A Facebook invite lets me know that Sarah Palin will be coming to Central Arkansas on February 16 for a fundraiser. The event will be at Verizon Arena in North Little Rock at 6:00 that evening. Details forthcoming but it appears the dinner is $175 a plate and will raise money for the Republican Party of Arkansas.Oh my God, oh my God, Arkansas is SOOO lucky, to have Sarah Palin coming to raise money for the Arkansas Republicans! I bet they are SOOO excited!
Uh oh.
The Facebook link now says “This Event is no longer available because it has been canceled.” Screencap before it was taken down. However, I believe this means whomever posted the Facebook invite jumped the gun before all the t’s are crossed with Paliln’s people. The RPA is being tight lipped with no comment on the event but other sources tell me the event is in the works just not finalized.
OH...MY...GOD...WHAT...A...BUMMER! Poor Arkansas Republicans. I bet they are feeling completely betrayed and abandoned. What is it with Sarah and states that start with the letter "A" anyhow?
Now let this be a lesson to you Razorbacks:
If they don't wheel out the Stapleton,
Then don't rely on any Sarah Palin fun.
Am I crazy or is Mrs Palin starting to look like Cindy McCain?
ReplyDeleteNeed more damning photos with a baby or two
ReplyDeleteCan I just say that the picture you have posted captures Sarah's essence perfectly!
ReplyDeleteCheck out the crazy eyes....that is the look of a psychotic menace.
"However, I believe this means whomever posted the Facebook invite jumped the gun before all the t’s are crossed with Paliln’s people." Gryphen
ReplyDeleteMay be it not the t`s that need crossed.
But what is SP cut of the $$$$$$$$$$.
That need to be cross.
The Twitter Quitter is now quitting things BEFORE they are scheduled.
ReplyDeleteIs someone, at some point, going to recognize she and her screwball organization is NUTS?
OT, but guess who's gone national? I am off work today, and was just reading my Washington Post:
ReplyDeleteStyle section Pg C2, Names & Faces:
"Thanks, but no thanks"
" A blog published by the Atlantic has obtained a list of bloggers barred from Sarah Palin events. Suspicions surfaced Wednesday during a book signing in Wasilla, Alaska, when two bloggers were denied entry. Talkingpointsmemo.com uncovered the list which includes bloggers Jesse Griffin and Shannyn Moore and photojournalist Dennis Zaki. A Palin spokeswoman did not respond for TPM's request for comment."
Pretty awesome!
OMG, as a professional woman, I am disgusted at the announcement that "America's Sweetheart" is coming to town. I would be infuriated at that description of me.
ReplyDeleteAmerica's Sweetheart - what a demeaning name, but that is how certain rabid fans think of her. A serious political contender for the second most powerful job in the world "Americas Sweetheart".
Shirley Temple, at age 6 or 7 was America's Sweetheart.
I am sure that she loved it though, right up there with Miss Wasilla and Miss Alaska runner up. If they can only scrounge up more $$$$, she will be there, you betcha.
In the Facebook screencap, Palin is referred to as "America's Sweetheart". WTF?
ReplyDeleteMary Pickford she ain't.
Maybe the RSVP response was just, well, tepid? No longer drawing crowds, your majesty?
ReplyDeleteGrandma68
Thanks Gryph
ReplyDeleteJust threw up a little in my mouth
I wanted to barf, too, when I read the "America's Sweetheart" line. Since when and who the hell gave her that title?
ReplyDeleteThey probably don't have enough $$$ to pay her or as seen on Hannity last night, she isn't as popular as everyone seems to think she is. I loved those responses when I read them and how the Palinbots were going crazy talking about how they should have been deleted from the show!
mommom
ReplyDeleteThat is the basic "mold" of the perfect ( in their opinion) that plastic surgeons try to achieve.
As for Sarah quitting...it is what she does best.
American's Sweetheart is better than calling her Governor Palin. She gave up that title when she had to give back the crown and sash. He fansite insists on calling her Governor when Sarah is the former governor who quit halfway through her obligation to serve her state. Can Sarah still be your sweetheart when she jilts you?
ReplyDeleteOnce again, who are these groups that, six weeks prior to an event still do not have firm yeas or nays from their invited speakers? Once again, the common thread in this pattern of "Sarah Palin's Comin'!" and then "Ut-uh I'm not" is not the event planners. it's ...SARAH PALIN!! This is a pattern, folks, and you are NUTS to make an invitation to her and expect you will be given a firm answer by a reasonable deadline by her.
ReplyDeleteIf I were anyone inviting her to speak, the invitation would come with a clear "If you do not confirm by such-and-such a date, we will assume that you have declined our invitation". Two days before that deadline, if I really wanted her, I would call with a reminder (and have the money person get back to her if I were not the person authorized to work money deals).
Put her feet to the fire. If she wants the engagements, she will do what she has to do to get them, which probably just means making a few phone calls to her agent or even just e-mailing Meg.
As I said on another post somewhere ... SHEESH!
You just read it wrong they meant to say: swarthy tart.
ReplyDeleteI think its about the money, Sarah won't do anything for free.
ReplyDeleteShe actually looks downright dangerous in that pic! Yes, that is how I am sure she and her bots think of her, as America's Sweetheart. A constant state of delusion is our Sister Sarah.
ReplyDeleteLynn Vincent's book about Palin has dropped in the lists, too. So yeah, her popularity is on the wane--and this is before the "other stuff" is out later this year. Her "bots" will never face it, but there are less of them now, not more.
ReplyDeleteI read the little Wash. Post article as well V.V. They reference TPM ( and the story is over a week old )and there has even been the actual copy of the banned list out there if they wanted to read it before writing THEIR story. Andree, who is on the list... NOT mentioned.
ReplyDeleteThey fact check like the ADN.
2nd.Go ahead and leave a comment on the Arkansas story about whatever you like. Looks like it is a Blogger account and you are already registered and recognized. I was. Be nice, but make your point. It is moderated BTW.
Have Fun.
The event probably will not be finalized until the organizers agree to two things: the "NO PRESS" clause and Todd's black list.
ReplyDeleteWhat Sarah bailed out again? Is she having more plastic surgery?
ReplyDeleteYeah, that's a good title for her, "America's sweetheart" of the teabaggers and all the crazies out there.
ReplyDeleteSaying s'error palin is "America's Sweetheart" is like saying that Warren Beatty is a virgin.
ReplyDeleteThe new book on Warren claims he's slept with nearly 13,000 women. But palin is not one of those. Even Warren has his standards.
Only a buck 75 a plate... man, has she ever fallen in value. How much of that did she want? Besides all of it. ...
America's Sweetheart!! Oh, that is one of the funniest things I've heard in awhile. Good stuff.
ReplyDeleteThat picture is frightening. What was going on there? She looks like she's about to spring and tear somebody limb from limb! Don't grate the caps together, Sarah, they're expensive!
A special shout out to Dennis Zaki for bring out the true S'error in that pix.
ReplyDeleteScarah which eye should eye be focused on ?
I predict that this is not going to be your year.
I'm just saying.
Her eyes are crossed...I can't tell where she is looking. Is it straight ahead or at the photographer? Either way, she looks pissed!
ReplyDeleteThat photo looks like she just hissed, "OBEY!"
ReplyDeleteIs that a piece of moose gristle stuck in her teeth?
ReplyDeletewhere did you get the picture, Gryph? She looks PISSED!!!
ReplyDeleteAmerica's Sweetheart? LMFAO!!!!
ReplyDeleteShe looks like she's in the middle of a psychotic break.
ReplyDeleteWhy has $arah Failing not been on any of the Sunday morning talk shows sharing her wisdom and vast knowledge? Meet The Press, etc. etc...
ReplyDeletelmao love that pic! it's perfect.
ReplyDeletenow my guess is that she's probably got a court date so she can't make the event.
poor sarah, such a victim of that "full court press."
"If they don't wheel out the Stapleton,"
ReplyDeleteAm I the only one picturing dear Meg on a dolly with a bite proof mask, a la Hannibal Lecter? Ugh.
Where was the pic taken? she looks really mad that someone didn't obey her. lol
ReplyDeleteI called the organization to get the real story. Gov / Preacher Huckabee had called them to register his protest. Because he was so offended at having the Quitter Grifter sweetiepie in his state, they called it off. But since the Quitter Grifter won't let anybody quit on her, she quit on them.
ReplyDeleteokay gryphen now I am reeeaallly LMFAO at that pic.
ReplyDeleteI was curious about the date so I clicked on it - yep, she's already had the teeth job. which makes me think that zaki took this pic after he had already began posting the iceberg rumors on his site.
hence the look from sarah! she is looking directly at him! ouch she hates his ass, lol.
"America's Sweetheart?" Someone send Palin's staff a memo reminding them about her age, plz.
ReplyDelete"Evangelical Pro-America's Granny", okay.
I wonder how often Todd and her kids see that angry face.
ReplyDeleteRun, save yourselves!!!!!!
Okay, "Pro-Also-America's Delusional Sweetheart and Leader of the Pee Warriors" would probably fly, too.
ReplyDeleteLast month, it was announced that Sarah would be paid $200,000 to speak at a Fundraiser for 2 Canadian Hospitals. The locals went NUTS .. (http://thespec.typepad.com/specthread/2009/12/palin-power.html) and the beneficiaries of the fundraiser will not be getting the $$$$
ReplyDeleteIt's worth reading that comment thread, to see how much Sarah is despised as a person by many who responded in outrage at Sarah's engagement. (of course, I held up the fort too!)
Unfortunately, they are probably commited to paying her, UNLESS 'something' breaks (hint hint Gryphen!) and causes her popularity to plunge even further!
Why anyone would pay huge amounts of $$$ to listen to Sarah blather her nonsense, is beyond me!
I guess you folks will admit you were wrong when this deal is held:
ReplyDeleteAt the risk of repeating myself, I want to clear up some inaccuracies floating around cyberspace on the Palin Arkansas event. According to my sources, the Palin event has not been finalized or cancelled. An excited insider posted the details on Facebook before the ink was dry on the event. Everyone I talked to still expects Palin to come to Arkansas but all the details have not yet been worked out.
Again, the event is not cancelled; it is just being finalized. Official announcement should be coming soon
Gryphen....I just can't wait for the news...My brain is scrambled with so many..what ifs...
ReplyDeleteWhen will the Big News Media break the story, also, too?
I practically live on your blog spot these days....Hurry Hurry
@7:18 - John Doe, call Huckabee's Headquarters and see if your info squares with his protest of booking Palin in Arkansas. Then report back to us, pretty please? Let's test how good your sources REALLY are.
ReplyDeleteI'd pay to see chucklebee dissect s'error.
ReplyDeleteHe'd point out how incomprehensible she is; she'd point out how he gave a murdering mofo a get out of prison free card... after which the mofo went to Washington state and killed 4 police officers. Not that s'error likes police officers. Just ask Walt Moneghan about that.
Anon at 7:36
ReplyDeleteIf you are referring John Doe back to Huckabee based on my comment let me tell you it was farce, sarcasm, wishful thinking.
Sorry for not being more obvious with a tall tale :)
But hey, there is still time to get to Huckabee. Go for it.
mxm, satirical or not, it's an excellent mission for John Doe to call Huckabee and ask about it, wouldn't you agree?
ReplyDeletehey anon at 10:10,
ReplyDeleteyeah, John Doe could do with a little exercise.
And for Hucks staff, cause I would bet the farm that you read these blogs frequently, you still have time to raise hell.
And for Romney's team, we know you are chuckling and would like nothing better than for Sarah to show up as America's Sweetheart right smack dab in AR.
But, now you listen here Team Pawlenty, you could be next.
This pic looks like it was taken on Quittin' Day, when she was extra weird. Her lipstick has been chewed right off!
ReplyDeleteThis is the Sarah face the family and co-workers see, not the posed grins, smiles and warmth at the book signings.
ReplyDeleteMy girlfriend had more charisma than Quittypants, but when she was alone with family she was a terror. Having Sarah at home with Todd and family will probably be the worst thing the Palin family could have to endure. This is a woman who likes to issue orders and now it is family who bears the burden of her wishes and desires.
Could you be happy living with the witch of Wasilla?
thinner upper lip, how she would look without the injected fat.
ReplyDeletewonky eye looks wonkier than usual.
I wonder if it wanders more than usual if she is ticked off.
Not an opthamologist don't know how a wandering eye wanders.
Isn't she a little old to be "America's sweetheart"?
ReplyDeleteThat title is usually given to young up-and-coming tween stars.
I just heard Taylor Swift referred to as America's Sweetheart....she is 17.
How embarassing, Palin. You are old and you are trying to pretend you are young. HA!
