Failin' Palin, Cool!


Scary to consider, but it's true ... Sarah Palin really almost makes George W. Bush come across like a brainiac genius leader!

Seriously, dudes. If she had been running for President on her own in the beginning, she would have been more so a laughingstock of the Republican party than even that loon Alan Keyes, which is saying quite a lot. He was funnier than hell, though. Comic relief never really such a bad thing, but my God, this woman is actually now in a position to head us all up once John McCain keels over!

It's pretty telling when her own party is openly confessing to lowered expectations for tomorrow night's debate face to face versus Biden. Personally, especially following up these recent handful of what-the-fuck-is-she-even-squawking-about? interviews, I think the debate might hopefully be the final nail in McCain's coffin. His campaign's coffin, that's what I meant to say.

And God knows he's driven in plenty himself, one would think. Surprisingly, apparently not enough. I'm guessing that Sarah will most likely pound in the last, and perhaps the death knell will toll in just over twenty-four hours from now. That would be awesome.

If I'm wrong and she happens to pull off somehow a stellar showing, I'll be the first to admit my bad jumping to conclusions. Although I don't expect that will be necessary. But in case of the unexpected, I'll humbly eat crow. Even going so far as sharing whatever shining examples of her potential brilliant performance, I'll bring 'em to ya.

  2. LOL! At the picture. It's really hard to watch Palin. She's so over her head.

  3. I fear expectations are so low that if she can just keep her foot out of her mouth, she wins. Luckily, this debate will probably have little impact on the campaign.

    Palin's popularity dropped like a rock once people started listening to what she was saying. It is now obvious she is out of her league. So much for McCain's judgment.

  4. "So much for McCain's judgment."

    Doug B., true that! Wait, a more modern slang would be: I cosign!

  5. The word palin should become a new slang word. It could mean a garbled answer or a bad or dumb job.

    "Man, I really did a Palin on that test!"

    Yep, unfortunately for the most part I think she did manage to keep her foot out of her mouth. As far as winning, I think she fell short of that but I'm biased. I really just had hoped to have something to laugh about, but she didn't suck.

    Clearly, though, she's been crash coursing on these things which really proves nothing toward her ability to be in office, I do hope that much at least showed through. And maybe does point out, too, McCain's poor judgement.

I Think

I think I'm bored blogging. I think I'm done with it. I think what's the point? I think you should check out my blogroll instead. I think they say stuff better anyway.

Betty White "needs to start taking her relationship with God serious." Seriously?

I was one of those grassroots Facebook campaigners responsible for Betty White hosting Saturday Night Live the other night, so for that, let me just say: "You're very welcome!" I thought she was fantastic, better even than I had expected she might be, and by most accounts her coming on the show was a huge success. Except for some, who apparently had more eternal concerns weighing on their minds, precluding enjoying it so much. Like Jose, who while conceding that Betty White is legend "in this day and age of rebels and rockers" (I really don't know what that means, but it seems to be a good thing), is more concerned about her afterlife appearance instead, presumably being so old as she is. A legend, sure ... "However, I think Betty really needs to start taking her relationship with God serious. Betty can't please this new generation, she has nothing to prove to them. Her relationship with the Lord is what she needs to take serious." Well, all...

It Could Happen

I was digging deep again, as I do every year or so, into my box of keepsakes and relics that I really don't know why I kept them but did. Stuff I wrote as a kid (some of that, I must say, rather disturbing), old letters of the real life mailed sort, newspaper clippings of miscellany, that have strangely yellowed and gotten brittle already and that shit just ain't right since it seems not so long ago ... whatever, I'm getting old. From the Kansas City Kansan , newspaper that we got delivered daily, Friday, July 25, 1975, I had cut out and kept this one particular article headlined "Youngster completes first novel." I was always writing as a kid, so I remember very well snipping this one item, on account of the twelve-years-old youngster was my same age, and I very much wanted my own novel published. Of course I hadn't written it yet, but I figured this proved I could do it, too, kept it for an affirmation thingy. Over the years I've remembered saving that s...
