Joe Miller may have been extremely hesitant to endorse Sarah Palin for President, but he DID endorse her for Vice President back in 2008. So take THAT Todd!

"I did endorse her before I didn't endorse her."
This love letter to Sarah Palin from Joseph Miller, Esq comes to us courtesy of the Catholic News Agency, and it was posted on September 11, 2008. (What is it about 9-11 and these people?)

Essentially it strokes her ego with a velvet glove by praising her for her "mavericky" approach to governing Alaska.

Sarah’s entry onto the scene was out-of-the box, to put it mildly. She displaced former U.S. Senator Frank Murkowski from the Governor’s mansion and immediately set out to reverse years of preferential oil company policies. She rejected the oil companies’ gas pipeline plan in favor of an open, competitive process that resulted in the first concrete steps to significant gas production in Alaska. When one of the oil companies failed to develop a gas and oil lease that it had held for decades, she began forfeiture proceedings against it.

Of course as we all know, and Joe McGinniss brilliantly pointed out in his 2009 article "Pipe Dreams," Palin's "out-of-the-box" approach to building the gas pipeline was ultimately doomed.  But that detail hardly mattered because Miller was endorsing her for a job that would take her far, far away from Prudhoe Bay, Alaskan energy concerns,  and our frigid political landscape.

Miller then goes on to blow wind up Sarah's skirt, and throw undeserved accolades her way, but it is the final paragraph of this article which earned it a place here on IM.

So what about the people who know her, her constituents? Unlike the disgruntled political adversaries and oil company lobbyists, real Alaskans from all political stripes endorse her with a resounding 80% approval rating, the highest of any governor nationwide. Why? Because they know she’ll never sell out. Pundits concerned about her advancement to the Oval Office should take some comfort in that.

When you can finally climb back up onto your chair after rolling around laughing on the floor, and have wiped the tears from your eyes, you might want to go ahead and give yourself a little pat on the back if you were one of the millions of people who knew immediately that Sarah Palin was unfit for any national office.  Because that realization makes you much, much smarter than the idiot that is currently attempting to win one of Alaska's open Senate seats.

And there you have another example of just HOW Joe Miller became Sarah Palin's "butt-boy."  Although one who STILL just cannot bring himself to wholeheartedly endorse her for President.

As Todd Palin would say, "Bad butt-boy, bad!"

    Sarah (back when she was Sarah to those of us who didn't know her that well) displaced a major jerk. Frank Murkowski was a colossal d*** who was too good and uppity to talk to his own constituents. Andrew Halcro would have been better-- hell, BINKY of FBKS would have been better as CEO of AK, but it was nice to see a Goliath be brought down by "our Sarah." Sarah is now Frank in drag with a boob job and more props.

    Shady Joe knew what she was and latched on to her gravy (milk? Ewwwwwe) train. Can you blame him? We can blame the voters of Alaska if he gets elected, and thank the bloggers who are bringing to light what should be the lamestream's job and was their job before the consolidation of the media outlets.

    Where Christine O'Donnell has classified information: She's Mormon.

    Take this clip about her statement about china:

    The information, the "Briefings" she has had, comes from Mormon church missionaries.

    Gryphen, thanks for the compliment, I disliked Sarah from the moment I heard her speak at the Republican convention, and I've disliked her more as I've learned more about her. Both my husband and I tagged her as a phony in that first speech.

    Have you seen this? I know my comment is O/T but if you doubt that Sister Sarah is running, watch it.

    Maybe he felt safe endorsing way back then because he knew she and McCain wouldn't win.

    That way, he could butter her up when she came back to Alaska to serve out her term and could reward his loyalty with a cushy promotion into one of those lovely, lovely jobs she doled out to her friends.

    Guess he was surprised when she fled before really rewarding him as he felt he deserved, so the Senate endorsement was his consolation prize. Maybe she endorsed him knowing he couldn't win either. Wouldn't that be a nice irony?

    That statement is not true. Frank Murkowski's admin went after Exxon for Pt. Thomson - NOT PALIN.
