We all laughed, and laughed, and laughed at their stupidity, because of course the longer people keep addressing this incredibly embarrassing episode the longer it lasts in the public psyche and that can only be a good thing for the liberals and Democrats.
So guess what?
Are we absolutely SURE that this idiot is not working as a double agent for the DNC?America's kids are going to be stuck paying for Obama's Empty Chair Style of Leadership
— Sarah Palin (@SarahPalinUSA) September 4, 2012#EmptyChairDay twitter.com/SarahPalinUSA/…
Read Jonathan Capehart's response to this! Ouch...that has got to leave a mark!
ReplyDeleteHere's the link to the article: http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/post-partisan/post/sarah-palin-goes-eastwood-on-obama/2012/09/04/75e1924e-f643-11e1-8b93-c4f4ab1c8d13_blog.html
DeleteJonathan Capehart is one of my favorite Rachel Maddow commentators. He says everything with a smile and good humor.
DeleteZING !!!
DeleteWell played, Mr Capehart.
DeleteIs the baby chair for Bristol's DWTS child?
ReplyDeleteNo, it's for Sarah's immature, not-that-smart, needs to be strapped in to feed herself self.
DeleteHey, whatever happened to that mall space sarah or her PAC had supposedly rented near the RNC? Was she too embarrassed to show up anywhere near the RNC? Or were the projected sales of her father & brother's book that dismal? No demand for "I Heart Sarah" beer koozies?
ReplyDeleteHmmm. Makes ya wonder...
She couldn't complete her key-making or ear piercing certification course in time...too busy posting inane comments on Twitter and Facebook...
DeleteBTW, I think Chuckie Jr.'s book, "Our Sarah, Made in Alaska," is coming out in the next few weeks, according to the scuttlebutt at the Funny Farm. They're offering autographed (Chuck Jr. and Sr.--NOT Sarah!) copies in some kind of Palinese multiple choice quiz. Too bad it's not a heartfelt essay question--the entries would be just.too.rich. to read online.
Sarah was forbidden to be anywhere in the South during the convention. She was commanded to ¨speak.¨ muzzled, then commanded to ¨speak¨ again. IOW, Sarah was spanked, yet again, on the world stage.
DeleteA lot of you believe Sarah is overpaid at FOX. Ailes signed the ¨moran¨ when reporters from over seventy, that´s right seventy, countries wanted to interview Sarah. Sarah could have made in one month what she will make in three years at FOX.
And Sarah learned this one year ago, after it was too late.
Can you say, ¨Dumbass?¨
LMFAO!
Wow. Once again she draws attention to her fake pregnancy.
ReplyDeleteExactly!
DeleteSarah so desperately wanted people to believe she was still fertile.
The empty booster seat is another prop, ruse, attempt to convince people (herself?) she is still fertile.
Honestly, I can't believe she has a chair for Trig (or Tripp?) at the table. Based on her past parenting flubs, I would've thought they sit on the floor and eat in front of the tv.
ReplyDeleteThat chair is pristine and has never been used. It is probably a baby shower gift for a recent kid born untot hat family that doesn't use it yet.
DeleteGeez. Its the look at me, me, me pole dancer---again.
ReplyDeleteWell, considering democrats are too shallow to get the empty chair/empty suit joke, should YOU be the one to call anyone stupid?
ReplyDeleteI mean, you consistently write lies and weird, sickening propaganda daily.
Oh we "get it", it's just stupid.
DeleteThe joke is on the RNC.
DeleteEVERYONE got it and the response was cringing at the RNC and uproarious laughter from Democrats.
DeleteThe only thing shallow was the empty chair/empty suit joke and those who feel they must defend or explain it.
So funny that that "brilliant" piece of humor was cut from the DVD of the convention. Why do you suppose that was, hmmm?
Once again, please enumerate the lies.
BTW,you forgot to put the words immature, mature and maturity in your post.
Your whine is boring as hell and the only joke perpetuated by Eastwood is on the republican party. Didn't even give them a bump
Deletein the polls and kinda made Mitt take a backseat at the end of the RNC.
Oh,shut up Kristy and tell us all your fantasies about Todd using his 4 inch 2 toned love muscle on you.Why else would you keep making excuses for this family of lying,grifting,pimping,whack jobs?Either you know about Bristol's daddy's exploits with his hookers and are jealous,or you really have that crush on old Scarah.Tell us about Todd and whores.Tell us about Todd drilling peepholes to spy on women changing clothes.Tell us about Todd and Sarah and the wife swapping at the lodge.Tell us about Todd providing prostitutes to help Sarah with government contracts.Tell us these things,Kristy.Then go figure out why we can always tell its you.
DeleteI can't speak for the democrats because I'm a liberal, but the empty chair/suit "joke" was stupid in that it's complete fantasy. maybe if obama quit halfway thru his term it might be applicable.
DeleteIf you have to explain a joke IT ISN'T FUNNY.
DeleteComedy 101.
Look everyone stupid Sarah Palin is posting stupid comments here again. Hahaha!
DeleteOh I got the "joke". If you have to explain a joke, then its an epic fail. BTW, where is Trig? All we see is his empty chair.
DeleteThe Republican's get it. They edited it out of their official DVD of the circus in Tampa.
DeleteIf it was such a "game changer", why did they not keep it?
Sarah, bless her heart, is helping the Democrats by keeping the empty chair in the media.
Sarah reminds me of the kid in school who wants to be popular and parrots last week's joke to whoever will hear, for ATTENTION. It's kind of late to the game for Sarah. All the empty chair drama happened and she wasn't even there to see it.
ReplyDeleteYes, she'll work for the other side if it means putting her name and face on the news. Wouldn't be surprised if Greta has her on this week just to address it. What else can she talk about?
here's the link to Jonathan Capehart's response:
ReplyDeletehttp://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/post-partisan/post/sarah-palin-goes-eastwood-on-obama/2012/09/04/75e1924e-f643-11e1-8b93-c4f4ab1c8d13_blog.html
Just like a spoiled child, she will do anything, positive or negative, for attention.
ReplyDeleteI don’t think that family ever comes up with anything novel. Even faking pregnancies dates WAY back.
ReplyDeleteSarah knows about empty:
ReplyDeleteEmpty head, empty promises, empty governor's office, empty womb...
Thanks Anon @ 7:40 am.
DeleteAlso empty boobs, empty eyes, empty personality, empty marriage ...
Love the empty womb!
DeleteI think that empty chair only opens the door to the fact that "Invisible Trig" was only good for one thing, to get her on a ticket she didn't deserve to be on for her bogus pro-life creds.
ReplyDeleteShe did not give birth to Trig Palin, she capitalized on a family pregnancy to make herself a self-sacrificing, noble martyr. And now he's stuck with her, more-so than she stuck with him.
Sarah didnt get the memo, an EMPTY CHAIR DOESN'T HAVE A SLIMY BOOSTER SEAT ON IT.
ReplyDeleteThe empty headed moron is piggybacking on Clint Eastwood's bizarre skit to get attention...she's pathetic!
ReplyDeleteI've seen the baby seat before. It was Palin's chair in the Governor's office.
ReplyDeleteThe picture was taken the day she QUIT.
Bingo !!! Ratfish. Great comment.
DeleteThis makes no sense in relationship to Eastwood's schtick he had a conversation with Obama as if he was sitting in the chair.
ReplyDeleteI can't grasp how Teabaggers and Palin took "chair" and came away with Obama is an empty chair as the main point.
My greatest flaw is trying to understand stupid and crazy. Chair + child booster seat = no leader and children pay deficit?? What now? Put highchairs in front yards? This is as brilliant as parking in shoulders of highways honking horns idea.
These people have bizarre ideas of how to contribute to society. I have one: ladies, add two cup sizes to your bra to show you are a patriot against felled policies! That will show 'em!
I'm with you! it makes no sense, lol. they are just nuts.
DeleteSarah, Sarah...posting a picture of an empty chair
ReplyDeleteJust reminds us of what's going on under your hair
You've no original thoughts on policy, foreign or domestic
Even Fox News is tired of your same old shtick
Take all your inane mutterings of vitroil and hate
And retreat back to the Great North and hibernate
what a dumb ass "oooh let me jump on the bandwagon."
ReplyDeletethere are things that can be said about obama, but "empty chair style of leadership" is simply not accurate. shit after I wrote that I realized that nothing they say is accurate, so this type of stupid stunt fits right in. oh well.
I look at the picture and think, "Where is Trig?" This is an epic fail for SP.
ReplyDeleteMel68
I look at and think how many babies are in hiding or dumped in a horrible situation.
DeleteThe 24/7 paid for SarahPac nanny brings Trig home to the Palin compound on certain holidays.
DeleteEewww!
ReplyDeleteIs it me or is that booster chair nasty looking? Looks like they bought it at a garage sale.
My grandkids have more suitable looking chairs, and we're not millionaires. But then we value our kids more than boob jobs or fake chins.
Palin has no option left except to stand with the teabaggers. She is no longer included by the Republicans as a prominent spokesperson. She used to promote including the tea party. Now that she has been cast aside she is maxing out her tea affiliation to postpone being a has been politician.
ReplyDeleteIt appears calculated to me that she rally having a third party during the national convention. Palin cares about her place and income. If that means controversey against the hand that catapaulted her she will throw them under the bus too. Clearly she used the party to her end and will use the baggers even if going down means getting trashy, looking trashy with big boobs enhanced with spray tans. Pathetic
O/T and ominous news for the TeaVangelicals and Repubs:
ReplyDelete1) Virgil Goode has made it onto the Virgina ballot as the Conservative party candidate for President, opposing Romney. The Repubs fear this could siphon enough votes away from Romney to lose VA, and give Pres Obama the victory.
http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/09/04/virgil-goode-constitution-party-virginia_n_1854573.html
2) Bigger news is that Ron Paul has a big announcement tonight on Leno. Speculation is he'll run 3rd party, and is no longer a Repub.
It could be just like 2000 when Ralphie Nader stole enough votes to hand the victory to Bush.
http://www.breitbart.com/Big-Government/2012/09/03/Ron-Paul-Not-Ruling-Out-Third-Party-Run-Ahead-Of-Tonight-Show-Announcement
Both items very sweet!
DeleteThe reason that Obama's chair is empty is because he is on his feet, a man of action, doing something. I don't think that the Republicans want to be reminded of Clint Eastwood's unscripted, off the rails performance. However, Sarah must have found it brilliant because she finally thought of a response, long after Jon Stewart and Stephen Colbert had brilliant political skits about The Chair.
ReplyDeleteI wonder why Sarah never mentioned Trig's first words, "Hey big brother, stop picking on me," or more likely, "Stop-it!"
Gina M, where are you? IM is not the same without you! Please come back. We miss you and you being away Krusty is getting bold. Come back and swat her away please.
ReplyDeleteLOL!!! My kids went back to school today...so I've been busy the last couple of days!
DeleteI see that Krusty the Krazy Klown has been a donkey on edge...especially with the gargoyle hillbilly family FINALLY getting their asses handed to them! The Toad lost on that senseless show last night...so now he can go back to pimping!
Next up...Beefy the cow no talent ass on DWTS! More public humiliation for the Palins...isn't life GRAND! LOL!!
Haha... Krusty FEARS GinaM!
Delete"Gryphen, make GinaM stop attacking me..."
Delete... while she continues to post her dumbass attacks on commenters here at IM. Whatever.
Trig and Tripp are too big for that chair. So, who uses it?
ReplyDeleteTodd could be one of those men that like to wear diapers. Or he may have gained some weight. I think the former, using strollers boosters chairs and so on is exciting for him.
DeleteNah, Eastwood is the double agent. He deceived everyone in the RNC by telling them he would follow the teleprompter, but then gets a chair and goes kamikaze.
ReplyDeletePalin is just dumb as a rock ... perhaps the empty chair was to symbolize the nothingness in her head.
She's just plain stupid...smh
ReplyDeleteSpeaking of stupid ideas...
ReplyDelete'Stars Earn Stripes' Finale Hits Series Low
On NBC, the two-hour finale of Stars Earn Stripes scored a series low 0.9 adults 18-49 rating, down 10% from last week's 1.0.

It was a dumb show and Wesley Clark was an awful host. If anyone could be more wooden than MItt, Wesley tried very hard. That's what they get for airing a show between the Olympics and the start of the fall TV schedule. This was a pathetic filler.
DeleteWhat can you say.... the Sarah Palin Curse!
DeleteThat piece of shit show is still on tv?
DeleteSo the way Paul Ryan talked about Solyndra, it stands to reason that the Republican Party would also too be disgusted with Sarah's $500 million transcanada pipeline to nowhere and the bailout of Mat-Maid and all her crony-capitalism?
ReplyDelete-----------------
So here’s the question, without a change in
leadership, why would the next four years be any different from
the last four years?
(APPLAUSE)
The first troubling sign came with the stimulus. President
Obama’s first and best shot at fixing the economy. At a time
when he got everything he wanted under one party rule. It cost
$831 billion. The largest one-time expenditure ever by our
federal government.
It went to companies like Solyndra, with their
gold-plated connections, subsidized jobs and make believe
markets.
The stimulus was a case of political patronage, corporate
welfare anachronism at their worst.
(APPLAUSE)
You — you the American people of this country were cut out
of the deal. What did taxpayers get out of the Obama stimulus?
More debt. That money wasn’t just spent and wasted, it was
borrowed, spent and wasted.
It looks like a potty chair.

WHERE'S TRI-G #1?? Did he get off his leash when Todd took him for a walk into the woods?
ReplyDeleteSarah too cheap to buy a high chair? I guess we were right and all that SarahPAC money goes to illegal drug..errr..."postage"
ReplyDeleteWHERE'S TRISTAN?
ReplyDeleteWHERE'S TRI-G #2?
We OWN Sarah! She is our PUPPET!
ReplyDeleteDance Sarah Dance!
Dear Sarah.
ReplyDeleteThe child known as Trig Palin? You didn't birth that.
Excellent!
DeleteShe did not birth any of them. All the Trigs have other mother or mothers.
DeletePalin is the expert on Empty Chair Leadership. She left her Governor's chair empty for much of her half-term. Then she quit. Awesome - thanks for the reminder Sarah!
ReplyDeleteRemember Sarah - everything you say against Obama is actually a projection of your own bullshit. We can all see it - can you?

Hey, even my 80 year old mother who is a life long Republican, and doesn't like Obama was EMBARRASSED for Clint Eastwood. She asked me if I thought he had Alzheimer or something. She also used the word PATHETIC. No matter what way you spin it, Clint's little skit was AWFUL.
ReplyDeleteIs that the Palin chair Tri-G is strapped to 23 & 1/2 half hours a day?
ReplyDeleteNo that chair has chains and special toddler sized handcuffs custom made by Todd or Chuck. This is the chair he gets the other 1/2 hour for meal time.
DeleteSarah Palin is an idiot. She left her Governors chair vacant half way through her first term as gov of Alaska. I think she best sit down in her high chair and let the grown ups talk.
ReplyDeleteThis is coming from a woman who quit her Governorship halfway through her first term?
ReplyDeleteIrony Alert....Irony Alert!!!
says the inarticulate, empty-versace-suited harridan. has ailes officially not renewed your contract yet, skank? my dog, if so you will really have to resort to cartwheels without your panties to garner any attention you pathetic little girl woman...
ReplyDeleteI'd like to see her try and pronounce Versace. You know she'd tighten up tighter than a snare drum as to pay one red cent for a classy outfit.
DeleteAs I'm sure Bristol Palin knew what Louis Vuitton bags were when snarking on Meghan McCain.
she didn't steal any versace from the RNC?
DeleteSaw an empty chair set outside in the mall. I guess this was in reference to that Clint Eastwood senile old man skit.
ReplyDeleteHey, Sarah Palin, be sure to watch the woman that you IDOLIZE when Michelle Obama gives her speech tonight. I'm sure that she does not use word salad and made up words to try to impress. It SUCKS to be YOU, with the SNUBBING of you by the Republican Party at the RNC. They showed you where you stand in
ReplyDeletePopularity with them, QUITTER.
There goes the crazy old pathetic insufferable bat trying once again to get our President's attention.
ReplyDeleteAs usual she comes in late, without substance, full of bile, overflowing with vitriol and yelling fire.
STFU you useless skank.
Oh yeah, I read our President is too busy to sit around. YAY baby 4 more.
ReplyDeleteWasilla is still trying to climb out of the $20 million hole she dug for it.
ReplyDeleteI just donated $35 because of Sarah's tweet. Every time she tweets something idiotic to get attention, I will donate again. The President thanks you Sarah.

Sarah shh, Dearie this week the grownups are talking!
ReplyDeleteSweet!
DeleteHow are the grandkid, Sarah? Where is Trig's birth certificate?
ReplyDeleteThat Sarah Palin is such a fucking idiot.
ReplyDeleteEmpty Chair Day are the days Gov Sarah Palin couldn't be found in Juneau Alaska. Gov Sarah was in Wasilla watching soap operas and eating Taco Bell Wraps in bed.
Empty Chair Day is the chair the Quitter Sarah Palin rented at the 2012 RNC mall and never showed up!
Empty Chair Day are the days Todd Palin didn't show up for the family dinners because he was too busy screwing prostitutes in Alaska.
Did she just wake up from a days long drugged haze? She always chimes in days after the fact. She has no original thought, just parrots everyone else with her own little added immature spin.
ReplyDeleteGrow UP, Sarah. The adults are in charge.
What a fucking loser!
ReplyDeleteAlaska Independence Party member Todd Palin can't even win a war reality show!
"The winner of the inaugural season of “Stars Earn Stripes” were Eve Torres and Green Beret Grady Powell"
Must be the Sarah Palin curse?
Gryphen: I'd like to see if someone can please take a picture or a video of the official chair in the governor of Alaska's office when it is empty and then post it. The feedback would be instant and could go viral. Just think of the useful and humorous snark you loyal readers could come up with.
ReplyDeleteI want a bumper sticker: Marathon in under 3 hours - Ryan, You didn't run that.
ReplyDeleteCan you believe that some commentators are holding up Palin's 4 hour marathon run in 2005 as proof that she's not a liar? Oy Veh.
i have been wondering about the media holding sarah up as a 41 year old, just had a baby governor who, without practising, finished so fast, given the photo analysis at the time. i guess the media still needs us to idolize her.
DeleteLOL Todd Palin the pussy purse carrier from Wasilla lost on SES to a female model?
ReplyDeleteMust of been the mom jeans Todd was wearing that caused Todd to lose..
Todd Palin is a sorry excuse for a pimp, sorry excuse for a man, sorry excuse for an Alaskan.... got his ass handed to him by a female model on Stars Earn Stripes.
ReplyDeleteThat's twice Todd received a beat down from a woman.

i agree
DeleteHey S'aint Sarah,
ReplyDeleteYeah, remember the Alaska legislatures wearing buttons that said WHERE IS SARAH?
Sarah was so absent from her job as gov and hardly did any work but instead she held press conferences. Thank goodness Scare-yah quit half way through.
That's actually pretty damn hilarious! Especially considering that this is coming from someone who ducked out of her own responsibilities and left the seat empty in exchange for cash and fame :)
ReplyDeleteExactly. And a year before she quit altogether, members of the state legislature were wearing "Where's Sarah?" buttons because she couldn't be bothered with going to the capital city, Juneau, during the legislative session.
DeleteNot sure why, but it reminds me of an electric chair!
ReplyDeleteSkank!
ReplyDeleteGreta Van Susteren
ReplyDeleteTV news personality Greta Van Susteren is a Scientologist.
Wonder how Dipshit reconciles that.
Scientologists...Mormons...be afraid, people. Be very afraid. If you think scientology is scary..look into Mormonism. Frightening. That this country could actually elect someone who follows Mormonism, which is nothing but a cult, is absolutely terrifying.
DeleteAnyone still have a "where's Sarah?" button? Tweet that sitting on an empty desk chair.
ReplyDeleteDave

Gryphen, I laughed my ass off with the dingbat from wasilla's photo. Of course, she needs a "prop" to make her point. What part of "Empty" does she not get?????? We need a new word for stupid!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteI think we should start a new trend of our own, post pictures of chairs with dog kennels strapped on top.
Poor Sarah, she means well, but always falls short. She's doing a great job keeping the stupidest convention ever going!
bless her heart!
Is that a potty chair to go with scarah's potty brain? HAHA
