Palin is a Sad and Moldering Strangeness?
So we should gather from the hit piece by Michael Gross appearing in the October issue of Vanity Fair magazine, that Sarah Palin is “a monster?”
To sum up some of the warped views of the radical far-left, left left, mid-left, moderate left, and near left, we are suppose to believe that Sarah is: a bad tipper, lazy, unprepared, dumb, abusive, tempermental, vengeful, crazy, a liar, an airhead, “unhinged,” paranoid, a bad mom, an overprotective mom, a faux hunter, and (my favorite) that anywhere you peel back the skin of Sarah Palin’s life, a sad and moldering strangeness lies beneath..” Whatever that means.
But here’s the interesting part: the VF article is predictably negative, but its the reactions of others on the left that are astounding. They are responding to the article with their own disbelief of the constant lies. Lefties are even showing signs of morals, of embarrassment of unfounded smears, of a sudden realization that it is they who are looking ridiculous, and not the mama grizzly moose hunter.
Pro-abortion radical Monika Bauerlein of Mother Jones MOCKS what the VF writer views as a human train wreck: “Sarah, these aides say, seemed comforted by having the children around, and she seemed lonely when they were gone.” Truly a monster.
A happy, fullfilled Christian woman, former Governor, bestselling author, popular celebrity, mother of five kids, wife of a most excellent and handsome husband, fit, beautiful, healthy, and now wealthy … does that describe a sad and moldering strangeness?
Palin’s Speech at the Restoring Honor Rally
Levi Kicked Out “For Permanently”
Ya think? Deliberately punking the mother of his son in order to cop $100K from US Weekly, while planning more smear campaigns against her family, should definitely get you kicked out of the Palin family, “for permanently.”
Levi Johnston, douchebag of the year, has managed to extend his 15 minutes of fame for another few seconds. He got booked on the Jimmy Kimmel Show to … for … uh, well, don’t know why they brought the loser on the show, but he appeared as a guest last night.
Kimmel introduced Johnston as “to Sarah Palin what voicemail is to Mel Gibson.” After asking what his status with the Palin family is now, Levi said, “I think they kinda kicked me out now. For permanently.”
Well, I’ll bet the Palins would like this little snotball to get lost, “for permanently.”

Palin: He’s In Over His Head
Sarah Palin calls ‘em like she sees ‘em. On the Hannity show on August 4 (Obummer’s birthday no less!), Governor Palin told Hannity that “Obama is in over his head.”
She pointed out what the rest of us have been thinking: “I think he’s quite complacent and I think he’s in over his head and he has poor advisers around him and I think he’s really in flux when it comes to what his governing philosophy really is… Some of this though is a result of him not having much experience.”
Technically, Obama now has about 18 months of experience as Pee-resident. Too bad he’s spent all that quality time of on-the-job training on the golf course and flying around in that cool helicopter. But it is true, he is inadequate in his role as a leader because he’s never had to be out front before, leading the troops, so to speak. Remember, this is the dude that voted “present” 130 times will a senator in Illinois.
When the Media Makes Stuff Up
“I don’t blame people for not knowing what I stand for. If I believed everything I read in the media, I wouldn’t like me either.”
~ Sarah Palin, 1 August 2010
The Media Assault on Sarah Palin
K. remembers seeing Palin emerge and walk onto the stage, dressed in a sharp black suit, as the crowd in Ohio went wild.
In Chicago, the Liberals around him cringed, as that excitement and energy reverberated through the large screens and smacked them in the face.
K. will never forget two Liberal women, clutching each other, faces blanched, with true dread in their eyes.
“What are we going to do now? She’s incredible. He can win now, with her. What are we going to do?”.
“We need to destroy her. We need the media to destroy her”.
“They need to do their job. They need to destroy her”.

SarahPAC is the Front Runner
A report in Politico concludes that Sarah Palin’s political action committe, SarahPAC, is the real deal and benefits a potential candidate considering a presidential run:
A new financial report filed Sunday evening showed Sarah Palin’s political action committee has taken its fundraising to a higher level – and suggests that she has begun building a more sophisticated political operation in place of a bare-bones organization powered mostly by her rock star status and scrappy on-line presence.

The report, filed with the Federal Election Commission, shows that Palin’s political action committee raised more money in the second quarter of this year – $866,000 – than it had in any previous three-month stretch since Palin formed the group in January 2009.
Palin 101: How To Kick Ass
Sarah Palin lets Barak Obama have it after his sissy attempt to look butch and tough to BP excutives – who he has yet to face after 50 days of the Gulf Oil Spill disaster. Take a lesson from Sarah, Barry. This is how ass is kicked. She makes it look eeeaasy…
From her Facebook Page:
Less Talkin. More Kickin
50 days in, and we’ve just learned another shocking revelation concerning the Obama administration’s response to the Gulf oil spill. In an interview aired this morning, President Obama admitted that he hasn’t met with or spoken directly to BP’s CEO Tony Hayward. His reasoning: “Because my experience is, when you talk to a guy like a BP CEO, he’s gonna say all the right things to me. I’m not interested in words. I’m interested in actions.”
First, to the “informed and enlightened” mainstream media: in all the discussions you’ve had with the White House about the spill, did it not occur to you before today to ask how the CEO-to-CEO level discussions were progressing to remedy this tragedy? You never cease to amaze. (Kind of reminds us of the months on end when you never bothered to ask if the President was meeting with General McChrystal to talk about our strategy in Afghanistan.)
Martha Meets the “Dangerous” Sarah
Back in November, 2009, Martha Stewart had said former Governor Sarah Palin was “very boring to me” and called her someone who was “confused.” Asked if she had actually watched any of Palin’s interviews, Stewart snarked, “ I wouldn’t watch her if you paid me.“ Stewart also called the guv “a dangerous person“ – and Martha should know she’s been to prison!
Yikes! Well, you never know when you’re gonna meet your worst nightmare at one of these elite media events. Stewart ran into the future Madame President at the Time’s 100 gala.
Don’t you love how Sarah has the moxie (and forgiveness) to walk up to all these libs who bash her, offer her hand in friendship, and says “hello, I’m Sarah.” That Sarah Palin would have such social grace must blow the mind of someone like Martha Stewart. Delicious irony there …
Why Palin is the Left’s Worst Nightmare
In a piece he titles “Palin and the Leftist Elites,” Mark Hendrickson makes some key observations about what it means to be a progressive and a liberal – just obvious things that the left themselves overlook.
The left can’t stand that Palin, like Reagan, is not an “intellectual” – such as the left (highly) regards themselves. “To leftist intellectuals,” Hendrickson writes: “it’s okay to have a president who thinks he visited 57 states, a vice president who has claimed that Franklin Roosevelt went on television to calm the people after the stock market crash of 1929 (no TV yet, and Hoover was president) and a Speaker of the House who has insisted that we must switch from fossil fuels to natural gas. All ignorance, error, and mental dullness can be forgiven as long as one subscribes to the political catechism, “The government must control economic activity.” What is unacceptable, even evil, to them is someone like Palin who doesn’t subscribe to the same catechism, who just doesn’t “get it.”
Hendrickson was struck by a passage from the late Austrian economist Ludwig von Mises who wrote back in 1944:
The champions of socialism call themselves progressives, but they recommend a system which is characterized by rigid observance of routine and by a resistance to every kind of improvement. They call themselves liberals, but they are intent upon abolishing liberty. They call themselves democrats, but they yearn for dictatorship. They call themselves revolutionaries, but they want to make the government omnipotent. They promise the blessings of the Garden of Eden, but they plan to transform the world into a gigantic post office.
And we are still fighting these ideologies today! Apparently, we’ve learned nothing in the past 60 years – so we are bent on repeating these mistakes. Although Hendrickson makes the mistake of calling Palin “polarizing,” (and Obama isn’t?), the whole thing is worth a read.
Palin in Canada
Curent maverick and former Alaska governor Sarah Palin told a crowd of paying Canadians Thursday that religion helped her get through two family crises in 2008 –the first was learning that her youngest son was going to be born with Down syndrome and then finding out that her teenage daughter was pregnant.
Palin noted that both her grandfathers were from Saskatchewan and Manitoba, and that her family took many trips back and forth across the border from Alaska when she was a child.
Check out more comments and reports of the event from the Hamilton Spectator, Canwest News Service, and Vancouver Sun.
