Tiptoeing Through the Muck of Alaskan Politics

Tea Time With Sarah.

OK, everyone ready?  First, you’ll need to sign in to PJTV.com.  That’s Pajamas TV, the conservative live stream host for the Tea Pary Convention featuring the infamous Facebook sensation, Sarah Palin.  Or, you can check out the whole thing on Fox.

Once you’ve registered, or tuned in on the TeeVee, pull up your Barca-lounger, pop a cold one, find some salted nuts and strap yourself in.  It’s Tea Party time!  Everyone’s favorite blogger, Sarah Palin will appear at 5pm Alaska time, 6pm Pacific and 9pm Eastern, and we’ll all get to hear what a $100,000 speech sounds like.

I tuned in yesterday, and decided I’d listen as long as I could possibly stand it – like holding your hand over a candle flame. 

But that said, I did manage to learn a few things.

1)  I learned that the Tea Partiers have managed to find an African-American woman to run for congress.  I have also learned that she, like so many of her fellow TPers is number challenged.  She talked about the million man march (to lukewarm applause) and claimed there were actually TWO million people there, despite the claims of the media that there were less than 1 million.  I also learned that she is “tired of all the shuckin’ and jivin’” going on in Washington.  I have a feeling she’s recently met with Michael Steele.

2) I learned that if you refer to the constitution as a “living document” in front of a room of 500 TPers, they will actually boo.

3) I learned a fun joke to tell at the water cooler on Monday.   What do God and Barack Obama have in common?  (I pause to let you think)  Give up?   A birth certificate!   No, I’m not kidding.

4) I learned that Jesus, unlike the living constitution, will get applauded wildly by a room of TPers.  This may be because he knew that “qualifications were essential to claim his kingship of the Jews” and so he had not one but TWO genealogies, and his birth was WELL documented.  One of his genealogies goes back to Abraham and the other one goes back to Adam himself.  “Tracing lineage to Adam was a big deal even back then.”

I’m still not sure why that’s a big deal, because if you believe Adam was the first man, then wouldn’t we ALL be able to claim our lineage back to him?  A question for another day.

5) I learned that even though they get that there are people in the room of every religion (are there?) that they just want to stop for a minute and talk about “the most important birth in history.”  Yes, that would be Jesus again. 

6)  I learned another great water cooler joke.

At a international medical conference that took place recently, doctors were all sharing their success stories with one another and a French MD says, “You know, medicine in my country is so advanced that we can take a kidney out of one man, put it in another and have him looking for work in six weeks.”

And not to be outdone, the German doctor says, “That is nothing, we can take a lung out of one person, put it in another and have him looking for work in 4 weeks.

And to that the Russia doctor says, “In my country, medicine is so advanced, that we can take half a heart out of a person put it in another and have him looking for work in two weeks.”

Then the American Physician gets up and he says, “You guys are way behind. We recently took a guy with no birth certificate, no brain, and put him in the white house and now half the country is looking for work.”

7.  I learned that World Net Daily is the only place I should be visiting online to get my news because they “live in that world of reality every day.”  (This is coming from the birth certificate guy)

8.  I learned that “the left” who likes to use the phrase “What a long strange trip it’s been” has “taken over Hollywood like it was Cuba or Venezuela.”

9.  I learned, on Sarah Palin Tea Pary Eve, that the movement is “proud to have distanced themselves from politicians that want to jump out in front of the parade.”

10.  And finally, I learned that I can last about 45 minutes without any kind of artificial support before I have to shut this stuff off.  I didn’t time it exactly because by the time I clicked off during a strange and grandiose rant by Andrew Breitbart, I had lost a little cognitive function and I forgot to check the clock.

But I’m ready to dive back in again.  Join along if you like, or be secure in knowing I’ll take one for the team if you’d rather be doing something more fun – like shoving bamboo under your nails, or eating glass.

*************************************************

The Palin pre-game show:

Interview with Tea Party Lady:

Sarah Palin is emotionally accessible.  Women relate to her emotionally. People relates to her. She field dresses moose.  Tea Partiers don’t like Democrats.  Joe Biden reminds her of her drunk uncle.  Obama doesn’t have star power anymore. This grassroots efforts has more coattails than Obama.  Feninists hate her because she’s feminine.  She’s like Princess Diana.  People drove for two miles. Now you have to have a certain last name and lots of money.  She’s not that at all. She’s down to earth and she’s real.  She messes up her sentences like everyone else, and I like that.

Guy from Examiner:

This movement is so big because people don’t feel alone. There are lots of people who haven’t drunk the Barack Obama Kool-Aid. This is a Center Right country, not a Barack Obama country. This is the third great awakening in this country and it’s not religious, it’s political.  It’s a movement from the bottom up.

1/3 of the people in the country think that socialism is important and 2/3 don’t.

*************Entering the “Hall”*******************

Hmm… The room is not very big.  It looks like 5 or 600 people.  A lot of cameras.

They are acting amazed and shocked that there are “so many people here.”  “And they paid, too!”  Ha.  The band is the one that played at the 9/12 event.  They’re playing the same song they played there.  “Musicians can be conservatives too even though it’s not a good career move for them in Hollywood.”

“You’ve got to come out of the closet for people to accept your lifestyle” she says about being conservative.

“What’s amazing is how many people have brought their children here today.”

They keep talking about how many kids are there, pointing out strollers, moms and kids, families, on and on.  They’ll all remember Sarah Palin when they grow up.  “It looks like the strategy of the right is to outbreed the left.”  Christian Conservatives and Muslims are the only groups maintaining or increasing their birth rate, according to the teabag lady.

The left’s organization and intensity has completely faded away and now it’s all on the right. If BO had just had more self-discipline and far-sightedness he could have had a successful presidency and cemented Democratic rule for a decade, but they couldn’t restrain themselves and we got Van Jones and the stimulus bill and Health Care, they’ve gotten their worst nightmare.

They were too arrogant.  If they had just been quiet and shoved everything through their second term it would have been a better strategy. 

 Andrew Breitbart:

Sarah Palin was the first person to tell us about the Death Panel! (cheering)

This person is so great in that she irks the right people the right way.  Everyone in this room knows that she’s accountable only to herself.  Even the Republican party cannot control her.

Now he’s griping about the political correctness stifling people.  Hmmm. Retarded, anyone?

Dissing CNN and The New York Times.

Here she is!

Enter Sarah Palin

All in brown.  Super screechy.

God Bless You!  Thank you so much x 4.  “I AM SO PROUD TO BE AN AMERICAN!  DO YOU LOVE YOUR FREEDOM?”

Honoring and saluting veterans.  She’s still proud to be American.  Gosh.  Happy Birthday Ronald Reagan. (He’s dead… does she not know?)  Home of good country music and southern barbeque.  Alaskan version of tea party is “iced tea.” (laughter)

Across the country just knowing that this is the movement….bla bla.  Revolution bla bla.

“REAL PEOPLE”  I knew she’d say that.  “Stand up and speak out for conservative principles.”

Shout out to Scott Brown.  (Cheers)

He was just a guy with a truck (and a centerfold) who wanted to do his part.

She actually just said “Chowda Revolution.”  Every Democrat in Massachusetts just slammed their heads on the table.  Bashing Obama, Pelosi and Emmanuel.  Obama found a way to make this all about George Bush. (cheering)

Stop blaming everyone else. (Because nobody blamed Clinton for 8 years, right?)

Advice to the left – Your agenda got you into this mess.  Obama/Pelosi/Reid agenda will leave us under the thumb of big government.  It’s “runnin’ out of time.”  Voters are sending a message in “good places” like Nevada, Connecticut, Colorado.

We have big problems. Tired of looking backwards.  The future looks good because if there’s hope in Massachusetts, there’s hope everywhere.

“Common sense conservative candidates” in 2010.

Despite what pundiNts want you to think…. (Argh.  No N!!!)

Faced five guys in the Alaska primary. We put ideas and experience out there for debate. Healthy process. May the best ideas and candidates win.

They are human. There’s no perfect candidate. They will disappoint. When they do, let them know but don’t sit it out. Put your faith in ideas.  It’s a ground up grass roots movement that is forcing both parties to change.  It’s bigger than a king or a queen or a charismatic guy with a teleprompter (she says looking at her notes)

(Is this over yet?)

Uneasy about national security. It’s not politicizing security to discuss concerns.  If you have to SAY it’s not politicizing…. it’s politicizing.  She’s rambling about spinning war terms.  You gotta call it like it is.  I have no idea what the hell she’s saying.  Oh, here we go.  Xmas day, the system did not work.  Terrorist Hell bent on killing innocent passengers.  This terrorist trained in Yemen.  Going through the whole story… ” The only thing that stopped him was a “Christmas miracle” and that’s not how the system is supposed to work.” OMG…

He was read his rights, lawyered up and used our constitutional right to remain silent.  Ah…it’s like the good old days with pallin around with terrorists.  (And isn’t he actually giving us information?  Real information?  Not the “I’ll tell you anything you want to know if you stop waterboarding me” kind?)

Terrorists destroying constitution.  Ooooo. She’s riled up and mad.  It’s the nassssty Palin.

Criticizing the mindset of treating these acts as crimes.  Afraid for her children because this is war.  We’re at war and we need a commander in chief and not a professor of law standing at the lectern.  Whoa. (wild applause and standing ovation)  It’s that same kind of misguided thinking that’s seen in the administration.  He spent a year reaching out to hostile regimes, writing letters to hostile dictators.  North Korea did NUKULAR testing.

(War, war, war, drum, drum, drum….)

The administration needs to change course.  Peace through strength, Ronald Reagan, bla bla.

It’s really amazing to hear her giving foreign policy advice.  It’s almost like she thinks she has foreign policy experience.  Oh, that’s right…. Russia.  “Time for more than tough talk.  Tired of hearing talk, talk, talk.  Tired of hearing the talk.” (YES, as a matter of fact, I am)

The problems we face in the “real world” require real solutions.  Stop blaming Bush. We can be conquered by ignoring our constitution. 

If they had their way, health care, student loans would be taken over by the government.  Banks, car companies.  Main St. vs. Wall Street. 

(I’m taking a break to rub my temples….)

Argh!  She’s citing Alaska and the “fat strings” attached to the stimulus money.  The strings that DIDN’T EXIST.  She rejected a tiny portion of the money and the legislature voted to take the money because it paid for WEATHERIZATION IN ALASKA.  Borrowed, printed up invented dollars out of nowhere?  Even in Alaska in a Republican controlled legislature, they took it.   (I bet the legislature loves THIS!  Tomatoes are flying at screens in Juneau.)

“How’s that hopey changey stuff workin’ out for ya?”

Slamming Biden.  Stimulus is wasteful.

“Seein’ those checks writte, did YOU feel very stimulated?”

List of broken promises is wrong.  Obama promised to end “sweetheart dills” but a Democrat donor got money.  “Is that hope? Nope! That’s not hope!”  (How many t-shirts will come from this?)

My computer froze for a minute.  It was nice.

I don’t know if I’m going to be able to make it.

Reagan. Disabled Children. God shedding grace. Best days yet to come. Tea Party Nation. Americans. From the bottom of my heart.  Millions and millions and millions of Americans. Power to the people. Applause.  God bless you tea partiers and God bless the USA.

************************************************************

Well, I guess we’re supposed to think she knows something about foreign policy.  And economics.

And we’re supposed to love screechy hate mongering as long as it comes in a pretty brown wrapper.

***********************************************************

Interview:

Now she’s saying that Todd chooses not to be a member of a party because he’s “too indpendent.”  Um. Actually he’s a non-partisan because being a registered secessionist didn’t look good when his wife was running for office.

He’s asked her what the “Palin plan” is.  She has no idea.  She was totally deer in the headlights.  Talkin about nothing, looking for a place to land, talkin, talkin.  Aha!  She finally landed on “free market principles” and now repeating security stuff.  “We win, they lose.”  Nice stragegy.  The Palin plan.  Wow. That was a train wreck of an answer.  And by the way, YOU lost.  WE won.  Just sayin.

Two words that scare liberals – “President Palin.”  Make that “Two words that scare sane people.”  Now they are chanting “Run Sarah, Run.”  And she said “God bless ‘em.”

First three things she’d tackle as President – Energy projects.  Spending cuts.  Don’t make promises about bipartisanship if they can’t be fulfilled.  Don’t fake it and pretend like you want to work with the other party. (Are you listening President Obama?!)   The distrust that is built makes us distrust everything coming out of Washington that makes us a less secure nation.

She has to go.

Yay!  But first,

“I will die for the people of America.”

She just said that.

And now she’s gone.

I think we just heard the first campaign speech for 2012.

    Gawd, you guys are tough. I horked up a sock just reading AKM’s flyover.

    “I am stupid and I like Palin because she don’t talk so good, either, like me, too.” No wonder intelligent Republicans are repulsed and sickened, it’s like being in the company of zombies.

    OK, I’m so very sorry, that’s an insult to zombies everywhere. I should have used the word “retarded.” Really, I’m truly sorry, you can all shuffle off now… Oh, hey! By the way, have you heard that there are delicious diseased brains worth eating at an event called a Teabaggers Convention? Yeah! Here’s how you get there… no, it’s OK, don’t thank me, you’re doing a public service. Go, Zombie Nation! Undead Rulz! Get’ em!

    Energy? Not to promise bi-partisanship? and ????

    Dear Sarah,
    At first I thought I was a REAL American. I live in a small town, I am a retired teacher, I love my country, I believe in the Constitution, I participate in town meetings. But now I’m not so sure.
    I am pro choice, I believe in gay marriage (keep government out of private business!)I support Obama’s policies on health care and world policy. I think we should take care of the weaker members of our country. I also think we should be willing to pay for it through more taxes, if necessary. Socialism is not a dirty word to me.
    I am basically an atheist who is adamant about the separation of church and state.
    So I don’t think that God is necessarily on “our side” or that we deserve divine intervention.
    I do support the troops, but I don’t think we should have the “us” vs “them” mentality.
    So, what do you think? Am I still a REAL American?

    I haven’t had time to read all the comments so if I’m repeating, I apologize.

    However, couldn’t resist noting something superficial (’cause that’s what Sarah is all about) – she should have opted for one of those hateful Obama teleprompters because, despite all the plastic surgery, each time she bent over to read her speech (from cards or her hand) her middle-aged face still sagged forward as middle-aged faces are prone to do. When she held it back (which she did a lot) or even upright, her face looked better.

    Poor Sarah. She would have spent her money more wisely on voice training and body movement training. All the makeup in the world and a lot of the surgical techniques cannot totally eradicate aging vocal cords (when she insists on screeching) and fight gravity successfully (unless, of course you get your skin pulled so tightly you can’t see out your eyelids).

    I wonder if Chris Wallace will still want her on his lap should he get that chance to interview her? One more head-down speech reading scene and all those TP erections may limp away (sorry but those have been important supporters, ahem, of her).

    From FOX News: .. (not very flattering, although they did try to “spin” it!
    “Governor Sarah Palin has a reputation of being a very nice person.Most people who meet her really like her. So it was quite unnerving to hear her give such a tart speech at the Tea Party Convention on Saturday night. Although towards the end of her speech she talked about the need for stability and constructive debate the major part of her speech was filled with jabs at President Obama and the his administration.

    In fact, most of the speech was chapter and verse criticism of the Obama administration. It was worrisome how much of her speech was a broadbrush attack. She did not manage to get to specifics till the end.

    She went after reading the Miranda rights to the Christmas Day bomber but at the same time she kept mentioning the Constitution and the law. In fact the reading of Miranda rights to non-American citizens was defined by our courts, our system of law, and not by the current Obama administration. However, when you are giving red meat in a red state that is the buckle of the Bible Belt it does not matter that reading of the Miranda rights has been defined by law. It matters more that you are going to be giving a crowd-pleasing moment.

    Palin hit hard on a strong national defense, seeming to suffer from a quick memory lapse given that our defense budget is almost more than all the rest of the world put together and that our Secretary of Defense is a hold over from none other than the Bush administration. It seemed that the Tea Party convention crowd forgot that as well.

    Governor Palin does not understand that not all people in the Tea Party movement are conservative, and they do not necessarily buy into the entire conservative agenda. Some are Democrats that have real problems with our government having bailed out Wall Street and not having bailed out the guy next door who lost his job and can’t pay the mortgage.

    My eyes got wider with a couple of her other statements. One was to jump start energy projects and the other was that children with special needs should be welcomed. Last time I looked jump-starting energy projects was part of a big government and welcoming children with special needs has been helped on a local level with money given through our Department of Education. Some things really can’t be accomplished without big government.

    She’s right about a few things; the way we are currently spending makes us beholden to foreign countries and is generational theft. The problem is that no one, including the Republicans whose party she represented as their V.P. candidate, have taken on the issue of Medicare and Social Security. Our non-discretionary spending and our war spending are a drop in the bucket compared to what we are required to lay out for those programs. I would have liked to have heard Governor Palin address those spending issues. Now, that would have been a Tea Party speech even this liberal would have wanted to attend.

It’s going to continue to be up to us to be sure the greater public at large learn about her perfidy, shallowness, meanness and petty larceny. Her lack of intelligence and preparation alone should be reason enough to keep her out of higher office, but it won’t.

    So Faux gives a less than stellar review of her “performance”. Go figure! What else could they do with all the other news out there about her tax lapses, her husband, the secessionist running the AK Govt. for 2/1/2 years and her obvious hypocrisy across the board about everything and anything.

    Sarah Palin said,”I will live, I will die for the people of America.” How sick is that for a hater and divider like her to say? The people who follow Sarah are right wing extremists politically and/or religious fundamentalist extremists. These are the “real Americans,” as Sarah calls them.

    Re the telling photo of Ms Palin reading from her hand…

    Most of us tend to need new glasses once we reach that “certain age.” It just happens, is all.

    With the proper prescription eyeglasses, she probably could have glanced quickly at her notes, instead of having to stare at ‘em until they came into focus, thus giving a precious opportunity to the photographer who snapped the picture in question.

    Just sayin’

    Gotta say, I was channel surfing, hit the channel with “Palin/Tea Party” on it, said, “Oh no,” real fast, and shot right back to the syfy channel and the Bone Eater. Failed to grip, so I turned the TV off altogether. I’m so glad that there are people watch-dogging her, because I just can’t do it anymore. There was some justification for following her during the campaign, but now? There are so many bigger problems, and her puerile, negative, brand of “building America” just seems so pointless. She reminds me of a dog that once visited us. Now, we had a dog. Much to our surprise, our dog turned out to be a gentleman, and to be willing to live and let live. This dog faked it–and every time she saw our dog in a place where he couldn’t turn around fast (like if he was headed behind the sofa for his own doggish reasons) she’d quickly attack. He’d extricate himself, beat her up a little, and then walk away. Happened over and over again. She knew she couldn’t hope to beat him in a fair fight, so she just made sure she never had to face him on an even playing field. Maybe Sarah Palin knows that dog…

    There must be 4 or 5 links up already posted by various posters on Palingates that link back to websites that have already posted the notes where she was ‘ cheating ‘ in her speech with notes on her hand.
    “Tax Cheat” on Wednesday
    ” Speech Cheat ” on Saturday

    I see a pattern here.

    Someone said that Bree Palins website has a funny photoshop of the ‘two horses’ up by someone named ” Bea “. I saw the link from Palingates.

    Parts of my brain seem to start rotting whenever i read or hear something she has said. I dont want her back in Alaska, and yet i dont like her being unleashed upon the rest of the world either. Isn’t there a way we can contain her?

    Also, she is NOT a “true Alaskan.” We don’t sound like that either. Stop exploiting our state as the backdrop to your idiotic personality, Palin.

    “Notes on Your Hand” – Paula #375
    GET THAT COPYRIGHTED INSTANTLY! Can you imagine how much SNL might pay for that? And if somebody tries to do it before you do, there are a ton of people here who can vouch for you. Plus, there was a poster before you who suggested the great idea. Sounded like you knew each other.

    Anyway, I just googled “sarah palin reads from palm of hand”, and it’s for sure VIRAL. There had to be 15 sites to pick from. I chose HuffPo, and they have a super-clear image of exactly what was written on her palm, and you could read every word. It got all smeared as she kept rubbing her leg!

    Thanks for the laffs, guys. I just read all 428+ of these comments. You guys are brilliant (and I’m a California Republican). Now that I’ve had several “teas”, I’m actually going to try to watch this “speech” – let’s see how long I last.

    Kudos to the brave ones who could watch that speech! We watched “American Psycho” last night on IFC. Sounds like PJTV was playing it too . . . .

    The notes on the hand is classic. Classic. *pounds table and laughs* Six words. She couldn’t remember six words under the pressure of a completely sympathetic audience. Yet she wants us to believe she can handle the Oval Office?

    Thanks, Paula, for the new hit song. It’s going to be running through my head all day.

    Re the content of her speech: I think Andrew Halcro said it best on Shannyn’s show. “She is only effective when she has something to demonize.” She is so freaking negative. She’s just a rabble-rouser, really. The really sad thing is some people look at that and see something positive.

    OT: I’m so tired of that Creationists BS. First nowhere in the Bible does it say everyone was descended from Adam. In fact, Genesis itself contradicts this idea:

    “Cain said to the LORD, “My punishment is more than I can bear. Today you are driving me from the land, and I will be hidden from your presence; I will be a restless wanderer on the earth, and whoever finds me will kill me.”

    Who are these people going to kill Cain? Clearly there’s other people on the planet not affiliated with Adam and Eve. It’s clear these people only believe what they’re told. God gave you a brain! Stop wasting his gift and USE IT!
