Woah. This just got serious.

FTFA "Johnston is pursuing his own book deal and movie deal while working as a carpenter."

Guy SUPPOSEDLY knocks up young girl. Girl happens to be from a very Christian and Pure family (so probably didn't have sex!). Child is born in the boonies, will likely follow in father's footsteps and be trained as a carpenter. Conveniently the term 'Messiah' has been floating around politics as well, yet nobody is attaching that title to the deserving one.

The second coming is upon us.

natas6.0: I get a kick out of all this Palin hate.

Let's ignore that she successfully runs the largest state in the union,
and let's get past the fact that she has the highest approval rating of any politician in America...for years.

She has obviously been made out as an idiot by selective media.

You see, she has to be trivialized and made fun of.
She almost pulled off becoming vice president, and conservatives absolutely adore her.

By the way, how is that economy doing under the new leadership?
Yer job going okay?
Looking forward to Christmas?

That right there shows me you're a troll.

6/10 tho.

Agent Nick Fury - Why does the press keep interviewing a teenage dweeb, who wasn't smart enough not to knock a girl up, and then post his opinions like they have any meaning?

To be fair, no one would pay attention to the teenage dweeb if the governor had given more solid reasons for stepping down early rather then the vague "good for Alaska" and "I know when it's time to pass the ball for victory."

She pretty much repeated the talking points during her interviews earlier this week - the ones she did while wearing fishing waders - and when Andrea (?) Mitchell of NBC asked Palin to elaborate, she replied, "You're not listening to me," and proceeded to repeat a vague talking point.

We're listening to the 19-year-old dweeb 'cuz we've got nowhere else to go.

/BTW, I love your screen name.

I suspect his fark handle is meant as self-deprecating humor. And if you can laugh at yourself, you can damn well laugh at anyone else you want. Or in the words of Horace, "What stops a man who can laugh from speaking the truth?".

I like Palin, I know i am in the minority here on OMG GOP IS TEH DEVIL fark, but I genuinely like Sarah Palin.

Okay you can go back to your baseless bashing of the woman now.

I've filed Palin away with MJ and Octomom: stuff I've had it with and never want to hear about again. I enjoy a trainwreck as much as anyone but once a certain number of cars have derailed it stops being amusing and you just want it to farking stop!

baseless?

She attacked a young man just because he said the same thing she did in her press conference.

It's not baseless when she keeps f'n things up. If she would just shut up and do her job she wouldn't have most of this criticism.

natas6.0:

Or does natas6.0 count? Because I really didn't think it was a troll (my husband says I'm "innocent", some might say "naive."
Either way, I agree. I like her (so does my not-so-naive husband).

Your probably right, and if you're inbred or 12 it's funny. When you're an adult, self deprecating humor needs to be a little more than standing around making fart noises and laughing. Especially when you're going to say a whole group of people are so stupid they need to die.
Did you find his handle funny or amusing? Or do you think like I did, that some high school or college kid is posting.
I want to raise the bar, just a little.

What about her do you like exactly? and like I said before "liking" someone isn't the same as thinking they should be vote for.

It seems like the only reason people "like" her is because she is similar to them, not because of anything she does.

I just find it hilarious that the most astute liberal political pundits are on the same intellectual level as a 19 yr old carpenter with no more than a high school education.

outofsync: I like Palin, I know i am in the minority here on OMG GOP IS TEH DEVIL fark, but I genuinely like Sarah Palin.

I'd genuinely like to see her in some bondage videos featuring latex, unfinished benches, clothspins, a ball gag, and an expertly balanced geranium plant.

The only thing that woman is good for now is the meat her body is constructed of, then, only under certain circumstances where it isn't making any noise other than the clink of pots and pans.

Last year, she was a pretty good tool for the republicans to use against themselves to screw up their chances of getting anybody into office for the next decade. That, and seeing Russia across the water.

ScottHimself: Corvus:

Exactly my point. She is like many conservatives, complains about others and never takes care of her own messes.

I know someone who is related to someone who is friends with someone who doesn't like Palin. Shun?

You like liars, eh?

What wouldn't Sarah Palin lie about if she felt she had to?

Palin lied when she said the dismissal of her public safety commissioner, Walt Monegan, had nothing to do with his refusal to fire state trooper Mike Wooten; in fact, the Branchflower Report concluded that she repeatedly abused her power when dealing with both men.

Palin lied when she repeatedly claimed to have said, "Thanks, but no thanks" to the Bridge to Nowhere; in fact, she openly campaigned for the federal project when running for governor.

Palin lied when she denied that Wasilla's police chief and librarian had been fired; in fact, both were given letters of termination the previous day.

Palin lied when she wrote in the NYT that a comprehensive review by Alaska wildlife officials showed that polar bears were not endangered; in fact, email correspondence between those scientists showed the opposite.

Palin lied when she claimed in her convention speech that an oil gas pipeline "began" under her guidance; in fact, the pipeline was years from breaking ground, if at all.

Palin lied when she told Charlie Gibson that she does not pass judgment on gay people; in fact, she opposes all rights between gay spouses and belongs to a church that promotes conversion therapy.

Palin lied when she denied having said that humans do not contribute to climate change; in fact, she had previously proclaimed that human activity was not to blame.

Palin lied when she claimed that Alaska produces 20 percent of the country's domestic energy supply; in fact, the actual figures, based on any interpretation of her words, are much, much lower.

Palin lied when she told voters she improvised her convention speech when her teleprompter stopped working properly; in fact, all reports showed that the machine had functioned perfectly and that her speech had closely followed the script.

Palin lied when she recalled asking her daughters to vote on whether she should accept the VP offer; in fact, her story contradicts details given by her husband, the McCain campaign, and even Palin herself. (She later added another version.)

Palin lied when she claimed to have taken a voluntary pay cut as mayor; in fact, as councilmember she had voted against a raise for the mayor, but subsequent raises had taken effect by the time she was mayor.

Palin lied when she insisted that Wooten's divorce proceedings had caused his confidential records to become public; in fact, court officials confirmed they released no such records.

Palin lied when she suggested to Katie Couric that she was involved in trade missions with Russia; in fact, she has never even met with Russian officials.

Palin lied when she told Shimon Peres that the only flag in her office was the Israeli flag; in fact, she has several flags.

Palin lied when she claimed to have tried to divest government funds from Sudan; in fact, her administration openly opposed a bill that would have done just that.

Palin lied when she repeatedly claimed that troop levels in Iraq were back to pre-surge levels; in fact, even she acknowledged her "misstatements," though she refused to retract or apologize.

Palin lied when she insisted that the Branchflower Report "showed there was no unlawful or unethical activity on my part"; in fact, that report prominently stated, "Palin abused her power by violating Alaska Statute 39.52.110(a) of the Alaska Executive Branch Ethics Act."

Palin lied when she claimed to have voiced concerns over Wooten fearing he would harm her family; in fact, she actually decreased her security detail during that period.

Palin lied when asked about the $150,000 worth of clothes provided by the RNC; in fact, solid reporting contradicted several parts of her statement.

Palin lied when she suggested that she had offered the media proof of her pregnancy with Trig to "correct the record"; in fact, no reports of her medical records were ever published; and the letter from her doctor testifying to her good health only emerged hours before polling ended on election day, even though there was nothing in it that couldn't have been released two months earlier.

Palin lied when she said that "reported" allegations of her banning Harry Potter as mayor was easily refutable because it had not even been written yet; in fact, the first book in that series was published in 1998 - two years into her first term - and such rumors were never reported by the media, only circulated as emails.

Palin lied when she denied having participated in a clothes audit with campaign laywers; in fact, the Washington Times later confirmed those details.

Palin lied when asked about Couric's question regarding her reading habits; in fact, Couric's words were not, "What do you read up there in Alaska?" or anything close to condescension.

Palin lied when she mischaracterized the "$1200 check" given to Alaskans as the permanent fund dividend check; in fact, that fund had yielded $2,069 per person, and she claimed otherwise to obscure the fact that Alaskans also received a $1200 rebate check from a windfall profits tax on oil companies - a tax widely criticized by Republicans.

Palin lied when she claimed to be unaware of a turkey being slaughtered behind her during a filmed interview; in fact, the cameraman said she had picked the spot herself, while the slaughter was underway.

Palin lied when she denied having rejected federal stimulus money; in fact, she continued to accept and reject the funds several times.

Palin lied when she claimed that legislative leaders had canceled a meeting with her to hold their own press conference; in fact, they only canceled it after being told she would not participate, and the purpose of the press conference was very different from the meeting's.

Palin lied when she announced on the news that she never holds closed-door meetings; in fact, she had just attended a closed-door meeting with the legislature earlier that day.

Palin lied when she said that former aide John Bitney's "amicable" departure was for "personal" reasons; in fact, Bitney said he was fired because of his relationship with the wife of Palin's friend, plus a Palin spokesperson later claimed "poor job performance" for his firing - without elaborating.

Palin lied when she said she kept her running injury a secret on the campaign trail; in fact, her bandaged hand was clearly visible in photographs and the story was widely talked about.

Palin lied when she claimed that Alaska has spent "millions of dollars" on litigation related to her ethics complaints; in fact, that figure is much, much lower, and she had initiated the most expensive inquiry.

Palin lied when she denied that the Alaska Independence Party supports secession and denied that her husband had been a member; in fact, even the McCain campaign noted that the party's very existence is based on secession and that Todd was a member for seven years.

Mom?

Corvus: I don't believe you asked that question in a mocking manner (again, I may be more "naive" than most), but since there's little chance of 98% of the people in this thread taking anything I have to say seriously or even really paying any attention to a completely serious list of things I genuinely like about her, I'll just say it's because:
A. She's hot
B. I'd do her
or
C. I think she actually speaks her mind and says what she believes (whether it's popular or not) and stands behind what she says (even I don't necessarily agree with everything she says, for the record) She also puts up with an unbelievable amount of bullshiat and still manages to stay classy.
D. All of the above

So you like her because she's honest, but recognize the need for intelligence, discretion, and objective thinking in political office and thus voted against her.

Right? If not, try actually listing some qualities which you feel make her a viable candidate for the Vice President's office.

So now you people are angry at a politician that actually didn't take money while in office. Then she resigned so that she could take that money without affecting her job, or because she actually didn't care about alaska. Either way, she's better than the guys that cheat on their wives, the ladies that lie about the CIA, the guys that run gay brothels out of their apartments, and the guys that can't seem to realize that you should read legislation prior to voting on it.

She sounds stupid when she speaks. I'll take stupid and mostly honest over stupid and crooked.
