I am not sure why Bristol has purple hair, or why her mother introduces her with her full name, but is that Willow standing against the wall too?
I swear that there is more evidence coming out all of the time to support he idea that Palin is some kind of Democratic double agent. Unless she really is just this stupid.
Update: Thanks to our very good friend GinaM, we have a picture of The Grizzled One damaging the minds of young conservative women at the Clare Boothe Luce Policy Institute gathering.
As well as a picture of Bristol trying to get ANYBODY to take that damn book her mother talked her into having written to get back at Levi off of off her hands.
Wow I could hardly make her out through the crowd.
Update 2: Here is a write up of that conversation with Palin in the hallway from the video.
“People who start screaming that a brokered convention is the worst thing that could happen to the G.O.P., they have an agenda,” Ms. Palin said in an interview. “They have their own personal or political reasons, their own candidate who they would like to see protected away from a brokered convention.”
It is not often that I wholeheartedly support a plan endorsed by Sarah Palin, but this one has Gryphen's seal of approval.
And too late to change your mind lady! We have that shit on video!
Ms. Palin, who frequently offers her take on the race as a commentator on the Fox News Channel, did not rule out making her preference known as the campaign moved forward.
“My contract does not prohibit me from endorsing, thank goodness,” Ms. Palin said. “So I’m just like 60 percent, 70 percent of Americans still trying to decipher who’s best.”
Yes it must be SO difficult to make a choice between the four whole candidates now isn't it? One must wonder how she ever manages to choose an outfit to put on in the morning.
"So what shall it be? A flag pin to show my patriotism? The Star of David to show I like the Jews, at least until the Rapture? Or a giant gaudy cross to show I am a Christian, despite everything about my lifestyle?"
Leave Sarah alone. She's an American icon. What have you sacrificed for your country? Sarah sacrificed her daughter's CHIN!
ReplyDeleteYeah, I thought so.
The latter.
ReplyDeleteI think they set Sarah up. Romney crushed in the straw poll. Newt barely registered a blip.
ReplyDeleteShe's coming, she's coming, she's coming...
LOL.
When are your sources, Fred, et al going to finish off this lunatic? How much damage needs to be done to this already fucked up country? Are you waiting for Jeb Bush?
ReplyDeleteWe got a so-called 49-state mortgage settlement that doesn't even have anything in writing, proving our AGs don't really give a shit about property laws or the stupid electorate that they are supposed to serve. All that is left is for another Shrub III when we have a convention in Fucking Florida....SCJ picking a winner anyone?
here ya go on the AGs don't get their deal in writing so Obama can announce he has a super pac (Hint: Banks please donate now).
ReplyDeleteWhat a pathetic family.
ReplyDeleteSarah is wearing a crimson red silk-type blouse for CPAC speech. Her hair has been professionally done. Somebody must have grabbed the Wasilla hillbilly when she hit town and had her gussied up.
ReplyDeleteShe rides that teleprompter like it's a Wolverine small forward.
ReplyDelete$arah and Beefalo: It's a good day for abusin' SarahPAC donations. We're smilin'!
ReplyDeleteBristol's purpely-hued hair is, I'm convinced, due to the lighting (and maybe the camera's funky color balance (or lack thereof).
ReplyDeleteAs for what SP had to say - well, speaks for itself. Nothing of interest, nothing new. Still failing to endorse anyone lest she be 'wrong' ('cause she really hates that) and she sounds about as excited to be there as I would be excited about getting a root canal.
She'd better step up the enthusiasm factor before her speech tonight.
marvinM
Of course she wants a brokered convention. Not because they'll actually draft her as a compromise but because she sees the opportunity to loosen the tightened purse strings of her insane followers. Why else would she be doing this? As for Brisket's hair and the absent crowd at her free book signing - what else is new. She is even staler than Sara
ReplyDeleteSarah may have taken both Bristol and Willow with her but she left the Belmont Girls at home.
ReplyDeleteI was listening to her at CPAC. I think OCCUPY was there, but the crowd starting shouting "USA" and Sarah joined in. There was a shot of people being escorted out...then Sarah said, "You won. See how easy that was!" She also has a cute new rhyme "We're red white and blue, and Obama, we're done with you!" She looked so pleased with herself when she got that right. Otherwise, she's just throwing out red meat for the lowlives, who are gobbling it up.
ReplyDeleteOne liners falling flat. Same old Obama bashing. Screechy chant of USA.
ReplyDeleteSarah doesn't make liberal heads explode anymore. She puts them to sleep.
Sarah Palin said Saturday that Republicans should be in no hurry to wrap up the presidential nominating contest, declaring that a competitive campaign until the August convention in Tampa would not complicate the party’s efforts to defeat President Obama.
ReplyDelete“People who start screaming that a brokered convention is the worst thing that could happen to the G.O.P., they have an agenda,” Ms. Palin said in an interview. “They have their own personal or political reasons, their own candidate who they would like to see protected away from a brokered convention.”
She added: “That’s part of competition, part of the process and it may happen.”
Ms. Palin, who arrived here to deliver a speech to the Conservative Political Action Conference, said that she was enjoying watching the newly-competitive Republican presidential primary. She said the campaign has made Mitt Romney and his rivals stronger candidates.
In a brief interview with The New York Times and CNN, Ms. Palin said that she had not decided which candidate to support. She has repeatedly praised the candidacy of Newt Gingrich, saying a month ago that she would vote for him if she lived in South Carolina, but she did not repeat those accolades on Saturday.
When asked if Mr. Gingrich should step aside to allow conservative to coalesce behind Rick Santorum, Ms. Palin said, “Not yet.” She said that there was “room for more debate, for more discussion, adding: “I wouldn’t encourage anyone to drop out.”
Ms. Palin, who last year decided against joining the Republican presidential race, offered no regrets about her decision. She was upbeat as she discussed the party’s nominating contest.
A day after Mr. Romney stood before thousands of conservative activists at the conference and called himself a “severely conservative governor,” Ms. Palin conceded that she was puzzled by his description.
“I wasn’t quite sure what the word ‘severely’ meant,” she said with a smile. “It sounded severe.”
Mr. Romney, a former governor of Massachusetts, has struggled to win over conservative activists in his bid to win the party’s presidential nomination. Ms. Palin said that he “still has a lot of time” to explain his record and his evolution on positions like abortion and other issues. She urged him to spend more time reaching out to Tea Party activists.
“If the Tea Party patriots are dismissed, if they’re marginalized, they’re going to be much less enthused and much less willing to put it all on the line for the G.O.P. candidate in the general election,” Ms. Palin said. “We can’t afford to have low voter turnout in the general election.”
But in the interview, she did not criticize Mr. Romney.
“The best thing that he has going for him – he still has time to make the case,” Ms. Palin said. “Don’t let the political experts in the party say that we need to sew this thing up now.”
Ms. Palin, who frequently offers her take on the race as a commentator on the Fox News Channel, did not rule out making her preference known as the campaign moved forward.
“My contract does not prohibit me from endorsing, thank goodness,” Ms. Palin said. “So I’m just like 60 percent, 70 percent of Americans still trying to decipher who’s best.”

$arah used "Bristol Palin" in a tweet about her yesterday, too. Sounded odd then, and it sounds even stranger when she SAYS it. Wonder what that's all about. I hope someone here has a good guess or (even better) inside info.
ReplyDeleteRomney crushed in straw poll??? Romney won cpac straw poll
ReplyDeleteOops, I put that note in the wrong thread. Sorry.
ReplyDeleteEgads, she still hasn't learned how to dress appropriately.
ReplyDeletethe blurred pic makes jr skank grifter beefalo's restructured jaw look like a marionette's
ReplyDeleteShe's an IDIOT, she is obsessed with President Obama. Her Screeching Drivel at CPAC was bashing Obama and "WE want our GUNS and RELIGIOUS FREEDOM" IDIOCY. SNOWDRIFT SNOOKIE is lost in space.
ReplyDeleteReally, Gryph? A shout-out to GinaM, the commenter who most blatantly disregards your New Years call to civility (apart from the Palin trolls, that is)? I have watched in distress for several months as she has bullied long-time commenters and supporters of this blog, including me, using the same tactics we (rightfully) criticize in Palin and RAM. She is as nasty and divisive as Sarah--much more divisive than the obvious trolls here, because no one takes them seriously (and we all know most of "them" are just one person).
ReplyDeleteWith this encouragement from you, I can only see her getting worse.
I have decided, with regrets, to stop visiting IM. For 18 months, I have been coming here for catharsis, news on the icebergs that cannot sink SS Palin soon enough, and sophisticated snark--
not to revisit junior high, which was bad enough the first time around.
I am not a Palin or a PAC-paid flunky. I have, in fact, contributed guest posts to one of the blogs on the "Sarah Palin's least favorite" blogroll. (I'm staying anonymous because I don't need blog drama spilling over into my real life.)
I'm f***ing tired of juvenile accusations that I'm "Baldy" anytime I voice an opinion that dissents from GinaM and her sycophants. And I am not picking on GinaM because she always signs her name, but because the tone of her comments is so consistently disrespectful to anyone who disagrees with her or anyone who has the audacity to ask her to be more civil in her tone.
The dynamic that has taken over IM comments reminds me of the Wendy the Waitress situation, when bullies prevailed to drive off a valuable source of Palin information and insight. The same thing is happening again. GinaM and her ilk couldn't serve Sarah better if they were on the PAC payroll.
I guess Sarah see's a brokered nomination as her way of getting nominated without having to show just her ignorance through the debates. I would love to see her nominated, however, it would be a total win for Obama. She would still have to do a couple of debates which would destroy her even more and give us all a great night of cheap entertainment. Stock up on the popcorn early by finding it on sale. Since I live in Tampa and they're asking for volunteers, maybe I should volunteer on the chance of witnessing the downfall of the Republican party.
ReplyDeletePalin is so jealous of President Obama. All her little jabs and insults just made her sound like the bitter woman she is. She may have had her hair professionally done, but she still looks like crap and her screech is worse than ever as she speaks.
ReplyDeleteOh, the drama! Watch Sarah tiptoe on her thin line of evil lest she stumble off it into some grace.
ReplyDelete1:08 Agree, the nastiness is getting a little old. Gryphen allows it because it brings the clicks, but it's mean and bitchy just like Sarah.
ReplyDelete1:08 PM
ReplyDeleteBYE
Of course, Palin wants a brokered convention so she can waltz in there like a queen and get handed the nomination without the sound and fury of debates and vetting. She probably really hopes this unlikely event will occur, and then she will whip President Obama with her winkin' and firin' them warning shots skills.
ReplyDeleteIs she missing a wedding ring?
ReplyDeleteHa! She couldnt speak without a TelePrompTer. It would have been word salad otherwise. Saw last 2 minutes of cpac on span. Same ol words used. Idiot!
ReplyDeleteSpeech summary: bad wig a teleprompter and some USA! USA! chanting over the hecklers. That is all.
ReplyDeleteSarah is using Bristol Palin as much as possible to get it out there in the media and try to create her"brand".The hair dresser classes must not be working out.
ReplyDeleteWhen Bristol was waving her finger around in the video was she telling her Mom to wrap it up? I think Sarah switched wigs with Willow for CPAC.
ReplyDeleteWhat a shame DH and I live 2000 miles away and could not go and pick up our free signed book.
ReplyDeleteWasn't Bristol going to give out 100 books to the first 100 people who came. Was she not even able to give her book away?
ReplyDeleteFor her CPAC speech, she's surprisingly unadorned. No flag pin, Star of David, or giant gaudy cross.
ReplyDeleteOh, good God, is that the outfit Sarah wore to accept an award from a conservative womens group.
ReplyDeleteShe looks like Tammy Wynette about to go on stage with the giant hair and rhinestone Christian belt buckle.

ReplyDeleteKeep GinaM out of the troll's jail!
GinaM is witty and funny and brutally honest, all things i find lacking in todays world.
Keep up the good work GinaM.
If someone is offended by her style, pass her comments by. That is easy with her NAME and AVATAR there on top of her posts!
I wonder since they trademarked their names, every time sarah says her name publicly , bristol gets royalties and vice versa??
ReplyDeletewomanwithsardinecan said "Somebody must have grabbed the Wasilla hillbilly when she hit town and had her gussied up."
ReplyDeleteSERIOUSLY!!! Because she hit town in that UGLY outfit that she wore for the opening of "The Severely Defeated" in Iowa.
Purple hair??? Full name? And yes that's WIllow.
ReplyDeleteHere you go Gryphen. This is especially for you. Just when you thought you'd heard it all. Do read some of the comments.
ReplyDelete@1:08 you wrote a lot to say very little. If you are that jealous of GinaM, goodbye and good riddance. As for Granny Grifter telling her lies about getting the Government out of her way, her entire Family lives with Government Paid Healthcare. When did TODD last hold a real job, or anyone else in her GRIFTING FAMILY? The Poster Family for LACK OF EDUCATION. The WE ARE VICTIMS FAMILY.
ReplyDelete"damaging the minds of young conservative women"
ReplyDeleteIf that's what you call inspiring people to be self-reliant, ok then, it's accurate.
I'm happy Nancy and Bristol are still friends though, and that they're both proud of their book.
How nice to turn this into a personal insult Anon 12:47. What, no name? Eh, you'd probably use a fake one.
ReplyDeletenswfm, why are you dissing FL? FL has a good leader who knows what he's doing. How many unhappy people do you see there? I visit several times a year and see few in comparison with every other part of the country. Just my opinion though.
ReplyDeleteAnonymous 1:08 PM, I agree, too. A few of GinaM's retorts in each thread are cute. But, just like pepper, a little is good, but too much ruins a dish.
ReplyDeleteGenerally, I just skim over all the "Baldy" stuff. But when people like Wendy the Waitress are forced to leave, that's sad.
womanwithsardinecan, doesn't she usually have her hair done in the town the speech is in? DIdn't Gryphen post an article from her stylist, from like OCt last year? I'm asking.
ReplyDeleteIt looks like the Grifters are viewing IM on their BLACKBERRIES. They can't get enough of you, Gryphen. It must suck to be them.
ReplyDeleteWhile I think the quirky Perils of Palin is hilarious, sometimes brilliant, I also think some may view an adult playing with dolls as ¨dysfunctional.¨
ReplyDeleteI also like GinaM.
Politics is a bloodsport. Sarah and her bots will use anything (including the murders of six people in Tucson) to manipulate others. We need more Perils of Palins and GinaMs.
" She couldnt speak without a TelePrompTer. It would have been word salad otherwise"
ReplyDeleteSEE Sarah. You DO have one thing in common with Obama. ^
Yeah Sarah! A brokered convention is EXACTLY what the GOP needs. You are so smugly stupi---I mean smart . . . . .
ReplyDeleteShe said "Bristol came with me" at the end. I think. She didn't say Palin. And yes it's WIllow, lover of big hair.
ReplyDeleteHmm...no baby props?
ReplyDelete1:08Pm....here let me repost this comment since you obviously didn't read it the first time I posted it in the other thread where you pretty much said the same thing to me.
ReplyDelete"Whatever troll. Save your lectures for your OWN blog. This is Gryphen's blog...he chooses what comments to post...including yours. You don't want to be civil otherwise you wouldn't still be on here screeching out my name.
I could careless what you or any trolls think of MY comments. As I said before...you don't know me and I don't know you. We are just comments in a blog. It's impossible for me to take what you say seriously because this shit is not that serious to me.
Don't read my comments and since you are anonymous(not that there is anything wrong with that)if you complain about MY comments by name then you are expecting a response from me. And now you just got one :)
Peace out troll!
10:42 AM"
And Gryphen thank you for the H/T...you didn't have to do it but I appreciate it just the same :)
I did watch Baldy screaming at the top of her lungs and I'm going to post what I thought here in a while!
One thing. Anon gave Wendy Waitress credence when that person was probably just another bullshitter who loves stirring the pot of lies. Nothing rings true from these people for a reason.
ReplyDelete" I have been coming here for catharsis"
Really? You find juvenile snark, opinion, and weird, unsubstantiated rumors cathartic? Run to the bookstore and pick up a dictionary NOW.
Is that Wallow at 1:17? If so.... boy she is chunkin' up...I wonder why?
ReplyDeletePics of Baldy at the Woman of year show her disrespectfully wearing Jeans and black top (no boobs)
And then a miracle happens!
At her screeching H8 screech she was wearing a black short skirt and the Belmont "Girls" were back!!!
Heh I guess she is ready for action tonight!
Check out her AA bodyguard. I wonder if she will "haul his ass down" tonight???
Oh for the Whiners about GinaM. Get a grip.
Its a BLOG!
You must really have problems in your life if you can't "Dill" with a BLOG!
*Peace out*
Sarah Palin is a dominionist, and the dominionists not only have seen all their dogs kicked out of this show, but to them, Mormons and Catholics are as welcome as atheists, pagans and ringworm. Of course the Grisly One is hoping for a brokered convention - all the dominionists are. It will be their opportunity to implant one of their own into the race w/out any of the vetting of the long primary the rest have gone through. She hasn't endorsed anyone yet b/c she won't endorse anyone who isn't a fellow dominionist cult member. As for Palin appointing incompetent high school chums to state gov't positions, quit looking at Wasilly High and look at the Assembly of God and her fellow prayer warriors - the same cult whose members Capt Zero has continued to appoint. This isn't complicated.
ReplyDeleteOnly the Palin camp would have a ghostwriter at a book signing. It raises some strange, Sarah-strange, questions. Does Bristol need a stand-in shield for Tripp? Are Sarah and Bristol blaming the ghost writer for the book´s failure? Is the ghost writer there to share the blame for the book´s failure? Is the ghost writer there to answer questions about the book Bristol could not answer earlier?
ReplyDeleteOnly one thing is clear: The ghost writer is holding the frightened Bristol´s hand.
The pair looks like Buffalo Bob and Howdy Doody.

I can find intelligent discourse somewhere else then.
It used to be that Palin "screeches". Her CPAC speech was one totally long "squeal"! A long, drawn out squeal--like a pig with lipstick.

A number of people including Chuckie have said that Palin is not calling the shots, which I tend to believe. I think she wanted to announce a candidacy so bad she could taste it and was finally told, back off or else. I also think she was shoved, big time, out of the governor's mansion. Debatable, I'm sure. But if the strings are being pulled, whose interests would be served by agitating to drag out the primary fight? Apart from the most seriously disturbed TeaBaggers, I mean. Surely the big money and players behind the GOP scene realize they have to hold their noses & get behind Mitt.
ReplyDeletelol..this loon will never stop trying to undermine the process when it doesnt include her.
ReplyDeleteand that is what she is trying to do,
make herself relevant by trying to dictate the process.
well blame the other loons of the party for not calling her out on her ridiculous arguments especially the idea that "people want to protect their candidate". LOL well thats EXACTLY what these primaries are for.
the idea that a brokered convention will come away with a better candidate that hasnt gotten the support of the people through their votes is so juvenile and insane that she should be laughed out of the place.
the only people who want brokered conventions are the people whose candidate couldnt hack the process.
about time for romney to take this idiot on and when he does he will realize the fence sitters will rush to his side because palin has very little support outside of the crazies and they hate romney already.
Gryphen full speech (I think embeddable) here.
ReplyDeleteI think some peeps DID try to disrupt her speech per one of the commenters post something from the Urinenation.

Anon 1:08, I hear you. You (and I) will get flamed for your comment, but it's good that you made it. I can't say I'm leaving, but I see where you are coming from.
ReplyDeleteMany Republicans are leaving the party or not participating in the primaries due to the crap choices. Consequently, CPAC is concentrating the shitty right-wing dregs and $arah, well, she shits whoppers.
ReplyDeleteNever watched CPAC before and glad I never will again...but whoever the guy who introduced the lady who introduced Baldy (yeah, I know) was...the man looked like the JOKER!
ReplyDeleteHis mouth when he smiled went half way up his face! Never seen anything like it! Then the lady who introduced Baldy was an African American lady by the name of Millie something or other...she started introducing Baldy with all kinds of adjectives that didnt decribe Baldy at all.
I almost thought they were goint to bring out somebody else!! She was saying shit like..."this lady is WISE, savy, a force not to be silenced"...yeah okay.
Then Baldy came out with some kind of shiny blood red shirt on swinging her fake boobies! Only problem was the boobs looked WRONG! I think she had on two different sizes or something. Her skirt was black and extremely TIGHT and her booty was flat as a pancake!
And that HAIR! Whoever did her wig... over did the frosting...and that black hair sticking out at the bottom was just LAZY! And when the camera pulled back and showed Baldy at the podium...her head looked GINORMOUS!
I think the two or three wigs on her head made the size of her head look abnormal!
Now the SCREECH! She paid somebody for that mess! I guess we'll find out when she releases the numbers from BaldyPac this summer!
Anywho, she was on FIRE! Only if you like to watch fire breathing dragons spewing out insults to the President and Washington "plutocrats"...I'm sure the patients at Asylum thought she was fantastic.
She looked like she was reliving her RNC speech from 08! She was at her nastiness about President Obama...I won't put what she was saying...there will be a transcript for sure.
Watching her all I could do was smile and laugh! It doesn't matter who writes these "fiery screeches" for her and she delivers them that way....she still isn't a power player!
She is so far from having any kind of political influence that I couldn't help chuckling every time she looked at the camera and did her pointy knuckle thing while spitting out insults...all I could think....THE WOMAN IS A JOKE!
I did see the hecklers get escorted out...and all Baldy did was stand there with that rickety smile going across her face. Of course she had nothing to worry about...you could see the big black security guy on the stage!
Whichever detox facility they had her in for the last week...is a real good one! Considering how she looked half dead earlier in the week...they did manage to put her together long enough for her to read her screech....off the TELEPROMPTER! She wasn't fooling nobody!
Now she has to make it through the interview with Chris Wallace. If I'm not mistaken...she should tape the show today...and they'll show it tomorrow.
Now I guess I'll head to the asluymn and see what the patients are saying about her not announcing her run for President...although according to a comment posted today...the patients were more concerned with Baldy's security...check this comment out...
fllwtheldr 29 minutes ago in reply to Al B.
Nope she's not relevant at all /s. I am really liking the looks of that security in the vid clip. They don't look like they would mess around. They don't look like regular security either- look more like secret service, though I'm sure they aren't. Maybe spec ops.
"spec ops".....Yeah...sure! LOL!!!
I've come to the conclusion that if Gryph is IM's super-ego, GinaM is its Id.
ReplyDeletewas Palin in a red satin nightwear at CPAC?
ReplyDeleteBRAVO ! TO THE FOLLOWING COMMENTER:
ReplyDeleteI'm f***ing tired of juvenile accusations that I'm "Baldy" anytime I voice an opinion that dissents from GinaM and her sycophants. And I am not picking on GinaM because she always signs her name, but because the tone of her comments is so consistently disrespectful to anyone who disagrees with her or anyone who has the audacity to ask her to be more civil in her tone.
""The hour has come"---Das Marchen
Appareantly Gryphen's call for civility only applies to some commenters. Gina apparently does not think the rules apply to her. Oh yeah! Now I remember who that reminds me of, Sarah Palin.
I am areally disappoinated that Gryphen continues to allow this person to tarnish his blog the way she does.
Gryphen you are lowering your bar here, not raising it. This is exactly the same "sound" Palin makes, right down to the victimhood.
Enough is enough. Have you no pride?
I have to agree with Anonymous 1:08. I dislike SP as much as anyone, but many comments are just over the top. It is really mean to call her "Baldy." If she really has lost her hair, that is just uncalled for to make such a comment. And I was attacked too like Wendy when I tried to point out on another anti-Palin blog that they were barking up the wrong tree with the LLC real property ownership issue. I was accused of all sorts of things when I was just trying to help with some actual knowledge of how the name process for a registered company works. We should all be better than she is and not sink to her level.
ReplyDeleteSarah supporters, donate to SarahPAC now! Sarah should be the 2012 Republican Party presidential nominee! SHE'S THE ONE we want! Prove to the world that American conservatives are even more inane than their nominee! Be witness to President Obama winning reelection by the biggest landslide in history!

ReplyDeleteSarah Palin CPAC Speech Drowns Out Occupy Protesters
...She mocked the president's "Winning the Future" campaign, reusing a joke about the initials.
"Win the future, W-T-F, I know," she said.
Palin also spent a significant amount of bashing other national politicians, if not by name. She said many come to Washington promising they will eliminate government and call it a "cesspool." "It's not a cesspool, more like a hot tub," she quipped.
She said Tea Party members of Congress, especially those elected in 2010, are not included in those remarks, and that in 2012 they need to win the Senate to change government.
"Maybe instead of calling Washington a swamp, we should call it a wetland. Then maybe it would slow the growth of government," she said.
Palin has not endorsed a candidate, and did not do so on Saturday. She said continuing the race will strengthen the nominees and that Republicans must "stand united behind whoever our nominee is." She hinted, though, that some might be better than others.
"Our candidate must be someone who can instinctively turn right to constitutional conservative principles," she said, "it's too late to teach it at this point."

ReplyDeleteRegrettably, I agree. The attacks on commenters have seriously degraded the discussion. Not to mention the discussion is often childish, and, (oh dare I say it?) immature in it's content.
This blog is dedicated to finding the truth, exposing the lies, and holding our politicians and leaders accountable when they fall far short of the promises that they have made to both my fellow Alaskans and the American people.
Mr. Gryphen, I think you have strayed from your mission statement, and should consider an overhaul. I really appreciate what this blog has been, but I'm not so sure of what it is turning into.
Seriously. It is not what it was.
The Jeb Bush thing has been covered on a some of the alternative sites for over 2 weeks. I think Sarah has been 'tasked' to keep the ball rolling with the 4 characters vying for the rep. nomination so
ReplyDeletethey can publicly destroy each other by the time the convention rolls around & clear the path for
Bush no.3. Bush will likely chose Romney as a vp. Barack needs to get his ducks in a row - & they better be some MEAN ducks to go against the likes of Bush & co.
& their $$multi-billions. We maybe should forget about nit-picking
the '4' the media (& Palin)keep pushing in our faces & consentrate on the Bush 'surprise,' that is likely.

She looks weird in that black outfit with the sparkly belt - and she damn near strangled Bristol - if anyone in my family grabbed me around the neck in that fashion I would leave home immediately never to return.
ReplyDeleteAnyone been to the C of P today - they must be drooling - not to mention paying for next years travel
You know what? I don't actually hate the Palins. I see them as a symptom of our terribly sick corptocracy. Certainly, she is ignorant. She doesn't care. She's photogenic, and she can give a good speech written by somebody else: In essence, she's an "excellent actress". Good for her. Bad for the poor, illiterate, chrisinazis who follow her. If you live in a red state, I encourage you to go out and register as a republican. That's why I and my family have done. We can do nothing about the general election, because our state would vote for satan if he had an (R) behind his name. So, you make sure to register before your state primary as a republican, in this election. Then you vote, for the most CRAZY UNELECTABLE candidate that you can. Come general election day, you vote the way SANE PEOPLE vote. That is how you respond to people like Palin.

Sarah Palin Receives the Most Depressing Rendition of the "Happy Birthday" Song We've Ever Heard
ReplyDeleteFrom the looks of the shrieking, camera-wielding mob that slowly crawled its way across the Marriott lobby this afternoon, we thought for a moment that Ronald Reagan himself had been reincarnated by CPAC scientists as this year's grand finale. But it was only Sarah Palin, still attracting the same vortex of attention — here, at least, among her people — as she ever did at the peak of her powers. This was before tonight's keynote speech, for which hundreds of people lined up hours in advance. So many people, in fact, that three overflow rooms were set up to accomodate them all. When Palin was introduced onstage at around 4:40 p.m., she was greeted by a loud, sustained standing ovation, a standing ovation that would be reprised many times.
The speech was so full of red meat that Palin may as well have just butchered a live cow onstage and tossed various bloody cuts into the crowd. It was all red meat — "the government rich," bureaucrats, "spread the wealth around," Solyndra, negotiating with the Taliban, cooperating with the Kremlin, EPA, lightbulbs, "crony capitalism," plutocrats, "community organizer," "lowering the sea levels," "Chicago politician," biased media. It was the Sarah Palin we all know and love, or despise, but nothing in between.
When it was over, Palin shook hands with a few lucky CPACers in the audience, while in the hallway outside of the ballroom, dozens of fans crowded around the doors which, over the course of the past few days, most speakers have emerged from after leaving the stage. Anxiously, they waited for Palin. And waited. The minutes ticked by. Eventually, they tried to coax Palin out by serenading her with the "Happy Birthday" song (Palin turns 48 today). It was just after they finished that a CPAC staffer informed them, "Sarah is gone. She left the building." Watch the video below, with a special cameo by my index finger.
http://nymag.com/daily/intel/2012/02/sarah-palin-cpac-speech.html
The Chin doesn't get money when her name is said; Sarah is just trying to keep "the brand" out there. Bristol probably googles herself every day just to see how she's doing.
ReplyDeleteCBS reports Palin "rocked CPAC". Her red, white and blue remark sounded racist.
ReplyDeleteI said it before and I'll say it again--the TP'ers are the John Birchers on steroids with much better PR, and their daffy puppet Queen at the helm. I'm surprised HP didn't give her speech the lead story--all the comments so far are negative to The Griz and her salivating followers. Seems everyone is on to her speechwriter's little soundbyte tricks that are easy for the faithful to remember and spout over the next few months. And of course, the sheep must all forgive her the use of the dreaded TelePrompTer, 'cause she's just too busy and important to memorize her lines, or are they being fed to her as they go along?
ReplyDeleteAnd you can bet the family knives and forks that she'll be sucking up to whoever the nominee is--brokered convention or not. I notice she didn't heap praise on Snewt now that Romney is ahead. I'd really love to know who's pulling her strings--Koch? Fundies? Dick Armey?
Gryphen,
ReplyDeleteYour pointed shout out to Gina M as a "friend" has me wondering if you regard long time commentors leaving or considering leaving. I'll be taking a break given snarling attacks when people make a reasonable observation.
Thanks for all you have done and shared. Ditto for comments here.
Geezzz... No wonder a huge swath of our country is in such disarray... Flying Monkey Queens blistering for evermore the minds of college women in texas with a steady stream of moose-pellets and Murdoch propaganda. What would you expect for the next century coming out of THAT little gathering...

ReplyDelete"damaging the minds of young conservative women"
If that's what you call inspiring people to be self-reliant, ok then, it's accurate.
I'm happy Nancy and Bristol are still friends though, and that they're both proud of their book.
1:37 PM
Um....I'm sure "Nancy and Beefalo are still friends"....Nancy was PAID to keep Beefy's secrets and only a Palin could be proud of a book written by a teenager describing in gruesome details their sexual exploits. YUCK!
Having watched the first half of Ms Palin's appearance at CPAC, and read the gist of her interviews today, I am left with one impression: she has been recharged with a new set of catchy phrases, wound up, and presented to a crowd desperate for answers. Someone with her ability to electrify a room, that 'it' factor, is so empty of genuine material. She was gleeful in her divisiveness.
ReplyDeleteSick making.
Aurora
Sarah gets woman of the year and her faithful purse holder isn't there?...The daughters look like tramps, and my young men wouldn't touch them- ever...just screams herpes.
ReplyDeleteyep you read that right...
BTW, the Kiddie Pool is awash in "The future President of the United States spoke tonight!!!!!" (all in caps with more exclamation points) and their fave commenter Bri-youknowwho will be analyzing her "momentous speech" over the next few days! They're also shaking the last few nickels out of their piggy banks and doing a money bomb for her birthday. G'wan and check it out.
ReplyDeleteShe's their Elvis--without the massive talent.
Gooly geez, the concern trolls on here are pitiful. Now it´s time for me to go back to the C4P and show my support for Sarah, who is single-handedly destroying the Evangelicals (the dumbfocks think we´re hurting the Republicans).
ReplyDeleteThat family is nothing but GUTTER TRASH and proud of it. I have never seen such sorry excuses for humanity in my LIFE.
ReplyDeleteGo away for a couple of hours, come back, new post, and 96 comments already! ☺ Now to read them. You guys are great.
ReplyDeleteI agree with Anonymous 1:08. I read often but seldom post and always anonymously. I'm a professional working for a high profile company in Alaska so I really don't want anyone to know who I am. I can't stand Palin or anything she stands for and never voted for her but the mean junior high girl name calling demeans this blog. It certainly won't do anything to convince others that we are reasonable in our objections to Palin...and that is what we should be striving for. When I open IM, for some reason it shows my location as Wasilla. I live in the Susitna Valley 35 miles away from Wasilla. Interesting to note that after I open IM occasionally I'll see sarcastic remarks like, "Hi Wasilla", the assumption being that I'm a Palin troll. Paranoia like that doesn't help our cause either.
ReplyDeleteI'm with Anon 1:08! Love your blog Uncle Gryphen. It's just hard to stomach the name-calling after the tenth time. It's like GinaM is pulling double duty trying to match the nastiness of a C4Per/TBagger.
ReplyDeleteCome on GinaM. Bring it back up to your original, witty and funny snark. You've gone too deep in the Palin rabbit hole.
FUCK YOU, John McCain. THIS will be your legacy.
ReplyDeleteAnon @ 1:40,
ReplyDeleteAre you nuts? I live in South Florida. Our governor is a criminal asshole with a history of multimillion dollar fraud who has no idea what he is doing. Our foreclosure rates and unemployment rates are among the worst in the entire country. And don't get me started on my congressman, Allen West.
You don't see unhappy people here? Are you kidding? While it's true that many of the unhappy ones left in a mass exodus, many of those who stayed are part of the third highest homeless population in the United States. For those of us who were fortunate to cling (barely)to our homes despite the economy, we now owe more than double what our homes are worth today, and insurance premiums have tripled in the past two years.
Staying at tourist resorts won't give you an accurate picture. When you visit, try driving around where the real people live. Pay special attention to the foreclosure signs.
Sarah sounds like Chance, The Gardner.
ReplyDeleteBrokered = Christie or Jeb.
Rethugs aren't that worried about Willard The Mutt Torturer. The have no qualms about assassination and then blaming it on the Dems.
They almost assassinated Reagan but he had made a pact with the devil and he lived. Reagan: I want to be a great, famous actor. Devil: I'm only the devil. Even I can't make you a great actor. How about if I make you President? Reagan: Deal!
Was it coincidence that VP George HW Bush had a meeting scheduled with John Hinckley's brother on the day of Reagan's assassination attempt?
After Reagan left office the Repubs bought him a house in CA - one small problem: street address was 666 - so they had it changed.
Looks like they bought a new supply of Bumpits!!!

$arah elected herself Ditherer-in-Chief.
ReplyDeleteAnon @2:01: She looks great in those photos.
ReplyDeleteIn any brokered convention the nominee would be the Jebster. Convention in Florida? Yup, it'll be brokered, with the Jebster as the candidate. This has been in the plans for years, hence the RNC decided to trot out only non-winnable candidates, knowing that none other than the Jebster could, at the last minute, pull the party together. The Jebster's family claims to be very close to the Romney family so, yes, it could well be a Jebster-Romney ticket. But I doubt that the ticket, brokered or otherwise, will have Sarah's name on it. Nevertheless, I encourage everyone to vote, since she could still end up with a high-level job – and great demagogic power – in any republican administration.
ReplyDelete@TS: 3:10: That weird head-lock thing Palin did make her look like she'd been drinking.
ReplyDeleteO/T Just reported that Whitney Houston died today at the age of 48. She was one of my favorite artist...back when she could still sing. Drug abuse is NO JOKE!!

Dear GinaM
ReplyDeleteYou are a breath of fresh air among the mumblings of the trolls who would pretend they are IM fans. Please don't let them drive you away - which is the plan.
I had no idea why supporters of the failed politician, failed mother and outright dumb idiot come to IM - but tis obvious they think they can somehow stop the enjoyment & popularity of the posters/blog.
May they implode when President Obama is returned in a landslide of love and intelligence.
Come on GinaM. Bring it back up to your original, witty and funny snark. You've gone too deep in the Palin rabbit hole.

Although I comment anonymously, I have to say I appreciate comments with names. It's a lot easier to skip the comments I know will be sprinkled with worn-out nicknames and low shock near profanity.
ReplyDeleteNo one makes me read the blog entries that G posts and no one makes me read every comment.
Sharon & anon@401p, that's the one thought that occurred to me after I posted about who could be pulling the strings: a None of the Above waiting in the wings who is not among the current None of the Above. But if a Jeb or Christie is seriously the best they could do to ride in on that white horse...bring it on, baby!

ReplyDeleteWhoa! That SP candle is $55.00! I wonder how much kick-back Baldy herself is getting, since the name is trademarked and all.
That would be a scary addition to our Halloween display, however.

I'm glad people are happy when you visit Florida.
FARK--on Gryphen's blogroll--has it's own Florida tag. One example from Florida FARK:

http://www.tampabay.com/blogs/the-buzz-florida-politics/content/sound-crickets-some-herman-cains-top-fla-supporters-are-asked-about-harassment-charges
Lotsa happy people who have been foreclosed on illegally with foreclosure mills and crooked judges....
Just only a few reasons why I commented about Florida.
What kind of hug is that for her daughter.
ReplyDeleteYou get the feeling she may not know how to hug someone or put an arm around them while walking?
Gosh that was awkward looking.
I visit here frequently as well and we all really, truly and in our hearts know that there is no "Fred" with a babygate book and there NEVER have been any icebergs revealed here. This website is kind of like the Perez Hilton of all things Palin; a diversion from life with nasty biting commenters that are half off their rockers and suffering from some PDS, but generally people don't come here to get "real info" they just come here for the carnival sideshow.
ReplyDeleteI don't know if this was the blogger's initial intent but that is what the blog has become.
Palin may have her hallucinations about the outcome of a brokered convention, but no way is that what the men behind the curtain have in mind.
ReplyDeleteHoly shit, Yahoo, which is usually a festering hotbed of reactionary anger, has turned on Palin in the worst way. I haven't checked their thread out in a while and I shocked at how they have turned on Palin. Does she even realize how universally despised she has become?
ReplyDeleteGinaM

There is a "Fred" and a book.
There was a iceberg all set to hit Baldy.
I don't know why it didn't but she did QUIT? Doncha wonder why?
If you are one on the whiners...save it.
This is a BLOG afterall.
If you can't "Dill" with a blog...how do you "Dill" in real life?
The songs she sang in 'Bodyguard' were the ones I loved the most. I will truly miss her beautiful voice. May she find peace.

Whitney Houston's Last Performance: Singer Sang 'Yes, Jesus Loves Me' Night Before She Passed
Just one night before she passed away at the age of 48, Whitney Houston took to the stage to sing "Yes, Jesus Loves Me" at the Kelly Price & Friends pre-Grammy concert on February 10th.
Watch the video below to see Houston's strong, and now eerie, performance.
The singer passed on the eve of the Grammy Awards in Los Angeles. The singer was pronounced dead at 3:55 pm at the Beverly Hills Hilton Hotel, according to TMZ. A cause of death was not immediately known, and details are still emerging at this time.

Sad day today. Whitney Houston died, $P won a round and my favorite blogger condoned name calling, pissing contests, and attacks on people for expressing reasonable disagreement.
ReplyDeleteTo quote you, Gryphen, "so when we ugly the place up we are essentially telling possible return visitors to go someplace else.

ReplyDeleteAurora
5:17..agree, it is not what it started out to be and I've been here for 3 yrs..along with the Bree and Palin Deceptions blogs. The Inquirer mentality has taken over with all the nasty remarks, even going so far as to call each other names. It is really sad because this used to be to go to blog for information. I think most of the original commenters have left and a new bunch has taken over, that is why the comments are always high in the Palin threads but not the others. And no I am not a troll!
ReplyDelete,,,Sister Sarah referred to Obama as an international community organizer, and it seemed the whole purpose of her keynote address was to throw a temper tantrum over losing the 2008 election. If you have heard Sarah Palin speak once in the last few years, then you’ve already heard this speech. Palin mocked Obama as the messiah who promised to lower the tides and sea levels.
ReplyDeleteThis address was the final coda of Sarah Palin. She had nothing to offer. Her address was stuck in the past. She is still trying to run her 2008 campaign strategy of lies and personal attacks against President Obama.
Palin’s bitterness over her irrelevance was palpable. She pulled out all of her greatest hits. She attacked the EPA. She tried to play the Washington outsider. Palin worked in crony capitalism.
Just to show how completely out of touch she is, Sarah told the Occupy Wall Street protesters that they were protesting the wrong place and thing. It is obvious that Palin doesn’t pay attention to the news.
She doesn’t follow current events and she has no idea what is going on, or maybe she is just the typical Fox News viewer. (However, Palin did tie Obama’s singing of Al Green to Chicago style politics and corruption). Palin also worked in complaints about the media and the left destroying her and attacking her family. (More standard Sarah Palin bitterness).
Palin had declined to speak at CPAC, because they don’t pay their speakers. Each of the last three years, Palin would either blow off CPAC or she would commit and cancel on them. Now that she has finally hit rock bottom, Sarah Palin agreed to speak at CPAC.
The activists at CPAC were drunk on the vapors of Palin’s past celebrity, but the truth is that CPAC organizers should be happy they didn’t pay her. Because even at a cost of nothing, CPAC got ripped off by Sarah Palin.

At the 0:27 mark, Brisket is mocking her mom's finger tick while emphasizing "No" to some random white guy facing Beefalo, after which some guard's shoulder shifts to block the view. Ha ha ha... Sarah got her back by mentioning her name and giving her noogies on her purple hair.

ReplyDeleteReally, Gryph? A shout-out to GinaM, the commenter who most blatantly disregards your New Years call to civility (apart from the Palin trolls, that is)? I have watched in distress for several months as she has bullied long-time commenters and supporters of this blog, including me, using the same tactics we (rightfully) criticize in Palin and RAM. She is as nasty and divisive as Sarah--much more divisive than the obvious trolls here, because no one takes them seriously (and we all know most of "them" are just one person).
With this encouragement from you, I can only see her getting worse.
I have decided, with regrets, to stop visiting IM. For 18 months, I have been coming here for catharsis, news on the icebergs that cannot sink SS Palin soon enough, and sophisticated snark--
not to revisit junior high, which was bad enough the first time around.
I am not a Palin or a PAC-paid flunky. I have, in fact, contributed guest posts to one of the blogs on the "Sarah Palin's least favorite" blogroll. (I'm staying anonymous because I don't need blog drama spilling over into my real life.)
I'm f***ing tired of juvenile accusations that I'm "Baldy" anytime I voice an opinion that dissents from GinaM and her sycophants. And I am not picking on GinaM because she always signs her name, but because the tone of her comments is so consistently disrespectful to anyone who disagrees with her or anyone who has the audacity to ask her to be more civil in her tone.
The dynamic that has taken over IM comments reminds me of the Wendy the Waitress situation, when bullies prevailed to drive off a valuable source of Palin information and insight. The same thing is happening again. GinaM and her ilk couldn't serve Sarah better if they were on the PAC payroll.

Yes you hit the nail on the head.
Its one or two whiners.
Maybe a troll to boot.
Really is funny how do these people function in life? Maybe that's why they have to play with dolls all time?
All I want to know is: whatever drug cocktail Palin is one for her appearances at CPAC. Potent stuff. Have to say that an adoring audience sure perks her up. Nothing like those fireside chats with reluctant FOX hosts.
ReplyDeleteI can't believe that she can morph into some superwoman when she wants to. How many hours will she spend in the fetal position as a result?
Inquiring minds want to know.
RIP Whitney. It was no real surprise, but it is tragic just the same. Whitney at her worst was still more attractive and talented than Sarah will ever be. Damn drugs.
Yeah I'd say that was Willow.
ReplyDeleteWhat is with all the back-combed hair?
I usually post under "Anonymous" because I have a fancy schmancy job and don't want anyone to know my name or address, but when I log into Google, it says I'm from Wasilla, but I'm 30 miles away blah blah blah....
ReplyDeleteThe anti Gina M Troll is in overdrive tonight. My guess is they're just jealous that Gryphen used some of her links in his post, and aren't afficionados of Gina's brilliant snark. She's imitiating Sarah, herself, while she picks Sarah apart. That takes talent.
Here's a novel idea, don't like Gina M's posts, don't read them. She's easy to skip because she has a registered name AND avatar (that's a picture thingy that helps people identify a poster easily). It's called "Free Will", people, use it!
I, for one, come here to read Gryphen's posts AND Gina's comments because they're cathartic, interesting, and entertaining.
I usually post under the name "Anita Winecooler" not because I have a fancy schmancy job and don't want anyone to know my real name, but because my real name is "Anonymous" and my comments would get lost in the mix.
Keep up the good work Gryphen and Gina M! Thanks, Gryphen, for allowing free speech, I love reading the santimonious troll comments almost as much as they feel their comments are soooooo important that they have to repeat them, you know, so people will think they're seriously leaving if you don't bend to their wishes.
I'm a regular reader and have been for years though I seldom comment.
ReplyDeleteThought I should admit that I quit reading GinaM's comments some time ago as I found them increasingly unsettling. The snarling, vicious dog in her avatar is as much GinaM (as she presents herself here) as it is SarahP.
And yes, of course, it's easier to call someone a "troll" than to consider the possibility that the criticism offered might have some merit . . . .

And Sarah's clenched jaw and fists are sure signs of her inner peace.
I have faith that she'll continue to restore inhumanity to this country. Bless her absent heart.

So called troll at 1:08, thank you. You have said things I wanted to say. I hate the attacks on appearance and age. Attack for stupid statements and false values - great! But stupid statements about age??? Don't all of you understand that you, too, if lucky, will become older?
ReplyDeleteI particularly hate the menapause crap. That's a natural state of human life - like being a baby or a teenager. Normal life experience.
Went to a birthday party today in a tiny Bristol Bay (Alaska) village. One villager said, "I woke up to Sarah Palin speaking today. It was an awful way to wake up." Another villager chimed in quietly, "I can't stand that woman."
ReplyDeleteI don't know anyone who likes her except for a 90 year old man who's showing signs of Alzheimer's disease. He is hard of hearing and keeps the TV on 24/7, tuned to Fox.
Read this on HuffPo comments. Anybody know what this is about??
ReplyDeleteSarah has said that her mother would zip into socialist Canada to have her babies...what do Americans do when they can't zip into Canada anymore? Also...this means Sarah, in fact, was born in Canada, not the US.

WOO HOO, the author hawking a book, who got the "scoop" by "interviewing" some doctor named Brad Snotrocket (or something like that, and such) with some crazy idea about Trig and Ruffles that he stole from some now defunct blog and spun as his own?
So there! Take that, Gina M.!!!!!
ha ha ha ha!!!!! ROTFL.

Too funny!
Yeah, I was so bummed over Whitney's death that I watched "The Bodyguard". She had rare talent, a five octave range, and I hope she's at peace. Fame, Drugs and Alcohol along with a bad marriage is a lethal cocktail.
As a mother, I can't wrap my mind around a child left motherless and a mother left childless.
RIP Nippy
