| "Flippin' Iowa! How am I supposed to keep shearing the sheep with you pulling crap like this?" |
The official ballot for the Iowa straw poll will list nine names, including three declared candidates who have decided to not compete in the Aug. 13 event: Mitt Romney, Jon Huntsman and Newt Gingrich.
But the door is wide open for Iowans to vote for anyone they like: For the first time, write-ins will be counted.
After a long debate, the Republican Party of Iowa’s state central committee decided today not to include two well-known candidates who are merely flirting with a bid: Rick Perry and Sarah Palin.
Oh, you just KNOW this is really going to piss all over the Sea O'Pee's little Palin presidential parade don't you?
And it is really such a shame considering just how hard Snowdrift Snooki was flirting.
Kind of nice to see that they don't exactly take Rick Perry very seriously either, don't you agree?
She's a vile, hateful person, nasty as spit.
ReplyDeleteThe Iowans who have true values would reject her out of hand anyway.
Great! She hasn't been on many polls lately. Someone has been defeated.
ReplyDeleteOff topic the frontiersman had to apologize for running an article about spousal rape not being rape written by some nut bag preacher. Of course they just had to publish it didn't they. I said that newspaper was only toilet paper. Proof, they suck at the frontiersman.
I read it on adn.
So they can write her in. Sorry, this ain't "Dancing with the Stars". One vote per moron.
ReplyDeleteAre those the same Iowans who put Steve King in office? That does not inspire confidence....
ReplyDeleteThe conservatives4palin blog has a survey with which anyone can participate. It is a great opportunity to drive them crazier than they already are.
ReplyDeleteBill
Nice to know there's a bar they won't lower just for her.
ReplyDeleteOuch!!
Don't you just love how she is pushing those fake boobalas toward the camera? I'm surprised that her tongue isn't flicking and that she isn't also stroking her thigh.
ReplyDeleteGryphen, you should see the picture of Kate Middleton Windsor in the newest People magazine. Look at the picture of her with a small, elegant cross on her neck. You should do an article comparing her tasteful cross with one of Tundra Turd's garish religious symbols. Personally I think the belt buckle crotch cross would be best.
ReplyDeleteTrying to think of something snarky to say.
ReplyDeleteCan't— cause Sarah is so boring at this point. All the joy of making fun of her has burnt out of me. I so blame her for it.
Sarah can't run an ordinary political campaign. No staff, no donations, no intelligence, no discipline. Do you think she wants to run as as a third party candidate; rules just don't apply to this maverick.
ReplyDeleteJust seeing Perry and Palin in the same sentence sends shivers down my spine. You don't suppose these two would pair up for a run at POTUS? I think Sarah would love to campaign as VP again....look how easy it was and how much attention! Perry would love to have her rough up the crowd before his speeches. They could sell themselves as the Rogue Party. It makes sense in a crazy cynical way.
ReplyDeleteBut she's so buttiful, so brainless, so grifty, so so dumb and then there's her dumber daughter. Could we call them Dumb & Dumber, also too?
ReplyDelete2:55 I agree, Kate Middleton Windsor is classy - Sarah is not!
ReplyDeleteSarah is nowhere near the Windsor category.
Nothing screams "sexy" like a woman in Carhart pants, does it? Wasn't RAM available to do the laundry so she would have more appropriate clothing to wear? Oh, oh I see - she is supposedly getting ready to go fishin' or huntin' or cayakin' anything but stay home and nurture her kids (and grandkids)
ReplyDelete3:27 pm Angela said
ReplyDeleteBut please try, you always deliver the best punches and I think you're very witty.
Palin & Perry. Half Twit and Half Wit. The "UNSEATED." Secessionists united! Cue Todd . . .
ReplyDeleteAnd their worst nightmare, our awesome President, gave a masterful speech yesterday! Again, the adult in the room.
Have you noticed Sarah has kept her trap shut?
ReplyDeleteMy guess is that an advisor or somebody told her to keep quiet because every time she open her mouth she looks and sounds like a damn fool.
I cannot bring myself to - indeed, will not under any circumstances - wade into the fetid and festering urine pond, so I'll rely upon others to report on what the batshit crazy piss bathers are saying.
ReplyDeleteWhatever it is, I'm sure it will be imbecilic and out of touch with reality.
But at least all of the posts will be urine scented.
A little off topic but -
ReplyDeleteG,
Hope you are having a great summer. You deserve it!
Love it.
ReplyDeleteThis is going to get her going, of course. She will really pull out all the mavericky stops!
Again, just let her try. I can't wait.
Remember the bus tour debacle? How recently was she being an idiot? She screws up every single thing she puts her hand to, we can count on it.
She is the Ralph Nader of the GOP (don't attack, I love Ralph but then again he may have cost us '00)!!!!!
What goes around comes around, karma is a bitch.
why is she looking so man-like--I mean her face?
ReplyDeleteI still think she looks ill in all of the images from that photo shoot.
ReplyDeleteWell, she just needs to take that ole bus out of mothballs and drive it on down to see those rill Americans and tell 'em that She, Sarah, will stand up to those boys in Washington and fight for the American people. Yessiree. Then they'll see that she don't need any straw poll. She's got the rill Americans on her side. You betcha!
ReplyDeleteIsn't it time for Sarah to get that bus back on the road? She can pull into Iowa just in time for the straw poll to hand out ballots with her name pre-printed as a write-in candidate. What was the point in playing her hagiography there if she isn't in the game? How much of a coward is she?
ReplyDeleteSo Gryphen, what exactly is going on in Palinland now? She and the klan seem to have gone deep underground with news of her daughter-in-law's pregnancy. Also with coverage of Michele Bachmann dominating the news 24/7.
ReplyDeleteC for P has a crazy nutjob post there on why she will be president. A must read. I'd lover to hear Gryphens thoughts and all of yours too. Those people were hatched.

Sarah listen to anyone?? Well there is that voice in her head that has always led her down the wrong path.
Hi Sarah, Welcome back!
ReplyDeleteQuick question, Where's Trig's birth certificate?
Couldn't happen to a more vindictive, vexed, vile, vomitously vapid and venomous vixen varmint! And Perry pretty hair too!
ReplyDeleteMarcus and Migraine must be doing their world famous "flaming happy dance".
Just finished Dunn's book- epilogue particularly scathing. Honestly, with the "ammo" that her opponents have on her, should she choose to run- holy cow. The evisceration would send her over the edge she already seems to be teetering on.
ReplyDeleteI sense that she will end up placing in the poll due to the write-in ability and then somehow parallel it with Murkowski's write-in in some bizarre way.
ReplyDeletePalin will view the write-ins even more favorably than if they just checked a box. "See how much they love me?! I'm not even on the ballot and I'm still posting good numbers!" She'll run.
Gryphen, are you giving any credence to the rumor that TeamLulu is bypassing the electoral path to national leadership and moving directly to divine coronation? I'm skeptical but I suppose if anyone can wheedle a nation from Thor, (eye roll) I gotta say the screechy wretch is my first pick to pull it off. Besides that pesky Constitution, is there really any particular reason we couldnt just unanimously declare her Queen?
ReplyDeleteWinning!
ReplyDeleteI just want to push her in! =)
ReplyDelete(the water, not the race...)
Sarah made herself inconsequential by not staying in office or at least running for another office.
ReplyDeleteNobody is going to ask her to be the candidate for the Republicans unless the Kochs make the party take her.
She is not wealthy enough to have any major impact on a national level on her own strengths.
Being a feral conservative opinionator...oops, rogue " ", gives lots of freedom to express one's self but also makes one smell at least a little gamey and to collect fleas, and ticks, so to speak.
She claims to speak for the Tea Party but the Tea Party isn't actually a Party or an organization or anything else.
Sarah is a very unpleasant very unChrist like person who becomes less liked as people see and read more about her. She is also one dimensional which makes for boring TV and movies.
With her partial move to Arizona and not holding any high office in Alaska any more, more and more Alaskans are willing to speak out about what she is truly like, and what she and her family are truly, which is, ugly and vicious.
Just ask Trooper Wooten, he has the sister-in-law from hell. Or ask Levi Johnston, he has the almost mother-in-law from hell. Or the Palin's next door neighbor, or McGinnis who rented next door who ended up with the next door neighbor from hell.
Or ask her neighbor in Juneau who also ended up with the neighbor from hell. Or the police chief from Wasilla who ended up being fired by the Mayor from hell. Or the head of the Alaskan DPS who also was fired by the Governor from hell. Or the Republican dominated Alaskan legislature in 2009 who ended up with the Gov/Republican leader from hell, who they denounced as a liar in a press conference.
And on and on the list goes.
She is ugly, vicious, and now inconsequential.
And she has learned nothing that would make her a better leader or organizer since the summer of 2008. In fact quite the opposite, she is a divider not a joiner, a dictator not a uniter, even within her own party.
Assuming she actually has a party any more.
"The conservatives4palin blog has a survey with which anyone can participate. It is a great opportunity to drive them crazier than they already are.
ReplyDeleteBill 2:33 PM"
Took the survey Bill! Interesting that they are in full-out BEGGING mode to induce and almost order the bots to see the movie, post favorable comments everywhere, and enlist everyone they know to prop up her invisible campaign. So their vain-glorious 'chosen one' doesn't have legions already on board, lining up and falling over each other with their support???? They are doing magical math with the movie attendance numbers and still can't come up with much more than blaming the distribution deal and Mr Potter et al.
I can't identify the smell of Teen Spirt or napalm in the morning but I can detect the odor of desperation thru my monitor.
I'm bored today so made several visits to C4P after Bill mentioned their survey. I completed the survey, which is short and includes a couple of humorous questions, e.g.., what would you do to help Sarah get elected President?
ReplyDeleteThe "Why Palin Will be President" article is an exercise in fantasy. Just skim the paragraph topics if you can't stomach all of it. They include "Kitchen Table Economics" and "Ethics Reform." You all get the picture.
Bots then gush about Palin's "humility" and how she is "grounded in Christianity." Wow. Have these people read the Beatitudes?
Any efforts to force a little reality testing, like pointing out her spendthrift habits from the time she was mayor of Wasilla onward, are quickly flagged. But it's fun to needle them, even if you know they're blind to reason.
It's going to be really awful when Sarah goes away. Where else can we have this much fun? I know the GOP has a whole slew of replacement nutjobs, but there is "something special" about Sarah. Dontcha think?
ReplyDeleteI kind of wish Perry would run, just to put a crimp in Sarah's game plan: to declare in September, run via Twitter and FB, win by acclamation and write-in votes--in an evil, parallel universe, of course. Actually, I just want her to be humiliated with the totality of her failure, so bring it on, Sarah! YOU WILL LOSE!
ReplyDeleteBill, I took the survey, thanks. I don't think they'll like my answers.
ReplyDeleteSarah is silent now days because too many things that are REALLY important ate happening- The debt ceiling, Murdoch, and the Oslo terrorist. She has no real solutions to anything, only talking points. The spotlight won't be on her, so she stays hidden until she can take a pot sot over some stupid perceived slight.
ReplyDeleteJoe has words for Sarah:
ReplyDelete“OSLO, Norway — The Norwegian man charged Saturday with a pair of attacks in Oslo that killed at least 92 people left behind a detailed manifesto outlining his preparations and calling for a Christian civil war to defend Europe against the threat of Muslim domination, according to Norwegian and American officials familiar with the investigation.
“As stunned Norwegians grappled with the deadliest attack in the country since World War II, a portrait began to emerge of the suspect, Anders Behring Breivik, 32. The police identified him as a right-wing fundamentalist Christian, while acquaintances described him as a gun-loving Norwegian obsessed with what he saw as the threats of multiculturalism and Muslim immigration.”
Calling Sarah Palin and Franklin Graham: can either or both of you demonstrate that this man’s beliefs differ from your own?
Will either or both of you do so?
Sarah, are you awake? Are you human? Can you feel?
Or do you think that, like Tucson, this has nothing to do with your rhetoric?
Can’t you see how much you’ve done to create a climate of intolerance and hate?
Well, maybe you can. Maybe you have. You’ve had nothing to say since the Norwegian catastrophe, but maybe you’ve at least Twittered about it, or had your Facebook ghostwriter draft a comment in your name?
Oops, guess not.
Here’s her most recent:
Lame Duck President http://fb.me/14PbOXzxC
How about the rest of you “Christians?” Anything to say?
How come it’s racist, xenophobic, right wing “Christians” who go around murdering innocents in the name of their God?
When’s the last time a Buddhist slaughtered innocent people?
When’s the last time a Jew did?
Agnostics don’t leave a trail of blood behind them.
How come it’s organized religion–whether Christianity or Islam–that inspires hatred and violence?

They'll go after her like a mob if she doesn't run at this point. I think she'll jump in last minute, then "someone" will threaten her family (an Obama thug, of course) or a horrible "rumor" will arise, and she'll be able to bow out gracefully. Protecting her family from all those nasty things we will be throwing at her. You know, facts and stuff.
ReplyDeleteI hope people who lurves them some rightwing xtian candidates pay attention to the horror in Norway. " The Norwegian man charged Saturday with a pair of attacks in Oslo that killed at least 92 people left behind a detailed manifesto outlining his preparations and calling for a Christian war to defend Europe against the threat of Muslim domination, according to Norwegian and American officials familiar with the investigation."
ReplyDelete"In the 1,500-page manifesto, posted on the Web hours before the attacks, Mr. Breivik recorded a day-by-day diary of months of planning for the attacks, and claimed to be part of a small group that intended to “seize political and military control of Western European countries and implement a cultural conservative political agenda.”
"The manifesto, entitled “2083: A European Declaration of Independence,” equates liberalism and multiculturalism with “cultural Marxism,” which the document says is destroying European Christian civilization." http://www.nytimes.com/2011/07/24/world/europe/24oslo.html?_r=1&pagewanted=all
One cannot help but wonder who's occupying the Arizona Asylum that Palin possessed a couple months back . . . well, besides the scorpions and things that slither.
ReplyDeleteHah! Refreshing sign of the times: Huffington Post's headline reads
ReplyDelete"Rick Perry Left Off Ames Straw Poll Ballot"
with no mention of Sarah Palin - she doesn't even rate a mention alongside the OTHER unannounced candidate left off the Iowa ballot.
Reminds me of what they used to say about the Beatles song "JHey Jude" - a 3 minute song with a 4 minute fade.
Sarah's 15 minutes of fame was followed by a loooooong slow fade, and we're witnessing its glory daily!
Gawd, looking at that photoshopped pic of her makes me think who would want that skank as president?
ReplyDeleteGoL
Lynne, you are right. She's unique. I can't recall anyone else who has so little to offer, and has at the same time received so much attention. Her unwitting gaucheness, ignorance, tackiness, etc., make her the joke that writes itself. Sad for her family and anyone else who depends on her, but fun for the rest of us.
ReplyDeleteSarah, you looks like a middle aged lady trying to look sexy..dang you should have left 1 more button undone, and added a little more water to the bra, you really screwed up on that one!
ReplyDeleteLooks like someone from the undefeated was an Earnhardt fan. She is definitely no intimidator though.
ReplyDeletehttp://www.stylefeeder.com/i/f1hjz11s/Sam-Bass-Dale-Earnhardt-Quot-The-Magnificent-Seven-Quot-Poster
HOW many doors need to slam before she "gets" that she is SOOO yesterday?
ReplyDeleteRuh roh! Geez, Sarah, you'd think your Pella appearance would have been good enough for those corn-fed rubes. Well, better gas up the constitution bus and take it out for a quick drive through Iowa. Get your picture taken next to a covered bridge wearing your water bra and short shorts. That ought to set things right for your rogue campaign.
ReplyDeleteImagine this:
ReplyDeleteScarah and Roger Ailes AGREE that Scarah will PLAY out the CHARADE of possibly running for POTUS for as long as humanly possible. It is mutually beneficial: the longer Scarah dances with the possibility, she still has SOME draw for FOX-heads, and she can pull in some viewers when she shows up.
With this assistance from Ailes, Palin will be able to keep her reputation from being irreparably damaged in the eyes of her fans (and many FOX-heads). I'm sure Palin thought this was a pretty good set-up as well: she gets to retain her "cred", while securing herself another yearly FOX contract, perhaps upward of $2 million now.
HOWEVER...
this "deal" would have been made long before these Murdoch "shenanigans" made it to light. I would bet Palin didn't know this was coming. FOX, and her future gig there, is now in SERIOUS jeopardy, is it not?
If FOX was her consolation prize to POTUS, do you think her plans will change now that FOX may no longer be an option??
Poor poor Ms Bendy Straws...
ReplyDeleteSarah Vs. Sarah,
ReplyDeleteI'm with you. I think that Murdoch's woes could DEFINITELY put a big kink in Palin's plans.
What if it becomes incontrovertibly clear that FauxNews was involved in criminal activity? Would Palin have enough sense to bail while she could and try and distance herself from Ailes and Murdoch? Is she dumb enough - HA! - to hang onto that turd Ailes as he and the rest of the FauxNews load of shit goes down the toilet?
Palin's ability to think strategically is going to be taxed profoundly in the coming weeks and months. Will she throw Ailes under the bus? Will Ailes throw Palin under the bus?
Ooooh, I hope I have enough popcorn!
People are not going to appreciate $arah's attempts to take a shortcut to the nomination IF she even decides to run. The people in Iowa expect to see the candidates up close and personal, not just on a movie screen with limited viewing and reading about their views on FB, although she never expands on any policy issues.
ReplyDeleteLoved filling out the poll, but would they ever include anyone whose comments and results didn't line up with what they want? Hell, no! There were no options other than $arah P.!
Delusional poster believes that Obama's fundraising is peanuts as they think Palin will raise $100 million the first week she announces. What was her take for the first six months of her PAC? She didn't file her reports for the first quarter because of the pitiful fundraising.
Whatta ticket. Rick Perry and Sarah Palin(TM) -- a Ken and Barbie political event! Every one cleans up real nice. She is running for VP of whoever.
ReplyDeleteGasman: "What if it becomes incontrovertibly clear that FauxNews was involved in criminal activity? Would Palin have enough sense to bail while she could and try and distance herself from Ailes and Murdoch?"
ReplyDeleteHere's a depressing thought: given how much the media slobbers over her, you just know CNN would be waiting in the wings to hire her as THEIR "analyst."
When’s the last time a Buddhist slaughtered innocent people?
ReplyDeleteWhen’s the last time a Jew did?
Did Joe McGuiness really write this?? Aren't Palestinian kids killed often in Gaza??
The bots are saying it doesn't matter, it's too early. And, I agree. It is more than a year away from the general election. She could easily make a huge splash should she decide to announce. Whoever is directing her actions definitely realizes the value of building up the will she or won't she suspense? The risk is that support for other candidates will be entrenched by the time she does announce, assuming she's going to. But, the wait could also work to her advantage if the GOP candidates continue to make complete fools of themselves. This could actually help position her as the "reasonable" choice once she decides to enter. Don't underestimate the media's willingness to play along with such an absurd notion, either. They've been propping her up for a reason, I suspect.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Anonymous, for the heads-up on the Conservatives4Palin site. I took their survey. They asked what I would be willing to do to help her presidential campaign. I told them: "Organize my prayer chipmunks to see her get the nomination so we have another wonderful four years of President Obama."
ReplyDeleteLast night, I watched the real "Undefeated" on TV with John Wayne. Good movie. I looked for any signs of Sarah Palin and I thought I saw her once, but it was just a horse's ass.
ReplyDeleteI live in Iowa and on Thursday I received a poll-taking phone call and low and behold, SP wasn't even an option! I was waiting for that but it never came. Things are looking up.
ReplyDeleteHer photo shoot is soooo dignified and presidential. Her "girls" grew so fast and you can tell li'l ol' sarah is so very proud of them.

Great question, but the answer is NO. It is actually MORE work, more intelligent staff to get that 3rd party onto ballots in enough states to make a difference.
What scares me is a Perry Palin Tea Party ticket. They'd have a rabble-rousing good ol' time, you betcha!
ReplyDeleteIf Sarah gets more than one write-in vote, I will call for voter fraud investigation. Wouldn't put it past her fans to figure out a way to stuff the ballot box like they did for Bristlepants non dancing.
