Why do we have to keep enduring the endless lovefest of "poor Sarah". Her whining about the MSM perpetuating lies about her by not reporting the truth? Gee Sarah, isn't that what kept you on the stage attacking Obama day after day? Don't you now want to talk about your own attacks and lies and how the MSM only had to report the truth? You hypocritical fool. Putting the lipstick on the pig, Sarah. It goes for all pigs, including you. Jesus I thought we weren't going to have to listen to this blithering idiot anymore. GO AWAY!!

You might want to read Brooksie's column linked above.
He says Palin is the figurehead of the "traditionalist" wing of the Repub Party, who will likely run things for another few election cycles.
She's not going anywhere.

"Traditionalist"? LIke Mel Gibson? That's the Future Wave, eh? Sounds like Bladerunner to me.

Matt is a good little lapdog for General Electric; his corporate masters smell ratings even though she's politically disgraced--hausfraus in flyover still love her, because she's so "down to earth" and "just like" them.

Brooksie says Rush Limbaugh and Sean Hannity have taken over the Repub Party and there's no place for "moderates" like him.
Why did it take so long for Clarice to figure it out. He's supposed to figure things out before we do and keep us informed.

I knew it...Matt Lauer is a horse's ass. Did he orgasm during the interview?
The Ignoramus Palin needs to get the hell out of my TV space. WE DON"T WANT HER. Obviously she can't take the hint. Chutzpah, with nothing to back it up whatsoever.
Now it's "What's the Matter with Alaska?" Hopefully, some writer with integrity will do an indepth probe, not a valentine.

If you look at video of Palin giving a speech (first turn the sound off, it's less of a torture) and watch her face and you see that she loves the adoration of the crowd. She loves performing. That's what campaigning is to her. A performance. Not issues. Not policy, performing. She wants more. She's not going anywhere if she can help it.
If we're to be rid of her, she'll have be dragged, kicking and screaming back to obscurity.

I totally agree, and called her a "novelty act" when McBush picked her. It's obvious from her early training for TV that she's nothing more than a media creature.

Palin's success has been built on a cut-and-run strategy. In Wasilla she cut some fat and ran (before her bad decisions and debts came to light) on to the governorship. As far as I can tell, she only a year or two to run away from the governorship before the pipeline deal fails or an earmark-less, cut-rate-oil Alaskan budget explodes. I have no doubt God will show her the way out. Senate? Fox News?

Wow...Mooselini's got a huge kitchen in her free house. Plus, the room where Miss Matt allegedly interviewed her appeared quite posh and unJoetheplumber-like for a hockey mom wannabe. And, though NBC's roster of morning meat puppets expressed dazzlement at Moosie's ability "to cook" while being interviewed, my cook's eye more saw a woman scooping things from plastic containers and warming them in a microwave than actually, technically cooking. Also amused to watch Miss Matt standing to eat his salmon casserole at a half-table attached to the toboggan-length island...what, no dining room in the free house?

REMEMBER
If you are able, save a place for them inside of you. And save one backward glance when you are leaving for the places they can no longer go. Be not ashamed to say that you loved them, though you may not have always. Take what they have left, and what they have taught you with their dying and keep it your own. And in a time when men decide and feel safe to call war insane, take one moment to embrace those gentle heroes you left behind.

Wow. That is good stuff.
I got curious and looked up Major O'Donnell. He was killed trying to rescue 8 army guys who were surrounded by the enemy. Just after he picked them up he was shot down. A musician, poet, and obviously brave man.
Through DNA testing they finally found his remains in 2001.

I think we should do everything we can to promote a Republican ticket of Palin for Pres. in '12. She'll be the most entertaining opponent we could possibly find and keep Tina Fey in big money. And Todd could head up the Republican party.

AIG biggies at YET ANOTHER RESORT, spending taxpayer bailout money. Has anyone even checked to see if these are actual HUMAN BEINGS? Perhaps just prototypes of some future financial overlords. When is ENOUGH going to be ENOUGH. And what of all this Paulson SECRET FUNDING and REWRITING tax codes? WTF?

Veteran's Day takes on a whole new meaning for me now, with my son leaving for boot camp on Dec. 30th.
Am I the only one who is sick and tired of Palin in the news?
