Sarah Palin takes to Facebook to flaunt her father's similarity to Vladimir Putin.

Yeah I have no idea why Palin thought it was a good idea to draw comparisons between her father and the man who tried to undermine our democracy, but then again I have never understood why this crazy woman does anything.

But in this case it is especially bizarre since there is actually very little resemblance between Heath Sr. and Putin at all.

The best I can come up with to explain this post is that Palin was wandering around her house having some kind of withdrawals since her LAST attempt to attract a little limelight only lasted about a day, and this was the best she could come up with.  

Sarah Palin is now like a child with behavioral problems who would literally shit herself just to get a rise out of the adults.

Well at least they know it.

Dad & other family members brought friends to hear Ann Coulter in Anchorage tonight - their shirts say it.

I am not sure I was even aware that Ann Coulter was coming up here to spew her venom onto the people of Alaska. Though to be fair I might have known and simply blocked it in order to sleep through the night without fear of waking up screaming into the darkness.

And of course there is not enough alcohol in the state to have convinced me to attend in person.

I have paid my dues in the past by attending Joe Miller rallies and Sarah Palin speeches, so I have no intention of subjecting my now fragile mental health to the likes of Ann "I have an Adam's Apple" Coulter.

It does not appear that Palin herself attended either, but that could be because Anchorage has a roadblock to keep her out since her family mauled some of our citizens a few years back.

Oh well, once the exorcists have finished driving the Coulter demons out of the Egan Center things should quickly return to normal around here.

Or what passes for normal here in Alaska.

Sarah Palin is worrying this Planned Parenthood "controversy" like a dog with a bone.

Actual photo that Palin used to illustrate this post. I kid you not.

Courtesy of Bree Hodge's Facebook page:

"Planned Parenthood" equals quality health care? Nothing could be further from the truth. SHUT IT DOWN. Presidential candidates: join me in calling for Planned Parenthood to be SHUT DOWN. This is a sham business falsely advertising as a "provider of quality health care for our patients." How can anyone sit back and watch our tax dollars fund this? There are countless distributors of birth control and health care advice out there; PP's fake premise of doing so and caring for any aspect of health is offensive and beyond unethical. Kirsten Powers - thank you for speaking up because this atrocity is not a partisan or gender issue; it's obviously a moral one. The acceptance of this speaks to the character of a nation.

Actually I think the acceptance of Planned Parenthood speaks to the intelligence of the nation.  And those getting themselves all worked up over the video tape hoaxes...well quite the opposite.

(For those wondering about that Kirsten Powers shut out that is because Palin also included a link to a USA Today opinion piece by the Fox News contributor.)

As for Planned Parenthood's claim of providing birth control and health care advice as being fake, well Palin does not know what in the hell she is talking about. (I know, surprising right?)

Courtesy of Planned Parenthood at a glance: 

Planned Parenthood health centers focus on prevention: 80 percent of our clients receive services to prevent unintended pregnancy. 

Planned Parenthood services help prevent approximately 516,000 unintended pregnancies each year. 

Planned Parenthood provides nearly 400,000 Pap tests and nearly 500,000 breast exams each year, critical services in detecting cancer. 

Planned Parenthood provides nearly 4.5 million tests and treatments for sexually transmitted infections, including 700,00 HIV tests. 

Three percent of all Planned Parenthood health services are abortion services. 

Planned Parenthood affiliates provide educational programs and outreach to 1.5 million young people and adults each year. 

Planned Parenthood has eight million activists, supporters, and donors working for women's health and safety and our fundamental reproductive rights. 

I know it must be confusing for Palin to be confronted with the fact that an agency or individual actually does what they claim to do, but Planned Parenthood is definitely in that category. 

And as one can see from this list abortion only counts for three percent of the health care services provided by Planned Parenthood, yet 100% of their difficulties.

It does not have to be pointed out to any of you that Palin is a rollicking hypocrite on this subject as we all know about her "Wite-Out" pregnancies, not to mention her fake one.

However she is still a voice that a certain under educated segment of society takes seriously on this subject and for that reason she needs to be called out and confronted before she helps to destroy yet another necessary institute of public service.

Sarah Palin morphs from politician and partisan attack dog, to movie and book critic?

So yesterday Palin posted her personal review of a movie she watched on a plane, and pimped a book from Chris Kyle's widow.

Courtesy of Facebook: 

A COACH WITH INFLUENTIAL INTEGRITY  

If you need some spirit-lifting all-American true story telling, watch the great new movie “McFarland, USA”! Granted, my favorite movies are sports related (it's all about the underdog, the unconventional, the character revealed in overcomers), and I found this one on an Alaskan redeye flight to be one of the best. Rarely do I want to sit long enough to watch a movie (though I could recline for days with a good book – in the sun, toes in the sand – that'd be my heaven on earth!), but I’m thankful Disney made this one. 

Perhaps this cross-country themed film resonated because sweat is my sanity. (Well then lady you are not sweating nearly enough.) I've been a (slow, dogged) distance runner for more miles than my enduring knees owe me. I'm not good, but I know the guts it takes to run. (No folks it's not your imagination, Palin is definitely leaving little, not so subtle, hints that she might run for office in order to excite the five people who still want her to do so.) Additionally, attribute my enthusiasm here to personal connectivity to the inspiring film because every day I get to witness the positive influence my dad, Coach Heath, has had on his students and athletes. Without a doubt the life lessons Dad taught on the court, the field, and in the classroom changed lives for the better. Filmmakers and the actor Kevin Costner grandly captured the same in McFarland's Coach White. White and his teams' stories exemplify what coaching with integrity is all about. 

You don't have to be a sweat-obsessed sports nut to love this movie. It's all good with virtuous tenacity woven through a plot that's applicable to all our lives. Loved it! Makes me want to run. 

- Sarah Palin

But of course not for office.

This is Palin so she cannot pass up an opportunity to interject the fact that she was a runner, and to show a picture of her dad as a coach.

I have no idea if this movie is any good, though it does have a 79% over at Rotten Tomatoes, however I know that Palin likes this movie mostly because it gives her yet another opportunity to polish up the old family mythology.

And speaking of mythology she also does book reviews:

For a very good summer read, please get Taya Kyle’s wonderful book “American Wife.” Her personal story connects deeply with the experiences of many military families. It puts things in perspective and reminds us of the enormous sacrifices made for our freedom. The book powerfully combines tragedy that touched a nation with an ongoing personal, hope-filled outcome based on Taya's faith. And, bluntly, the beautiful widow of American Sniper Chris Kyle also awakens us to the lessons in the adage "Don't sweat the small stuff." Great job, Taya; we love you!

This one is a no brainer, and I mean that in every sense of the word. 

Palin has been worshiping at the feet of Chris Kyle ever since he worked on that "Stars Earn Stripes" show with Todd.

We remember Todd doing that show right?

Besides the book not only has all kinds of rooting tooting military anecdotes in it, but also contains references to religion and faith, which Palin needs to keep associating with in order to convince the fundamentalists that she is one of them.

So to be clear Sarah Palin will support any movie or book that allows her to polish her image as a former athlete or help to convince people that even though her daughter moves in with a man before marriage, her family cusses like a boatload of sailors on leave and picks fights at birthday parties, and she dresses like a aged hooker at a Vegas convention, she is STILL a good Christian woman despite all evidence to the contrary.

Sarah Palin uses debunked story about middle school boy being denied right to read his Bible in order to complain about Atheists, being sued, and of course to pimp her book.

Palin starts off telling the story of poor Loyal Grandstaff, a middle school student who complained that while he was quietly reading his book of fables, you know the Bible, a teacher told him he was not allowed to do that.

Well of course this caused the Right Wing to marshal their forces and start writing blog posts and sending nasty tweets and e-mails at the school.

Only thing is, that is not really what happened: 

A public school principal in Missouri pushed back against a middle school student’s claim that a teacher banned him from reading the Bible in school, claiming that the incident did not unfold as was alleged and that students are more than welcome to read their Bibles in school. 

Lance Tobin, principal of Bueker Middle School in Marshall, Missouri, told TheBlaze on Friday that claims made by Loyal Grandstaff, a 7th grader at the school, had not been substantiated when a local outlet published them and that the situation has since been resolved.

Of course Palin does not seem to care that this has been debunked, after all it's not like Brian Williams was the one caught in a lie of anything, and she continues to blow it out of proportion, before suddenly turning it around and making it all about her.

"Normal people don't want to go through the hassle of litigation. I've been through it how many times now? People suing me over stupid things? It's not fun. It's expensive. It's ah such a waste of resources. But normal people then understanding that litigation is a hassle, don't like going through it."

"So angry Atheists know that, so they use their inflamed rhetoric to coerce teachers, and principals, their forcing them, to take away the religious freedom of their students."

Yeah, didn't happen and doesn't happen.

Reading your Bible, Koran, the Vedas, at school is not a problem. And the only time it would be is if the teacher, or another authority figure were to try to teach lessons from any of those religious texts on school grounds.

And that did not happen in this case. So no, there are no "angry" Atheists "coercing" teachers and principals by threatening a lawsuit. 

Palin goes on to say that the principal stated that the "teacher acted against school policy" though if you read the link up above you will see that what the principal actually said was, “There is no teacher involved whatsoever.”

But in Palin's eyes the truth can never stand in the way of a good anecdote, and besides she has a reason for going after this like a dog with a bone.

"In my book 'Good Tidings and Great Joy' I talk about  how our religious freedom is being eroded by angry Atheists with attorneys."

So you see this was just another opportunity for Palin to once again plug a book that her ghostwriter wrote a freaking year ago. And plug it by the way to a group of subscribers that have undoubtedly already purchased at least one of the books already.

Good marketing that.

But hey I guess we cannot blame her too much because apparently it is a family trait, as her brother is now using the Brian Williams kerfuffle to pimp HIS stupid ass book: 

After these new revelations show that Williams has a history of not only embellishing stories, but flat out lying (in detail)... I understand why he didn't want our book to get any national exposure. In 2008, Williams lied about Sarah on air, accusing her of banning library books when she was mayor of Wasilla. We pointed out lies like this in our book. No wonder he didn't want to help us out.

Yeah, THAT'S why he did not want to help promote the book. I'm sure it had nothing to do with the fact that it was full of falsehoods and revisionist history designed to refute facts uncovered about the family and to make a fast buck off of a person whose fame was rapidly dwindling.

So I guess to the Palin family it is not so much about WHAT lies are being told, but more about WHO is telling them. And of course WHO can profit by telling them.

(H/T to Wonkette.)

Chuck Heath Jr's list of "Ten Things Sarah Palin is Lacking" is laugh out loud funny.

So Chuckie has decided that his road to success lies in kissing his sister's ass even harder, has decided to post a list of what he considers tongue in cheek things Palin is lacking which attract criticism.

Just to make sure it has virtually no impact he places this list on that "Sarah Palin's Earthquake Movement" Facebook page, put together by the simplest morons on the planet who still cannot get it through their heads that Palin is NEVER running for president.

Here is the opening: 

For the past five years, I’ve watched, listened to, and read viscous (I am pretty sure he meant vicious here, but he is a Palin so I'll let it slide. Remember folks HE'S a teacher.) comments directed at my sister Sarah. These attacks are usually based on things those that want to destroy her feel she is lacking. I thought I’d help the haters out by compiling my own list. I hope this helps!

Oh look he is using middle school language and calling her critics "haters" as well. So mature.

Ten Things That Sarah Palin is Lacking: 

#1-Pedigree: Sarah was born into a low-income family with no political connections. Everything she’s achieved has been through her own hard work. (Okay this is true. After all at one point Palin was a governor of Alaska and had an actual political future. But then through hard work she became known as a half-term quitter, a reality show has been, the producer of books that don't sell, and the matriarch of a family of losers who are now famous for starting drunken brawls. So many achievements.)

#2-Soft hands: Sarah has continually worked to provide for herself and her family, whether it was as a commercial fisherman, a hunter, a waitress, etc., she’s never been afraid to get her hands dirty. 

(Well they're old and gnarled right now, and she tends to use them as flesh covered post it notes, but they look fairly soft and callous free to me. I call bullshit.)

#3-Sleep: I watched Sarah work 15-20 hours a day, seven days a week as governor. Her stamina amazes everyone close to her. (One should never confuse Red Bull induced hyperactivity and facial tics with stamina. And according to Levi she came home in the middle of the day, and I would trust his take on her work ethic over a brother desperate to hitch a ride on her coattails any day. Especially since that was also backed up by her security chief Gary Wheeler and others as well.)


#4-A golf handicap: Although she loves the game, you would never see Sarah spending countless hours on the links during a position of leadership. (Well we're at number four so it must be time to attack the President. Who, by the way, seems to be able to play golf AND not quit his job at the same time.)

#5-Shady friends: Sarah has no ties to known domestic terrorists, and no wealthy foreign friends that financed trips for her overseas. (No ties to domestic terrorists? Has he never heard of Schaeffer Cox? As for "shady friends" perhaps Chuckie is hoping that nobody has read this Salon article from October 2008.) 
 
#6-Hidden college transcripts: Her school records have always been open to the public. (Now this is simply bullshit. NOBODY has seen any of  Palin's school transcripts, including the diploma she supposedly received after finishing college. Trust me I looked.)

#7-A perfect family: Despite hardships that almost every American family faces, Sarah has kept her head up and focused on the positive, and she’s always been there to help us when we’ve needed her. (Seriously? Literally in every book written about Palin, that was not written by somebody paid to make her look good, contains reports of her incredibly poor parenting. And anybody needing further proof of that need only here the police audio of the drunken brawl. "Don't cuss Swillow.")

#8-Friends in the media, Hollywood, and rap music: The vast majority of Hollywood stars and the mainstream media have done everything in their power to destroy her. No major network newsman has ever said that he gets a tingle up his leg when he thinks of her. (Oh they used to get tingles alright. It was just a littler further north than the leg. As for friends in Hollywood didn't producer Mark Burnett help Palin land a reality show, and didn't Bristol stay in his house in Hollywood?)

#9-A lack of respect for the Constitution: Sarah has always looked at the Constitution as a brilliant blueprint for America; a document that clearly lays out a separation of powers so that no one person or group of people have absolute power. (Okay well Palin's ignorance of the Constitution is well documented. She respects it just like she respects the Bible. Which is another thing she has never read and could not possibly understand.)

#10-A doubt in our Creator: Every big decision Sarah makes has been based on prayer. (Which explains why she never misses a Sunday at church. Oh wait, that's right she never goes.)


I wonder if your lips get chapped kissing this much ass?

I can hardly wait for Chuckie's next top ten list.

My suggested title; "Ten lies I tell people about my sister so they will give me money."

Sarah Palin and the "Grift that stole Christmas."

Well I already shared with you Palin's attempts to trick people into buying that crappy Christmas book of hers again, but as it turns out that is only the beginning of her attempts to sell you sub-par products.

Palin is also pimping a Fox News holiday special with Todd Starnes, who is so freaked out about the imagined "War on Christmas" that he is apparently constantly stuffing his face with comfort food to calm himself down.

As you can see the program features a who's who from the "I have never heard of these people" list. And of course Sarah Palin, who is only a handful of years away from being added to that list.

But Palin is not finished yet.

Her Facebook page also features a promo for a Christmas song by the world's worst band Madison Rising, that is SO bad you will probably want to ask Santa for a new set of eardrums.

Madison Rising. This band never ceases to amaze. Heartstrings pull and gratefulness soars while listening to this vocal Christmas card they send to our United States Military. These are special musicians blessing us with the American spirit boldly coursing through their music. Thank you, Madison Rising, for using your talent to inspire and empower. Thank you, troops, for everything. 

- Sarah Palin

Yeah apparently the "American spirit boldly coursing through their music" takes the place of any talent.

Wait, you don't believe it could be that bad?

Okay you asked for it.

Sorry you doubted me now?

And the grifting has now spread to other family members as well.

Such as older brother Chuck, who is now just outright begging for money, so that he can take pretty pictures and put together some kind of book that will never sell.

Here is Wonkette's take: 

We’ve had a lot of fun over the years laughing until we puked about how former half-term governor Sarah Palin loves to fleece rubes. (You and your family should probably check Grandma’s bank statements before you send her to the home.) But did you know grifting is an art you can learn? It’s true! Just ask Palin’s brother, Chuck Heath Jr., who has a kickstarter up for the fine and noble purpose of buying Chuck Heath Jr. some new camera equipment! 

Yeah that about sums it up. 

Hey isn't Chuck's sister like rich or something? Why the fuck doesn't he just ask her to give him money to help him get started?

Never mind I already know the answer to that one. As Todd Palin's likes to say, "What's in it for us?"

I really have only one request for Santa this year, and it is not so much a gift I would like as merely a promise to guide his sleigh right over a certain house in Wasilla when his reindeer feel the need to relieve themselves.

Sarah Palin brings a new video out from behind the Sarah Palin Channel paywall to show off her "cooking skills" and to hawk a new book by an editor at Breitbart. But I think we know why she is REALLY making it public.

Click Lake Lucille regulation flotation devices to play video.

I am assuming this video is what passes for interesting behind the walls of Mordor the Sarah Palin Channel.  But it's really not.

It is however an opportunity to see Palin in the flesh (Well you know the flesh that you can see behind the caked on makeup, fake hair, and pontoon size fake tits.) And it also affords an opportunity to see briefly Todd, showing no obvious injury from his night of drunken brawling.

However, to be fair, there is really no way to determine exactly when this video was shot, so it could have been weeks before the Throwdown at the Hoedown.

Ostensibly this video is to showcase a book written by Breitbart editor Joe Pollack, entitled "Wacko Birds."

Not it is NOT a book about the Palin family, but it IS a book about the Tea Party using the term that John McCain used to label the movement after Rand Paul's self serving filibuster on the Senate floor.

Palin is shown in the kitchen preparing food, though actually it appears that most of the preparations has taken place off camera, and Palin is left to point at various dishes, and claim that each one contains some fish caught by a member of her family.

Palin also attempts to wax philosophical about politics with Pollack, but it turns out to be a really sad regurgitation of Palin talking points.

Here is her defense of the fact that the Tea Party has not defined leadership:

"That's that Catch-22 because people, like me, uh those proudly associated with the Tea party, it ticks me off that the media still gets away with characterizing it as a party though, because then they get to jab us that, 'Oh we have no leadership.' But that's the point."

This discussion happens while Palin is stuffing cheese into her hotdogs. Because, you know, screw you Michelle Obama.

Palin also shakes her pom poms for Breitbart

"I liked that Breitbart was so into that infiltration and influence on pop culture, because, and I tell people all the time, it's not going to be preaching within our four square walls of a church necessarily. It's certainly not preaching to the choir, uh not necessarily the political arena, because in my world, my people, my friends, my family, they're not political. They're just hard working, patriotic, commons sense Americans. And...um..and that just inherently leads them to conservative positions that they stand for. (Wait, so being a hard working American automatically makes you a supporter of conservative positions? Because I know some union members who would have a REALLY hard time with that statement.) But everybody is influenced by pop culture. If not the church, if not politics, then it's, I would say, pop culture." 

You know I think that Palin is associating thievery NOT conservative as coming from pop culture, as if it is only a fad and will have no staying power.

The Breitbart zombie and Palin then agree that President Obama was the "Facebook candidate" and that he was essentially shaped by whatever the voters wanted him to be. Just another way to undermine his presidency and suggest that he is lacking in gravitas.

The clip is a little over fourteen minutes long, but it seems like it goes on forever, and contains very little that is coherent from Palin, making the Breitbart clone seem like a Rhodes Scholar by comparison.

Which leads one to ask just WHY did this deserve to be moved from behind the pay wall to make it accessible by the public at large, and I really believe it is a passive way to tell everybody that it is business as usual in Palin-land and that the brawl had no effect on her, her family (You also see the Heaths), or her grifting ways.

However as I said up top, there is NO way to really determine when this clip was filmed so of course it has no value in putting the controversy to rest.

It also does not feature either Bristol or Track, which allows continued speculation as to how they are recovering from their participation is Wasilla Wrestlemania.

Nice try Snowdrift Snooki, but no cigar.

Sarah Palin squeezes every little bit of attention out of her schmoozing with the Duck Dynasty clan, even manages to include Franklin Graham and Fox News.

"Don't poke my fake boob with that flag Todd. It might deflate."

Courtesy of Granny Grifter's Facebook page:

Such a beautiful day in Port Alsworth, Alaska, as our family joined Rev. Franklin Graham & the Duck Commander crew to again welcome veterans and their spouses at an Operation Heal Our Patriot's retreat. This tremendous program for wounded warriors is run by Samaritan's Purse and works to help heal our returning heroes who have the same emotional and spiritual scars the rest of us have (You know after Franklin Graham skims a little from the top first.), but theirs are compounded by extreme circumstances in war zones, and they return with scars all to often overlooked. Thank you to all the dedicated OHOP volunteers committed to our returning heroes to heal marriages affected by these scars. (Not sure she is the best person be talking about "healing marriages.") Our prayers are with the couples we welcomed yesterday on a chilly end-of-summer evening that reminds us our Alaskan winter rolls in quickly and spectacularly. It was 27 degrees there this morning (She got this part right. Colder than hell this morning.), and bear viewing is great as the nearby animals fatten themselves up before hunkering down for the cold winter months. This Bristol Bay region is a most beautiful spot in the Last Frontier; it's the region where Todd was born and raised. We're blessed to have this chunk of God's country in our backyard. Glad the Duck Commander crew traveled North for these views, too! 

America, please join us in supporting and praying for all our vets and their families. If you love your freedom, thank a vet!

 - Sarah Palin

Nothing says "We're just small town living Americans like all of you" like hobnobbing with reality TV stars and having it covered by a host on a popular cable news channel.

And of course while she has this "star" power at her disposal, why not use them as a lure to get somebody to finally visit her stupid all about me vanity channel?

Seriously where is a hungry bear fattening up for winter when you need one?

Sarah Palin's somewhat belated Father's Day post.

From the IM puppet's Facebook page:  

Happy Father's Day, all you great hardworking American men who make this world a better place! The nation needs you. The nation loves you. 

- Sarah Palin

Well thank you Sarah I love my nation too. Though to be fair I was unaware they had elected you as their spokesperson.

Palin also included a picture of Todd with Trig and one of Chuck Sr. putting his hand over his heart in front of the Statue of Liberty, which sports a SarahPAC logo in the corner so the old fart can help to earn his keep.

However I chose to borrow the picture above, with all credit to Palin's Facebook page, because we have not seen Track in uniform in many, many moons.

I have to imagine that this is in response to all of the criticism she receives for calling her son a "combat veteran" when he is no longer active in the military and never saw any combat.

Clearly this is a picture that she has had for some time since Kyla Grace was born in 2011 and has surely not taken until 2014 to learn to walk.

And we know that Track was discharged in 2010 after serving only 2 years.

So I am not sure why he is wearing his uniform in that picture. (Do soldiers get extra attention on airlines these days?)

He also did not see any combat while in Iraq as indicated by the fact that he did not receive a Combat Infantry Badge which is automatic once a soldier engages in a firefight.

But nonetheless, I am sure that the low hanging fruit will eat all of this up with a spoon.

You know sometimes Sarah you can simply love your family without feeling the need to make up mythologies to cover for your embarrassment at how they turned out.

They should not all have to be combat veterans, book authors, or reality show stars in order to earn their parent's love.

I'm just saying.

Apparently the Palin paranoia is a family trait. Or is it?

This from Chuck Heath Jr's Facebook page:  

Coincidence? You decide. 

My father, who worked multiple jobs and faithfully and honestly paid his taxes for fifty years, had never heard a word from the IRS. In 2008, his daughter was tapped to run for vice president of the United States. Since that time, he has been, in his words "horribly harassed" six times by the agency. They've tried to dig up something on him but he's always operated above board. Government and politics are ugly. 

Kudos to the few that are trying to clean it up.

Seriously?

To answer the initial question at the top of the page, yes whatever "harassment" that is coming Chuck Sr's way is definitely a coincidence.

To think that the IRS in Alaska gives a crap about a doddering old man in Alaska enough to target him for any kind of harassment is ludicrous on its face.

The Facebook post does not provide any details as to what the Chucks consider to be harassment, but unless Papa Heath has been the subject of an audit six times (Which would in fact be excessive) it sounds like it has simply been a request for additional information about his tax returns.

And considering the fact that his last monetary adventure appears to be that book deal with Chuck Jr., it would make sense that the IRS may require certain kinds of information that he, as a retired person, may not have had to provide in the past.

Of course there are a number of Right Wing blogs that have taken this story and run with it, because, you know, IRS. Which fits with their current meme that the Obama administration is using the IRS to target their political enemies.

However as most of us know the entire IRS 'scandal" turned out to be a false narrative, yet those facts have never filtered out to the fringe.

In fact the use of the IRS to target political enemies was a tactic utilized by Richard Nixon, a Republican President, NOT the Democrats.

So the question to ask is whether or not this is a case of paranoia by the Chucks, or are they simply being good Right Wing soldiers and continuing to push forward a narrative that their famous sibling would put her stamp of approval on?

I know what I think.

Sarah Palin kicking it with one of the few people even crazier than she is, Rafael Cruz, Ted Cruz's father.

Courtesy of

A big Texas thanks to Rafael Cruz, Senator Ted Cruz’s father, for hosting us last night with other SarahPAC supporters. It’s inspiring to hear Rafael’s full-throated defense of American exceptionalism. As an American of Cuban descent, Rafael has witnessed first hand what it means to live without freedom, and that has made him an eloquent and motivated American patriot. God bless him and all the SarahPAC supporters we met yesterday. Together we're working to restore our exceptional nation!

Holy crap! Can you just imagine how much crazy would be packed into that room with Sarah Palin, her Palin-bots, AND Rafael Cruz? I swear it boggles the mind.

You may remember the elder Cruz as the the man who wants to send President Obama back to Kenya, who says black people are uninformed, and that his son Ted Cruz is the "Anointed one."

So clearly he is one of Palin's kind of people. Perhaps even crazier than the usual suspects even.

Speaking of crazy, you should see how crazy the Palin-bots got over this tweet from Cher:

Go to dictionary,& look up The “C"Word,....next 2 the definition...you’ll see a Pic of Sarah PALIN ! NO...WAIT ...SHES UNDER DUMB C WORD👻
— Cher (@cher) November 15, 2013

It was tweeted back on November 15, but apparently it took almost three days for the Right Wing to get sufficiently pissed off about it.

Anyhow apparently it really hurt widdle Sarah's feelings so she sicced  her big brother on her: 

Dear Cher, 

I was sorry to hear that you tweeted out such vile comments about my little sister yesterday. It's sad because Sarah has never had a harsh word to say about you. In fact, our grandmother was one of your biggest fans. 

Have a good night, 

Chuck

Oh God can you just imagine how torn up Cher is to learn that the Palin's no longer  want to be besties with her?

Personally I don't think Cher owes them anything, after all she did already write a song all about them. What more do they want?

And if that were not enough outrage for one day it is now being reported that Palin has just cancelled her sit down with Matt Lauer over the remarks by Martin Bashir.

This courtesy of Fox News:

The former Alaska governor and Fox News contributor was scheduled to sit down with Matt Lauer for a Christmas season interview. That's now toast. 

Palin has now canceled Lauer's scheduled trip to Wasilla, a source close to her tells me. It's not because Palin is upset with Lauer or the "Today" show, but as a protest against NBC for not taking action against Bashir. In fact, Palin once sat in as a "Today"co-host. 

Uh huh. Okay does anybody else think that this might just be a convenient excuse to get out of an interview that she is now dreading because her book sales have dropped off so precipitously? (Which are now down to 275 at the time of this post.)

Because I kind of do.

Yet more crazy gibberish from Sarah Palin today. This time on Fox News.

Clearly Palin is on the show to pimp her ghostwritten Breitbart op-ed which we picked apart earlier today.

I had a hard time taking in all of her rabid talking points because I was distracted by what looks like a hollowed out donkey's ass sitting on her head.

It was SO stiff that it did not move even a little bit as she raged and spit venom about "GOP elephants" and their lack of courage in "repilling" Obamacare.

She of course is all in for Ted Cruz and his hostage taking techniques, and very upset by the rest of the establishment GOP folks who seem dead set against allowing Cruz to destroy the party.

At one point, while referring to the establishment Republicans as "elephants" Palin invokes her father:

"What is surprising though is...my dad who is a science teacher and a natural history teacher...Dad if you're watching this morning. If you're out of moose camp already and you're home. You are a teacher and you never told me that elephants were cannibalistic. I wish I would have known, and then we would have a different tactic in he way that we do campaigning."

I literally have NO idea what that was supposed to mean but she seemed very pleased with herself after saying it.

When the host (Let's call her Fox News Barbie for right now.) explains to Palin that the "elephants" she is referring to include John McCain, and that they say the plan to defund Obamacare is "not rational," Palin accuses them of "waving a white flag" and giving in to the Liberals.

She also claims that there is "mischief" going on:

"The mischief, in this case, are other very big things going on in the world that Obama would like to see distracted out minds away from. Things like...oh perhaps he'd like ta lob missiles into some foreign country's civil war with no intention of having those missiles actually impact the outcome of that war?" (WTF?)

Fox News Barbie then tells Bible Thumping Barbie that she has a Twitter question for her (At which point you can see Palin swallow hard) from an audience member (Whew!)

The host then asks her about whether or not she might be in the running for Senator Begich's seat, but Palin quickly says it does not have to be her who challenges him, and then changes the subject some bullshit about coal.

However Fox News Barbie refuses to let Palin off so easily and asks her again, at which time you can see the Grizzled Mama's hackles going up and she gets a little testy, finally using her children as a deflection, saying she wants to "keep them nice and pure."

Yeah, somehow the phrase "nice and pure" and Palin children don't really go together for me. How about you guys?

She is then asked whether she would endorse any of the GOP Senate hopefuls in Alaska, and she says she would. (You can almost hear Joe Miller and Mead Treadwell screaming "Nooo!" from here.)

Another Twitter question asks if she thinks Benghazi will have any impact on Hillary's ability to run for President.

Her answer:

"If it doesn't have an impact on the 2016presidenital election if she is a candidate, then America I am very disappointed in our electorate, because anyone who would just throw away two hundred years of our military ethos and leave our men behind to be murdered, in Benghazi  in this case, no that person should never be considered as a Commander-in-Chief. "

Did this nasty bitch just accuse Hillary Clinton of purposefully allowing the men in Benghazi to be murdered?

Oh she is biting off way MORE than she could possibly chew. She better goddamn hope that Hillary ignores these remarks or the next shoe print on somebody's behind will be sporting high heels.

Personally I don't know WHY Palin bothered to show up on Fox today, as she had already filled the news cycle with stupidity from her ghostwritten op-ed and from her hastily taken down tweet. However if she were intelligent I guess she might actually have a real job in politics.

Sarah Palin's brother, Chuck Jr., lays out ten reasons why he thinks people attack his sister. And he is wrong on every count.

"I pushed my fake boobs out as hard as I can and they are still criticizing me. Somebody help me!"

Courtesy of Chuckie's Facebook page:

For the past five years, I’ve watched, listened to, and read viscous comments directed at my sister Sarah. These attacks are usually based on things those that want to destroy her feel she is lacking. I thought I’d help the haters out by compiling my own list. I hope this helps! 

Ten Things That Sarah Palin is Lacking: 

#1-Pedigree: Sarah was born into a low-income family with no political connections. Everything she’s achieved has been through her own hard work. (Wrong! The American people elected Bill Clinton, who was raised by a single mother and never had much wealth or connections growing up, twice. He made it through intelligence, his magnetic presence, and hard work. And then there is Obama, whose very existence in the White House blows this bullshit argument apart at the seems.)

#2-Soft hands: Sarah has continually worked to provide for herself and her family, whether it was as a commercial fisherman, a hunter, a waitress, etc., she’s never been afraid to get her hands dirty. (Her hands? When has anybody EVER mentioned her hands, or that of any other politician? People are looking for a leader, not someone to join Captain Quint on the Orca (#5)while looking to kill a great white shark.)

#3-Sleep: I watched Sarah work 15-20 hours a day, seven days a week as governor. Her stamina amazes everyone close to her. (Really? I interviewed about a half dozen former staff members who claimed that Palin disappeared for hours a day. Including the head of her security detail who said that she never prepared for meetings and was almost impossible to find when she was needed. Then there was Levi's contention that she often came home halfway through the day to go hide in her bedroom. But hey, I'm sure her brother knows so much more about her work habits then THOSE people, right?)

#4-A golf handicap: Although she loves the game, you would never see Sarah spending countless hours on the links during a position of leadership. (Apparently this is a thinly veiled slam at the President. And too stupid do deserve a response.)

#5-Shady friends: Sarah has no ties to known domestic terrorists, and no wealthy foreign friends that financed trips for her overseas. (Tell that Schaeffer Cox, Bud Paxson, and Mark Burnett.)

#6-Hidden college transcripts: Her school records have always been open to the public. (WTF? Well then where the hell are they! Seriously I challenge Chuck Heath Jr. to place these records online of forever be branded a lying piece of garbage just like his sister.)

 #7-A perfect family: Despite hardships that almost every American family faces, Sarah has kept her head up and focused on the positive, and she’s always been there to help us when we’ve needed her.  (Can't argue with that. Palin has been covering for the misdeeds and unexpected pregnancies of her brood for years.)

#8-Friends in the media, Hollywood, and rap music: The vast majority of Hollywood stars and the mainstream media have done everything in their power to destroy her. No major network newsman has ever said that he gets a tingle up his leg when he thinks of her. (What? That is such an insult to Ted Nugent and Sean Hannity! I am almost certain they both get a tingle somewhere in the vicinity of their leg every time they talk to Snowdrift Snooki.)

 #9-A lack of respect for the Constitution: Sarah has always looked at the Constitution as a brilliant blueprint for America; a document that clearly lays out a separation of powers so that no one person or group of people have absolute power. (Too bad she has no idea what it says.)

#10-A doubt in our Creator: Every big decision Sarah makes has been based on prayer. (Like faking a pregnancy? Or getting fake boobs? Or lying to people about her plans to run for President? Were all of those decisions based on prayer?)

I’m sure many of you could add to this list. Feel free, but try to be nice and honest.

Well he asked for it. Do you all want to add to the list?

Oh and you can forget about being nice. Just be honest.

By the way speaking of awards, the Oscars weren't the only big trophies given out yesterday. "Big" being a relative term.

Here is a picture of the Toad holding his trophy for coming in fifth place in the Iron Dog, that was found on Chuck Heath Jr's Facebook page.

Apparently the fifth place win came not only with that nifty little trophy, but also $10,000.

But before Todd had a chance to blow it all on prostitutes and Viagra, his wife stepped in and announced to the world (Or at least the morons who still follow her on Facebook) that Todd was giving the money to a charity that reinforces her Right Wing credibility.

From Palin's Facebook page:

Todd's race winnings are donated to The Chris Kyle Memorial Fund. For the kids and me, we're proud of our Iron Dogger, especially his dedication to family and freedom. 

- Sarah Palin

Damn and this is the first money Todd has earned on his own in months! Oh well, I am sure Palin made it up to him by letting him hold the balls that she ripped off of him yeas ago and keeps in that little purse she carries.

"Here Todd, touch them. Remember what it was like to be a real man? Well, now you can just hand them back and get those thoughts right out of your head. Cause your ass belongs to me!"

One of the last Palin-bots standing wants to launch survey into how Palin has impacted tourism in Alaska. Here let me help, remember how that giant meteor impacted the dinosaurs about 65 million years ago? Yeah like that.

"Anecdotal evidence suggest that when Sarah Palin is a factor in travel to Alaska, tourists spend up to three times as much as those where she's not a factor." I'm sorry is that "anecdotal evidence" just another way of saying "facts I pulled out of my ass?" And what is with the flag hanging in the background? Does this guy think that makes people more likely to believe his bullshit?

By the way some of the programs that he lists as having come AFTER Palin's crappy reality show were either already planned before hers was filmed, or had already been airing before hers was filmed. In other words she does NOT get to take credit for them.

This is from the You Tube site:

US for Palin is running a survey to determine how and to what extent former Alaska Governor Sarah Palin impacts tourism to Alaska. The survey currently has 97 responses from people who have traveled there and 93 from those who did not. Trends in the data suggest that the survey needs to focus exclusively on people who have traveled to Alaska. To be statistically valid within a /-5% margin of error, responses from 300 people who have traveled to Alaska are needed. This project, which currently has nearly $300 invested in it will need $1,500 to complete. Sponsors at any amount will be acknowledged on US for Palin and syndicate sites. Those who sponsor at $100 or more will receive the acknowledgement and a copy of Our Sarah: Made in Alaska, signed by the authors, Chuck Heath Sr. and Jr. - father and brother of Gov. Palin.

"Thanks for wasting your time on this survey, now we are going to punish you by making you read this piece of mythological moose crap."

Look I can save this idiot a lot of time by telling him that it is universally accepted here in Alaska that Palin caused a LOT of people to have a negative view of our state, and just on this blog alone I have been told by dozens of people that they changed their plans to visit due exclusively to Sarah Palin. and what she represents.

Of course his sample will be skewed because he is reaching out to the handful of people left who actually like Snowdrift Snooki, and I have to say he is being pretty confident to think there are 300 of them left who will respond to his survey, and give him $1,500 to launch is so-called "economic impact study."

By the way as of this post there have ONLY been $490.00 raised, from nine donations, in twelve days, even though he has plastered it over every pro-Palin site in existence. Which in my opinion tells you quite a lot right there.

Oh the horror! Field and Stream has the audacity to tell it's readers that Sarah Palin is NOT a hunter. Here comes the backlash.

Courtesy of Field and Stream:

Some of you took umbrage at my interpretation of Sarah Palin botching the shooting of a caribou. I felt so poorly about this that I went back and re-viewed the tape (You can see it below. It runs about 3 ½ minutes) and it made me even more depressed than I was before. 

Ms. Palin is an extremely inexperienced shooter. 

First, she allows her dad and the guide, who are both apparently nitwits, to jabber at her continually throughout the performance, make suggestions, swap rifles when it turns out that the first one has a bum scope (!), and allow her to blaze away at a moving animal. 

An experienced shooter knows that when he (she) picks up a gun, he (she) is responsible for it, and the way it works. If you have doubts about its safety, you don’t use it. Before you shoot at something living, you check to see if it’s sighted in. Period. No excuses. 

If nitwits are yammering at you, you tell them to shut the f**ck up because you can’t concentrate. No experienced shooter would put up with their nonsense. 

An experienced shooter would not ask if a rifle kicks before using it in the heat of battle. That would not be uppermost in their mind; getting the animal down would be. 

Why, before the fatal shot was fired, did the editor of the film superimpose a bogus crosshair on the poor dopey caribou? Why do we not see Ms. Palin firing the rifle? Is it because she did not do the shooting? 

Finally, look at the way she carries the rifle as the party walks up to the late lamented ungulate. No experienced shooter carries a rifle like this.

Here is the video just in case there is ANYBODY who has not seen Palin acting like she has never seen a rifle before and taking so many shots to kill a clearly tethered caribou that it is amazing the poor animal did not simply die of boredom.

As you can see Mr. Petzal is only stating what should be glaringly obvious to even those of us with only minimal experience with firearms and hunting.

However daring to suggest that Sarah Palin could not shoot her way out of a wet paper bag is guaranteed to elicit a response from her hordes of supporters.

Sadly most of those hordes have moved on to support somebody who might actually run for office, so the gauntlet is left to be picked up by her brother Chuck "Oh my God! Stop undermining my meal ticket" Heath Jr.

Here is his letter for those that wish to have a good laugh.

In it he essentially says that he and his sisters (I understand that Palin is one of them, though interestingly enough he does not mention her by name) have been handling guns since before they were out of diapers. And that this guy is totally wrong about everything that he wrote, and everything that the video clearly demonstrates.

Look a picture of Palin holding a gun! Take that you liberals!

Because if you remember correctly from dealing with these people, reality is not the truth, only what a Palin or Heath tells you is the truth, is the actual truth.

Not only are Chuckie's panties in a bunch so are his rarely heard from sister's. Here is her response, or her ghostwriter's, or maybe even Chuck's, really who the hell knows anymore?

“He’s the typical lying SOB-type that I’ve been dealing with since 2008. I’m very disappointed in Field & Stream for printing his garbage. This made-up fantasy of the columnist ranks right up there with yesterday’s report in the Washington Post that claims I’m working for Al Jazeera. My retort to that one was: ‘Uum, right… and tomorrow I’m having coffee with Elvis at the Mocha Moose in Wasilla.’ Really, these silly people need to get a life!”

So there Mr. Petzal. you take your years of hunting experience, and decades of writing books about the hunting, and your incredible knowledge about hunting and you just overshoe it mister "hunter guy who thinks he knows everything."

Look another picture of her holding a gun. Convinced yet?

Oh, speaking of that picture up above, have you ever seen Sarah being shown how to hold that assault weapon? Well trust me, you need to see it.

You can almost FEEL her expertise and years of gun handling can't you?

DWTS pro WANTED to be paired with Bristol Palin this season. Want to guess why?

Valentin Chmerkovskiy with Elisabetta Canalis

Courtesy of the Examiner:  

Val(Valentin Chmerkovskiy), a relative newcomer to DWTS, wasn't too successful coming into Season 15, the all-star season. He had been paired up with Elisabetta Canalis and Sherri Shepherd for his first two seasons. He really had high hopes for Sherri Shepherd, but they were eliminated in the third week. So Val decided he would set things up the way he liked them for the all-stars. 

"Going into [Season 15] I had very different views and my imagination was taking me in a different way," Val revealed to Entertainment Tonight. "My expectations were very, very different. I was really happy to the idea of Bristol Palin, only because I was so discouraged with my last two seasons that I was like, look, I'm going into the all-stars season, which is definitely going to be the most competitive, and the last two seasons I've been eliminated in [Week] 2, 3. ... I was like, Bristol? At least I'll have an excuse. At least they'll be a reason and I'll be like 'Well, I did my best.'" 

Yep, THAT'S the way everybody sees the Palins these days. Destined to fail.

It must be so much fun around the Palin dining table arguing about which one of you is the biggest source of embarrassment.

Is it crazy word salad spewer Sarah, pimp daddy Todd, eternally clumsy/pregnant Bristol, wild child Willow, or the pathetic coat tail clinging "Two Chucks?"

You know I think the only one who can really feel proud of himself is Trig.

Hell if you think about it he may be the smartest, most talented, and most ethical one of the bunch.

Sarah Palin in her element, torturing a weiner in front of a group of horny old white men.

From Chuck Jr's blog.

And here we thought Palin could no longer attract a crowd.

By the way, according to Gretawire, Palin will end her self imposed exile and return to the Fox News airwaves tonight. Because you know they are desperate for guests, and have been suffering in the ratings since the election.

Do they really think having her back on will help, or will she simply stand on the accelerator as they plunge over the cliff to eventual obscurity?

I vote the latter.

The two Chucks are pissy that the local stores keep hiding their book from the customers. I call THAT a public service!

The Palin fairy tale troll let this slip, and I thought it was worth sharing (Warning link goes to Chuck Jr's blog.):  

Speaking of finding the book, Dad is on another mission to get it front and center after finding out that it has been deliberately buried in the local Costco and other stores. I said something about it to Sarah this morning and she told me she went through exactly the same thing with Going Rogue, and America by Heart. She said that we shouldn’t drive ourselves crazy trying to make these stores do the right thing… the word will get out. We’re obviously not Sarah, but she always seems to give us great advice… so we’ll try to relax.

You know what the Palin/Heaths fail to recognize is that they are quite literally despised by many of the people in Alaska, and yes even in Wasilla. So the idea that their book is being "buried" should come as no surprise.

A couple of years ago Dennis and I interviewed people in and around Wasilla for one of the national gossip sites (I can't remember which one right now. Possibly TMZ.) and we were sort of shocked at the number of people who simply despised Sarah. Though literally NONE were willing to say so on camera.

Never forget that during the 2008 election we Alaskans were the ones shouting out to anybody who would listen that the woman was a nut-job and that they needed to keep her as far from the White House as humanly possible.

Fortunately for all of us our voices were heard and, perhaps even more importantly, people also paid attention to the crap falling out of the Tundra Turd's mouth as well.

Perhaps it is JUST NOW dawning on these grifters that the jig is up, and that nobody wants to read their family mythological mooseshit anymore. Of course that probably won't stop them, after all what else can they do these days to make money?
