The Mudflats

Tiptoeing Through the Muck of Alaskan Politics

Cake, Ice Cream and Song!

Well, it’s Sarah Palin’s birthday today.  And it seemed only right to acknowledge it somehow.  The usual traditions are cake, ice cream and song.  But since we can’t find any cake, and suspect it’s on its way to Western Alaska where the “Let Them Eat Cake” philosophy seems to be in full swing, we are left with ice cream and song.

Several noteable figures have been memorialized in ice cream, thanks to Ben & Jerry.  There’s Cherry Garcia, and Stephen Colbert’s AmeriCone Dream…so we thought it would be fitting to come up with the perfect Sarah Palin ice cream flavor.  Mudflatters, as we all know, are a creative and clever bunch, so the suggestions for our contest were numerous!  I picked out more than 30 that had been posted in comments and emails, and added a few myself.  If I have overlooked your brilliant suggestion, I apologize.  But, I wanted to keep the field reasonably manageable.

So, vote for your five favorites below, and I’ll suggest it to Ben & Jerry.  You just never know.

Now, for the song.   The traditional Happy Birthday to You song is just so….well….plain.  Mudflatter Secret Shopper for Hungry Kids, who must have been a lyricist in a past life, has teamed up with her hubby to offer the following birthday song.  Everybody join in to the tune of “Another One Bites the Dust.”

*Another One Under the Bus (Updated)*
Many thanks to John Deacon and Queen!

Sarah walks haughtily down the street
With the Evangelical’s dough
Watch your back, don’t look at your feet
Cause the knife hilt’s starting to show
Are you ready, hey, are ready for this
Are you a member of the media elite
Out of the doorway the pitbull strikes
To the sound of the beat

Another one under the bus
Another one under the bus
And another one’s gone, and Talis is done,

Another one under the bus
Walt, I’m gonna get you too
Another one under the bus

How do think I’m gonna get Vuitton
Without the RNC
I took them for everything that they had
Katie, don’t you know it’s all about ME
You can muck it, you can duck the press
Or subpoenas when you feel the heat
Out the doorway the pitbull bites
To the sound of the beat

Another one under the bus
Another one under the bus
And another one’s gone like my brother Wooten    (pronounce Woo-Tawn)
Another one under the bus
Mike, I’m gonna get you too
Another one under the bus

There are plenty of ways to kill a man
And make sure that he’s screwed
You can yank him, Bailey Frank him
You can send out Todd
You can fly with leaking fluid
But I’m ready, hey, yeah I’m ready for you
Cause my house and sports complex’s complete
Out of the doorway the pitbull strikes
To the sound of the beat

Another one under the bus

    She ain’t got no nuts.

    But she is a nut, eh?

    Tonight the UNC Tarheels played the Duke Blue Devils in Cameron Indoor Stadium (home of the BlueDevils). Duke has given up an average of 60 pts to other teams this season at home. Carolina whooped ‘em by 101 to 87.

    So many appropriate and good choices, but I went with something that would be recognizable to just about everyone if Ben and Jerry’s goes for it, so I picked the I Can See Fudge from My House. Rocky Road to Nowhere was my other top choice. I think anyone, even those who have left politics and Sarah as an all but forgotten bad dream, would know just who those two were about.

    I’d say Happy Birthday, Sarah, but I just can’t bring myself to do it.

    Yes, I think you’re absolutely right! As a matter of fact, I think an orange jumpsuit would be very flattering to her figure and would go quite well with her hair color and brown eyes. I think she might have to rethink the color of that red lipstick, though…and don’t forget, flip flops instead of boots…what a sight….LOL!

    There would be a few losers here and there eating it up, but ultimately it would FAIL, because who wants to eat sketchy melted ice cream?

    But since ice cream flavors have been brought up on the Mudflats:

    So you lived in Wasilla, got raped, were too poor to pay for what Mayor Palin charged to get your rapist nailed, what type of ice cream would you eat?

    How about RAPE KIT WASILLA VANILLA? (out of stock)

    Sarah Palin, as governor of Alaska, charges survivors of rape, sexual assault, and incest for an assault exam kit, average cost, $180. If the rape/incest survivor cannot pay, all the evidence is thrown in the garbage. That is wrong. Sarah Palin, in her jurisdiction of Alaska’s governor, has made the state pretty much open season for rapists.

The Iditarod shows much more frontier spirit than those idiots on snowMOBILES. Or how about people like Ann Strongheart who actually have to ride their machines to do something USEFUL, like getting groceries. I’m just completely pissy about this stupid race. Waste of fuel, polluting as hell, just an ego builder for Alaska guys with heads that already won’t fit in their cars. Stupid stupid stupid. Darwin Award for the entire lot of them.

    I’m with you womanwithsardinecan, I think this race is a stupid ridiculous selfish waste……it’s hard to believe people would risk their life or limb end up disabled or whatever, really thinkin about their families aren’t they.

    we should work to outlaw this type fuel usage.

    so I have some flat rate boxes of food ready to go, in one I put a large bottle of liquid laundry soap that kinda bulges the box, it’s not exactly flat. anyone this this will be a problem? it wouldn’t be worth ruining all the food, maybe I’ll take it back and buy smaller bottles.

    also, it wouldn’t cost much at all to send parcel post a box stuffed full plastic bags would it?

    @womanwithsardinecan –

    I’m with you on the Iron Dog. YAWN! What’s so inspiring about a bunch of guys who ride their snowmobiles all day every day? That’s a sport? And a lot of these guys have families! What do their families do while they spend all of their time riding around?

    Many work on the slope (or similar rotating schedule) and spend virtually all of their non-work time “training” for this by riding around. If they work on the slope they don’t need the money that this brings, so I just don’t get it.

    Be a real man & spend time with your families!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I could understand if it were populated by a bunch of young guys (or girls) without real responsibilities, but all of those guys with kids to raise! What sucky priorities!

    maybe he’s color blind and wasn’t under her red dressed male attraction spell, lol……loved her squirming and spinning trying to get away from the questions. Swinging her chair back and forth, can we say nervous anybody? she had to get snarky too.

    it’s too late to be sorry for a stupid choice after the fact, kinda like drinking and driving, it doesn’t take a whole lotta smarts to figure this one out…..selfish, self centered and unbelievable. it says they love el macho selves more than their family.

    Shes so empty in her words and body language.

    I have been forwarding the CNN story onto people and some of my friends are going to get a dinner, in Seattle, I also sent out that link in an effort to help.

    The solutions may not be found overnight, but still a whole month later, she did NOTHING in her actions, it is only when this ended up on CNN that she even acknowledged this. I will send this video out, after the stories on CNN and Seattle. just to show a timeline.

    Thanks for all your help AKM and to all the people who are letting people know. And happy birthday Darwin. We spent yesterday remembering the good people born so we had cake in honor of my Dad, What was her name, Sorry uhhh, i mean sarah. I dont know, this really irritates me at how disingenuous this gov is.

    @ Paula, Good thing that there is a timeline that cannot be ignored. From what is documented She states that “numerous” times, but she quoted exactly she sent staff “three times”. But from what I remember she only sent 3 staff, once. Another thing I noticed is she made it sound like she was doing a huge service by extending hunting season, which is good, But lets consider Alaska natives should be on the board of fish and game. I believe (as a native) we should be able to go, hunt and fish in our usual and accustomed hunting grounds. The state regulations favor the “sports fisheries”. Much of those fisherman are non native and much of our food is sent out. But, that really isnt much. So basically, thats her quick answer to the crisis. Then, did you know to go hunting, it takes FUEL to get there nowadays? and to go fishing, IT costs more.. these days. Subsistence fishing doesnt mean “free” it means, that you have to find a way to even afford to go out, even in areas that it isnt as challenging as the Yukon area, that is challenging. Thats why I sent out emails, (my listserv is long too) in which , if you follow them, it shows she did NOTHING. all she is,,is talk. ALL TALK NO ACTION! I didnt get this, and the news reporters seemed sad to have to speak the truth…does the gov control the media or something? hmmm

    You will know when you take the box to the PO whether it will work or not – my guess is that probably so. I have received some pretty weird shaped one rates myself, although I always send them out myself pretty flat.

    Ann told us yesterday via email that she finally has lots of plastic bags – folks have been stuffing them in. I sent a bunch of those green fabric recycled carry bags and those work great, too because they are tough and have great handles. If folks stick in one or two of those hear and there when they mail boxes that would be a big help, too! Bless all of you who are sending boxes! My next box goes to Victoria, the Village Coordinator for Pilot Point & Ugashik.

    Ann, I’ll send my boxes to Victoria, thanks for the heads up.

    Also, do people in AK have family or friends in the states do shopping for them and then ship? I don’t know if the savings on products costing less but with shipping would save or not.

    I wondered if it would help your dollars go further (when things finally get back on track). Kinda like a long distance personal shopper, lol. Seems like anything that would fit in these flat rate boxes would be a good thing for us to buy for you.

    When I look at your personal shopping list some things seem real out of wack……like Koolaid, canned veggies, spaghetti noodles, tp, cuppa noodles. We have warehouse type stores here called Aldi’s a no frills type store that have great prices.

    We also have damaged goods stores, where a box of something like cereal has a crunched corner or a jar of something broke and got everything else in it’s shipping box messy. These damaged goods are refused at the store and returned to shipper who then sells them to a salvage distributors. Here in MO there are a lot of rural lower income families so these salvage outlets are all over.

    We also have a grocery store that has a $1.00 dollar isle. Dollar stores are big too, lol, every item is a buck. It’s a good place to buy the cleaning stuff and some groceries.

    I guess my point is I’d be happy to shop for someone if it would help. I can only spend so much of my own dollars on our budget, but I have time to donate, lol

    Another thought…….have villages tried setting up a co-op purchasing directly from wholesale companies? Back in my hippy days we did this, it takes coordination and volunteers but it’s a neat concept. I wonder if something like that could work for maybe serveral villages in close in proximity.

    One more question, well 2, lol, is pilot bread the same as soda crackers? and the tea, dried tea bags okay or bottled?

    So I’m repacking my boxes and will send off at least 2 tomorrow from Missouri. The one I have with every spare inch completely stuffed weighs 19 lbs, lol……how are the post office guys handling this? Good sports about it? I’m havin a blast! I need to get more boxes from the po, I only grabbed 2 and shopped way bigger, lol.

    HOW TO HELP……
    Food Donations can be mailed to:

    Pilot Point Food Drive
    c/o Pilot Point Tribal Council
    POB 449
    Pilot Point, AK 99649

    One of the quickest and easiest ways to help is to pick up a FREE flat rate priority mail box at the post office, fill it with items from the list below (remove extra packaging to fit more in the box), use Ziplock bags and other useful items as packing material and mail it to the address above.

    Victoria’s list of suggestions…

    We do not have babies under 1 y/o, at this time, and more elders in our villages so our ‘list’ is a little different.
    Basics -
    Flour
    Sugar
    Powdered milk
    Powdered eggs
    Toilet Paper is ALWAYS good
    pasta- all kinds
    dried fruit
    canned fruit and veggies
    Also we are low on meat, but do have fish – so anything of the canned meat is great – corned beef hash, Spam, etc.
    beans
    split peas
    rice
    brown sugar
    crisco
    bisquick/krustee
    tomato paste
    I think that is a good start.

    Thank you ALL so much. It is hard when there is no store in either of our villages and the costs are so high to bring things in. The wait can be from a few days, for ‘local’ to 4-6 weeks, cheaper, for grocery orders to arrive. Families are hard pressed to guess and then stretch things to make it.

    Thanks again,
    Victoria

    http://www.nytimes.com/2008/10/22/us/politics/22mining.html?_r=1

    “The Palin administration declined to investigate ethics concerns raised by a Republican lawmaker who says mining officials have tried to buy the loyalty of native leaders, not least by paying $25,000 per month to house workers in the homes of influential locals.

    One of those houses is owned by Ethel and John Adcox, the parents of a close friend of Todd Palin, the governor’s husband. The Adcoxes say that the $25,000 vastly exceeds the typical rate for their modest guesthouse in the tiny village of Iliamna.

    “We just feel privileged to live here when this money is being spent and villages are not dying,” said Ethel Adcox, a Yup’ik leader and distant relative of Mr. Palin.

    Pebble is feeding her entire village — literally — with free steak and lobster dinners each Sunday, she said, adding, “It leaves a good taste in your mouth.”

    Re Emmonak and the whole Yukon-Kuskokwim Delta. This administration’s apparent disregard for life in the villages is so unlike the Alaska I knew. And when I hear some advocate that those who can’t make a living there move the the city, I know they have never experienced life in that region. What do they think would happen if the urban areas of AK suddenly were inundated with folks whose only experience with earning a living was that of fishing, hunting, trapping, etc. that has always previously sustained them? I think what I dislike about SP and all her cronies is that it makes a state that I have a deep love and appreciation for, seem like a bunch of ninnies, liars and incompetents.

    “Next week Greta Van Susteren will have The Palin Family “On The Record” including Bristol Palin on her new adventure of motherhood.

    Greta has always stood up for women in politics saying that you don’t have to agree with their politics but there isn’t a reason to be mean. That said I would think that Greta will do a good interview with Sarah Palin and her family. I guess if you are respectful then you get the interviews, what an interesting concept in today’s world.

    Should be an interesting interview. “On The Record” airs week nights on the Fox News channel @ 9pm central time.”
