That's pretty mavricky.

Sorry, had to.

Heh, I guess no one is a conservative in the face of free money.

"I know that you call them unicycles, but they're really called one wheel balancy-type machines."

She doesn't need the stimulus money despite being broke:

FTFA: About $26 million was for Anchorage schools. Half was specifically for special-needs kids

Nice. Why wouldn't she take federal to help her daughter's kid?

Thanks, but no thanks, but thanks.

TEE HEE

In today's statement though, Palin is quoted saying: "I have to certify every dollar we apply for will legitimately create new jobs and stimulate the economy. I can't certify that fact until the Legislature is comfortable with what the education's fiscal landscape will look like if we apply for the funds."

What the hell are you trying to say, Sarah? Please explain "education's fiscal landscape" to the rest of us.

And I'd like to join the pro-Democratic chorus asking the Republicans, PLEASE run this woman for president in four years.

Well she's a straight shootin' ricocheting mavericky type.

Sarah Palin is not an appopriate public face for the families of the retarded.

The landscaping of fiscal education is something that is of incredible importance to Americans today in order to maintain clear borders and stop the flow of weapons into Mexico

I think you're hedging, Ms. Palin.

MorrisBird

I think you're hedging, Ms. Palin.

You betcha. Hedge fundies are part of my American fiscal education package for landscape.

It's always interesting to see what yesterday provided for right wingnutty comments - because without perspective, we wouldn't truly appreciate how crazy these people actually are.

WHARRGARBL Sr: WHARRGARBL Jr: Like, maybe, it is time to look at more relevant politicians for your amusement, rather than keeping on Palinpalooza'ing around this horse that was already beaten to well beyond death before the election.

They won't leave her alone. She's a threat.

Ever notice nobody calls Dick Cheney stupid? The democrat party speechmakers treat you entirely different if you're a conservative but have the decency to stay on your side of the old-boring-white-male fence. If you're a guy, you're straight, married, white, born before Pearl Harbor got bombed, they'll just call you a living embodiment of evil and call it a day...leave all those dimbulb-stupid-klutz jokes filed away (unless your name is Gerald Ford).

But be born during or after WWII...or be black like Clarence Thomas or Alan Keyes, or female and good-looking like Sarah Palin or Condi Rice, or gay like the Log Cabins, or stray off the plantation in any other way...and out come the talking points. You're dim, you're dumb, you're stupid, you're reckless. While Jimmy Carter says "nukular" as often as he likes, and Obama mixes up his teleprompters and ends up thanking himself.

Palin isn't even asking for the publicity here. It's the democrat party trying to think up talking points against her, because she can't really be counted out of the game like their "polls" keep saying she can. If it was true they would have gotten busy ignoring her a long time ago.

Fact is, four years of Obama are going to make her look even more desirable. In a lot of ways. And they know it. They're terrified.

Speaking only for myself, I am terrified, terrified that this country will somehow elect a person wholly unqualified as president and finish the job the last moron started. And what terrifies me the most out of everything I can think of is that there are people, like this, who actually believe that Sarah Palin is the perfect candidate and that Americans need her as their leader.

God save us, if He doesn't nobody else is likely to.

I was wondering how long it would take her to realize that 2010 comes before 2012.

Is she capable of thinking before she speaks?

Alphax: Is she capable of thinking before she speaks?

I think you're onto something... maybe someone should get her a teleprompter.

I think it's hilarious that people give Democrats a pass around here for "adjusting their opinions" or "listening to others' ideas" or whatever crap people make up, but when it's Palin, she's "backpedaling like a clown on a circus unicycle."

Ball Sack Obama: I think you're onto something... maybe someone should get her a teleprompter.

Why, do you think she learned how to read finally?

I'd like to see a Republican actually turn down free tax money, just to see if it's possible. It's like crack cocaine to them.

I think all the governors who are attempting to turn down stimulus money are also the ones who think they can win the GOP Primary in 2012.

Ball Sack Obama: I think it's hilarious that people give Democrats a pass around here for "adjusting their opinions" or "listening to others' ideas" or whatever crap people make up, but when it's Palin, she's "backpedaling like a clown on a circus unicycle."

There is a distinct difference.

Governor Palin came out yesterday, effectively drawing a line in the sand, stating that she would not accept a large portion of this money and that it would be up to the state legislature to override her wishes. I can respect someone that feels a need to make a fundamental statement as to their beliefs. Today, after hearing from all corners of the state that she made a bad decision, she reverses her core, fundamental beliefs.

This isn't "adjusting their opinions" or "listening to others' ideas" this is the equivalent of Governor Palin coming out and endorsing abortion, banning of all new drilling in Alaska and stating that Real Americans^(TM) don't like Rush Limbaugh.

I believe Groucho Marx has Ms. Palin in mind when he said, "These are my principles. And if you don't like them, I have others."

You forgot the great Ronald Reagan.

So, she is offended by Obama's comment about bowling like he is ready for Special Olympics, because special needs children are "Our world's most precious and unique people".

Just not precious and unique enough to deserve education or medical attention. Got it.

Theological Farker

You forgot the great Ronald Reagan.

When I first met Ronald Reagan he made it pretty clear to me that it was up to me to save freedom as we know it

Ah I have an idea

I dunno, if he can pour his stupidity into the harbor then it may not be a lost cause.

\ We are all in this together.
\\ Oooh we can fix it with duct-tape.

I need to just start all political conversations with "so what do you think of palin?".

If they really like her then I know its not even worth having the conversation with them.

It isn't hilarious, and it isn't just democrats that do it. The republicans sometimes lie about the original position simply so that they can deride someone for changing it.

Yes, Palin is dangerous and a poor choice for leader, but I give her credit for backing down from her stupid position to one that is more reasonable.

I also give Obama credit for backing down from the private insurance for vets thing.

If you are going to have ideas, some of them are going to be stupid.

There is a difference.

Sarah Palin claims to have "Conservative Core Values" which apparently means "values that are as flexible as they are make believe".

This is a problem for me.

I respect anyone that can change their mind, in fact, I see that as an indication of intelligence and acceptance that there may be better solutions than what they had previously believed.

Conversely, I did not see Mitt Romney's change of heart on same sex marriages and abortion as being "enlightened" but rather as someone that has no core values and would say anything to pander to the base.

Considering that "Al Qaeda" translates into "the base", I believe we should all be extremely wary of these people, baseless bastard that I am.

Yeah, OK. I'm OK if the occasional stupid idea makes it to the public, as long as we don't pursue it too far. One did, it was dropped.

Nice spin Libmitter.

/Palin Derangement Syndrome... people are still suffering from it

Rep. John Coghill, R-North Pole, said it's a tough decision.

Oh man, I want to be the representative serving the nice people of the North Pole.

I wonder if there are free toy and reindeer ride scandals.

Cake Hunter: Oh man, I want to be the representative serving the nice people of the North Pole.

Be careful what you wish for. Those elves are small, but wiry. And, their number is legion. They'll sneak up on you and kick the living shiat out of your calves. That's why Santa wears those thick, leather boots.

You're confused again. The deranged are the people supporting her against all reason.

Isn't it time for a new clever one liner?

Phil Herup: /Palin Derangement Syndrome... people are still suffering from it

Seriously, you really think she's smart and able? Yeah.... the people who dislike Palin for being the face of cynical politics are the suckers... NOT the people who that crap up.

Be sure to post Kool Aid man and barking moonbat.

I wonder if she mentioned anything about turning down this money a few weeks back when she went along on a photo op handing out boxes of privately-donated food in some of the most-suffering native villages?
