Will she in Waukee?
July 28, 2011
I don’t know who these nice folks are, but you can find them on the city of Waukee, Iowa home page.
Waukee is one of the fastest-growing cities in the state of Iowa. Think of it as Wasilla, with Des Moines as Anchorage.
Don’t these young Christian patriots look all set to welcome Sarah to their home town on September 3, when she’ll arrive to speak at a Labor Day weekend Tea Party rally?
Her kind of people, fer sure. “Rill” Americans with small town values, not the motley assortment of colors and creeds to be found in demon-infested cities. According to a 2004 special census, Waukee was more than 96 percent white. Just the sort of place, in other words, to provide the perfect backdrop for, say, the announcement of a presidential candidacy by a politician whose supporters are also more than 96 percent white?
Does anybody remember September 3, 2008? Just three years ago? When a previously unknown governor of a state with only three electoral votes electrified a political convention with a speech that launched a thousand nightmares?
Sarah places great stock in symbolic dates. The third anniversary of her Republican convention speech comes only eight days before the tenth anniversary of 9/11.
So will Sarah seize the day?
Waukee, our nation turns its lonely eyes to you.

HA HA HA HA HA! That picture belongs in the rightwing Hall of Fame, right with Huckabee’s family picture and the one of Rick Santorum’s family when he gave his Senate defeat speech.
I seriously doubt this is an announcement event, by the way. It’s to be held at some podunk place called “Hawkeye’s Antique Acres” and people are being asked to bring lawn chairs. This will be yet another over-rated Palin event attended mostly by over-weight old people. The group that’s putting it on just came out of nowhere, and their website is solely devoted to an announcement of the event. Another front group for a Palin for-profit venture.
By the way, I seriously hope that’s the entertainment for this event. I can’t think of a more deserving people than the palinbots to have to suffer through such a hideous Labor Day holiday. In a hot field in the middle of nowhere with this and Sarah Palin’s chalkboard screeching into a loudspeaker as the entertainment.
Game on!
Appreciate your research R.C.
Looks like someone forgot to shut the door at the ‘Singing Aryans Ice Cream Parlor’ again.
So, is her next speech in the middle of a corn field? Bring your pickup trucks and stay afterwards to load up with a supply of field corn for the winter…
Palin if she were to run is going to announce on a stupid redneck Alaskan morning radio show.Bob and Mark maybe my memory fails me.She was on their dumb show and promised them that’s where she would announce.She may have been lying but for some reason I don’t think so.I think it was the same show where they were laughing at a cancer survivor and calling her a bitch.God that woman is horrific.I really can’t see any reason any one would consider voting for her unless you admire ignorant andvengeful.
The only seizing the grifter has in mind is her cushy job as a Fox field reporter!
As I mentioned over at IM, it’s occasions like this that give me a renewed appreciation for being a progressive. Our music’s better, the dancing’s better, the men are hotter, and we have much more fun and upbeat ideas for the future. I truly feel compassion for children in Tea Party families. They get dragged to all these lame events, the poor souls.

BTW, if the ultra-white, NOT Gay, Aryan dancers don’t work out, Here’s something the Baggers will love:

If she was originally planning to announce on that day, would it have been available for her to speak in Iowa? I can’t imagine how she’s going to explain announcing a run for President, if she does, anywhere but in her “beloved Alaska”?? It also seems really tacky to announce a run for President during a speech which you’re getting paid to give. But then $arah was never known for her class! It probably wouldn’t even occur to her that it would be frowned upon to do something like that and of course, her wacky fans at the PeeZoo don’t care when or where she announces, they have millions of excuses and alleged reasons as to why she hasn’t announced a run yet.
In all honesty, I would LOVE to watch Scarah’s speech announcing her candidacy for POTUS. She’d be so hopped up on meds and her mental illness would be on full display, it would surely best her resignation speech. Imagine the hate that would spew out of her, when she’ll finally be in a position to face the black man who beat her. Wow, it might be enough to get her committed right there and then.
Seems it might be nice to announce your candidacy in a state where you are actually on the ballot. Last I heard she is not on the straw poll ballot.
As for sticking in your home state. Tpaw announced down there, as did MB so Palin is not breaking new ground. Leave it to pols from MN to flee to IA to announce their candidacy. Anyone want to guess what the odds are of either Tpaw or MB carrying MN for the GOP are standing right now
I hate to repeat that I never believed this horror would run and I still don’t.
But sadly I must admit obama has shown himself to be so weak and far right that I can’t get to excited about 4 more years of him.
At this point I might welcome the diversion of the bachmann loons and the palin loons fighting it out.
But here is a few things to be sure of no matter who wins.
SS and Medicare, the safety net for ordinary people will be destroyed by cuts.
Americas rush to a 2 tier nation of haves and have nots will accelerate ,enforced through the loss of civil liberties and mercenary’s patrolling the streets.
The middle east will be on fire as a result of the planned attack on Iran.
And the depression we are currently in will seem like the roaring twenties 5 years from now.
Somehow I can’t get to worked up over the games of the pathological quitter from wasilla.
I was wondering if Mrs Quittypants was getting her normal fee with all the extras for this gathering also too? She’s just such a gosh darn patriotic American charging all her followers a fee to hear her speak!
I don’t know if Sarah’s getting paid to speak, but the event is free admission, three dollars for parking. Food and drink will be available for purchase. Over at Conservatives 4 Palin people are reporting that they have made their lodging reservations (Waukee is a suburb of Des Moines) and one person is organizing a charter bus from Texas.
It’s probably the only place where there was a pre-planned gathering in the state of Iowa. Pork patties on a huge bar-b-q grilling, watermelon feed, church ice cream stands, tacos-in-a-bag, face paintings, lemonade stands, concert in the park, last fling before school starts and work starts in the fields. The “Antique Mall” party to get the people in to shop before the weather gets bad! People out camping in the mosquito infested campgrounds……(Walnut Woods State Park just down the road). Been there, done that. A politicians dream, catching live ones enjoying the last run of summer enjoyment.
Her man on the ground scoped out the surrounding and found this gem. Des Moines International Airport just down the Interstate…she can fly in and out without much interference. The Des Moines Register building along the way…convenient for the reporter. Coincidences, no?
This is the Palins we are talking about here. They don’t anything for free. Sarah Palin even got a cut out of The Unattended by selling the audio rights to her book. And her parents sold the rights to use her pictures in the movie.
Watch for this hastily thrown together group to start whining for donations. It’s how the professional rightwing rolls. The idea of an actual job makes them tremble.
If she isn’t being paid her whopping fee, then she will back out, once the site is seen for what it is. A PAC hastily thrown together specifically as a showcase for something important for the news to cover.
She will be trashing Obama and puffing out her chest and collecting whatever $$$$ she can scam out of this PAC. (I’m sure they will have to pay her way).while possibly, just possibly putting a stop to that “Will I or won’t I” striptease act.
Her game is a “Let me entertain you” from Gypsy.
Exactly.
The cross-eyed, batshit crazy harpie is about to become the least of our worries.
Tell you what. If the Congress doesn’t get its act together this weekend and raise the debt ceiling, but Sept. no one will give a rat’s ass what Sarah does. Seriously…who will care?
You are right.
What will they gain from this? I really don’t understand what they are up to. I don’t think they know themselves
Since when does Rush Limbaugh call the shots? He seems to be one of the forces behind this craziness.
Interesting how most candidates want to announce they are running near their homes, or birthplaces, state of birth. Sarah wouldn’t feel the “love” in Alaska if she ran there.
Interesting too that no tea party rallies in Alaska have ever been known to invite her to speak. She really has no supportive backers in AK. Her excuse could be that there are few and their chapters are too small. Still, to show her support and appreciation to her state, why has she never just been “ordinary American Sarah” and offered to speak at any rallies up in them thar hills? Is she a pilgrim without a home?
Tom, I know how you feel. I suspect much the same thing about Obama at times, more often than not, in fact. However, if McCain had won, I can tell you that not near the amount of help that has been extended to the unemployed would have been offered. No way he would have gone for extended benefits, COBRA assistance, etc. It may not seem like much, but as someone whose spouse is a casualty of the construction implosion, I can tell you these benefits helped to keep the lights on and the mortgage paid. And there are millions of unemployed that also received this help. Think about the consequences if this help hadn’t been there. We are talking millions of people begging for the jobs of the currently employed at half the wages. It wouldn’t have been pretty.
You left out the Taffy Pull and the Home-made Lye Soap Making exhibit.
Thanks for the laugh!!
So True!
Conservatives can’t make movies anyone wants to see and they are so bad at music that no band will let them use their songs because all the good music is made by liberals. Mick Jagger may not like to pay taxes but he doesn’t want to keep gay people down.
To tell a story, you need empathy to put yourself into someone else’s shoes. And Empathy leads to voting Democratic.
I hope those reservations are the kind you can cancel. I wouldn’t trust her to show up.
Here is my campaign button:
Obama 2012
(seriously, look around)
Hard to know if she’ll run or not. It’s where reality intersects with her fantasy, distortion, and pathological need: surely dark, ugly terrain so who knows which way she’ll jump?
We continue to attribute to Sarah Palin the characteristics of a “normal” person with the ability to reason, analyze or understand. This would be mistake. She is mentally unbalanced, at the very least, and lacking any moral compass is capable of almost anything, for any or no reason at all. Or just to feel better. Or just because she can.
She is a special kind of bad. No bottom.
Glanced through Bailey’s Book, Palin was crazy then, mood driven and unpredictable . She hasn’t improved with age, in fact more bat sh*t crazy.
Also skimmed very lightly through a book “Turn Right at Machu Picchu”, in part debunking Bingham of Yale claim to fame… discovering Machu Picchu. Debunking can be a long time in coming. Palin will be debunked and autopsied completly eventually, hopefully in time to be discarded and pushed out of the political scene in this country before 2012. Foreigners spotted her craziness easily.
Let us hope Joe McGinniss does the honors with “Rogue” and really finishes her off.
Too funny!!!!
Palin issues a warning to GOP before debt vote.
OOOH this should scare them??? WTF people she quit, she nobody.

Listen to roland:

Right on lilybart. Obama can count on my vote too.
Rush has been calling the shots since he called for Clinton to be impeached.
I hope she does run because only then will she get it through that dense head of hers that Americans are not that into her. Even many of the ‘rill americans’ will not vote for her. Republicans want to win the election, and contrary to the myth in Sarah’s mind that she is undefeated; she was defeated in 2008 and she will be defeated in the Republican primaries.
Sarah has some serious issues with hate. She is a hater and a vindictive one at that. Certainly she is not Presidential material. She should stick to being a Charlatan. She certainly has a talent for that.
Tacos in a bag?? Before I fly off to my native California, MrsGunka, can you explain what those are??
Yeah, I’ve been keeping tabs on all these groups that no one ever hears about until they are connected to a Palin speech. They’ve usually been created just beforehand, and then you never hear from them again.
How many of your props will you pick up from Gramma’s or Aunt Hesther’s house to drag along with you, Sarah? Better make sure Todd doesn’t have a “massage” appointment that weekend! I’m sure the tea baggers on Iowa want to see you pretend to be a good family woman.
I loathe this treasonous famewhore: http://www.facebook.com/note.php?note_id=10150252110003435
There’s some,they’ve got Ted Nugent and palin loves him.I just don’t think you want children around when he performs.For a party of family values Nugent isn’t really appropriate but they’re hypocrites so maybe it doesn’t matter.
Well the citizens of Waukee do not find Sarah’s visit important or exciting enough to add to the city calendar.
http://www.waukee.org/events-calendar.php?month=08&year=2011
Over 80 and white, just her kind. She is sure to get a warm Waukee Doodle welcome and a nice photo op without any of those nasty colored people in her pics.
http://www.waukee.org/album/9
She won’t run for POTUS or any other political office because she could not withstand the scrutiny. Too much baggage. Too many skeletons in her closet. Her worn out tired old cliches don’t have the punch they used to have. Palin fatigue is setting in. Outside her tiny team, she has little support.
Joe, she is not going to go for it until the books come out. She is not worried about anything Levi is going to say as she is confident that she can handle that. It’s your book that has her attention. She is waiting to see what you discovered.
I think this is what she means – we called them “walking tacos” when I was a Girl Scout leader in Iowa 15 yrs ago. You take a very small bag of Fritos and open it, then spoon in seasoned ground meat and grated cheese, lettuce and diced tomatoes. Eat with a spoon. Yummy.
Lilybart….sooooo true…
Let’s do the time warp again…. That photo of wholesome, white “Rill Murkins” reminds me of an Up With People show I saw at our county fair in rural central Ohio in 1965. Ugh.
I had Daisy and Brownie Girl Scout Troops in southern California in the early 2000’s and we also called them Walking Tacos also, too. They loved making them…. You Betcha!
Eating them…? Not so much!
That fact has been real obvious for some time and it makes me wonder why the IRS or other agency isn’t looking into it — it is clearly money laundering.
MrsTarquinBuscuitbarrell asked Mrs. Gunka what “Tacos in a bag” were. I think I know what these are: This is where one takes Tostitos or Fritos, put them in a paper bag, squirt some of that fake gooey cheese stuff on top of the Tostitos (in the bag), add the taco-flavored fake mystery meat stuff on top of that and voila! sell it to overweight white people who like to eat “Tacos” in a bag while driving their mobility scooters to the local Sarah Palin hundred grand speech during 102 degree weather on Labor Day.
Of course she is Getting paid! Ms Granny Grifter doesn’t do ANYTHING, WITHOUT BEING PAID AND AIRFAIRE AND BENDY STRAWS AND BAILEY’S &+COFFEE!
I just love that the “Firebaggers” don’t have any answers much like the GOP. Do you not understand OBAMA could of done much, much, more without his hands tied?
And all the “Firebaggers” 1/2 of the country who didn’t vote in 2010 b/c they were mad” get a fuckin’ clue! You are now part of this problem.
Get behind your POTUS or you are party of the problem, not the solution!!
Oh GROSS! I was going to say “Jack in the box Tacos” but this Really fits…
ugh!
Yes, palins “Rill” ‘murkia”!
I hope the thrilla from wasilla does run. This would finally be the end of this circus show. She doesn’t get that the majority of America thinks she’s nuts! She’ll find out really quickly. I personally need the laughs and unfortunately the angst. Joe..salute for enduring the hell to write this book. I’ve preorderd of course.
In Texas that is called Frito Pie
There’s plenty of time for her to quit/bail on this event. Lots can happen in the next month!
Amen to that. Many chess players are mere patzers or wood pushers while few see the endgame at the outset.
Here! Here! Shame on all the cry babies who didn’t vote in the mid-terms! THEY are to blame for the state we’re in. Yes, we are all disappointed that we didn’t get the public option. Yes, we are all disappointed that Gitmo is still open. Yes, we are all disappointed that we still have troops in Iraq and Afghanistan. By grow up people! We all need to be dragging all our moderate and progressive friends and family to the polls with us next year or, seriously, it’s the end.
I just discovered this abomination at a 4th of July party in Minnesota. I declined. People are in need of a quicker way to shove crappy food in their mouths, I guess.
Although I do like the many things “on a stick” at the Fair! But ONLY at the Fair.
If the vote fails Sarah will find the nearest stage to crow that she had the power to do that. Remember she injected herself into campaigns that were winning and then claimed they won because of her. But the biggies like Joe Miller and that Rich guy who ran against Mancin in Viginia (she had left Trig and his surgery) they went down in flames. But we know that will not stop her, as she has no shame. We can avoid her by not clicking on the articles and headlines in the MSM that is one way to help deflate her.
count me in, too.
no matter that i’m fairly disappointed by the turn of events over the last two years, i’m still fairly sure where to place the blame for 98% of it.
i can still look at president obama and think, “geez, thos is a no brainer.” the alternative didn’t get better. no. it’s much, much worse.
Even food is getting dumbed down in this country. Sigh.
OMG! God opened the door and this is what we see?
It no longer matters to me whether or not she decides that the country needs her. She’ll be buried, by Republicans and by the media, and by Joe’s book, if she declares.
If she doesn’t declare, she’s on a long, slow slide down the slippery slope of celebrity. Is Hollywood Squares still broadcast? Five years from now, she’ll be the center square: heck, maybe all the Palins will fill the square, and each one answer the questions incorrectly.
If not Hollywood Squares, something along the lines of the Kardashians (never seen by me) or Jersey Shore (ditto), or sad rubber chicken dinners at Anti-Choice rallies in third-market towns. Anything to stay in the public eye and make a buck doing so.
By January 1, 2012, Sarah Palin will be begging to appear on Celebrity Apprentice.
I live in a high end Republican area. I mean high end.
Had lunch with a group of Republican woman. More middle class than high end…
They despise and loathe Palin. Since I had never lunched with them I was a bit leery of bringing her up, but I did. Well they loathe politicians in general including President Obama in particular, but they cannot understand why the Republicans or Media pay attention to her. She came off worse in their eyes than Obama.
One and all think she is stupid and destructive to the U.S.
Oh, the opinion on the debt .
That the politico’s are playing pass the hot potato. No one wants to be caught with this one.
I think Sarah’s political teasing may have backfired on her. She’s aging ungracefully, and her beauty was an allure for many of her followers. Once that’s gone; she’ll be lucky if she can get a gig at the Macy’s Thanksgiving Parade; walking next to the floats, waving her hands, and occasionally giving folks a thumbs up; while Todd follows behind her holding her purse.
Laura Ingraham pushes back on Sarah Palin primary threat
http://www.politico.com/news/stories/0711/60238.html
Thanks, all, for satisfying my curiosity. Mr. B and I just satisfied our voracious appetites with authentic California tacos and burritos–pulled off the freeway in desperation and found a place called Tacos & Co. Mmmmm!
GinnyMiller, thanks for the, uh, graphic description! Which is easier to take on a bellyful of authentic, home-state (California, not Iowa) tacos..When I read your post aloud to Mr. B, he said dismissively, “Sounds like Ball Park Nachos.”
Here’s something to think about. There’s no in the world who knows Sarah Palin better than Sarah Palin. That’s common sense. So then, why would she be concerned about unauthorized biographies (sotospeak) about her when any person of average intelligence knows that no one can depict another person by third party interviews etc? It just makes no sense she is worried. She chose the spotlight and to make a difference publicly in 2008. She knows herself and her past best. Nothing has come out already that is MORE weird or MORE scandalous than any of this country’s past salacious history.
There are Alaskans who have lied to journalists and authors. That has been documented or acknowledged. Nothing has slowed this woman down. There’s a reason for that. She’s just a normal woman who has successfully helped to awaken America to Government deception. How is THAT bad? It’s stupid to say she is the sole inciter of hate when she has said many times, no one’s inciting hate or condones violence. Besides, decades ago the country was much more dangerous. Shootings used to be justified BY LAW. Now if a parent publicly disciplines their kid, they are arrested.
DC is known for backstabbers and dishonest people at all levels. Why do you think NO Presidents choose to live there after their terms or EVEN visit frequently?
People need to look at the source when deciding what to believe about another person. And just because something is published DOESNT mean it’s remotely true. Don’t be stupid or a sheep.
To repeat, nothing ultra shocking or bizarre has been revealed to date. Sarah has been shown to be, gasp, a human being. Who, in her shoes, would pass up the chance to move from middle class to upper/middle? If you would, you LIE. Sarah supports her family over everything. She thinks of them first. She helped her daughter secure a better life when an accident happened. She supported her daughter when said daughter chose single parenthood. THATS a good mother, one who supports their kids decisions and doesn’t hinder them. People who meet this family instantly like them. People who have known them still like them.
You can say and construe what you’d like from whatever source you have. It doesn’t mean it’s accurate.
I hope she’s as confident and as ease as you are. That’s when con artists get sloppy. And caught.
You’re really scared about Joe’s book coming out, aren’t you?
Lifer,
This is in reply to your statement “no one in the world knows sarah palin better than sarah palin”. I respectfully disagree. Palin does not show the mental capacity to understand her actions. She does not appear to have a moral compass, compassion, or just basic kindness and respect for others. Sher receives her talking points and she repeats them ad nauseum. “That’s common sense”??? Like sp’s common sense conservatism?
Regarding her “unauthorized biographies” you mention: 1. yes, absolutely you can find out a wealth of information about any person by speaking to and interviewing their family, friends, neighbors and co-workers.
This is “common sense”!!! and 2. “Nothing has come out already that is MORE weird or MORE scandalous than any of this country’s past salacious history.” I am sorry, is this sentence really supposed to be a defense of her?
“there are alaskans that have lied to journalists”…….yes, sarah palin is the one with the most lies given to journalists. you can confirm this statement with a simple search on line. sp lies, all the time, about everything, even the weather. It is called pathological Lifer, she lies as she breathes.
“It’s stupid to say she is the sole inciter of hate when she has said many times, no one’s inciting hate or condones violence.” 1. No one has said she is the “sole inciter of hate” and 2. your defense of her is her own words that “no one’s inciting hate or condones violence”?? really Lifer?? Actions speak louder than words as I am sure you know. I can yell “fire” in a crowded theater and watch as a riot breaks out and people stampede to exits. I can then try to defend myself by saying “I don’t condone riotous stampedes”. It does not change the fact that my word caused the chaos and possible injuries.
Regarding ” just because something is published DOESNT mean it’s remotely true. ” Just because something is published doesn’t mean it isn’t true. Generally speaking I trust that most peeps on this site along with myself will look at the source of a story to determine it’s merits. If you are implying that Joe McGinniss is not truthful then I feel you should just comment to him directly and ask your questions. You may also want to be armed with your ‘proof’ of his lies as he has quite the brilliant mind.
“Who, in her shoes, would pass up the chance to move from middle class to upper/middle? If you would, you LIE.” Why the capital letters used for the word LIE Lifer? Does that word just hit a bit too close to your home?
Hmmm……….how many of us would lie and cheat and grift and basically sell our souls to the highest bidder to move from middle class to a higher financial level? Maybe I am optimistically naive but I tend to believe not many of us. This is why sp is the one who has done it?
She puts her family above everything else? Then tell us Lifer, why did we witness Piper so unhappy every single day on the “family bus tour”? Why did everyone who was old enough to leave the bus tour leave after two days? Only her parents and poor Piper were still with crazy sarah for the duration of the farce.
She put her 17 year old daughter on stage in front of the world as an unwed pregnant teenager. Who does this? Who parades a toddler around at all hours of every day to campaign and sell books? You compare her to other politicians, well name another politician who has paraded their children, especially their young, pre teen children all over the country from stage to stage? There is not one other politician who has done that.
And I find it interesting that your blog name is “Lifer”……………as in a prison sentence. I would imagine your devotion to and position within the palin circle does feel like a Life Sentence doesn’t it?
peace.
Who is signing your paycheck, Lifer? The same person/organization that signed off on the *social media strategy* to do damage control prior to and once Joe’s book comes out? It’s not working. The machine you work for may be better spending the $ they’re paying you amateurs to a spay and neuter clinic. (I know they’d never go for family planning that helps humans.)
They’re called ‘Walking Tacos.’ Step right up. Take a small bag of Doritos, crush before opening, open bag, add cooked ground beef, stir, eat—trade show heaven. When I first saw them I thought it was a brilliant idea. Still do. It makes sense and they’re good.
As I’ve heard say, “A conservative is a person the will not try anything, even once.” Close minded and stunted, what a waste of the life experience.
Sorry, for those who think Obama is weak….you want a fight, he wants to govern and to continue to move things forward. I think you are not giving full weight to the force of the powers that want to destroy him and could care less about 98% of Americans. I agree with those that challenge the firebaggers. A group of fairly smart people that insist on their way or the highway, and seem addicted to both perfectionism and self righteous anger. And just a reminder, the left is not the whole of Obama’s base. Quit treating him like you own him. Work with him in constructive ways if you want to be effective political pressure from the left, a good thing. As it is they might as well join hands with the teabaggers at times I don’t know where one begins and the other ends. Oh and since when would a liberal join ranks with Grover Norquist, personally I think we have individuals who are not truly what they attempt to represent themselves as, and like Sarah Palin love nothing more than to incite your emotions in hopes that you will open your wallet for their enrichment.
He has told us time and time again, it is about us. Get involved….and not just commenting on the internet.
And anyone that doesn’t vote, should keep their frustrations to themselves. We wouldn’t be the powerless 98% if we coalesced, accepted the frustrations and armed ourselves with the patience and determination to move things forward. Also, lose the word cave……
When she wakes up to the devastion that would be caused she’ll forget that she was against raising the debt ceiling before she was for it. Either way she will spew her lies and hatred full force at President Obama.
She is predictable. Just once I wish he would tell her to STFU, knowing he never would. To bad poor Sarah can not command his attention, I am sure it bothers her more than just a little bit.
I found her remarks to the freshman reps especially rephrensible. She’s back to her don’t retreat, reload incitements. How long before we suffer another tragedy, another crime of hate.
Her ego is so big she’ll float along with the rest of the balloons.
Then she doesn’t care. That hypothesis will be put to the test when the book is released.
Lifer, would you know a lie if it even bit you in the butt? Didn’t think so. Makes your idolatry of Sarah a little easier to comprehend.
I. Trust. Joe McG.
Period.
Lifer, I could take issue with many of your points, but I’ll highlight just this one. You said, with regard to what we (the book authors and bloggers) have learned and reported about Sarah Palin’s character:
“Nothing has come out already that is MORE weird or MORE scandalous than any of this country’s past salacious history.” (Congrats! You’ve mastered Palin’s word salad-speak.)
Ahem. Has a politician aspiring for the second highest office in the land (or any office, for that matter), ever, ever misrepresented their “family values” credentials so egregiously as to have appeared to fake a pregnancy? Shocking, isn’t it? A bald-faced lie is what underpins Palin’s supposed “Christian, pro-life” bona fides, and to compound the fraud, she’s made $100,000 at EACH of countless speeches recounting her “birth” tale. Perhaps it doesn’t matter to you that Sarah can’t seem to remember what city Trig was born in. Oh, what the hell…Mat-Su (Palmer, AK), or in speeches last Fall, it changed to Anchorage. Either way, she still got $100K + 1st class travel expenses. Who cares? WE DO.
Are you familiar with Joe McGinniss’s writing? Look out. He’s been at it for over 40 years, with best-sellers among his credentials. He has a mind open to discovering truth, a sharp eye, and keen wit. He, like the rest of us here, don’t countenance liars or their bullcrap, especially when they’re poisoning our country. Sarah has every reason in the world to be fearful of The Rogue.
Perfect!
The place she’s going to speak at is owned by some tractor group. Pictures of the site here: http://www.centralhawkeye.org/
I think it’s hilarious she’s going to drag her bots to such a dreadful location on what’s supposed to be a fun holiday weekend.
Lifer says the same things over and over.
. Perhaps it is Lou Sarah, one of her many glad hander and praisor of herself identities.
If it is “Lou Sarah” one of Sarah Palins other selves, I suggest you go whine elsewhere and do to yourself what I suggested you do in another identity. (GFYWACS.) You know what I mean.
If you are merely a bot, I pity you.
Joe McGinniss worries you a lot doesn’t he? He did worry you and Todd, when Joe (can I call him Joe?) took his Alaskan summer vacation last year next door and was vilified nationaly both in print and in your lame Alaskan series honoring yourself. Had to drill a hole in your ugly own fence to see what he was up to? The wind blew it down. The writers expose your fake lifestyle and actions for all to see.
Well now you know.
agreed mrs. b 🙂
If you are into antique tractors and gasoline engines, it is the best way to spend Labor Day. If you are not into it, and you are only there to demonstrate that you love your father/grandfather/greatgrandfather, it is pretty daunting. The constant rumbling and popping and farting of the engines is overwhelming.
But sometimes there is good food. And the old guys enjoy showing off their polished-up machines.
However, as many of them as I went to years ago, i NEVER saw one used as a political stage.
The more I think about it, the more it makes sense that ‘Lifer’ (commenting above) is a Sarah Palin alter ego. So, Lifer, tell us, will Sarah declare? When and where?
Seems to me that we humans have a tendency to regard ourselves in a certain way. But is that the real us? It might feel real but if one wants to be influential or help others, one has to consider what we look like to them. And that picture rarely jives with our own.
Biographies, authorized or not, are insightful reads precisely because they look at a subject from the outside, and through the eyes of others. They also incorporate objective elements — artifacts like writings and pictures — in addition to recollections and records of events relating to the subject.
It is not wrong to say, “Nobody knows Sarah like Sarah know Sarah.” But if you want a darn good picture of who Sarah is, what she’s done and what she’s neglected to do, who she’s inspired and who she’s turned off (and why), go read an biography written by someone who has taken the time to comb through her life in the context of her environment. Don’t ask Sarah. She won’t tell you anywhere close to the whole story. All she can tell you is how she sees herself.
She’ll never be picked in the primary by the Republican party. She is an embarrassment to them.
Me too!
Lifer says: “People need to look at the source when deciding what to believe about another person. And just because something is published DOESNT mean it’s remotely true. Don’t be stupid or a sheep.”
Proff positive of this statement would be Sarah and Bristol’s own books. Both are full of the most ridiculous lies and fairy tales. Poor Bristol’s was a total bomb..and now for the rest of her life, people will be able to mock her using her own words. Forever, when many people hear her name, they will think of a hot young chick lying to her parents, getting drunk and screwing her boyfriend in a tent. She herself gave us that image. Over at the IM site today, there is yet another example of her fairy tale about her latest pregnancy (which many of us believe was number 3 before she is 20 years old!) Great morals she learned from her wonderful, caring, mother?
I total agree with your last statement….:”don’t be stupid or a sheep.” Actually, most sheep are likely smarter than you are.
What Sarah has said herself (e.g., the wild ride) comes right from the source (albeit slightly different on each telling) and that’s weird enough
I was thinking escapees from the Lawrence Welk Show…
She always seems to make announcements and pronouncements at already-assembled gatherings or “spontaneously” on holiday weekends.
She was announced as McCains VP in Early September 2008; she resigned as Alaska Governor on 4th of July weekend in 2009, and she inserted herself into the NYC mosque near Ground Zero battle in mid-July 2010.
This year, she tried to steal the thunder from Rolling Thunder on Memorial Day weekend. Then she went on a crazazy motorhome tour / family vacation, crashing landmarks and opening venues earlier-than-normal despite her “private citizen” status. This was all done traveling at top speed, with reporters giving chase – before blowing into Boston and undermining Mitt Romney’s POTUS announcement by “coincidentally” being in town the same. exact. day. Then, she finally met her Waterloo… only a week into a “national tour”… at The Revere House.
This month her movie “premiered” with a gathering in Pella Iowa on – that’s right, July 4th weekend.
She shows-up where people are already scheduled to be gathered, or makes a “spontaneous announcement” that she’s speaking somewhere on a traditional “Amurkun” holiday. They weren’t gathering there specifically FOR HER – she’s piggybacking on the Iowa Tea Party’s promotional event ON LABOR DAY and exploiting it to HER advantage.
You are dead on in most of your post.I just want to make a small correction. It’s not the Iowa Tea Party putting on this event. It’s a new group that has done nothing before this event and according to its website has nothing else planned but this event – The American Tea Party. So once again, we see a hastily put together group that no one has ever heard of, sponsoring a Palin speech and with their hand out for donations.
But yeah, she’s trying to draw crowds by picking a Labor Day weekend. I just don’t think a lot of people are going to want to spend a perfectly good holiday standing in a tractor field listening to Sarah Palin babble over a loudspeaker.
You need to do some research before you make some of your statements. You say:
DC is known for backstabbers and dishonest people at all levels. Why do you think NO Presidents choose to live there after their terms or EVEN visit frequently?
Bill and Hillary Clinton have a home in the district. Dick Cheney (who was running the show) has a house in McClean VA which is adjacent to DC, right across the river. As a matter of fact he tore down his old house and built a new one as his vice presidency was winding down.
Hi Sarah…or maybe it’s Todd or Willow, or Creepy Chuck. Anyway, must be a family member or someone on the payroll.
Donald Trump is welcome to try and solve this mess the tea party members have forced upon us all. Need I tell anyone the stock market took a tumble like Humpty Dumpty from their foolish antics in Congress. He is the cherry on top of that grouping of jack asses poseing as our Congress..
He isn’t known as a good neighbor, employer, (does he hit on the women who work for him? Casino? I read he does.) or business executive. He is a weasel who flirts with bankrupcy. Another con man. And Sarah Palin is a con as well. Notoriety is their game. The blowhard Donald Trumps business dealings are notorious. It will be interesting when his past failures and romantic history is put out there for intense scrutiny.
The Republicans have become little more than a bad joke when people like this run for POTUS.
Ivana Trump was Sarah Palins role model. LOL. What more can anyone want in a POTUS.
