They Walk Among Us

I've pretty much left alone the Michael Jackson cirque du macabre that was billed as his "memorial"  Frankly, I don't care enough about Jackson to spend much time opining about him or his death.  This is not specifically about Jackson, but that are some really stupid people that walk among us.  This gal is pretty sure that Sarah Palin caused Michael Jackson's demise.  What mental gymnastics she had to perform to get to that end is probably completely incomprehensible to rational thinking people, but she's pretty sure that must be the reason Sarah Palin resigned as Governor of Alaska.  She called Al Sharpton's radio show to alert the nation.

Here's a partial transcript courtesy of the Radio Equalizer:

FEMALE CALLER (31:50): He (Michael Jackson) is truly the soundtrack of my life. I also have a theory about Sarah Palin as well and I’m going to put it out there on radio, hopefully someone can investigate.

But, I think maybe she did something to Michael Jackson. Maybe there’s a scandal there. Maybe she’s stepping down because something’s about to come out. I don’t know, but I’m gonna just put it out there on your show so we’ll see.

SHARPTON: All right, thank you for your call, Ashley. That’s interesting. I’ll put it out, we’ll see. I don’t know.

As much as I dislike Sharpton, I cannot believe he might think this woman is on to something.  Al has cooked up his share of idiocy in his time, but even he knows what might be believable and what isn't.

I actually have my own theory as to the Palin/Jackson thing.  See, I've noticed that, over the years, no one never saw Michael Jackson and Sara Palin in the same place.   My guess is that she killed him off years ago, and when we first noticed that he was turning white, it was actually Palin in make up.  She finally had to have him die off in public so she could run for President.  See, if she gets elected, all those body guards would make it darn hard to sneak out and do those fifty shows in London.  Hey, it's as believable as that woman in the clip.

Sarah Palin

The Democrats often complain about the "politics of personal destruction" when someone says something critical, but no one is as mean and nasty as the Democrats have been to Governor Palin and her family.

When Senator McCain announced her as his running mate, the press and the Democrat machine (often one and the same) went into high gear.  Dumpster diving and sewer swimming for any dirt they could find on the Palins, their relatives, friends and even their ancestors became a 24/7 operation.  Gossip was fact and rumor was king.  There was a huge double standard in the reporting and with Democrat surrogates:  Obama's family was off limits, but Governor Palin's family was somehow fair game.

One of the first lies out of the box was that her son, Trig, was not actually her son, it was her daughter's and she adopted him to cover up the fact that her daughter had a baby out of wedlock.  Except that Bristol was now pregnant and the timing made it impossible for her to have had Trig.  And when it was announced, Palin tried to show support for her daughter in the face of every idiot democrat in the country shouting "SCANDAL!!!11!!"  The Palins did what any parents would do and tried to put the best spin on an unfortunate situation and they were held up to scathing criticism. 

Once it became clear to most that Trig was Sarah's baby, most moved on to denounce her for either not aborting the little monster now in her care or for being a working mother.  "How could she care for her children with a full time job?", They bleated. Palin was even accused of believing in witches and wanting to burn them at the stake.

Even Hollywood got into the act.   Most notably (and recently) was the despicable David Letterman, saying she looks like a slut and joking about her underage daughter having sex with a ball player (and yes, it would have been just as tasteless even if it was meant for Bristol.  Who does that kind of "joke" and what kind of lowlife even finds it to be funny? 

Lawsuit after lawsuit was filed against her in Alaska charging her with every kind of ethical shortcoming .  Never mind that the ones reaching a judge were dismissed, that didn't matter.  The plan was to bankrupt her with endless legal fees and make it seem like she was some kind of criminal - worse than their own Blogojevich problem.  It didn't matter that she isn't crooked - it's important to make her look that way by filing lawsuit after lawsuit.

When she announced her resignation the other day, the left ran wild with rumors of FBI investigations.  Oh they just knew that she was gonna be "frog marched" right out of the governor's mansion - until the FBI said no, she is not under any investigation.

If she was simply going to quit, who could blame her.  After all, the left in this country has tried every wrench in their "politics of personal destruction" tool box to destroy her.

I (and most other people) don't think she's going to disappear.  I think in the next few months, we'll see the new "sarah-cuda"; ready to take the fight to the next level.

The left is afraid of her.  If they weren't, they wouldn't spend all the money, time and use every opinion vehicle they can find  to undermine her.  This will be interesting to watch.

P. Diddy Piddling Himself

From Fox News:

Music mogul Sean ” P. Diddy” Combs, head of Bad Boy Entertainment, who grew up in Harlem, and once famously rapped ” Can’t Nobody Hold me Down”, has admitted in a blog that he is” very scared”. What’s the source of his fear? Sarah Palin.

Memo to P:

Seek counseling to get over that fear of strong, intelligent women.

The Veep Debate

Palin was awesome.  Biden didn't even know what hit him. 

Biden did not look all that comfortable and Palin was acting like she was in her own living room.

Biden lied twice.  The clean coal lie where he said no more coal plants  and when he said that Obama would not meet with dictators without precondition.  Palin called him on it and he lied even more.

Both hamered away at their respective opponents bosses.  Palin landed more blows then old Joe.  As Mort Kondracke said afterwards, "She was feisty."

Americans are looking for someone that knows their struggles.  We've heard a lot of talk about Main Street these past few days and I can tell you, Joe Biden couldn't find main street on anyone's map.  Sarah Palin is from Main Street. 

I actually think most people recognize that and I think she may have changed the game a bit.

Any bets that the unhinged left will redouble their nasty attacks on Palin?

For the mean time, Palin is back and we are excited again!

The 1984 Miss Alaska Swimsuit Competition

Someone dug up Sarah (Heath) Palin doing her swimsuit walk in the 1984 Miss Alaska pageant.

I'm sure if you search for it, you'll find it.  Other than the lefties snickering while they touch themselves, it is rather staid, even by 1984 standards.  If that's all you left wing droolers have - BRING IT!

Get a grip, people!

Charlie Daniels on Sarah Palin

Ain't No Mystery

In the last couple of weeks, there is no denying that Sarah Palin has attained superstar status in the political arena and the Democrats and the mainstream media are scratching their heads and wondering what hit them. In fact, in a matter of days, she has had more media scrutiny than Barack Obama has had in the past two years.

I seriously doubt if they will admit the truth about Sarah Palin, even if they were able to accept it. There's no deep dark mystery here, no Rosetta Stone required to decipher the Palin phenomenon. It's as simple as first grade arithmetic.

Sarah Palin is the first politician to come along in decades who is truly one of "We The People". The distance between Alaska and Washington, DC has never been more apparent than when you hear this lady speak.

Relaxed, confident, feminine and totally unafraid of the left-wing media that so terrifies the beltway bunch. She comes off as somebody who could live next door to you and very well come by to borrow a cup of sugar or offer to pick your kids up from school.

When you compare her to Barack Obama, he comes off as stiff, formal, arrogant and elitist, somebody who hides behind barricades and bodyguards, the kind of guy you'd never think of giving a hug to.

Compare her to Hillary Clinton, and Hillary comes off as an ice queen who has never done her own laundry or cooked a Thanksgiving dinner.

Compare her to Joe Biden, and Biden comes off as a guy you've probably never seen without a suit on, who represents politics as usual and the same old insider trading that has been going on in Washington for way too long.

Compare her to Harry "the war is lost, the surge is not working" Reid, and Harry Reid comes off like a pessimistic old man who hoards pennies and kicks cats.

Compare her to Nancy Pelosi who says we simply can't do anything about our energy situation. Sarah Palin represents hope and practical solutions like drilling in ANWR in her home state of Alaska. Of course she'll have to talk her running mate into it.

The bottom line is that Sarah Palin, in her feminine style of dress, her hair fashionably done, wearing makeup and talking common sense is just somebody who represents the regular folks, not the special interest groups, in fact she wouldn't even allow a lobbyist into her office as Governor of Alaska.

What Barrack Obama and all the empty suits in the Democrat party can't understand is that Sarah Palin represents somebody America feels they could sit down and have a cup of coffee with, someone who has not spent her life in politics or academia, but has been a wife, a mother and an ordinary American who has experienced first hand the problems rank and file citizens face on a daily basis.

And something they had better learn right away. America really likes Sarah, we identify with her, and a slap at her is a slap at us.

And Americans don't like being slapped.

What do you think?

All I can say to that is Amen, Amen, and Amen!!!

Obama Is Not Jesus And Palin Is Not Pilate

Have you seen it?

For those of you with older eyes, it says: "Jesus was a community organizer; Pontius Pilate was a governor".

Since Jesus and Obama are almost interchangeable these days, I suppose this kind of thing was inevitable.

I'm no biblical scholar, but  they got Jesus's job description all wrong!  He was not  a "community organizer." Unlike many so-called "community organizers" today, He wasn't part of some organization like the corrupt Daley Machine or the just as corrupt ACORN. 

And that is the problem with the liberals, they don't understand Jesus's real job.  Jesus's life on earth could be more precisely described as itinerant preacher, but to Christians (Those that actually believe in Jesus), Jesus is more than a Billy Graham version 1.0.  Jesus is actually God!  In other words, He's all powerful and all knowing.  There's another job that Jesus claimed:  King of the Jews.

Again, the liberals get it wrong.  Pilate was indeed a governor (or Prefect or Procurator of Judea depending upon the source) of Judea.  Pilate was not elected, he was part of the Roman bureaucracy and was apponted or recommended  by a patron. Pilate, for the times, was not an especially evil man who ordered executions willy-nilly.  Yes, he ordered the death of Jesus, but that was more from pressure from the Sanhedrins than not.  Niether Pilate or the Sanhedrins believed Jesus was who he claimed to be and that doesn't exactly make any of them more or less evil than anyone else at the time.  He was a competent administrator and tax collector.  Other than his involvement with this one incident, he didn't really do anything particulary different than any other Roman bureaucrat.  I'm not a scholar of Roman and Jewish history, but that's my take on Pilate from the little I've read.  When reading history, one has to be aware of the biases and predilections of the writers.

Palin was elected and is wildly popular in her home state.  She was not appointed by the emporer of an occupying country.  To my knowledge, she hasn't recommended or authorized the execution of Obama either.  On the other hand, I think she is plotting his political demise, but that's not exactly the same thing.  :)

This is nothing more than a lame attempt by the left to continue to smear Sarah Palin.  I'm sorry, but I don't find the job of "community organizer" to be any more important or a qualification for the Presidency than my own job as a technician/mechanic on specialized equipment. I'm sure that so-called community organizers are proud of their work, but let's face it, it does not qualify anyone to be the President!  My job is important too, but that doesn't mean I should be CEO of my company!

Looking For Reagan

We've been looking for Reagan since 1988.  We've looked everywhere.  Certainly, many have come to claim the mantle of Reagan, but none quite measured up to the Gipper.  The spirit of Ronaldus Maximus seemed to have slipped away with his passing.  For the last 20 years, we have wondered in the wilderness.

We voted for his Vice President, but George Herbert Walker Bush was not Reagan.  Bob Dole was next, but he fell far short.  Finally, George Walker Bush came along and we thought we saw a glimmer of him.  We even reelected him, but we knew in our hearts that Dubya was only a pretender.  As much as we supported him in two elections, we knew he wasn't the next Reagan. 

Now, at the end of W's term, several men were running for President and all of them to some degree, claimed to be the Reagan standard bearer. 

Giuliani wasn't him.  Good, but a bit too socially liberal.

Thompson - maybe, but he seemed to lack the fire in his belly.

Romney - No, not quite - a little too polished and a little to East Coast.

McCain - Close, but a bit of a loose cannon.

We settled on McCain for a myriad of reasons, but not because he had the mantle of the Gipper.

It seems we were looking in all the wrong places!  Who knew we'd find him in Alaska wearing a skirt?

I'm not saying Sarah Palin is the next Ronald Reagan, but what I am saying is that she appears to be a lot closer to that ideal then any of the men in the party (with the possible exception of Bobby Jindal)! 

Ooooooh, Sarah-cuda!

I'm Finally Excited!

Power was out at work (they were doing some kind work near our building) so I was out of the loop this morning.  Now I'm playing catch-up.

I am so pleased with McCain's choice of Governor Palin.  She's a gutsy, take-no-prisoner kind of fighter and reformer that won't rollover for anyone. 

She is probably the one Vice Presidential choice that has kept Obama awake at night.

What's funny is that the the Obamunists are knocking her for her "inexperience.  Does that mean that we can now ask Obama about what qualifies him, outside of being a liberal African-American, to be President.  (Yes I made reference to his race - why not - HE does!)

I fully support the McCain/Palin ticket.  I'm excited and I expect to remain so for the duration.  Palin is a game changer!

Here is a list of Democrat responses that I've gleaned from reading around:

• She has no foreign policy experience!

Well neither does Obama and Biden isn't exactly Secretary of State material having royally pissed off the Iraqis.

• She was only the mayor of a town of 9000 people!

Yeah and and now she's the governor!  She went in as a reformer and she's run the state well enough to have an 80% approval rating.  (I assume the other 20% are the crooks and liars she is putting out of business!)

• The GOP is using taking advantage of a young, naive woman for their own benefit.

Anyone who thinks that is true is just an idiot.  It's obvious sexism.

• How will she take care of her Downs Syndrome son?

The same way she does now, dumba**!

• She was picked for purely political reasons.

Yeah and name me a Veep pick who isn't.  They are all window dressing to a large degree.

I feel confident that she would make a great President should the need arise.  The country would be in good hands.  I listened to her speech from my car today and I was impressed.  I was shouting!

Go Sarah Barracuda!

Oh, and let me add, that she is a Blue Star mom!  He will soon be serving in Iraq!  Put that in your damn chicken Hawk pipes and smoke it!
