Screen Door Saturday, and a Double Dose of Rallies!
If you’re in Anchorage, or within driving distance, the downtown Park Strip is the place to be on Saturday!
There’s something for everyone!
*********************
The Governor’s Picnic!
Yes, this is it. Anchorage’s “Screen Door” Celebration (as in, “Don’t let the screen door hit you on the way out!”) to bid adieu to the soon-to-be-ex governor and usher out the end of a very strange era that has been anything but beneficial to our state.
It hasn’t even been one term, or even one year since her nomination as VP candidate, but we’ve packed in more than our share of nail biting, head banging, belly laughing, chin stroking, face palming, head scratching, and typing our little fingers to the bone.
And this is it. Finally. The last full day of the Palin administration.
The Governor’s Picnic is an annual event, but this one is sure to be a piece of history. So come on down and say you were there.
Join with your fellow Alaskans on the Park Strip. Carry a sign if it moves you. Humorous ones are probably in order to be in keeping with the festive mood. Bring the kids, get a hot dog from the governor, and enjoy the afternoon.
When: Noon to 3pm
***********************
And while you’re there, right on the Park Strip, enjoy another event!
Alaskans Coming Together for Health Care Reform!
There will definitely be lots of media coverage downtown for that other event I just mentioned… so it’s a great time to throw your support to something positive and get some good coverage for the issues important to our future! Band together with your fellow Americans and demand REAL health care reform. Send a message to congress. Bring your signs, your kids, your dog, and make a day of it!
Find out what you can do to organize for real change.
The event kicks off at 2pm, and speakers begin at 2:30.
When: 2pm to 4pm
*****************************
Use the comments to talk about the event, and make suggestions for signs and slogans for both events!
*Note that the official “stepping down” will occur at the Fairbanks Governor’s Picnic the following day. Don’t fear… Mudflats will have “boots on the ground!”
I’m hoping a 15 ft tall solid wood door hits her on the way out.
im hoping the door does hit her
sorry
no im not
just heard norah odonnell from msnbc is goint to be there
that should be interesting.
I’ll be there in spirit!
take lots and lots of pictures!
lexky –
Yup – Yup !! Just heard the same thing !!
PICTURES………pretty please…..with a cherry on top.
I can’t wait to see pictures and hear the stories. Be safe, but have a ton of fun. I hope Brian will be there. AKM, can you sneak him onto the stage?
I would have thought that the way to handle the transfer of power would have been for a nice, small, ceremony of the ‘passing of the gavel’ from SP to SP … oh nuts, same initials… Palin to Parnell, at the capitol, would have been appropriate.
Nope, not your Sarah. Gotta be a picnic, and not just one, and not in … the actual capitol???
Proof of the pudding will be in who gets to talk longer. Get your stopwatches out and time how long they speak. Parnell should be the focus of attention. The day is supposed to be about him and the future.
Time their speeches. If Palin speaks longer, then obviously she thinks the day is all about her. Bad form. Like, the bridesmaid upstaging the bride at the wedding.
I suggest wearing non-logoed red shirts and chanting “Sean Parnell! Sean Parnell!” if she babbles on too long.
I wonder if she’ll even show up.
boy i wish I could be there. How ever I would not be able to come up with a sigh as clever as the ones you all come up with. Bye sarah palin.
RED shirts? Dontcha mean BLUE ones? What’d I miss? I thought we don’t “do” RED.
Any chance of national coverage? I’ve been out of pocket for 24 hours, so I’m not caught up.
How about someone live blogging this momentous event?
“Ding Dong the witch is dead” Slogan
Photo-shop the witch melting from wizard of oz, with the face of Palin..
Or how about:
Sarah Palin for President: 2012-2013 1/2.
She’ll arrive late and leave early.
The actual Capital NEVER gets a Gov’s Picnic. I think the theory is that the person is “always” here, so we don’t need a special occassion to see him/her, and the picnic parade around the state is a chance for the gov to meet and greet constituents in other towns.
That said, tomorrow is one of the few days I wish I could be in Anchorage…
Really, Norah M from MSNBC is going to be there? Maybe she would like to take Brian on stage!!
Oops, Norah O’
A suggestion:
Thank You Sarah
Health care reform, NOW!
Help Sarah get the help she needs.
Maybe all of us out of staters can have an open thread to celebrate in our absence?
Will Piper be serving up the hot dogs? She can also too drag out the lemonade stand!
Really? It’s a TRAVELING picnic?
Never heard of that before!
“Buh-Bye Sarah!
Don’t forget your tanning bed!”
Terpsichore: To even suggest that the picnic and the transfer of power is NOT ABOUT HER is unrealistic – look who we are talking about! Of course it is about HER, HER HER HER HER HER! Tell you what, bring the stopwatch – I will put up a dollar a minute (my money on HER HER HER HER HER to speak far longer than Parnell). Wonder if she will take the (priceless) advice of the organizers to wear sensible shoes and no naughty monkey heels. I considered the fact that she might not even show up – but now that the cameras and national media are attending, no way she can pass it up. Hope to see pics of pups with signs, maybe “AK FUND TRUST= FRAUD – GIVE THE $ BACK SARAH!”
“QUITTER BITTER TWITTERER – GOOD RIDDANCE!”
Great Idea about the signs and the health care reform meeting.We really do need health care reform It is pretty bad when Viagra Is covered but not any form of birth control by insurance companies.Access to Birth Control would eliminated most abortions IMO
samper–There’s one in Wasilly today, Anchortown tomorrow, Squarebanks on Sunday. I think that’s usually the situation–ones in Anch. and Fbx. each year and often ones in other towns too.
samper: How dare you attack little Piper! (joke)
Lori and samper–yeah, this isn’t Philly!
InJuneau: Nothing for you folks in Juneau… THE CAPITAL?
InJuneau -
Schuster said about 20 minutes ago that Norah is gonna be in Ak. for the last couple of days of Palin in office. Norah does not back down for ANYBODY. And she can get feisty real quick if need be. She is one of my favorites.
Wouldn’t it be more appropriate to have this party AFTER she was gone?
Also, please make sure someone puts WD-40 on those screen door hinges!
I agree with Samper – Blue shirts!!! That’s the democratic color!
I was JUST suggesting that since Piper already HAS the lemonade stand that it can be incorporated with what I’m sure to be her hot dog handing out duties.
Poor little thing does ALL the work!
Unfortunately, I am unable to attend, so I hereby volunteer these slogans to anyone who wants to use them on signs:
Is it thanks to Mike & Mitt that SARAH must quit?
Old mavericks never die, they just quit.
$arah, $mile
Any word on national coverage?
What’s the time difference again for the East Coast?
samper–nope, never had been (not that we’re crying about that this time around…!). And, I think that lemonade stand is packed away in the moving van that just left here and wouldn’t have made it back to Wasilly yet…!
samper–4 hour time diff (you’re 4 hrs later) to the East Coast.
Iquitarod 2009!
I won’t be there, but I will be in Fairbanks on Sunday for the fun. The Daily show will be there as well, so it should be a good time.
Sarah!
SHOW US THE MONEY!!!
Here’s another:
“$ARAH PALIN: ONWARD TO TWEETDOM.”
IJ: Ummm… what did they need the moving van for? The tanning bed and a few alphabet assignments from Piper’s Kindergarten year?
The china and silver?
The towels?
What did they need a whole van for????
4-7PM EDT. Got it!!!
Here are 2 more:
“It’s BOTH the crime and the cover-up.”
“It’s the money, honey!”
I’ll be there in spirit! Can’t wait for the pictures!
“So Long, Sarah. It’s been short but so long!”
It would be hilarious if loads of people had signs that just said …….
‘Yeah Yeah! Whatever!
and held them up while she was making her big Eva Peron speech.
And to be really, really childish………
‘See Ya! wouldn’t wanna be Ya!’
Jeez. this Irishgirl needs her sleep. Since last August I have been beset by Sarah Palin nightmares. Leader of the free world…what a joke!
A$$ kick to the tweeter from wasilla…
I wouldn’t let Sarah come within 50 feet of my hotdog!
One more for a possible sign:
“$arah, will it be AIP or GOP?”
Let’s not forget a sign for the new gov , Parnell don’t pull a Palin were watching you.
make sure to bring your ear plugs.she will talk and talk just to hear her own voice.
One last sign possibility:
“Sarah, Re-Tweet! Re-Tweet!”
think the reason for lack of frantic tweeeties today is that s.p. is at the salon getting mo’ extensions botox preening plucking
When that lady can no longer be poked and jabbed to appear at a distance the epitome of red neck fever.. she is over
She’s creepy
See HIllary now.. eh a wee old ..but if in her heyday or at least during the 80′s she could of been a bombshell.. now SHE is pretty! though I don’t really like her..she is too snarky.
Palin is just a crazy eyed goof that realized early on that stage props on her body help her alone.. sad world we live in
yay!!! akm that’s great. eat a hotdog or two. say adios to buttercup and get going on healthcare all in one beautiful day. yes!!
Anybody know of anything planned in Juneau? Not that anybody cares about us, but I feel like people here are going to be celebrating. Well, actually, considering that most of the tourists just LURVE Sarah, there will probably be quite a bit of disappointment too.
she is off again
So glad US Senate working to restore retirement benefits to our very deserving ATG members. More @ http://bit.ly/Gpiye2 minutes ago from web
just rent a sign machine and bring it with you and program two hour’s worth of messages. =)
Planned on an early night. Shut up Sarah Palin
poor sleep deprived irishgirl. poor baby… maybe you can take a nap next week…b
i’d give my left tattoed titty to be there…dang!
Out Of Staters Screen Door Party!! When does it start?
My initial though was to ignore her, wouldn’t be nice if she didn’t have an audience? but, if she is going to serve the hot dogs, by all means, show up and make her work…….She won’t be deluded by the crowd, We know she’ll be on the look out for those critical of her regime. I wonder if Hooten shows up if He will be asked to leave.
People i would like to see among the crowd:
Walt monegan, Mike Hooten, Andrew Halcro, Andre Macleod…..
signs:
Andre, the witch is dead.
GINO no mas.

RED shirts? Dontcha mean BLUE ones? What’d I miss? I thought we don’t “do” RED.
* ** * ** * ** * ** *
I only meant red shirts in the sense that others around would therefore assume you were Republican and genuinely wished to hear your new Republican governor speak, and would not try to silence you or chant over you. Heck, they might even join in with you.
Actually I really detest the Red vs. Blue thing. Although it can be useful in certain circumstances, ultimatelt I believe it only serves to keep us divided. And misprepresented. How many out there are ‘blue’ people who live in states continually refered to as ‘red’? And what about the yellows? And what about the people who are part blue and part red? Or part yellow and part red? Or part yellow and part blue?
Oh yeah, they’re the purples, the oranges and the greens.
I guess what I’m saying is we’re a colorful lot, and I just wish I could see that represented more often.
If you are going to the picnic , get a bottle of this……….

yellowdoggranny I’d give my right!!
$P should of passed the torch to Parnell today at the capitol and the picnic should of been a welcoming to the NEW Governor . $arah is nothing more then a quitter. IMO
Anyone know how to get a copy of SP’s official signed letter of resignation? Being an official state correspondence it should be available in the public record.
Somebody notice what naughty monkey shoes she decides to wear. Just curious.
@ Terpsichore #55
I guess what I’m saying is we’re a colorful lot, and I just wish I could see that represented more often.
——–
Exactly. Well said. Me, too.
Okay, ONE more sign slogan:
“If the Naughty Monkey $hoe Fits, You Must…uh…Quit!”
Pitbull Maverick turned into whining quitter. You betcha!
Remember when she said she wasn’t afraid to take on the old-boys and Washington DC, and reality is that a handful of “pathetic pj bloggers” has her running for cover.
Wasilla Mudpuppies – Guv Picnic in Wasilla today – IditaPark in Palin’s hometown of Wasilla from 4:30 to 7:30 p.m.
Just laughing…love you guys
My suggestions for signs…not funny…but accurate:
Quitters aren’t fighters.
Quitters aren’t leaders.
You can run but you can’t hide.
Good Riddance.
From #12–worthy of a repeat:
—-
Sarah Palin for President: 2012-2013 1/2.
Too funny!!!
AKM, would you please take your laptop or whatever and give us (out-of-staters) some posts, so we can sort of celebrate too vicariously? It would be oh so appreciated.
How about a picture of her jogging that says, “Fitter Quitter”?
Fitter Quitter Nitwitter Twitter
(too many -itters?)
Double Bonus Points for the picture of sarah pecking on her Blackberry.
Sorry I can’t be with you, visiting the grandchildren this weekend. Please carry some signs for me: “This is not the Fire David Letterman Rally”
“Palin willaccept commercial endorsements, beginning Monday, July 27, 2009″
“For Sale, Cheap: 2008 McCain/Palin Campaign Memorablia”
@Wake up, #69: love it!
Bu-bye!!
@mae, those are great, too!
How about a sign with her smiling that says, “Cash and all credit cards accepted.”
The “Bu-bye” should have a picture of lots of people waving or a screen door smacking her …..well you know.
Maybe those before (the preg announcement) and after pics of her and “Shape-shifter Grifter”
Oh I hope those of you who are at the parties or her picnic take pictures of the signs. Please, please, please!!
Oh, one more slogan?
“Sarah, it’s Quitting Time!”

love it!
re the ATG members – isn’t that the bill that SP was late in signing, and that’s why they had a stretch without the checks? So nice that now she’s for it.
I’ve mentioned it before & I’ll say it again, I LOVE reading your comments. Hilarious and definitely smile worthy. Keep it up! Pics and posts from the ‘screen door parties’ would be great! Thanks!
let’s all sing “happy trials to you, ’til we meet again (in court)…”
MSNBC just mentioned the picnics
C. Rock: The twidiot strikes again. Her latest and greatest tweet seems to imply that Palin supports a ‘socialist’ program? Someone needs to remind her what her political philosophy is, lol.
I would love to be there with a sign saying “Sarah’s Twitters = Lies” just so she knows that we’re out here disbelieving everything she says.
When will she stop calling herself AKGOV– or will she even stop?
From newsminer.com:
“Typical picnic fare will be spread out at Pioneer Park from noon to 3 p.m., with Palin and Parnell expected to take a turn serving food, wandering the park and visiting with constituents.
At 3 p.m., focus will shift to a stage on the lawn in front of the riverboat S.S. Nenana, the “Queen of the Yukon,” that traveled Alaska waters between 1933 and 1954. Palin is scheduled to make some remarks and officially resign her post, which she’s held for two years and seven months. Her family is expected to join her.
Pioneer Park staff are hoping advisers will ask Palin to set the Naughty Monkey pumps aside in favor of sensible shoes more suited to slick riverboat floors and stairs.”
Maybe she’ll change out of the red monkeys and into sensible shoes, right there on stage! Keep your fingers crossed gang!
and the latest:
http://newsminer.com/news/2009/jul/22/sundays-governors-picnic-expected-bring-crowds-nat/?print
Sounds like she has already begun bidding adieu to to her subjects, culminating in her big speech and the passing of the crown on Saturday.
Wishing I could be a fly on her beehive!
Pictures PLEASE!
“I also too accept PayPal!”
Re: red vs. blue shirts, I find it hard to imagine wearing either color since they’re big colors of opposite gangs in most parts of my state, California. In fact, a poor Staples employee got beat up in my town last year because of his red shirt. Many public schools have pseudo-uniforms (they prescribe the colors and types of shirts, pants, skirts, etc. that kids can wear, usually solid color shirts and khakis) and they don’t allow blue OR red.
just a farmer““sweet.
Is the picnic on Sunday or Saturday?
Based on the idea of mae lewis above… how about…
” David Letterman says Best Wishes”
” David Letterman says THANKS ” (… or says Thanks for the ratings)
” Best regards from David Letterman”
” Warm Wishes-David Letterman”
” Good Luck-David Letterman”
” YOU made the Letterman Top 10″
ANY sign with Letterman will get that sour-puss smile.
Or Something about ” Our Gov. has ‘ Gone fishin’ ”
” Quit the Job- Gone fishin ”
And the sign attached/ held up or attached to a ‘ fishin pole ‘.
Ironic… they wanted Letterman to get fired.
He’s only gotten MORE popular and Palin has QUIT.
LOL!
Sign:
“Sarah, does this mean Dave won?”
Or the word “twitter” in that font they use, only it says “quitter” instead
Oddly I’ll have a red vest on, but mine says SEARCH TEAM on the back. So if you need real help look for the men and women in big bulky uncomfortable looking (and are) red vests with radios.
Don’t forget this is a happy weekend (though some there may be sad) so play nice, as Johnny Cash said “momma said to leave your guns at home, don’t bring your guns to town!”
It looks like this http://nodependenciesnologo.wordpress.com/2008/02/28/the-twitter-logo-or-is-it/
I wish I could be there with you Alaskans to bid her Adieu but I live in the lower 48′s. I hope you guys have big signs letting her know how you feel.
Can you imagine her face if there is a huge crowd with humorous Anti-Palin signs?
Some of those signs should be painted on mock-ups of screen doors. Hat tip to the row house residents of the south and east of the City of Baltimore. They always paint their screens. Makes the house more private. Most have beautiful scenes but I have seen the occasional political door.
Signage/t-shirts…………
The Twitta Quitta from Wasilla
We Can’t Miss You If You Won’t Go Away
While I’m highly tempted to attend, I think I’d rather spend my precious weekend enjoying our brief Alaskan summer.
Props to those of you who can make it, though. Mudflats represents!

And maybe alternately or in between playing ABBA’s ” Money..Money.. Money”….. so people can dance as well.
(Not sure $arah Fans probably wouldn’t even get the joke- no sense of humor)
Any kind of $igns should have big green dollar $igns on them as well.
Maybe ” $arah $mile “… or “$arah WHO”… all surrounded with green dollar signs.
Hope we see Brian there. He may have to camouflage since some people there might like moose dogs.

Kerry And Boxer Challenge Palin To Debate
By Barbara Boxer and John F. Kerry
Friday, July 24, 2009
Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin put the global warming debate front and center last week with a plea to avoid the “personality-driven political gossip of the day” and focus more “on the gravity of . . . challenges” facing our country.
http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2009/07/23/AR2009072302633.html
Advertise this on a sign as if it is REALLY going to happen. Just pick your own date and cheer her on as if she is going to do this.
Get the crowd ginned up……yeah you go Sarah……you show ‘em!!
It really feels like an extra Independence Day!
How about:
Troopergate: $187,797
Special Session: $100,000+
Freedom from Sarah: Priceless!
(I couldn’t find a good estimate for the special session–also couldn’t decide if the $75k Branchflower Report should be on there).
Everyone who lives in Alaska: please promise you will have signs with the slogans I see here at the picnic. They are so funny and the press will love them and she will hate them!1
If the slogans are clever enough, even FOX won’t be able to ignore you.
Please Please PLEASE!!

“FAIRBANKS — Organizers of the annual governor’s picnic are anticipating a crowd of 5,000 and an onslaught of national media on Sunday… Palin also is expected to attend picnics in Mat-Su on Friday evening and in Anchorage on Saturday afternoon, Palin spokeswoman Sharon Leighow said.”

Hundreds of Qs
Maybe a couple of “Q is for Quitter”
and Tee shirts with Q
==========================
For Python fans…
Remember “the castle AAAAAARRRRrrrrgggggg…… ?”
Sarah Palin
is a Qui….
Okay that last one is out there …
samper–the trampoline and the tanning bed. Apparently the bouy swing got left…
JuneauMissesAnchorage–haven’t heard of anything being planned, though maybe I’ll have a drink in the afternoon (well before my evening game!).
Can she really DRAW a 5000 crowd in Fairbanks?
C. Rock–oh, puuuleeeze, like either one of them is actually in the CAPITAL!?!
ds55–Wasilly picknic today (Friday), Anchortown picnic Saturday, Squarebanks picnic and grand passing of the baton Sunday…
Any word on national coverage of the picnics? If Norah O is there, perhaps she’ll suffer through the weekend and report on MSNBC?
If anyone from out of state who is so inclined to see a “visual” of the Delaney Park Strip where the Governors Picnic will be tomorrow, google 932 W. 10th Ave. Anchorage, Alaska. Click on “Street View” and use the “hand” to move the picture around the neighborhood. The park is several blocks long, the section near I Street (westend) is where many outdoor public functions are held. (The eastend has tennis courts and softball fields, the 200-300 block.)

I cant take this anymore. This should NOT be about her her her the QUITTER.I guess Parnell is chopped liver. $arah the failure gets a party. Pathetic

ds55,
A farce ti’ll the very end, a quitter has not been more celebrated.
Another sign suggestion:
“OUR STATE ATTORNEYS WILL HAVE NOTHING TO DO WITH SARAH GONE!”
or, to be paired with the old “Where’s Sarah” buttons. The other one should read:
“Who cares”
or
“Sarah who?”
I think you should turn the picnic blue, too. Wear blue to bid Adieu to your governor…

CNN’s Jack Cafferty’s blog asks the quesiton: Is Palin Still Relevant? Submit your comments! http://caffertyfile.blogs.cnn.com/2009/07/24/is-palin-still-relevant/
so far, I am the only one that answered him! Here is what I said:
“If a mosquito is flying around your head and you cannot swat it away or stop it’s annoying buzz, is IT still relevant?”
Sure you want to have a party with Sarah?
If I don’t hear some rumbling news by tonight, I’ll be away from the tubes until Monday. No more GINO!
For those of you who, like me, have some years behind them: “I have survived damned near everything…including Sarah!”
Wonder if Bristol will attend any of the picnics ??
Just like Geraldine Ferraro is still relevant. Sure. Mm-hmm.
OK, all this screen door stuff and now I can’t get the song out of my mind.
“Don’t let the screen door hit you .. on the way out
Don’tcha drown when your dreamboat drags[?] up to the ground”
Who wants to play trivial pursuit? Name the song and the band.
As a prize, I’ll give AK a new governor starting Monday.
(Hey, I never said it couldn’t be a booby prize).
Terpsichore–(Hey, I never said it couldn’t be a booby prize).
Isn’t that the one we’re getting rid of?
And since Gov. Rick Perry could not be there in person to say goodbye , he has sent this video :
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I4tWZNxnABk
I used to go to adn.com first thing in the morning, now I go to mudflats. It is definately the most informed up to date site on Alaska politics, specifically Palin. I hate what she has done to put Alaska in the spotlight, embarassing to say the least. However, I do think that the govs picnics are more for the swearing in of Parnell and he should have the media’s attention rather than Palin. I am sure Palin would not like second billing to Parnell even at this event.
Are State funds paying for this goodbye party?
Speaking of David Letterman……A while ago I saw/heard a commercial for tonight’s show. He is having Amy Poehler and I think she is doing 10 things heard in Sarah Palin’s resignation speech —– or, something like that. At least I think I heard that.
Should be fun!
Lori in Los Angeles…excellent post on Cafferty! I posted too but mine is in moderation limbo. I said: “Of course she’s relevant as the poster girl for the “I’m a victim of the MSM” campaign being launched by the GOP”…
I read through the comments that are posted and must say that Ms Palin doesn’t seem to have many fans in the crowd.
Conway Twitty (hehe Twitter-Twitty) “Smoke From a Distant Fire”
You left me here on your way to paradise
You pulled the tail right out from under my life
And so where you goin’ to I knew when you came home last night
But your eyes had a mist from the smoke of a distant fire
Lord I was stung should have seen it a long time ago
When I realized the reality gave me a roll
If things are the same then explain why your kiss is so cold
And that mist in your eyes feels like rain on the fire of my soul
This lyin’ and cryin’ upsettin’ and gettin’ nowhere
It don’t stack up so slack up and pack up I just don’t care
Don’t let the screen door hit you on your way out
Don’t you drown when your dream boat runs onto the ground
I’d just like to know do you love him or just making time
By filling his glass with your fast flowing bitter-sweet lies
But he’ll face the after taste when you come home late some night
With your eyes all a mist from the smoke of a distant fire
Girl your eyes have a mist from the smoke of a distant fire
(Your eyes have a mist from the smoke of a distant fire)

Crossing Bridges to Nowhere Since 2006
well if you are going to attend the abortion party, what about bringing a flip-flop and waving it as she speak? what about attaching the flop on a stick and write one of her gates on it?
God, I’m fuming.
THANKS, but NO thanks.
throw the flipflops at her
One more for the sign brigade:
Sarah Palin–a quitbull with lip schtick
Wish I could be there–courage, y’all.
I am so sorry I can’t be there for this great event, I will be toasting our transition from my class reunion in Colorado. Yahoo!!
Sarah Palin: Flip-flopping to Nowhere
Here’s one sign that Palin would HATE:
YES SHE CAN’T!
LibertyLover–I think so, but I’m not sure. They happen every year…

Oh, I was thinking that it might be nice to hit her with another Ethics complaint on her way out… make it an even 20…
Forever Anonymous, I am fuming too – also. I like the idea of writing down one of her “gates” on the bottom of each flip-flop (gates can be found at palingates blog if you do not remember them all). If a group is going, they can be the “flip flops” group – so have about 10 people and 20 flip flops with wording on bottoms. If that happened, MSM would have to notice it and show it on National tv.
Watching tv and reading blogs today, this whole thing seems to be turning into a religious war – with Evangelicals supporting Scarah, exclaiming their Godliness while spewing intolerance and hate.
Yeah, rainning flip-flops when she STFU.
If I could be there…my sign would say:
$ talks
so
$arah walks
After reading a comment on the Open Thread about the park for the picnic
“Guv Picnic today at IditaPark in Palin’s hometown of Wasilla from 4:30 to 7:30 p.m.”
A sign for Todd & $arah ” Todd.. will you be in the IQUITAROD Race ”
Or just ” Todd Palin IQUITaRod- 2010″
So long Sarah. You’re future’s so bright, you gotta wear shades.
OMG – Our brilliant comments did NOT make the cut on CNN – shows what they know, humph.
As for picnic – maybe everyone should turn their backs when she speaks.
If brave, MOON HER.
Dude looks like a grifter!
Dang, wish I could be in Fairbanks on Sunday!!! I’ll have to settle for Pittsburgh on 16 August.
@Lori, mine comment made it on Jack Cafferty’s page (I post under a different name)! So thanks for telling us about it! Woohoo!
oops, should be “my comment”…sorry for the typos, everyone. Just an old geezer (sob)…
@writing from alaska:
Where is your class reunion? I’m in Denver-
Another question…
Will she show up for one of this picnics in Her High School Prom dress…
Because she acts like she never left… and thinks she is ‘ Queen of the Ball’.
And most of her Cabinet ( supporters )are her High School Friends so it would be like a High School Reunion as well.
Which means $arah would once again be wearing a BIG A s$ corsage.
Hey Sarah–Levi’s talking…and talking…and talking.
Lori!!!!! yes turning her back as she speaks is the least people could in lieu of rotten tomatoes.
“I’m here just for the food”
“Dude is the silent grifter”
“Dude is on mute”
Mudpups pin a flip flop on for your corsage .
I am worried! Will Megamouth still have a job? Don’t forget some of her unforgetable quotes for your signs.
Who wants gum?
Sarah flops, give her a flip.
I want some gum .Thanks for asking.
LibertyLover and Lori in Los Angeles–there are actually at least 22 ethics things already: http://threebrain.blogspot.com/2009/07/its-21-ethics-complaints-not-18-but.html
are state funds paying for the party.. YOU BETCHA!!
I hope she is making LOTS of cookies and not making Piper do all of the work…I smell Arctic Cat poop….She HAD to disclose that contractual relationship as Gov. As a citizen she only has to tell the IRS…..Or explain to the IRS……!

The correct answer to “Who wants gum?” is “I do, I do”…That was 25 years ago for Trident gum….Is she done tweeeting yet? I sure hope not. Its too much fun dissecting the salad du jour.
Now, “Who wants gum?”
It’s easy as pie to say goodbye
To the gov who always lied
I don’t care where, just not here
The Palin Twit will reside!
I do, I do!
I do, I do (also too!)
I do I do!!
I’ve decided I’m going to visit the Wasilla picnic. It is from 4:30 to 7;30 this afternoon/evening. Bringing my camera.
iIve gotta go over to the MSB building in Palmer 1st & drop off some water quality sampling kits from our water quality monitoring. Then I’ll head over to Wasilla Wonderland, playing the march I wrote for the park’s dedication, which Sarah boycotted back in 1996.
Here’s the march:

Honesty in Government, 102: Actually Dave’s Thanks to Sarah is Thanks for the Great Comedy Material- the gift that keeps on giving. His writers were worried after Bush left office that they wouldn’t have any more good material. So, Thank You Sarah!
Sometimes Dave doesn’t have to say anything at all. Example: “I heard that they filed another ethics complaint against the Governor of Alaska, Sarah Palin.” Long long pause. Looks in camera and smirks, “I’m not gonna touch that one!”
McCain’s canceling, Larry Craig’s foot-tapping, Gov.Sanford’s Appalachian Trail, Gov.Spitzer, Bernie Madoff, (please add your own favorites), and of course, Sarah Palin, these public figures will live on in Letterman’s jokes and reruns. Comedy Gold!
I do, I do. I’ll have what sjk is having. (my mood is improving)

Another victory for my family/my admin/the people of AK; but the wins come @ great cost. Will link to presser when posted.
OT: Michelob Porter is pretty good for an AB product. The lanai and pool and the puppy and the sunset and I feel good, and I swear I didnt know a thing about the trust, even the part that says only I can name the next trustee. Has anyone seen a white cat with a few black spots?
Will they stream the “last picnic?

sorry if I missed any of you but who’s going to be in Wasilla in 45 minutes for the gov picnic here?
Anyone?
WHAT? Another “WIN”???
What does she “win”, really????
The knowledge that everyone in the country is on to her and that she’s darn lucky to have the PB in her back pocket?
Wow… which one is this? Better not be Andree’s!
And wasn’t someone filing one today just for giggles?
The bloggers know, sarah.
“The Last Picnic”…….Starring the iconic twitterquitterbullshitter surrounded by her minions. The ultimate sacrifice. Then she is finally crucified by Katie and the MSM. When is the ressurection scheduled? Should we ask Meg?
I see Phil will be there playing in the band but anyone else? I’m taking camera and will be wearing a purple shirt….hope to meet some other mudpups there. (oh, talking about the wasilla picnic, I’m only 1.5 miles from Iditapark so will probably walk there to avoid the traffic.)
Any other Wasilla mudpups going?
sorry , I was OT. Thought I was on the open thread…. taking complaint dismissal over there.
Yikes, read the press release at the state website.
excerpt:
Another Ethics Complaint Dismissed
July 24, 2009, Anchorage, Alaska – The Personnel Board has announced that another ethics complaint against Governor Sarah Palin has been dismissed….. “Andree McLeod has failed to prevail on any of the ethics complaints she has filed against the governor,” said Mike Nizich, Palin’s chief of staff. “It appears her agenda is clear – she’s abusing the ethics laws to harass public officials.”
antiAnti – oh boy, scarah will be gloating all night via her tweets re the dismissal of that complaint. She will complain about the “costs,” and I doubt it costs anything when dismissed that quickly. More $ will roll in to the AK Fund Trust for poor, victimized queen. Makes me ill. She is what is called a “sore winner” when it comes to dismissed complaints – no class or adult behavior at all. And NEVER a twitter or apology when she is found of wrong-doing.
BARFING UNCONTROLLABLY!!!!!
July 24, 2009, Anchorage, Alaska – The Personnel Board has announced that another ethics complaint against Governor Sarah Palin has been dismissed.
The complaint, the sixth filed by Anchorage resident Andree McLeod, accused the governor of violating the Ethics Act by receiving her salary while campaigning for vice president. The accusation, lodged Monday, was dismissed as legally flawed and factually devoid of merit.
Governor Palin remained on duty, conducted state business, and communicated with her staff and her constituents. “Andree McLeod has failed to prevail on any of the ethics complaints she has filed against the governor,” said Mike Nizich, Palin’s chief of staff. “It appears her agenda is clear – she’s abusing the ethics laws to harass public officials.”
================
The last sentence states CLEARLY that Palin is an EFFING WHINER AND CRY BABY.
Further, how is this about “her family/admin”? It’s all about HER, collecting a salary while away for 2 months!
FACTUALLY DEVOID OF MERIT? ARE THEY EFFING KIDDING ME????? That woman was OUT OF STATE for 2 months, should have handed control over to Gov Light and SHOULD NOT HAVE RECEIVED A SALARY for tweeting a couple of things to her stupid “staff” in AK. To spend an hour or so on Gov’ing is NOT worthy of a paycheck!
LEGALLY FLAWED? How so? How is it that a common citizen, while making a clear point, if not in LEGALESE, has to hire attorneys to file for them??????
I swear, you guys… She is DAMN lucky I can’t drive into Anch or Fbx or whereever the he!! the Farewell Tour is going.
I am LIVID!!!!!!
Seriously… MORE RUM!
AK PetMom – please let us know how it goes – I guess it would be dangerous to voice dissent or carry a protest sign in her hometown, huh?
Keep it on topic, people. Winning is not for Quitters.
(thanks for the update, but lets ignore her red herrings)
Go on Sarah, tweet until u drop!
Serious Sign topic:
“People Died While Sarah Lied”
AKpetmom- change the shirt, don’t give yourself away.
if this was already mentioned…sorry. Chris Mathews re: palin’s last day, said today that palin will be “turned loose” this Sunday. HA! and ruh-roh.
Man, it must be nice to be Sarah Palin. She does whatever she wants, and she’s going to make a huge pile of money. I wish I had the luxury of quitting a demanding job. I wish people would do my hair and makeup and other people would send in money so I didn’t have to spend mine.
I’m exhausted, I’m in the middle of major dental work that is painful and putting me in debt, and absolutely no one will be making a website for me to praise me every day and recruit others to praise me. Nice life you have there, Sarah. Enjoy.
Does Palin’s Alaska fund trust (who came up with that name!) pay for the hot dogs?
“People Died While Sarah Lied”
Professor Geezer- serious hug to you and all mudpuppies.
No, I believe the costs for the picnics are paid for by the State, when that $ could be used for police and teachers and whatever else she said the costs to the Dept. of Law could have been used for instead of investigating the ethics stuff…
Samper – you said how I feel!!! I am on antibiotics for a wicked cough/upper respitory thing, so I can’t even drink the rum. But if I remember correctly, back when this one was filed some legally minded mud pups suggested that this one might not make the cut for those reasons. I could be wrong, and am too tired to check the archives.
She is toast. her appeal is a known quantity. she has a lock on 15-20% of America, and that is scary. Beyond that she can muster another 10% maybe. Mitter will be a salmon slayer. her fund raising ability is WAY overestimated by the MSM. The GOP knows. The DEMS know….rush and beck and hannity are all she has. if she doesnt get indicted she will fade away. tooooo much baggage to keep track of and I’m sure the McCain (Meghan, please write a book) folks made sure she wouldnt be a problem again…JMHOI!
I’m headed out and will take pics; I feel bad because many others on this website are proactive, and hey, I’m only 1.5 miles away from the event. Okay, I’ll not wear the purple shirt! Oh heck, I’m dressed and am wearing the purple shirt. I’m just anxious to see how many are like us (the mudpuppies) and how many are saraphiles.
I have a blog and a flicker so I really will take photos and hopefully video and post those to you to share. This is my chance to not just sit around and comment as I should really give you guys some insight if I can.
Did I tell you I have the flu? For two days now….my brother had the swine flu a few weeks ago but I think mine is more garden variety. Nothing like a good dose of Thera Flu to give you the courage to attend an event.
akpetmom, I hope there is some chicken soup there for you. with matzoh balls! or not…Feel better.
Ok AKpetmom- take holy water with you and make sure to sneeze if near palinbots…..just in case. Take care.
Although ALL the suggestions were hilarious, these are my top 10 votes for sign-suggestions (so far)
Sarah Palin for President: 2012 – 2013 1/2!
Buh-Bye Sarah!

Bye, bye, American pie. …. And this will be the day that I die (politically).
We have left out an important group who should be included in the goodbyes:

Conway Twitty (hehe Twitter-Twitty) �Smoke From a Distant Fire�
* ** * ** ** * ** *
Really? Well, ya learn something new everyday!
I must have first heard a cover of that song. I was thinking of a kickin’ version of it by the Sanford-Townsend Band from the 70s.
Almost jazzy, soprano sax, a little Hammond B3.
For those of you just coming into the conversation, the song “Smoke from a Distant Fire” – whether sung by Conway Twitty or the guys from the Sanford-Townsend Band – has this line:
“Don’t let the screen door hit you .. on the way out”.
And it’s been going through my head all day.
You can hear a little of it here.
http://www.artistdirect.com/nad/window/media/page/0,,939220-209666,00.html
I wonder if she’s on the phone right now “correcting” what they say in this bit…doesn’t make her look good at all….oh, poor baby…love what stupid Arnold Schwarzeneggar says about her being a quitter! And then “Only today …said…there is probably cause to believe that Palin was in violation of ethics laws…” and they put her weird twitter up on the screen.
http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/21134540/vp/32132671#32132671
haha Screen Door Parties were mentioned on KO show from the HuffPo guy.
Feel Better, PetMom!
SP isn’t worth getting worse over.
Here’s some homemade chicken soup for ya!
I just had a “friend” call me and tell me that Daniels has admitted to leaking his report on AFT. Said it was on NBC News. I couldn’t find any info. Anybody else hear this one or was my Rep friend wearing his tinfoil hat.
Can’t attend (Outside), but with you in spirit. Dress in cute pajamas, with “Anonymous” in bold marker on the back! (Or pj bottoms, with “ANONYMOUS” on your T-shirt.) Sign: Que $arah Sera! Bu-bye, Special Needs Governor!
“If I die, I die”
You didn’t, Yu’re just a Quitter.
“If I die, I die”
What if you lied?
“If I die, I die”
Make that your last tweet!
Oye, Oye Lt. Gov. Parnell hereby certifies that: Alleged Gov. Sarah Palin aka GINO is morally, ethically, politically ….undeniably…. dead.

Do I ever wish I was there with all of you. But I will be there in spirit. I would have one sign made up with the slogan,
In America, anybody may become president. Well, anyone but Sarah.
Hope you feel better soon AKPetmom.
I just read that Americans “don’t trust” the govt to have any role in their health care. No …. they would rather have profit-making corporations making those decisions. [sigh]
LilyF@231
I put your post on the new thread “Quittin Time” because I want everyone to email The Nightly News and ask them to make a correction and an apology to Ms Chapman regarding that twitter defamation!
I’ll be with you in spirit. Can’t wait to hear all about it!
Lilyf: Palin has to lie all day long, every day. She must always be wrought up by some slight, paranoid, the works. I also hate that she seems to just skate through collecting cash, but inside, she is like those pictures of smokers lungs. In Buddhism, I might refer to her as the Hungry Ghost. Never content, never can sleep.

Like my ol’ Granny used to say , “Don’t let the door hit ya where the good Lord split ya”
AKPETMOM-
Please cough on Sarah for us : )
Have fun. Personally I’d rather have a root canal.
You guys are funny because my spouse last night told me to cough in my hand and then shake Sarah’s if I had the opportunity. I was going to post that earlier but I didn’t know if anyone would find it funny….at any rate…
I have returned from the great Wasilla Governor’s picnic, and no, I didn’t get to touch her nor did I eat the hot dogs, but I did get some photos and some video(which I am uploading and editing right now)
I got some photos of the lovely Bristol and Tripp and Trigg and Ivy Frye hangin’ out w/the Palin Girls.
God, I felt so “TMZ” trying to be inconspicuous taking my photos…at any rate I am uploading and will give you guys links to video and photos.
Ya know, I did see some women in purple shirts there as well but the two that I saw w/ purple shirts, well, one was a tank top covered in sequins, and the other was a purple cowboy shirt w/ purple suede fringe. Those people were not me! (not that I’m against sequins or fringe, they both have their place but at a picnic, not so sure about that…)
AKPetMom -
Thanks for the report and we patiently await the pictures.
Those pictures ready yet ??
AKPetMom
Glad you made it home and hope you are feeling ok. I read your earlier post that you have the flu. How can we see your pictures? Did Palin make a speech? How many peeps were there?
I do hope you feel better. The flu is the worst!
I hope that AKM doesn’t mind but I am uploading photos to flickr as I type this and will put the videos on my youtube acct. I will send links shortly….
Funny thing, I didn’t see first dude but Joe Schmidt, ya know, the guy that turned down the Lt. Gov job was there serving hot dogs with other AK political types. Guess even though he said he didn’t want to be Lt. Gov he still has to serve weenies to the people!
Kind of funny….
Sarah doesn’t speachify at the Guv’s picnics – just serves hamburgers. Although I’m sure she will have her 15 minutes at Fbx.
Here’s my flickr from the picnic for those of you that have hung in there. If you view it as slideshow you won’t be able to see photo descriptions, just so you know. Nothing to exciting, but I went I saw and I recorded. Will get my videos up on youtube in approx. 30 minutes.
http://www.flickr.com/photos/36495279@N03/
Thank you AKPetmom! So, did you get any bad looks when you were phototaking?
So, wonder how much the most recent ethics complaint cost to have it dismissed. State received it on Monday and dismissed on Friday. Still would like to see the breakdown on over 1/2 a million in legal fees for ethics complaints. Sarah had to blame someone or something for being a quitter. I think the public and donaters to her defense fund especially should be able to view the breakdown of these legal fees.

I’ll be there in blue, looking for Mudflatters!
If you get a chance, go to YouTube & look for Hockey Mom For Obama Sarah Palin Resignation Song: I Feel Quitty. (This is the same singer who sang “Don’t Speak For Me Sarah Palin” before the election.) Her accompanist (husband?) plays piano wearing fake moose antlers. In her Quitty performance, she’s kind of Palined her hair & is wearing glasses. She sings beautifully, the song is clever, and she’s posted the lyrics onscreen. I’d post the link here if I knew how. Health, peace, and goodnight. Have fun tomorrow. I’ll wear my favorite silk pajamas in solidarity!
@ AKPetMom THANKS for getting out of your sickbed and giving us pictures! I hope you’ll feel better soon. Looks like a nice community picnic, much easier to have a sense of the size after seeing.
BTW, those other pics at your flickr site are STUNNING scenery! Again thx!
AKpetmom- thank you for the pictures, was that a good turn out for a quitter’s farewell?………….Take care.

What is going on in Fairbanks? Will me and my sweetie and dogs be the only Mudpuppies there? How will we know each other? Are signs allowed, since the event is on private land? With the construction going on, there is very little parking available and no sidewalks on the streets upon which we could gather for an alternative send-off festivity.
My understanding is that there will be people there with signs and lots of national media. And no, you won’t be the only Mudpuppy there!
