Tune in tonight for two episodes of “Amazing America” on Sportsman Channel. At 8:00pm, Benny Spies meets pirate hunter Barry Clifford who found millions and millions in pirate booty, in only 16 feet of water! Mark visits the most amazing taxidermy you’ve ever seen! Then at 8:30pm, Benny gets the 007 experience in some amazing armored vehicles at the Texas Armoring Corporation. And some like it hot, but not Jerry – watch as he takes on the challenges at the Brayton Fire Academy. The unique people you'll meet tonight will inspire you with their energy and innovation. Thank God we have the freedom in America – like nowhere else on earth – to pursue our dreams!
Here I speak Palinese so let me translate this for you:
"Ya'll tune in tonight while we try to use up two episodes at a time before they cancel us. On this evening's program we will visit my new hero, a man who just found money laying around the seabed and did not have to work for a dime of it. Mark visits my wig maker. Benny gets to see more technology he can't understand, and Jerry learns that fire is hot. And you might just see me standing in front of a green screen acting like I am doing something adventurous, but we all know I'm not."
"Just remember these things can only happen in America cause we gots freedom, and nobody else on the planet does."
And now we know what would have happened if Jackass had got Hee Haw drunk on moonshine, knocked it up, and produced a spin off series.
Jesus Christ God Almighty, I hope her receipts (both small and large) are about exhausted. Jesus Christ God Almighty, who is that stupid? I know I’m being blasphemous and I don’t care. She needs to be run off the road.

Delete"pirate booty"????
Deleteporn girls or what? Hasn't that dumb bitch heard of a "booty" call? I'm sure Tawd has launched a few for big time donors and mil accounts....
Yawn. What a flippin' snooze fest...
I had to chuckle at your comment, Darlene. I was putting groceries away and my neighbor and her six year old granddaughter stopped in. I took out a sack of Baby Bell Cheese, and we hear Zoe say "Look, Grandma, she has baby cheeses for Easter!"
DeleteSomething the bitch will be learning soon, it's not the long fall that kills you, it's the sudden stop at the end.
DeleteAnita, one Christmas we decided to give all family members three small Wisconsin cheeses (shaped like a Christmas tree, a heart, and the state of Wisconsin) nestled in green "grass" in a shallow red basket. By the time we got to the family gathering, we were calling them "baby cheeses in the manger" which did not go over well with my evangelical siblings!
DeleteCan't wait for that stop 6:34. I'm sure it'll happen in her lifetime too...I see it as the moment Gryphen will stop reporting on her prison antics. She'll cry for his attention then.
DeleteAround 4 children, "Cheesey Rice" was frequently said by my mom. My siblings and I were quite a handful.
DeleteOh boy, a Palin two fer!!! FU Sarah!
ReplyDeleteYup, when her short-lived Alaskan reality show started showing first two-fers then marathons, you knew it was the death knell.
DeleteI don't think she gives a shit if that lame show is a success or not. She only knows the up front cash she signed for, such a bitch.
Delete6:30. I don't know, I think she cares about her popularity a lot. She would LOVE to have a prime time show that everyone was talking about. She is dying to have Sarah Palin crap for sale all over the net like DD. Her ego is right up there with her hunger for more $.
DeleteA Palin Two Fer? Are both Brisket and Wallow knocked up at the same time?
DeleteHope she got a Two Fer discount on those ridiculous chest cannons. Looks like she traded up the DDD padded Belmont bra for special order Fs. Each of those suckers is as big as her head-- what, has she not only discovered the secret to staying slim while pregnant but also how to lose weight everywhere BUT her titties? I'm not against a woman giving herself a little pick-me-up for confidence, but for the love of god, at least go for something within the realm of realism.
Delete"Pirate booty"?
ReplyDeleteHar matey, shiver me timbers, I've never heard it called THAT before. (And all three of my sons swaggered through many years of pirate-imitations.)
It's either called "treasure" or "swag," $arah, you ignorant hag! Keelhaul her!
Hey Sarah, bite me crank, matey!
DeletePirate booty does NOT mean what Screechy thinks it means. In fact, it wasn't just pirates, but many seaman were reported to have been tempted to engage in the common practice of shipboard romance during long semen emissions over the bounding main.
Delete------------------------
oops.... sorry. typo. That should read 'seaman missions' and not 'semen emissions'. Repeating: that should read 'seaman missions' and not 'semen emissions'.
crosseyed skank had a brain synapse when she stumbled across "pirate booty" in the chip aisle at costco, whilst huntin' of course, to provide for her family, donchaknow -
Deleteit's some kind'a cheesy bagged popcorn -
Only the low IQ c4p folks fall for the hate mongering idiot all dressed up in camo like she is some type of Annie Oakley. She is nothing more than a dimwitted whore for money and attention.
ReplyDeleteOh Lordy, Hubby is watching and all I can hear is her screeching!
ReplyDeleteEar Plugs and booze help! You have my empathy!!!
DeleteEach week, the Sportsman Channel has been airing two of Sarah's programs, back to back. She does not have enough material to fill a complete hour. Her audience has a much shorter attention span, so three field hosts interview three different Amazing Americans, with narration by Sarah added after the filming and editing. Sarah does not interact with any of the Amazing Americans. While she claims that we are the only nation on earth where people have the freedom to live their dreams, there are firefighters and taxidermists in other countries, too, living their dreams.
ReplyDeleteSo far, for the past couple of weeks, Sarah's programs have failed to make the top 100 watched cable shows for that Thursday night. Sponge Bob and Dora the Explorer have more viewers. So do Jon Stewart, Stephen Colbert, and reruns of both Seinfeld and Friends.
Spoonge Boobs Square Jaw fails again.
DeleteShe got one thing right, other countries would not have kept her on the national stage as long as the U.S. has. Her dream was to make lots of $$$ with little work, and she made it! Hopefully this comes to a screeching (pun intended) halt SOON. A 50 year old grandma many times over needs to GROW UP before her grandkids do. Also, too, one boob is lower than the other.
Delete7:23 PM, haha, best comment!
DeleteBenny gets the 007 experience in some amazing armored vehicles at the Texas Armoring Corporation.
ReplyDeleteThank God we have the freedom in America – like nowhere else on earth – to pursue our dreams!
You know that 007, Jame Bond, was written by a British Naval officer who was part of Naval Intelligence. The movies always feature a guy speaking with a British accent. So, it looks as if at least one guy in England was also able to have the freedom to live his dreams. Actually, there are many people in many countries who have the freedom to live their dreams. America has no special license on dreams, shooting people, fishing, hunting, taxidermy, fire fighting, or anything else. I'd like to say that we are exceptional in allowing a completely unqualified twit to run for Vice President, but we've done that in the past, too. (Dan Quayle, and somehow, he managed to get elected and stay in office for 4 years). We are not exceptional in having the only wackos in public office. (Mayor Ford in Toronto). But Sarah is really pushing the limits of international diplomacy by insulting Putin and claiming that we are the only country that has the freedom for people to live their dreams. If that was really true, why didn't Sarah get elected VP? Why did she quit her dream job as governor?
If she thinks America is so exceptional and the only country where people have the freedom to live their dreams, why did she and Todd belong to the Alaska Independence Party? Why did they want to leave all their American dreams behind?
DeleteIf she thinks America is so exceptional, why didn't the Texas Armoring Corporation outfit the troops in Iraq and Afghanistan with Mine-Resistant Ambush Protected vehicles? Evidently they weren't one of the 9 companies who submitted designs...
DeleteA double OT 7 - (007) is also a high-powered hunting rifle. It was Jethro who wanted to be a double-knot 7 spy!
DeleteYou call someone who speaks three languages Tri-Lingual. You call someone who speaks two languages BI-Lingual. What do you call someone who speaks one language? AMERICAN. American exceptionalism viewed through foreign humor.
DeleteYou really have to possess a low IQ to watch Amazing Inbreds with Sarah Palin..
ReplyDeleteLimited vocabulary bitch, isn't she?
ReplyDeleteBut at least the folks on Hee Haw had talent!
ReplyDelete"Where, oh where, are you tonight? Why did you leave me here all alone? I searched the world over and I thought I found true love...you met another and PFFHHHT you were gone!"
(Sorry...had to do it...)
Remember "there's a hole in the bucket, dear Liza, dear Liza..."
Delete(sorry, too, also)
I can't believe someone else remembers that song!!!!!
DeleteAlso, too "Thank God and Greyhound, you're gone" by the great Roy Clark. Put $carah on a greyhound bus instead of a plane next trip.
DeleteSarah Palin's career is evidence of American exceptionalism--exceptional ignorance and gullibility.
ReplyDeleteYou can fool some of the people all of the time, and you can fool all of the people some of the time, but....
DeleteAnd everything except intelligence and wisdom.
DeleteAll that, thanks to corporations' destruction of American education.
DeleteMy brain is unable to find a connection between Palin in camouflage attire, freedom and presenting people who wanted to find lost Pirate treasures, participate with training for fires or an interest in how cars are armored.
ReplyDeleteAre there really people alive who would believe the USA is exceptional because no where else can or do people pursue dreams?
She impresses me as condescending, a liar and cunning like a fox not always hunting and fishing strolling in camouflage.
Are there really people alive who would believe the USA is exceptional because no where else can or do people pursue dreams?
Delete-----------------------------
Imagine all that silly art and culture in other countries. Can't hold a candle to stuffing dead animals.
She looks like a dollar store exploded
DeleteThe camo is supposed to appeal to the people who watch the Sportsman Channel, namely people who like hunting, fishing, looking for pirate treasure, stuffing animals. If they were all that active in following those dreams, they wouldn't be watching others on TV. They would be doing it. The stuff that is advertised appeals to the camo wearing, gun shooting folks. And, Sarah is pretending to be one of them.
DeleteAs for the truth of Sarah hunting, watch "Sarah Palin's Alaska" to see how many times she missed the caribou. Her father had to load her gun for her. She didn't carry it correctly. But, she was wearing camo. When Sarah went to Moose Camp with Todd, Chuck Sr. and some other guy, she stayed back at camp to pick blueberries and she complained of being cold, in fact, freezing. Yeah, Sarah wears the camo but it's as fake as the rest of her.
Again, it is so obvious Palin has never traveled for pleasure or curiosity. Anyone who has traveled would be an idiot to speak about other people and cultures this way.
DeleteYou know what would really AMAZE me? If Sarah Palin went out in the woods in her camouflage outfit, maybe sat in a hunting blind, and just stayed there without talking for a few hours.
Delete@6:38 You have raised an important issue-- both Sarah Palin and George W. Bush were labelled "incurious." They had not traveled. They didn't know about people of different cultures. They hadn't read about people throughout history, what made a painting famous, why people want to listen to opera, how to speak correctly. They both sounded dumb and it seemed to reflect their level of interest in learning. GWB went to Ivy League schools, but not much of it rubbed off on him. Sarah claims to have a degree in journalism, but you would never know it from the way that she speaks and writes.
DeleteWe want our leaders to be able to make their decisions based on experience, education and the ability to weigh all of the arguments and information about the problem. GWB spent 15 minutes maximum thinking about anything. He ruled from his gut. Sarah is so reactive that she is still reliving that ridiculous comment about Alaska being close enough to Russia to give her foreign policy experience. We can add our friends, the conservative republicans and the religious right for wanting to dumb down our education, deny climate change, deny evolution, in fact, it is in their interest to have people stupid enough so that they don't question what their leaders are doing.
Palin appeals to people who are as interested in learning as she is. The bar is set very low for her.
And she slithers under it like the snake she is.
Delete"incurious" must be gop speak for DUMB. Little Johnny McCain described W as "dumb as a stump". It would be interesting to hear what his true feelings about $creech are, she makes HIM look stupid.
DeleteEven #41 acknowledges that Jebby is the smart one.
DeleteI'm still confused how any of the stuff she shows makes America exceptional. When there's a fire do people in other countries just run around like chickens with their heads cut off? Why not go to Somalia and film what REAL pirate life is like, sweetie? You can use that massive load of foreign policy experience you have and maybe end piracy altogether.
DeleteNothing says exceptional like "I spend my weekend looking for buried treasure instead of cultivating my own." Nothing says exceptional like unrealistically expensive hobbies only made possibly by a bloated and rampant credit industry. Nothing says exceptionalism like "Sarah Palin hosts our show... Sarah Palin. You know, she's that idiot who single-handedly doomed her entire political party."
"Just remember these things can only happen in America cause we gots freedom, and nobody else on the planet does."
ReplyDelete----------------------------
You forgot "because we is exceptional!!"
Indeed, everything except the facts.
DeleteI bet the insufferable witch was called "exceptional" all the time. she's "special" too.
DeleteOne wonders if the Wasilla hillbillies noticed the announcement that Chelsea Clinton is expecting her first child, 4 years after marrying the love of her life, and 11 years after completing an MPhil in International Relations at Oxford. The daughter of a man whose own father died before he was born and who was raised by an abusive, alcoholic step-father, but who had the intellect and strength of character to rise above the tumultuous beginnings. Take a good look, Sarah: this is what character and class looks like. And you ain't got it.
ReplyDelete--mathgeek
So true! She is a classless dolt.
Delete'em are just eeleets. rill 'murcans make 'em babies 'fore we gets hitched 'cause then we gets reality shows 'bout being 16 and pregnant.
DeleteThe Sportsman channel site promotes the show that people may be surprised at what other people do.
ReplyDeleteI am thinking there is a need for programs that show what people in other countries do.
That show is aimed at a very low level viewing audience. The underlying message of the Sportsman Channel is AMERICA. (I know, it should be the United States, but that's too long for most of them to pronounce.) They need to see things that they are comfortable with, like a guy who stuffs animals. They get that. They like shooting things. What do you do with all that stuff afterwards? (Well, Chuck Heath piles it in his front yard).
DeleteYes, it would be smart to show how other people live, both in the US and in other countries. I can hear the groans and reactions now to programs about "those people." They could also show remarkable people in this country. Dave Letterman's show is a rerun and one of his guests was the kid who was accepted to all of the Ivy League colleges (quite an accomplishment). How do you think that kid would go over on the Sportsman Channel? Can he spell "buckshot?" "Can he hit a rabbit with an arrow?"
The Palin Curse in action. She better stay away from MY ben and jerry. The best ice cream ever! Everything's "amazing" to Sarah, Park her in front of a washing machine and she'll find a way to explain it with freedom.
ReplyDeleteCongrats on the Palinese Translation! Next episode she'll explain why it's on two hours later and why the camera men kept the lens caps on and the lights out and "Land of the lead paint chip eaters" reruns are on.
It's really a dumb show when you have to respond to the guy with a "yahoo" and "golly!" And, that's not Sarah, that's the field host who yucks it up. Sarah just reads the script. Well, that is amazing. I didn't know that she could read.
ReplyDeleteSeems some at C4P are finally seeing that Palin is not what they she claims to be:

Lemming Alert! Lemming Alert!
I noticed alot of "Lemmings here the last several hours talking like "Tough Guy's" about getting involved Militarily in the Ukraine. Casting aside the strength and difficulty of Trying to take on the Russian Military in it's home territory. You "tough guy's" better pull out a history book and do a little research on every other adversary of Russia and i mean EVERY SINGLE Adversary of Russia, who have thought they would be the ones to finally crack the nut of invading Russia and succeeding in defeating it...All to their Dismay, Chagrin and ultimately Horror, after Millions of deaths.
Someone please tell me, on what basis, on what alternate universe and for what reason, should we be going to War over the Ukraine? Please tell me? Why because Governor Palin, who i generally support but i disagree STRONGLY with on this, issues a childish tweet, calling Putin a "Silly Man"?..Is that the mature basis for why people are all of a sudden so hot to go to War in the Ukraine, that would in all probability spin out of control into a Worldwide Nuclear War? Putin is not the wrong one on this. Putin would no longer allow NATO troops right against Russian borders, than we would allow Russian Troops in Mexico or Canada or Nuclear weapons in Cuba.
Putin knows that they will Try to use the Ukraine as a launching off point to attack him. You are forcing Russia against a "Wall" with no breathing room. they are going to strike back with EVERYTHING at their disposal if necessary!
Another thing and maybe this is the most important. Obama and the dems and repubs are beyond desperate for a change the subject War because everything is starting to fall apart for them back home. Their public approval ratings are in the tank and we are very close, to start to take back our Republic again and some Lemmings here want to throw him a 'Lifeline" by giving him a "Change the Subject"War! Obama, as i have also mentioned MANY times, needs a War overseas in order to have "Ready made" enemies he can blame on, we he launches "False Flag" attacks back here against his own Country but blaming them on Russia, so he can Try and get the American peoples cooperation when he declares Martial Law for good! Not too mention, this war would most likely go nuclear within a week.
So please everyone, please think about all of this before you get so hot and bothered to go to War against Russia!

I agree with you. There was no useful purpose in Sarah calling Putin "A silly little man". Some here don't like any criticism of Sarah and I don't like doing so. Sarah does a 1,000 things right and she is entitled to goof rarely when others do so frequently. It was frustrating not to be able to respond to the negative comments on Breitbart.
"childish tweet" woo! Mark's gonna get it now!
DeleteContrarily, President Obama is not seeking a "Change the Subject" War. He is pursuing diplomatic sanctions while many repubs are seeking military intervention. And yes, SP is an idiot for voicing ignorant international opinions. it is shocking that folks listen to her.
DeleteSarah is a stupid and silly little girl: Always has been, always will be.
DeleteColin Mark: You said, "Sarah does a 1,000 things right and she is entitled to goof rarely when others do so frequently"
DeleteHonest to holy god how can you think and say just this about the idiot of woman. You must be a VERY noncritical thinking person to accept the shit she spews every time she opens her pie hole. She's a fraud. she's intellectually challenged, she's lacking morals, she's a dishonest, selfish,woman with an inflated vision of her self. The successes (lack of) of her children speak volumes about Sarah and Toad's parenting, values, inspiration, guidance, and dreams they offered to them.
They expected nothing from the children. Whatever floats your boat Bristle, go for it. She is lacking in so many areas that to suggest she's ready for prime time, is a screamingly laughable joke.
Don't insult stupid and silly little girls : they have more worth and morals in their pinkie than this harpy.
DeleteNo thanks---lanced some boils tonight. It was more pleasing.
ReplyDeleteIndeed, the pain would be a welcome distraction.
DeleteYou might want to save some for next week.
DeleteI don't believe that Simple Sarah understands that the US is a country in NORTH America and that America includes NORTH and SOUTH America. North America includes Canada, Mexico, the Caymen Islands, the Caribbean region. It is NOT just the US. She has to stop proclaiming things like "Thank God we have the freedom in America – like nowhere else on earth – to pursue our dreams!" because she's just plain wrong. The US has more people incarcerated than all the rest of the world combined....that's not freedom.
ReplyDeleteWell said!
DeleteI always notice this error too. The America reference is so self-centered. Imagine explaining to a person in Chile that you live in “America”! Sarah, take a look at your passport, you might be surprised to learn you are a United States citizen.
DeleteI am very confused by the continual cheerleading of “America” and our Founding Fathers would be too. It sounds like lame nationalistic jingoism.

ReplyDeleteBill and Hillary Clinton will soon be Grandparents!
Yes , married Chelea( yep, democrats marry instead of gittin' one of them thar engagement fetus' that the Palins are so fond of) and her loving husband will soon be proud parents of one of the future presidents of the USA!
Chelsea also graduated from high school, completed her undergrad study at Stanford University-- completed her Masters at Oxford University-- and is now working on her PhD. Sarah's vibrant life has influenced her children to....... do hair school. and before you jump my ass about "ermagerd, i'm a hair stylist and you can kiss my ass"-- are your parents fucking millionaires? These fuckwads can afford to go to college, they just don't have the willpower, the motivation, the time-management skills, or the intelligence.
Deleteaww, they dressed her in a nice fitted spankin' new camo outfit! Freshly pressed, never worn....did I mention "fitted"? Did they cut the tags off? Nah, they're tucked into the neck at the back so they can return them to Cabellas.
ReplyDeleteIN all fairness I think that is "no scent" clothing, maybe it knocks down Sarah's greasy and rotten fish smell.
DeleteI am appalled that those cheap bastards didn't spring for camouflage stiletto heels. However will she pull off the "i'm a mama grizzly hunter/fisher/gather of wilderness delights" act without her stilettos???
DeleteTwo chances, you say, Gryphen?
ReplyDeleteDon't take this the wrong way, bro, but I'd rather lever my own eyeballs out of their sockets with a rusty grapefruit spoon, feed the bloody orbs to a cage full of hungry ferrets, fill the empty spaces with hot gasoline and set them on fire than to avail myself of one viewing of that miserable harpy, let alone two.
Of course, it also depends what else is on, but....
Why not cut the TV and go see what's outside ? Or take a book ? Or take a bath with a book ?
DeleteOr a selfie with a fish?
DeleteOr you could watch Vikings. I did.

ReplyDeletePalin is a truly disgusting narcissist. That picture sums up her true character 100% accurately.

What a hideously ugly and stupid woman
I'm impressed. They got her to not only put down her two crackberries, but also take off all her disgusting jewelry.

DeleteDon't forget that Sarah said that the Alaska National Guard was there to protect against Russia and she was the head of it as quitter governor. Wouldn't that have been fun?

Do you mean that there aren't any firefighters or taxidermists in Canada? In Europe? Anywhere but the USA?
DeleteJust remember these things can only happen in America cause we gots freedom, and nobody else on the planet does." is the most ignorant rant of hers I have seen yet--an opinion from a proud Canadian who is free to vote without being intimidated,who can choose their own doctor, who does not have to proclaim their religious devotion every time they speak, who can go to church without having to sit beside someone who is packing heat---I could go on an one. If she were not so stupid I would be very offended by her rant but I was taught to feel sorry for people who are not very smart and not pick on them so I will refrain!

ReplyDeleteXcellent point.
DeleteOk. I stopped laughing long enough to write this comment applauding you.
DeleteYou go, Glenn Coco. LOL
Feeling pretty free here in Scotland. Free to go to the doctor when I need to. Free to send my daughter to an amazing school. Free to send my daughter to an amazing university when the time comes without breaking the bank. Free to vote. Free to drive, to work, to play, to hike & bike or decide to do nothing much at all if that's what I want to do.
ReplyDeleteMost importantly, though, I am free to let my daughter run around outside for hours & hours & hours, playing in the nearby forest, looking at the little lambs in the farmer's field, picking flowers -- all of that & so much more, without worrying a bit about her. She has an idyllic life here that has not been the norm in the US since long before I was born (in the late 60s) if it ever was.
My oldest is in university in the US, and glad to graduate this year because next year students will be allowed to carry guns on campus -- thanks to the fab Republican-dominated state legislature.
BibleSpice is a moron, plain & simple, and every time she opines about something there is a 99.99% chance that she is wrong.
For all the disingenuous 'freedom' talk Sarah does, she refuses to talk about the increased military veteran suicides there are, limb-less veterans, unemployed veterans and all Americans that don't all have the resources she has to abound in every freedom she, Sarah, enjoys. Freedoms for some come at a price for others.
ReplyDeleteNot every working-class citizen enjoys the freedoms of putting forth a massive financial effort to look for pirate treasure. Many are worried they'll get sick and have to sell their home to pay for medical care. Sarah's is not the kind of freedom that many can brag about.
She has the freedom to read from a script in front of a screen and get paid tens of thousands of dollars for it. Not everyone has that freedom.
Yeah, it's too bad camouflage fanatics including Granny Grifter weren't/aren't required to spend a couple of years overseas in the military protecting our imperialistic incursions as a price of their addiction to camouflage, and freedumb.
DeleteInstead they're snug in their survivalist bunkers, coming out only to shoot millions of rounds at megashooting ranges or spraying public lands with lead, sometimes even out of season because poaching is freedumb too.
Boy - go to the various blogs concerning Sarah Palin and/or her family members and there is very little that comes across as positive! She (Toad, Bristol and Will are proven idiots and America (and Alaska) are wise to them!
