Sarah Palin, Resignation and Basketball

I just finished listening to Sarah Palin’s resignation speech, from start to finish.
Wowsers.
After almost 7 full minutes of rambling… and not a whole lot of sense-making, we learn that she is stepping down as Governor of Alaska.
It was quite disjointed, from strange basketball analogies to promises to affect political change for Alaska outside of politics, to my personal [...]

Sarah Palin, Africa and “the Southern Part of the Country”

For those of you who are sad that John McCain/Sarah Palin lost the election, perhaps this report will make you feel a little better about the way things turned out.
It appears that Sarah Palin never knew Africa was a continent.
She thought it was a country, and that when people refer to “South Africa”, they were merely [...]

Wardrobes, Sarah Palin and Destitute Staff Members

I was thinking I may stay away from all things Sarah Palin now that Barack Obama has won the presidency.
My thought process was that if Obama can continue to take the high road, surely I can too.
Right?
Not so much.
Some of this stuff is simply too juicy to pass up, so here I am, tail between [...]

Hate, Bigotry and the Good Ol’ U.S. of A.

John McCain has finally decided to address the issue of his foaming-at-the-mouth supporters.
You know, the ones calling for Barack Obama’s death.
Not surprisingly, his campaign’s statement was completely inappropriate.
He not only decided to condone the words of his supporters, but also managed to blame Obama at the same time.
Lovely.
Brian Rogers, a McCain spokesman released the following:
Barack [...]

The Suspension That Never Was…

Deep down, I knew this shit was too good to be true.
The GOP ticket is so full of empty promises- it’s enough to break a girl’s heart.
So while everyone else was busy suspending McCain’s campaign, he was busy…
Um…
Campaigning.
Naw- he didn’t actually hightail it to Washington to steer the Senate masses in the right direction so as to pass this economic bailout [...]

Depression, Captains and Multi-Tasking

McCain has announced that he will be suspending his campaign to concentrate solely on the economy.
He wants Obama to put his campaign on hold too- and has asked that Friday’s presidential debates be cancelled.
Obama’s cool taking the partisan route with McCain, and coming up with an economic plan-of-action… in fact, it was Obama’s idea to try and work with McCain on this train-wreck to begin [...]

Kindergartners, Sex-Ed and the Dirty Old Man

So…
What, specifically, is it about Barack Obama that brings out the raging lunatic liar in people?
No seriously- I really am curious about this.
Apparently it wasn’t enough to lie about his being a Muslim… or about his having ties to terrorism… or about his U.S. Citizenship (though I gotta say- if Obama ain’t a citizen, in spite [...]

This Blogger’s Nightmare

I am very… sad… and perhaps a bit angry as well.
This has been one of those really emotional days, a day where I found myself questioning whether or not to even continue this blog.
I’m not looking for sympathy, but I most certainly am looking to get this out.
I started this blog in hopes of creating [...]
