the GOP Nom? 

Don't know.  Someone who doesn't have the stigma of dragging down the only national campaign they've ever been attached to.

 

I'd love it if Palin got the nomination.  It would be conceding defeat before the race even started.  But it's not happening.

I don't know Schwartz, the nomination process on the GOP side is pretty skewed towards insane white men. I hope you're right, though.

No one knows, man. There's no real way to know at this point. At this point in the election cycle back in 2007 I think nearly everyone with a working brain had their bets on Hillary Clinton to not only easily grab the Democratic nomination, but also cruise into the White House on a wave of anti-Bush sentiment. There are going to be things that happen, both in the primaries and general election, that no pundit or political aficionado will ever predict. I mean, just a month and a half ago Donald Trump was, according to the polls,  the leading contender for the GOP nomination. That should tell you all you need to know about how serious any polls or speculation at this point should be taken.

 

Shit Happens. No one here or anywhere can claim with any certitude to know who the next President of the United States is going to be, or even who the Republicans will choose as their candidate. Any speculation at this point is really no more than conjecture.

Got to be some names in the mix though, right now.  Over the years, I've been atleast able to come up with a couple names that are strong possibilties, right now though, not so much.

 

 

I still think the GOP leadership, disorganized as it has been lately, is savvy enough to realize that we saw Palin's best shot in 08, and it was a fucking joke. 

 

I don't know, if someone can name me one reason why her prospects in 2012 would be any better than last time, maybe it'll strike some fear in me.  But now, all I see is 10 reasons why they're even worse.  Plus I'm not convinced she's actually interested in the office itself.

 

Romney's arguably the strongest. Herman Cain is getting a lot of attention right now,  as well as a some favorable polling numbers. Ron Paul also seems to be setting himself up for another intellectually honest, yet politically futile run through the primaries.

But really, who cares? Were you planning on voting for any of them?

Have never voted Republican, but it's still good to be aware of one's opponent. 

 

Have always rooted for the Packers, but I keep up the Bears and Vikings just as much.

If I understood sports I would continue to mix metaphors with you, but I honestly feel that trying to predict what the presidential election of 2012 is going to be like at this point is nothing short of a masturbatory waste of time.

 

 

Giuliani as the lead Republican contender. Bank on it.

"Gonna take you to the bank, Senator. The blood bank." 

Giuliani's whole speech:

 

September 11!

 

September 11!

 

*Fart noise*

Mr.Lassiter, meet the Internet. Internet, this is Mr. Lassiter.

I'm sorry, did you say something? I was busy reading celebrity twitters and watching Grey's Anatomy shipper videos on Youtube.

Part of me hopes Palin will run because she doesn't have a snowball's chance.  The other part of me wants her to disappear from the public eye entirely because she reminds me of everything I don't like about my own country. She makes me sad.
 

I don't know where you were living in 2003, sir, but I am nearly one hundred percent certain that you weren't living in California.  Calling Schwarzenegger's election a circus was being too generous. His only competition was from people like Larry Flynt and Garry Coleman. For fuck's sake a big fat white guy ran in a diaper. I think I saw a homeless man in Humboldt with a "vote for me" sign.

 

 

 

In line at a Rite Aid yesterday, a guy in a Caltrans vest at the next checkstand suddenly started talking about how it's so unfair that Palin is given a hard time by the press and how she's the only politician who tells it like it is. He was talking really loudly, so the whole store could hear. He called Palin a "real Statue of Liberty lady". I felt like asking him what the fuck that means, but I honestly thought he would go nuts Naked Subway Guy style if anyone said anything bad about her. The employee ringing him up was just smiling and nodding like she was dealing with a mentally defective person (she barely said anything, so it's not like they were having a conversation about politics or anything. It was just random unsolicited opinion he wanted to get off his chest). I wonder how many of her male fans are overzealous, smitten retards like this?
