Good morning Mudflatters! You’ve slept off the turkey, you’ve crammed yourself into your pants, you’ve gone to Sears at 3am to get a $5 washing machine, you’ve downed your weekly allotment of coffee, and you’ve settled in to check the cyber-world and see what’s going on. News of the ex-gov perhaps? Rush Limbaugh spouting off again? [...]

Happy Black Friday! Chat away.

Dear Mudflatters, I love Thanksgiving.  I think it’s my favorite holiday.  One of the main reasons is that there is no gift buying involved.  It becomes necessary to show appreciation and gratitude using other means.  Sometimes it comes in the form of an invitation to dinner, sometimes it comes in the form of a toast, or [...]

Well, the next episode of Moore Up North is in the can.  This week Shannyn Moore talks turkey with Tank Jones!  Tank is the guy you have to get through to get to Levi Johnston.  He dishes about Levi’s Playgirl photo shoot, and shares his unique perspective on his current situation. And in the spirit [...]

(Cracks knuckles and rubs palms together briskly) We are about to knock off the last agonizing chapter of the hardcover $19.97 bologna sandwich that some rogue calls a book. Ready?  Let’s go. Page 383 The drive to Fairbanks for the abdication ceremony was “magical”. The motor home was “filled with coffee.” A bunch of local [...]

Last time it was two DJs from Montreal who cooked up a prank that had Sarah Palin VP candidate on the phone with someone she thought was French President Nicholas Sarkozy. Not so, much to the amusement of many. This time it’s comedian Mary Walsh in her character ‘Marg Delahunty’ that got the last laugh.  She [...]

I’m looking forward to co-hosting Studio 1080 this afternoon with Kathy Phillips!  You can catch the show on 1080am KUDO in Anchorage, or stream it on the web at kudo1080.com from 3:00-4:00 Alaska time (7-8pm Eastern 4-5 Pacific) There is a lot to talk about today, and it should be a fun show!  Will Sarah [...]

We’ve been reading transcripts of her speeches, and her Tweets for months now.  A few of us have even been reading the ultimate mind-sucking tome Going Rogue.  It’s time to test yourself.  Do you have the stuff?  Can you write meandering, self-absorbed ponderings about local flora and fauna of Alaska?  Can you take us down [...]

This is a picture I took in Wasilla the week Sarah Palin was selected as John McCain’s running mate. It seemed appropriate somehow back then, but now even more so, because I am finished with Going Rogue. I read the whole thing cover to cover.  I have done it, and I still live and breathe. [...]

Looks like somebody has made a decision about who to crawl into bed with, while trying to get elected governor all by himself. “Clearly the federal government is taking away our freedoms and our opportunities for a strong-growing economy,” Alaska’s Sean Parnell said in an interview. “We’re fighting them off every day that I’m governor.” [...]

Here’s a quick “boots on the ground” report from Mudflatter barracuda78 who attended the demonstration outside the Sarah Palin book signing event in Rochester, NY. Anyone else out there attending an event, don’t forget to email pictures and write-ups! Thanks barracuda78! Now that’s a barracuda we can believe in! *wink*  More to come soon. ********************* [...]

The second-to-last chapter.  There is light at the end of this long long tunnel.  It reminds me of the escape scene from Shawshank Redemption.  Only I’m not yet to the other end of the pipe… Page 341 Everyone wanted her to run for Senate against Lisa Murkowski who was vulnerable because she got the job [...]

This is my brain on Rogue.  Any questions? I have finished Chapter 5 of Going Rogue, also known as The Thumpin’.  I feel like my entire central nervous system has had a thumpin’.  And the digestive system too.  Also.  I cannot bring myself to proofread my post tonight, so it will go up tomorrow morning. [...]

Governor Girl Agoniste By Donald Craig Mitchell Last July in Fairbanks, with Todd smiling at her side and Piper sitting in her lap, Sarah Palin watched Lieutenant Governor Sean Parnell take the oath to fill out her term in office as Governor of Alaska. Then she vanished. For the past four months the Forty-Ninth State [...]
