As many of you predicted Sarah Palin did indeed seem to have been given the questions ahead of time in order to script a few intelligent responses. Sadly THOSE were apparently her idea of "intelligent responses."
Perhaps one of the most striking things that I noticed while viewing the numerous pictures and videos taken at this event were the physical changes that seemed to have occurred in the last few weeks.
Here take a look and tell me what you think.
And remember these are all from yesterdays Q & A.
Can you say "Forced smile?"
Wow! She looks like she has aged ten years in only ten weeks. I wonder what could be causing her so much stress that it would have taken such an obvious toll?
It seems clear to me that Palin is rapidly losing the only appeal she really ever had to attract the horny white male Republicans that make up her base. And let's face it once her looks have faded beyond the reach of cosmetic surgery's tweaks and tucks there will be nothing to distract the people from the stupidity that falls from her lipstick smeared maw like piles of warm moist moose nuggets. (Was that as much fun to read as it was to write?)
Boy this new idea of having carefully orchestrated question and answer time sure is working out well for Snowdrift Snooki, don'tcha think?
Hmm I wonder who
from looking at the pics i came to the conclusion that she is being medicated big time.
ReplyDeleteYa know, there's only so much plastic surgery one can have before they start looking like a freak. I guess those in charge overdid it in their zealous attempt at having Miss Thing appear younger and younger to attract her bottom-feeding "base." And NO stress or chemical abuse is a huge factor in the healing process (this explained to me by a friend who, sadly, had an expensive facelift procedure eradicated by heavy alcohol use in less than a year).
ReplyDeleteI guess some recent revelations are contributing to the collagen slippage, eh, Queenie?
BTW, hubby and I watched footage on O'Donnell last night. We noticed how agitated she looked and how stiffly she sat in her chair while she yapped. Running low on the meds and paranoid that the earwire would pop out was our guess.
"...the stupidity that falls from her lipstick smeared maw like piles of warm moist moose nuggets. (Was that as much fun to read as it was to write?)"
ReplyDeleteYES! Does that make SP "Mama Maw"?
"Todd’s getting kind of tired of doing it all for me” Sarah Palin
ReplyDeleteI wonder who was able to convince her to agree to the questions in public, and to study. That is uncharacteristic of her . The Haitian telecom grifter who's the PAC chief now?
ReplyDeleteI was surprised at how fat her face was! Is that overall weight gain (black strategically chosen to hide that?) or one giant fat injection to her face? Lips looked plumped.
ReplyDeleteDespite her word salad improvement, she still makes no sense, offers nothing.
Hurrae, hurrae, step right up, get your tickets!
ReplyDeleteAnd see the One Trick Sparkle Pony do her infamous routine, this new show features scandalous peekaboo forbidden glimpses seen heretofore only at exclusive seedy dives. All new show, all new show.
Yahsir, step right up, tickets goin fast, half-price, half-price, last chance.
Props to whoever pegged the "Wonder Woman" bracelet...totally on point. If we mention it enough on this blog, how much you wanna bet it disappears? It actually looks like it's made of white plastic...at least Wonder Woman's was gold:
ReplyDeletehttp://dailypostal.com/2010/06/30/wonder-woman-new-costume/
Good god, Sarah, while you're in NYC, please go into Manhattan and get yourself a real haircut...your hair looks like a rat's nest. While your at it, head on over to Saks or Bloomingdales, meet with a personal shopper and spend these good people's money on some decent, well tailored clothes. You should be ashamed of your appearance...and maybe next time your on a raised platform, wear a pantsuit. I kept waiting for the Sharon Stone moment.
Hurrae, Hurrae, step right up! Get your tickets for the all new same old Sparkle Pony show. Watch the scandalous peekaboo glimpse shots never seen heretofore out side of seedy dives.
ReplyDeleteHurrae, hurrae, Last chance. Half price half price. Last chance.
Good grief, could she have given any more beaver shots?
ReplyDeleteAll to distract from her ever-present word salad and how really aged she's becoming.
Won't work, Twitler.
"I'm not a witch!?"
ReplyDeleteI don't usually comment on her looks but yee gawd! That last picture of her is really creepy. She looks at least 60 years old. The camera makes her hair gray and her neck----eeeeek!
ReplyDeleteMy wife doesn't look that bad and she is almost 70. Sarah is 47? couldn't prove it with that picture.
Lunatic ramblings sums it up. And what was up with the flailing hand gestures?
ReplyDeleteHer ramblings on the deficit, debt, she didn't know the difference....were just scary. Of course a big debt is bad, thanks, we needed YOU to tell us that!
Will RAM get thrown under the bus or will it be the new chief of staff? On the Huff Post page there was a picture of her from this speech and a picture of Michelle Obama side by side. Now we know why she hates Michelle cause Michelle looked young, charming and classy. Sarah looks like someone that was just let out of a mental institution. Could it be all this stuff coming out about Todd and male/female prostitutes and Bristol having another baby?
ReplyDeleteI wonder if Palin is still laundering money thru Sarahpac and she hired this new guy to clean it up. Wasn't she paying Todd a huge sum and she must have been paying Bristol also cause there is no way that Bristol could have made 6.2 million this year. We know what Bristol made on dwts and her speeches so Sarah has to have paid her big bucks also too.
Sarah also said she had been entertaining a congressman in her cabin. WTF made her admit to that one?
ReplyDeleteSarah... grift on!
ReplyDeleteDid Bristol do a Tango on stage as the opening act?
PLEASE... drop the iceberg on them NOW!
That long stringy ass hair of Sarah is a fright. Why doesn't she spend some money and get that shit cut short because she is getting old and wears her hair like teenagers. Her clothes never fit properly and she dresses like a whore, a cheap one at that.
ReplyDeleteSo Scarah thinks she is an energy expert? She just can't help but give stupid answers cause everyone knows she knows chit about energy.
ReplyDeleteSaw Bristol in the clip and she looks really rough too. Guess being pregnant and childbirth ain't so easy on this mother of 3.
Why do I feel like I'm watching an episode of " Jay-walking"? I know, because I'm watching someone who is clueless. Did I hear correctly that her research of President Obama's budget consisted of Bristol googling it?!? And she admits that? How much did CPAC get billed for that quality advising? To say that she runs an amateur, rinky-dink operation is an overstatement!
ReplyDeleteSo now she's trying to dictate what reporters should write and what they shouldn't? Here's some free advice, Sarah: If you don't want people to focus on the dumb things you say, don't say them. Obviously, she knew she was about to say something dumb....AND STILL SAID IT!
The only strategy she uses is to scheme. I don't think she understands what bright people are or that they even exist. She sees intelligent questioning as picking on her and then continues to BS people the way she always has, even though her poll numbers say it isn't working anymore. She can't adjust her strategy because it's beyond her capability.
Sarah is trying to instigate violence on First Lady Michelle Obama by constantly ridiculing her and her family. If something happens to the Obama family, Sarah will be locked up for life. Rumor is that Sarah has been put on the FBI watch list because of previous incidents that she has instigated.
ReplyDeleteI watched this last night on LOD and you're right. She looks terrible but that is what happens when you spew so much hate ... the ugliness starts seeping through every pore. She has aged exponentially in the past 6 months, in my opinion. Either that or her plastic surgeon absolutely hates her.
ReplyDeleteI think the whole short-skirt-biker-chick look was her idea so she could still appear "youthful" to the old, horny republican men who make up her base and send her $$$$. But wait, there's more ... she slipped in her "having to buy cases of diapers" to remind them she is YOUNG, DAMNIT!! Oh, and the gratuitous beaver shots.
That's our $arah ... soooo classy!
Someone, please, get rid of this bitch!
She really looks like hell and the leather jacket emphasises the drawn look on her face. Her hair really is crappy too but I suppose you can chalk that up to all the fussing with it that they had to do to hide the earpiece. She is starting to look really old and used. All she needs is a bad bleach job, a tube top, a pack of More cigarettes and a PT cruiser to complete the transition.
ReplyDeleteI thought I was the only one who noticed her aging - I've not seen it anywhere else. In the last pic, she looks haggard and spiteful. And the "ropes" in her neck are really pronounced, as well as she looks like she's starting to turn grey.
ReplyDeleteGranted, the lighting certainly wasn't the best!
Sarah bara Buccula
ReplyDeleteIn these photos Palin indeed looks different. Perhaps it is due to too many desserts and s'more meals? Ha ha
ReplyDeleteSeriously, from my female perspective, personal style mistakes and wisdom acquired Palin appears to be underweight which is Unflattering for her. A black leather jacket worn as a suit jacket without a layering piece underneath is harsh and difficult to pull off even for a twenty something. There was rational for selecting the impeccably fitting edgy modern red leather jacket of quality on the campaign trail and Palin looked lovely, contemporary, casually elegant.
The hair is a miss....mistake for Palin. The color and highlight job is harsh and too dark for her complexion which is aging for middle age woman. Just saying from personal experience when a hairdresser screwed up color and I looked ten years older. Palin's hair extensions focus attention away from her attractive face virtually framing her neck further framed by black leather.... Overall drawing a spotlight to her neck not her best feature.
The male up was not adjusted for the Unflattering dark too long stringy looking Elvira hair. A drastic color change Necessitate make up change to enhance the
person...another miss.
This look is overdone in "badass elements misused leather jacket+too short a skirt+wicked hair+leopard+harshakeup...gag flag bracelet minus a broom and her words a poisoned apple.
If I were Bristol's mom I'd look distraught about the chin job more than possible spousal infidelity.
Boy, she looks like she's not washing her hair or maybe not even bathing. Her neck looks like a turkey's neck! She's looking pretty bad! Makin' millions of bucks is hard work for her and its taking its toll on her! You can sure see it in her physical appearance. When you're ugly on the inside, it begins to show on the outside. You are right, Gryphen, as soon as her looks are gone, she'll lose those horny, white men who are just as hollow and empty headed as she is because they think with their -- well, you know. I can't wait until we get to the point where we say, "Sarah Palin who? Never heard of her."
ReplyDeleteTry this.
ReplyDeleteHear fox news. Don't listen to the words, hear it.They all sound angry
Hear malicious malkin and rush limbaugh. The tone is angry
They are angry people. Sarah palin has that tone. Angry.
Plus if you listen to her, she still does not have a plan. Time tested, common sense, conservative, constitution based?
What plan is that?
PS. Glenn beck has a nasty and angry tone and sounds crazy.
the skirt can always get shorter, so Palin still has options.
ReplyDeleteHer looks are gone. How to tell? All the men are bored with her in the audience. As is Todd.
ReplyDeleteJust wonderin', when was the last time Sarah wore her wedding ring?
ReplyDeleteI really don't think we should be talking about her looks. Age happens. Especially the neck thing on women. There's plenty of other things to criticize: her intelligence, lack of morals, etc. Let's concentrate on those lest we end up looking like the losers.
ReplyDeleteI admit I didn't watch the whole video, but in the first half at least, she seems completely unhinged. She is just spewing talking points like a malfunctioning robot. Does she really believe that's all she needs to do to show she is fit for office? Does she really believe she is saying something? I can't decide which is worse: She is so cynical she believes the American people are dumb enough to buy her ridiculously empty rhetoric or she is so delusional she actually thinks she has solutions to our national problems.
ReplyDeleteDoes anyone else think she looked like she's strung out on speed? Her speech and breathing were typical of a person on speed.
ReplyDeleteI didn't didn't see Bristol, but I have a hunch that "she" is being trotted around to tamp out pregnancy stories. And I'm not convinced, like you are G, that a double has not been used at times. It almost seems, that from reading this blog, they felt Willow needed to go to the Santa Barbara event to prove that she is not a stand-in. They really do not want Bristol to lose one of her easy $ sources (what ever happend to the radio job... too much like work?) I wonder how transparent the CPAC accounting records are. I suspect that they are being had.
ReplyDeleteYesterday's breast milk comment certainly adds to the list of Sarah's classic statements, but I have to say, I think that her most damaging comments recently were from her "Spud Nut" interview. That was her target audience so I think it may have had the biggest impact.
"She is so cynical she believes the American people are dumb enough to buy her ridiculously empty rhetoric or she is so delusional she actually thinks she has solutions to our national problems."
ReplyDeleteThat really is the question of the day, isn't it?
The NY Daily News article Fridy focused on the Brand's slap at Michelle Obama. It did not go over well. Some of the LIA crowd guffawed, but a friend who was there said most people were silent. (Where did she think she was in a Red State, even LI went for Obama)
ReplyDeleteBecause she kept the cameras so far away, the silhouette the DN used of her with a death grimace is very, uh, degraded. Next to a photo of Michelle, the Brand looks awful, withered, mean, overly made up, with a crepe neck.
And on her left fist is a ring that doesn't look like the ring Todd would have given her.
The Q&A with LIA prez Kevin Law didn't serve her well. It was clear she hadn't prepared all that well for it. She did get out a reasonable explanation of Social Security.
The local yokel paper in Long Island is Newsday. Here is the lead from its story on her:
"Starting around the 10-minute mark, you felt as if you were watching a late-night infomercial. Instead of touting vitamins or exercise equipment, Sarah Louise Heath Palin, appearing on Long Island, pitched the commodity known as herself."
She is beginning to look like the joker.. oh..almost forgot, she is a joker!
ReplyDeleteSeriously, i think the reason paylin has to rebutt what other people say is that she has no original constructive thougths only hateful ones.
"mother of the year" paylin slamming michelle on breast feeding.
And another quote from the Long Island newspaper, Newsday. This was a business reporter working the folk in the room.
ReplyDeleteZimmerman is Robert Zimmerman, a local public relations type who handles political clients.
"She's the Lady Gaga of national politics," Zimmerman said. "But Lady Gaga is more coherent. She's [Palin's] not a credible national figure."
Another media type, John Kominicki, an LIA board member and publisher of Long Island Business News, took another tack. Palin, he said, was "refreshing," but added, "I don't know if she's presidential material."
Well hush ma mouth. Lady Gaga of politics.
This is from the Newsday editorial. I think no one was fooled, even the geezers and modelizers in the room where she spoke. Sadly, the Brand dropped into the center of her beloved lamestream. In the highly competitive world of New York metro journalism, no one can afford to pull punches as they can in Flashlight, Texas.
ReplyDelete"The world according to Sarah Palin is a very simple place. All the United States really needs to get back on track is common sense, lower taxes, smaller government and a little mother-style multitasking in the corridors of power.
"Righting the struggling economy and setting a course for the nation in a complex, fast-moving world won't be that easy, of course. But her message is clearly a comfort for some ...
"This was Sarah Palin, the celebrity and possible presidential candidate, intent on breaking the mold — down to her slingback, peeky-toe, cheetah-print shoes... .
"If she does run, she'll have to deal with complexity. But for now, she's in Sarah Palin's world."
The first thing I noticed about photos is that she looks
ReplyDeleteOLD and haggard, like a bony witch. Not attractive!!
The stoopid ensues from the paylump.
ReplyDeleteI frankly thing Sarah had "work" done before she became governor. The pictures we see of her in high school and college show that she wasn't very pretty at a time when most women look their best. But having started going under the knife young, she's now reaching that Hollywood stage, where you look great in flattering lighting and from straight on, but in the wrong lighting or in profile you look like a freak.
ReplyDeleteSaw the TV news clip with Bristol in the audience. This definitely was Brisket, but unfortunately some guy's head was in the way so you couldn't see her chin. Perhaps the swelling has gone down.
one more time @5:25. It is wrong and sexist to criticize intelligent, honest, hardworking women for their looks or their aging. I wouldn't dream of doing so to Hilary (although everyone commented on her hair clip.) Olympia Snowe, Ruth Bader Ginsburg, even Condi Rice - would all be off limits because looks aren't what they're selling and not how they got where they are. But looks are all that $carah has, had, to offer. Fair game to point out that what she's offering is well past its expiration date.
ReplyDeleteHer face has been stuffed full of fillers.....maybe fat. The formless fat face does not match with the scrawny corded neck. Her make-up is trowled on...looking like a tranny. A tranny would never go out in public looking that bad though.
ReplyDeleteWhy isn't Bristol at home providing a stable environment for her chilr(ren)?
ReplyDeleteOh yeah, the nanny can do that. Off to party!!
Bristol did not make 6.2 mil. Whoever did those numbers was calculating ABCs advertising and the pr that Bristol brought. I don't even think she made 1 mil. It hasn't been proven and it's a stretch for her to be making 15-30k. Didn't an org already refute the notion they paid her an over the top price?
ReplyDeleteMy guess as to what may be stressing her out is the babygate revelation. Anything else she can work with. But if the true mother is revealed, Sarah's not the only one who will feel humiliation. However, with that said, I still think people won't pay it much mind. except her internet stalkers.
People who know the family intimately already know the truth. The number's not that small. She will fight tooth and nail to avoid speaking that truth, even if it continues to make her look like woman who risked her pregnancy
If Grifter Jr. Bristol made 6mil last year - why did she just buy a 250K home in a dumpy area?
ReplyDeleteSumthing ain't right. Math, perhaps?
She had filler, like Juvederm, injected in her marionette lines under her mouth. That's where those lumps come from. You can feel them inside your mouth. That's what her tongue keeps playing with.
ReplyDeleteOlivia says @ 4:18 am
ReplyDeleteLol, lordy. Next time please give us fair warning, that was too funny and made my day after I about busted a gut. You are so wicked today and we are lovin every bit of it.
All that darkness really is good for showing the Maleficent that she is. I looked up Maleficent (Walt Disney's Sleeping Beauty--the evil witch) and in talking about the way her character was developed the article said they tried to get "so much innuendo mixed with the fierce power". Wiki defines innuendo as a baseless invention of thoughts or ideas. It can also be a remark or question, typically disparaging (also called insinuation), that works obliquely by allusion. In the latter sense, the intention is often to insult or accuse someone in such a way that one's words, taken literally, are innocent.
ReplyDeleteWow, she looks AWFUL!
ReplyDeleteSomething about that third picture makes me think of the wicked old lady from Snow White... you know, when the queen transforms herself into the little old lady to feed Snow White the poison apple?
Wow. Just to drive this point home. Sarah could no more be tied to an attack on Lady Obama+fam than Gryphen for an attack on Sarah+fam. ACtually, if Sarah or fam is attacked, Gryphen or one of you readers is probably a whole lot more liable and likely perp. Laying out criticism is not attacking, or harsh humor aka comedians wouldnt be accepted. I dont understand how you can be so insulted at repubs treatment of Obama when dems treated Bush SOOOO much worse. Maher anyone? Hypocrits
ReplyDeleteAnd, why is she still buying diapers? Both her grandchildren are old enough to be potty trained. Or hasn't the nanny got around to it yet?
ReplyDeleteSarah didn't look or seem stressed at the Reagan thing or during the super bowl party. I would imagine it all has to do with babygate, as that involves more people than her. Remember, it's not a huge secret. People were in the know. And Sarah will fight to keep the mother a secret.
ReplyDeleteAnon @ 6:35: So are you saying now the Palin party line is: "Yeah, she lied about having her fifth child, big deal. Her inner circle has known all along."
ReplyDeletePeople don't like being lied to. "Hard-working Americans' have given Palin their trust and their hard-earned money and they won't appreciate her deceiving them.
Chenagrrl - 5:52 am
ReplyDeleteThanks for that info, you always do a great job giving us info. Have a great week-end.
I dont think Bristol and a Chin job. Lipo yes. I had lipo when I was 22 because I have an oval face and always carried chin fat despite leading an active lifestyle. Even toning and remaining fit doesn't affect much facial change (im talking chin area), unless unhealthy measures are taken. Thats really all the work Bristol's had done. It's not even plastic surgery is it? There was no structural modification, just fat suckage.
ReplyDeleteAnd remember also too, Sarah took old as fuck around 2005, which was probably the time she started spa treatments. She still has a square jaw.The only thing I'd warn young people against is breast augmentation, unless it's for health reasons. you're the size you are for a reason. Anything bigger and you're going to look awkward.Instilling this principle in teens minds will no doubt help with the other body issues. And obliterating hollywood would help as well.
Cheetah-print shoes, now that really says it all. Her black leather jacket looked white-ish shiny like in the pictures, not very becomming at all.
ReplyDeleteI see the Palin-bots have arrived to tell us not to slam her looks. She has gotten press and a pass because of her looks in the past. If she hadn't been good-looking before then no one would have given her the time of day.
Hey Palinbots, tell your grifter stupid ugly queen to quit slamming the First Lady. Sarah really looks very jealous of Michelle Obama.
What an ugly cheap plastic looking flag bracelet. Bet she bought it from a Wonder Woman Fan Club. It stands out like a sore thumb.
Sarah was trying to let the old cooters there see her flag thong by lifting her legs up and opening them.
ReplyDeleteFans of the TV show "The Office" might remember a program aired during Season 3 where Phyllis and Karen get a makeover before visiting an important client. Their makeup is garish, and they have what used to be called "big hair." They look ridiculous. Then, we see the photo of the important client's wife on his desk. They have made themselves look just like her to appeal to him and get his business.
ReplyDelete"The Office" is fiction. However, the moral of the story is that Sarah is not dressing for us. She has not chosen as sleek, professional appearance. She has millions of dollars, and yet she does not have a style expert to advise her on a flattering hairdo, makeup and clothing. Sarah is dressing for a particular audience who is turned on by a black leather biker jacket, a short short skirt, and messy bedroom hair.
Sarah has also not bothered to a speech coach. Whoever is pulling the strings behind the scenes wants Sarah to stay "authentic," and appeal to that solid right wing base that thinks she looks and sounds just right.
As for Todd being her chief of staff, that would account for all of the stupid blunders from cross hairs to blood libel. I don't give him that much credit. If he was acting as chief, that would be to justify his salary paid by SarahPAC. Bristol, accompanying her mother instead of raising her son, is another expense paid by SarahPAC. If the people want to keep throwing away their money, I mean, donating to Sarah, they are stupid enough to be fooled by her nasty language and tacky clothing.
I wonder if she has been that grey for awhile and she just colored it or if this is something sudden. She will also probably fake another pregnancy so she can show us that she is still sexy and Toad loves her.
ReplyDeleteObviously, no one taught her that if you're going to wear makeup darker than your natural skin tone, you should bring it down your neck as well. She looks like she's wearing a tan mask. It's the eye - forget everything else - just look a those cold, arrogant eyes. And . . . OMG . . . is that LEATHER? She's as presidential as a retired porn star.
ReplyDeleteListen, I despise Palin as much as the rest of you commenters here. But your snarking on her looks is not coming across well. I think it's fine to comment that it looks like she's had Botox (it does look that way to me) or that her outfit was inappropriate for presidential campaigning, but I don't think comments about "turkey neck" and "beaver shots" is helpful or appropriate. We don't do this to male candidates. Things are getting really sexist and I think that's dangerous to the cause of bringing her down based upon credible and non-discriminatory charges.
ReplyDeleteAnd no, I'm not a Palinbot. Get a grip. If I or someone disagrees with a commenter here it's nothing more than that. Let's remember our ideals and standards and apply them to ourselves.
I was thinking that a cowboy hat and some rhinestones on that top might be a nice touch.

Can we please lay off the nasty comments about signs of SP's aging?
ReplyDeleteI get that her looks indicate state of mind. I get that she's gotten where she is largely because of her looks.
BUT, as a woman in her early 50s, I'm taken aback by the viciousness of comments about signs of aging. This is sexism, my fellow progressives! Limbaugh, Beck, Maher, and so many other pundits--none of them is exactly Adonis, but when people criticize them they focus on their dumb/hateful words and actions, not their jowls.
Excellent insight into yesterday's LI performance:

"The Picture of Dorian Gray" anyone? It seems like the cover has been lifted from the portrait, and the hidden life has been writ large upon the face of the subject! I think too much of the real Palin is being exposed, and the image is starting to crack. This woman is aging in dog years now.
ReplyDeleteOn another note ..... has anyone ever heard her explain exactly what "common sense, constitutional" solutions are? It would be lovely to have her spell out actual workable strategies to counter-point her Obama attacks, rather than tired sound bites.
-Ali
I think the "F$%& Me" leopard print shoes say it all. She's not professional and not dignified enough to be president. The short skirt and awful shoes are fine for a "celebrity", but not for a wannabe politician or wannabe President. Is that how she'll dress for functions with important dignitaries? I can't think of any other reason she would wear those shoes and short skirt unless she was trying to distract the men in the audience from what she was saying. It was definitely a "Sharon Stone " moment.
ReplyDeleteMaybe Bristol is her new stylist. She sure seems to be dressing like someone in their 20's and not late 40's.
For those of you who wish we would not comment on Palin's appearance, may I remind you that it seems her appearance is the only part of the package where she is vulnerable. Comments about her stupidity don't seem to bother her.
ReplyDeleteThose of us who are posting on this blog want her to step off the national stage, preferably wearing an orange jumpsuit for the next dozen or so years.
Her simplistic rhetoric of assembling a mishmash of talking points that cumulatively make no sense is offensive and would not have been tolerated for five minutes if she had been unattractive. She knows her looks matter and utilized her push-up bra as mayor when she wanted to persuade others to do her bidding. Many of us who grew up in an era where women could not have a reasonable chance of being elected anything beyond the high school PTA president are appalled that this creature is still getting paid to spout her inanities.
And furthermore it is disgusting how she knowingly dresses like a tramp, wearing skirts so short that those in the audience are treated to crotch shots. Leather, peekaboo shoes, and heavy makeup are how porn stars dress, not political candidates.
Michele Bachmann, though I loathe her politics, always looks elegant and classy. Palin could take a lesson from her. Bachmann managed to get through law school, albeit a Christian law school, and did pass the bar, so she's miles ahead of Sarah and her dubious degree. Bachmann also speaks in sentences with a subject and object and her voice is not nearly so grating.
Sarah doesn't have the intellectual capacity to understand issues. She doesn't know the difference between the debt and the deficit. All Sarah has to offer is sex and that is fading fast. She dresses like a hooker and piles on phony hair and plastered on makeup. Ironically the prostitute that Todd was palling around with has a natural look, not a plastic look like his wife. So if we criticize Sarah's looks, it's all she's offering, you betcha.
What happened to her in Arizona? Thought she was all lounged out in that big mansion? Is their trouble cause Bristol was pregnant? Are they giving the baby away? Something is going on in this family and it is causing a big ruckus. They keep bringing out photos of Willow and Bristol and trying to pretend that everything is normal. Well, it isn't.
ReplyDeleteI cannot believe the get up she wore yesterday! The outfit was bad enough but the shoes?!? And to think this was her first "screech" she allowed the press into.
ReplyDeleteSarah dressed for her visit to the East Coast like she thinks it's all the Jersey Shore.
ReplyDeleteThe unflattering photo is Photoshopped and not a very good job of it either.
ReplyDeleteAs much as I can not stand this individual, who gives a flying crap about her make-up, hair or boobs. Wrapping herself in the flag or patriotic wonder woman bracelet appeals to her base but does nothing to raise the conversation or debate about her beliefs.
You should be afraid of her character, her politics, her ethics or lack there of.
All these comments about her personal style, no matter how unprofessional, take away from the what we should all be concerned with, that she has injected herself into the conversation and has traction with some of the American public.
Her handlers know this and will play it for everything it is worth until a suitable candidate declares.
Unfortunately, she knows this as well and is going to play it for all it's worth. Her teases about being a candidate have not gone un-noticed and it is a game for the party big wigs to keep the money flowing.
Focus on her character or lack of it. It's the only way people will begin to understand the sham and shame that is SP.
6:55 - Bush was attacked for his stupidity and lying - both things he presumably could have changed or chosen a job where the stupidity didn't matter.
ReplyDeletePresident Obama has been attacked for who he is - as in a non-white President. The same for Mrs. Obama.
Down's Syndrome children do need to wear diapers.
ReplyDeleteOk, for those of you complaining that the remarks about her looks are sexist or mean or whatever. If she looked like Susan Boyle, people would listen to her and she would have been gone a long time ago. She used her looks to get this far, she uses her looks to stay in the public eye. You say we don't do this to male politicians? I've never seen a beaver shot from a male politician. I have never seen a male politician wear faux cheetah f*ck me now shoes. You want to know the difference between Hillary and Sarah? Hillary has brains, education, can form proper sentences and wears pants suits. Sarah can't talk, can't read, can't think, but shows her legs, licks her tongue and digs out the pushup bra and gets all the attention she craves. She has implicitly given permission to rag on her looks, including her rapidly aging wattle neck and her greasy bedroom hair.
ReplyDelete@ 8:15 One more time: Her looks are fair game because that's all she has and she keeps putting them front and center. Criticizing a woman who dresses and acts her age for looking her age would be vicious - I would be the first to call out those who would do so to Condi Rice, Olympia Snowe, Ruth Bader Ginsbrug, Hilary Clinton. Those women could lose their looks completely and still have something to offer - not so $carah.
ReplyDeletePossible insight into Palin's aggressive behavior:
ReplyDeleteThere is something inherently more repulsive and unbelievable about a female sociopath. Women by nature are preprogrammed to learn empathy and care-taking, the antithesis of sociopathic behavior. Indeed, one of the best indicators of sociopathy in a women is seen when the woman fails to care for her own child. It would seem then, that we would all be revolted by a female sociopath, so why do men become victims?
My own theory, which has been corroborated by many men who have written to Lovefraud, is that men accidentally fall victim to sociopathic women when they have sex with them. You see, normal men experience bonding just like normal women-especially when the sex is good. The sex with a female sociopath (I’m told) isn’t just good, it’s better than most mortal men have ever hoped for. Once hooked on the female sociopath, men become victims just as much as the women who become hooked on the male sociopath.
Why are successful female sociopaths so sexual and so sexually appealing? Science does have some answers for us here. Testosterone which is elevated in many male sociopaths is also elevated in female sociopaths. Studies of non-disordered women indicate that higher testosterone levels are associated with increased sex drive, increased sexual activity and YES sexual attractiveness to men! High testosterone makes both male and female sociopaths sexually appealing. Testosterone may also be related to the lack of parenting behavior seen in sociopathic women. Women with higher testosterone have been found to be less interested in motherhood.
Men who have married and fathered children with sociopathic women face special challenges. They deserve all our love and support. The courts often do not recognize that a sociopathic woman is incapable of functioning as a mother. Fathers are left to helplessly watch as precious children suffer at the hands of their mother.
The courts would be wise to get smart and take heed because studies of adopted children reveal a terrible truth about female sociopaths. Female sociopaths carry stronger genes for the disorder than do males. A mother is more likely to pass this trait to children she has never met than is a father.

Sarah is a real-life specimen in a college class on sociopathy. I just wish more people were aware of this. Most people are duped, including the press, politicians, etc.
Some sociopaths live their destructive paths to a ripe old age and some don't.
ReplyDeleteHer answers are clearly "prepared". You can tell when someone is thinking on their feet or regurgitating something memorized, and clearly it's the latter here. You just don't get the sense that she's processing anything when she talks. She lacks genuine engagement.
ReplyDeleteGood luck with that in 2012 Sarah, you retard.
Sarah Palin didn't announce her 2012 intentions, but she was presidential as a crowd draw, organizers of yesterday's Long Island Association event said.
ReplyDeletePalin brought in roughly the same number of attendees as Bill Clinton did last fall at a similar gathering, not just to the luncheon but to the pricey grip-and-grin reception beforehand, LIA president Kevin Law told POLITICO.
"It was comparable," he said of the reception, adding the biggest crowd the LIA ever had was when the two former Presidents Bush spoke together last spring. "We only had three-and-a-half weeks to market this."
Law, who did the questioning of Palin and said she told him she enjoyed it, wouldn't say precisely what amounts people ponied up for the chance to shake Palin's hand during the 25-minute reception. But he did say about 50 people paid at least $5,000 — and in some cases up to $50,000 — to shake her hand and make small talk with her on a receiving line. That money goes to the LIA.

Finally looked at the leopard print shows. YIKES! I think I saw that same exact pair on a hooker in Vegas. Do you think Sarah is trying to compete with the one of Todd's hookers trying to get her man back? Not a good look for a 47 year old presidential wannabe.
ReplyDeleteSure not seeing or hearing anything about the Toad (as related to his wife). Appears Bristol has taken his place on the travel scene. Hope someone is watching records in Alaska and Nevada as to whether or not she divorces him. Things truly seem to be falling apart for her.
ReplyDeleteIf she decides to run on the national level, don't think she can mentally or physcially handle it. Look how she has changed physically in two years! If she thinks the press has been after her to date - think what they'll do to her on a campaign. She can only run and hide so long as to the press and questions. People know much more about her lies, non-ethics, parenting, non-pregnancy etc. than they did before.
She'd be much smarter staying a private citizen w/no 'titles'!
She looks like a truck stop hooker!
ReplyDeleteI think scrutinizing her appearance from time to time is valid, as we are talking about it as an indicator of her state of mind and relative well being. Those in psych professions look to appearance as diagnostic evidence all the time.
ReplyDeleteI am one of those who felt that going over her every plastic surgery or speculating about the woman's thighs was going too far. In as much as she has used her appearance as manipulation toward political ends, however, it's a perfectly legitimate discussion.
She looks rattled, worn and almost unkempt. Something's up.
Ok, 48 seconds, that's all I could stand...
ReplyDelete"...that will bring America to her knees" - hmm, interesting word choice if you ask me.
"...common sense, constitutionally based, time-tested truths..." - yes, Sarah, your concepts are unfortunately seared in all of our brains, even if we don't really know what the hell you are talking about!
She seems breathless. What's that all about? Skittish, nervous, ready to explode.
Anon at 8:57: I think you hit the nail on the head.
ReplyDeleteAnon 5:25 I get your point. It's the principal of dressing for the job you want and utilizing good judgment even for public and professional appearances. Honestly, if Obama or Hannity dressed in caricature if tight pants, an I'll fitting leather jacket alternating Little Richard and Jon Lennon wigs we'd comment too. I am with Va Voter, for the love of God, get a personal shopper! Call What Not To Wear!

I don't know about her "trying to get her man back"... but the shoes comment plus the rest of the wardrobe, and the choice of furniture... "I think I saw that same exact pair on a hooker in Vegas."...and then the comment before reports:
But he did say about 50 people paid at least $5,000 — and in some cases up to $50,000 — to shake her hand and make small talk with her on a receiving line.
So the 'look at me all hotted up' and the 'enticing views' provided are obviously 'good for business'.
I read somewhere that not all customers of prostitutes are paying for sex, some just pay for companionship, and do not engage in any sexual activities.
Re the comments on Sarah's appearance, I think Rene's breakdown of the fashion problems really nailed it. She needs some professional help on how to dress, do her hair, do her make-up and generally present herself. Yesterday's choices were truly bad. Will she listen? I'm afraid not.
ReplyDeletePeople used to criticize Hillary Clinton for her thick calves. Some people made fun of her headbands. We didn't like it, said it was sexually discriminating, petty, and brought nothing substantial to the debate. So why is there a different standard for Palin bashing? Debate the issues, not the physical appearance. That's what smart people do. Or, go ahead and wallow in your childish snarky comments. There's other websites that analyze Palin with intelligent, issue-oriented comments and that's where the mature adults will go.
ReplyDeletealbeit that $he's seriously lacking any substance between the ears but paylin's flat out scary lookin'
ReplyDeleteI wonder how many times will we see her outfit on all her daughters? Maybe it's willing outfit.
ReplyDeleteHer outfit isn't flattering on a looney old fakeass broad. She needs to grown up all the way around.
Her looks are fair game just as her kids because she uses all to HER advantage.
Hey mooseyak, if diapers are so expensive imagine how much it will cost to equip and educate trig? Oh I forgot you get help from the government.
ReplyDeleteBoy the stupid never ends with your evil, uneducated, dictator ass.
We all know you can't run bc you are just too fuckin stupid.
It is not sexist when she is the one who thought up or approved "the hottest governor from the coldest state" for the lobbyists. She has nothing else!!
ReplyDeleteSpeaking of unflattering pics ...

Ok,when I read about the shoes, I assumed they were medium-heeled pumps. Then a comment said peep-toed, so I thought that's a little inappropriate, but I still thought they were little pumps.
ReplyDeleteTHESE are Cosmo, Jersey Shore, whorey, tacky, wear to the disco shoes!!! OMG!
R in NC
Thanks for someone providing the link for the cheetah-print shoes she was wearing. That black outfit with big flag plastic bracelet and cheetah-print shoes. Nothing went together and she looked really a mess.
ReplyDeleteShe has no sense of style or fashion, she needs a major hair cut and it needs to be short.
The leopard shoes, you too can have a pair for less than 80 bucks! (I knew the moment I saw them that they were cheap shoes! Ha! Woman has millions o' dollars and these are the shoes she buys....)

ReplyDeleteHere's Bekkki, coming to kiss her queen. Your queen is a mess and we can't debate what she says cause she says nothing intelligent.
RAM, Rebecca Mansour, Bekki - the voice of Sarah, her twitler, her facebooker
Wow. Just to drive this point home. Sarah could no more be tied to an attack on Lady Obama+fam than Gryphen for an attack on Sarah+fam. ACtually, if Sarah or fam is attacked, Gryphen or one of you readers is probably a whole lot more liable and likely perp. Laying out criticism is not attacking, or harsh humor aka comedians wouldnt be accepted. I dont understand how you can be so insulted at repubs treatment of Obama when dems treated Bush SOOOO much worse. Maher anyone? Hypocrits
ReplyDeleteOh please with your typical repug bs.
You defend your failed leader chimpy the torturer, warmonger, economy fail, infrastructure fail, policy fail, international fail etc. Then being the ignorant ass that you are, you come back with the repub common sense, overused, undeserved analogy that since we rightfully condemned bush, you have have a right to show your racist, uneducated hatred self to President Obama the sec he took office. Oh please troll.
Next we have your simple analysis of if anything happens to your dumbass leader, we could be at fault. With all the hate, fear and lies your side dishes out daily you should be looking at the repug kooks that your side revved up daily. It looks like all the killings and maiming is coming from your side.
Regarding commenting on Mrs. Todd Palin's looks: well said Padoreva!
ReplyDeleteDoes anyone here think that John McCain would have given her a second glance had she looked like Golda Meir??
She has millions and could choose to look like a polished professional; but no - those leopard print high heels and short skirt is how she presents herself.
It does not matter if we point out how wildly inappropriate her appearance is. She will be hobbling around when she is ninety-eight in dirty, teased wigs and hooker boots.
So much for her wardrobe; as to her physical appearance I am starting to believe that she relies on drugs or alcohol to get her through the days.
She says she can't get toad to registered repub. Oh I wonder why? Could it be he's a SECESSIONIST?
ReplyDeleteShe damn well knows this.
And still these fools gather and give their money to an obvious grifter.
When Bill Clinton was first elected president, Rush Limbaugh went on a HUGE anti-Hilary campaign, based on extremely sexist "facts." I remember, for example, that he had supposedly discovered that she had her underwear sewn into her skirts so she wouldn't have a visible panty line. That little piece of alleged vanity occupied him for DAYS.
ReplyDeleteSo it's ironic as all hell that he lauds Palin, whose documented and evident vanities and attempts to ratchet up the sex appeal are far more transparent. If we oppose the double standard, let's start calling Limbaugh, et al, on theirs.

ReplyDelete"People used to criticize Hillary Clinton for her thick calves. Some people made fun of her headbands. .... So why is there a different standard for Palin bashing?"
Because Hillary did not do this:
http://www.thehollywoodgossip.com/2009/07/sarah-palin-runners-world-photos/
She is quickly wasting away.. Living in Arizonie will do that to ya... In the Swag-hag's case, it's more of a melting phenomenon than anything else... The badly streaked hair does NOT help...
ReplyDeleteHey Gryphen, the paragraph about "moose nuggets" IS good.. Can I re-use it elsewhere??
Winski
Troll(s) get off the stump about us not commenting on Hillary or Michelle's looks. We don't because they don't run it down our throat about their beauty and they don't use their beauty for political gain.
ReplyDeleteWhy does she often look dirty and unwashed? Really, look at the stuff on her head.
ReplyDeleteJust watched a National Geo program about the madness of Henry VIII. Seems that, after a lifetime of greed, treachery and vengeance, he died a monster - grossly obese with stinking ulcerated sores on his legs.
ReplyDeleteAny resemblance to Queen Twitter? How will you end, Snooki? What is the payoff for a lifetime of vindictiveness and greed?
Oh, and Henry VIII also liked to chop the heads off people who displeased him. His version of throwing them under the bus.
ReplyDeleteShe did look seriously awful, and her gestures and body language are all over the place. Very uncomfortable to watch her perform like a circus seal. And still she gets another full round of publicity without real challenge. If I see one more pussy "journalism" go mushy on her I'll f'ing pull my hair out. I'd even take Billo at this point...he's the only I've seen give her grief. Melly
ReplyDeletehey you bots can complain about people describing Palin's ugliness and inappropriate dress - but really, there is nothing else to talk about. This is a human with no substance, except lots of substance abuse.
ReplyDelete"Hope someone is watching records in Alaska and Nevada as to whether or not she divorces him."
ReplyDeletedid they ever get married? Considering she didn't believe her opponent in the mayors race, and accused him of falsifying a marriage certificate, I'm very suspicious of hers, and if she has one.
"They keep bringing out photos of Willow and Bristol and trying to pretend that everything is normal."
ReplyDeleteyeah they do - they try to pass old and/or doctored photos of slim and trim non-pregnant girls as current. Failin'.
9:54 AM said "It's the principal of dressing for the job you want"
ReplyDeleteprostitute. She's getting kinda' wrinkly for that job. With all the work she had done to her face recently, she should have worked on the bunch under her chin. Her trout lips look overdone.

ReplyDeleteThe lighting of the last picture is deceiving. Anyone could look worse when an original pic is distorted - be it either through contrast, lighting, or colour saturation.
There are better (and far more honest) ways to get your point across Gryph, without resorting to these tactics. It is petty and takes away from your credibility. Colour me disappointed.
CC @ 4:18 am "But wait, there's more ... she slipped in her "having to buy cases of diapers" to remind them she is YOUNG, DAMNIT!!
ReplyDeleteWell now, that depends. Maybe Palin meant that she was purchasing ADULT diapers (for herself).
Truthseeker ...
ReplyDeleteCould be, but given the various "Basic Instinct" crotch-showing attempts, I seriously hope she did not wear them for the event ... might not help with her base, if you get my drift. ;-)

I don't understand how that could be done,
and I'm a woman. You can have a skirt that
is lined, but with built in underpants??? Huh?
I usually go commando, or wear a thong,
because VPL is awful, but pantyhose or tights
do the job with skirts, so why would any one
sew their underwear to their skirts? Has
Rush ever actually had sex with a woman?
Has he ever been around a naked woman?
Has he even known a woman long enough
to know how women get dressed? Methinks
despite his many marriages, Rush is a 400
pound virgin.
CC @ 2:02 pm Good Point. Can Sarah now add "Flasher" to her resume of skills?
ReplyDeletePerhaps Palin will need to start wearing those diapers with all the s**t starting to hit the fan:
- Bailey's pending book
- Tawd's philandering ways
- persistent repudiation of Palin's version of the Wild Ride & Trig's birth.
The list goes on and on. You name it, Palin has lots of reasons to start wearing adult diapers.
All those hours spent getting tanned are starting to show: it makes you look older and more wrinkly as well as more tanned. She's stressing out. Interesting touch - those leopard spot shoes - tacky. Her neck - you see ropey, stringy, corrugated necks like that on tv all the time: among actresses who don't eat. It's distracting.
ReplyDeleteAnd then she sits there spewing poison and trying to instigate harm to others who never harmed her.
Shameful, creature.

I've worked with a sociopath who is my office manager since 2003. Were it not for the fact that she was born to Japanese-American parents, she could be $carah Palin's twin. Seriously. The similarities are so striking -- indeed, when I first heard $carah speak in 2008, she reminded immediately of said office manager. You can be sure that there is PLENTY of $carah's life which she has stage-managed and successfully kept secret UP TO THIS POINT. I'm pleased that the dam seems to be breaking, the facade seems to be cracking, and soon the truth about $carah Palin will be known by the world, instead of just those few of us who bother to due our "due diligence" and research this monster.
ReplyDeleteYeah, Gryphen, she looks awful. I understand why Obama ages before our eyes from the stress of actually leading this mostly ungrateful nation. But who can esplain why the screetchy wretch is hurtling down the bumpy road to Seniorland? She has no responsibilities and even her supporters have low expectations of her. I have maintained from the beginning that if she looked like Angela Merkel (no offense, Angie!) she'd still be Assistant to the Assistant Deputy Street Sweeper's Assistant in Unincorporated Wasilla, Alaska...
ReplyDeleteYou know. That might be a really funny SNL skit.
ReplyDeleteAn old decrepit Sarah Palin hag running for president in, like 2048. Sort of a Ron Paul teabagger version. Or Ralph Nader. Make it like she's a running joke; the perpetual teabagger candidate they drag out every election cycle.
They could get a really, really old, wrinkled actress with a great screetch and dress her up in a mini skirt and hooker/drag queen shoes and have her mumble some word salad.
It might be really funny.
"did they ever get married? Considering she didn't believe her opponent in the mayors race, and accused him of falsifying a marriage certificate, I'm very suspicious of hers, and if she has one."
ReplyDeleteAnon@12:45, I'm with ya', here.
Alaska seems very "lax" about documentation. It would take nothing for Sarah Heath to come back from a weekend with a guy (while pregnant with someone else's baby) and announce to all and sundry that she's "Mrs. Todd Palin".
Very convenient. I can see Sarah doing this all on her own, and Todd just getting dragged along, kinda like how Sarah released the faked "medical records" letter supposedly from CBJ.
After all, if Todd's not really married, she's not his responsibility, and he can go off to the slope, fuck who he likes, and do Iron Dog stuff. "Marriage" to Sarah does not seem to ever have cramped Todd's style.
Following this thought further, it would explain a lot of oddball things about the Palin "marriage":
ReplyDelete-Sarah's on-again, off-again wedding ring(s).
-Her weird reax to divorce rumors ("Have you seen Todd?"). Didn't say anything about how good her marriage was…
-Not sure where it was just Stapletongue or Sarah herself who called the divorce rumors lies and fabrications, but think about it: of course it's a "lie" to say that someone is getting a divorce if they were never married in the first place.
I wonder if Alaska has a common-law marriage stature? Otherwise, actually not being married could have repercussions, I'm thinking tax-wise primarily.
