Open Thread – More Fun from the Back Room
Every once in a while I enjoy sharing a little glimpse of what we get to see in the “back room” of The Mudflats. There’s one little area that I particularly like. It shows what search terms people have used to arrive at the blog. The top of the list has things like “mudflats blog” and “mudflats.net” as you might predict. But as you move down the list, things can get very amusing.
Not only are there the misspellings that arrive by searching “the udflats” or “mudflata” or “the muflats” but also some like these below. Some are understandable, but others are complete head-scratchers. This batch came from our Forum Master Snoskred. Enjoy!

Many apologies to those with flooded dog pens, erupting valcones, looking for a source of salmon putty or just hoping to catch a video of some….er…. recreation on the mudflats.
Here’s hoping you enjoyed the visit anyway!
I had no idea there were counterfeit Olympic mittens until I read through the search terms!
The things you learn on the interweb..
I know I’ve typed “muflats”. Some of those other ones are hard to understand. Not sure I want to know what is behind “snow white and the seven republicans,” though. Sounds like porn.
Salmon putty? What on earth….
Hypnotic pitbull…I’m getting sleeeepy…my eyelids are getting heaaaaavy.
But that voice! Eeeeeeeek! *snapping out of it* Definitely a spell-breaker, so not to worry, mudpups!
Never a dull moment at the ‘Flats, even though we keep our recreation G or PG.
Off to work, scanning the forest for the rock of gigralter and the meaning of a valcone that blows his top off.
Keep your eyes and ears open, friends. Have Fun and Learn Something today.
Here’s a great column to start your day “Sarah Palin, finally a fallen star”

Thanks for the link. Quite a departure from last weeks retarded love scribe from David S. Broder. Mr. Cohen’s mention of Boulder made me chuckle , because I’m actually here and marvel at all the bumper stickers that show the liberal leanings of the community.
And Mr. Cohen also mentioned Berkeley in his article and I went back and found the following article that I put up a few days ago.

I’m soooooo confused. Fox’s Family Guy is under fire from the Palins for their latest “retarded” (and most likely tasteless, as is their norm) satirical program. But I thought that using this subject in satire was OK? It was for Rush….

http://wonkette.com/413723/hero-finally-punches-mitt-romney
OMG @17
The Family Guy guys set Palin up-making fun of her, with some obvious “satire”-and the moran took the bait, via her daughter, Bristol: “Their lives are difficult enough as it is, so why would anyone want to make their lives more difficult by mocking them?
How did Palin’s eldest son, Track, manage not to be used by the grifter?
Very amazing -
Wonder if they can get the blow-up via Amazon? lol
Am just greatful I found my way here on the day she was announced.

austin@ 23 – so how does one get to “sex on the Mudflats” from that mix? Is that what happens when a person eats a 2-foot refried bean burrito with the drink?
Although peach schnapps is enough to put grit betwixt any man’s teeths.
BegPete: Track knows he is a Menard which is evidenced by his acting out in his teen years and his near boycott of the Palin family, which is becoming pretty obvious.

“print your own olympic torch”??? Well. . . all righty, then.
even Ann Coulter (ugh) says palin was wrong to take sides on the ‘retarded’ issue and she’s about as unreasonable as they get…she was on Joy Behar.
Yeah ! How DO you pronouce coelocanth? ( I’m pretty sure it’s something you mix with salmon putty and feed to the hypnotic pitbull but I have to look that up )
And re: What happens when a valcone blows his top off – Were the Valcone’s one of the families in the Sopranos ?
Re: Family Guy & Palin hypocrisy – I dislike “Family Guy”. Way too over the line for me. Back in the day when my kids watched it I found it to be painful . I don’t find humor in mocking the sick, disabled, dying, etc. Family Guy has done much, MUCH worse than this DS bit.
That said – This is entirely $P’s fault and she asked for it. At the time of the Rahm incident she couldn’t just make a statement on Facebook saying, ” I hope there will come a time when we can rise to become our best selves and words such as this will be a thing of the past.” Nope – she had to run for her tank of gasoline and book of matches and go to town. If Rush goes to town with a repeat performance, she’s going to be stuck.
I don’t remember what I ‘did the google’ on to get me here, (although I’m sure it was something totally rational, sane, correctly spelled, and sensical) but I’m sure glad, whatever it was, ‘worked’!
I don’t know what I’d have done without AKM and all the ‘puppies the past year and a half…you’ve -all- helped me keep from yanking my hair out at the roots over the insanity that is “She who would be POTUS but isn’t qualified to run a 3-person committee meeting of the local garden club” (no offense meant to runners of 3-person meetings of said clubs…) Thank you ALL from the bottom of my heart!
On a different note, I see the American Psychiatric Association is revising its manual… Apparently they are proposing that people who *currently* have “mental retardation” will become (with its new edition) people with “intellectual disabilities.” Holy crapola! Talk about “pc-ing” your main source of diagnostic designators!
http://www.google.com/hostednews/ap/article/ALeqM5jdKqvb7DZsuRpnh8NnrTnV2DJIlgD9DP3S0O1
[Maybe it's just me who finds this particular bit of news so [ahem] mind blowing, but really! I mean, I can see redesignating a behaviour from (currently) ‘disorder’ to ‘normal’ (or vice versa) and/or reclassifying a syndrome from (currently) ‘abnormal’ to ‘unusual’ (or vice versa), etc., based on *scientific* evidence, but, c’mon, ‘re-naming’ a condition to make it pc? Gimme a break!
‘sides which, what will SP (and Bristol) have to FB/grouse about, when “retardation” is no longer in the medical lexicon?] beth.
BETH:DS is NOT just intellectual and it might be a disservice regarding healthcare to ignore the physical problems that come from DS as well.
Dontcha just love the googles.
As regards the Family Guy thing, we were discussing it on the forum. I made some points and I will repost them here.
Sarah started this whole thing trying to score some cheap points over a comment that was made six months ago. Everything was going swimmingly for her until Rush jumped in. You can bet he knew exactly what he was doing too. He was telling her in no uncertain terms that he is the boss. That comment from Rush put her in a very awkward position. Her response, that because it was satire it that it was ok, exposed her rank hypocrisy. (Her supporters are not pleased with Rush).
Now, to try to avoid looking again like a hypocrite, she gets Bristol to respond to the Family Guy dig. Why oh why can’t she leave her children out of her sorry mess?
Also too,
I think that she did get the fact that the joke was directed at her and not at her child and she is deliberately trying to twist it to deflect attention away from her. I know she drags poor Tr** all over the place proudly displaying him, but she likes to do this on her terms. She had no control over the Family Guy skit and it portrayed her as the mother of a teenager with DS. This “ages” her and doesn’t fit in with her projected sexy image. Hence, enter Bristol to deflect that image from everyone’s mind.
I’d say that is what her real problem with it is, that skit hit home. Just my 2 cents…
[lilibart@36 - I know DS is not *solely* an issue of mental capabilities; there's a whole gamut of issues associated with the condition, as well...some more pronounced/severe than others. I fully understand and appreciate that.
My 'problem' is with the proposed 're-naming' of "mental retardation" to "intellectual disabilities." A person with dyslexia, for example, has an "intellectual disability" in/with a *specific* task...they do not necessarily have "mental retardation" which would be a designator for impared/slowed mental abilities in *multiple* tasks.
Maybe it's my being the parent of a "learning disabled" (gads, how I hate that lable!) child, but I *know* there are 'degrees' of disability and disabilities. My child is *off the charts* in ALL intellectual measurements...except one: mathematics and its associated operations. Should my child, then, be (as now proposed) classified as "intellectually disabled"? Since that is the proposed 'substitute' for "mental retardation," would that accurately 'name' his mental abilities/acuity? Would the (proposed) new, pc designation allow him to get better/more/different treatment for his *specific* impairment, or would it lump him in with all others who are (currently) designated as "mentally retarded"?
To my way of thinking, being pc, is one thing; pc-ing ourselves out of accuracy, is something else, entirely. To put it bluntly, I think doing the latter is just plain retarded. beth.]

Oh, oh. Just heard on Fox that Sarah is going to be on O’Reilly at 8:00 (ET). Although I didn’t hear specifically tonight, but it must have meant tonight. She’s supposed to talk about Afghanistan.
And, I’m suspicious of her facebook rant was very timely considering she’s on O’Reilly tonight. I hope he calls her on her hypocrisy. Hope it doesn’t coincide with LOST. I’d rather be lost with “Lost” than lost with Sarah’s word salad.
“Salmon putty” is of course a misspelling of ‘Salmon Patty’, AKA Patricia “Patty” Wilson, AKA Patricia “Salmon Patty” Wilson, the famous . . . oh, forget it.

Besides, Lowry may just still be seeing stars from the Palin/Biden debate, after which he actually wrote (in public!):
“I’m sure I’m not the only male in America who, when Palin dropped her first wink, sat up a little straighter on the couch and said, “Hey, I think she just winked at me.” And her smile. By the end, when she clearly knew she was doing well, it was so sparkling it was almost mesmerizing. It sent little starbursts through the screen and ricocheting around the living rooms of America. This is a quality that can’t be learned; it’s either something you have or you don’t, and man, she’s got it.”
You may laugh now.

I have stopped watching Fox news, but might tune in on this one.
Would love it if he would ask about her “special” Valentine from Kara
BuffaloGal –
Nope – she had to run for her tank of gasoline and book of matches and go to town.
And not just that issue – but Every issue. No rational admonitions, no aspirational message, and no rational restraint, she just reaches straight away for the gasoline and matches. She even torched her own governorship to teach her detractors a lesson.
Yeah, you showed us, Sarah, but why are you limping? Why’s there a bullet hole in your foot?

Isn’t going out on a date to a restaurant (with table cloths and candles and menus, even) with a guy who has a HUGE crush on you, a *good* thing?
Why should the fact that her mother happens to be “the former governor of Alaska” be a handicap for a young girl wishing to go on a date with a guy who obviously thinks she’s beautiful, kind, nice, sweet, etc.?
Oh, my bad: “the former governor of Alaska” would be Sarah Palin. Now *that* IS a certifiable handicap – instant buzzkill for any hope of a ‘normal’ relationship… beth.

The most interersting thing about the Romney story (someone taking a swing at him on the plane) was that it said he and his wife were flying “economy”.
Really?….economy? Mitt was flying economy?
The only reason MItt would be flying “economy” rather than on a private (or NetJets) jet, would be to attempt to appear to be like the common folks for his upcoming run in 2012.
This is hilarious, he is flying economy and the woman who is supposed to be representing Main Street America is flying in a private jet—while pretending to be on a bus.
Bwwwwhahhahahaha.
Am recovering from falling out of my chair at “Shiksa Madness” – great article by Richard Cohen, certainly one of the best I’ve read about Madam Palin. Thanks Mudflats, in all your misspellings and permutations, you always come through with the absolute best stuff.
So now Palin is an expert on Afganistan?
During the election, didn’t she say something like this,
“Our neighboring country, Afganistan……?
Richard Cohen from the Washington Post writes:
The lady from Alaska is a phony. She has sold out for money, quitting office so that she could cash in. She asserted her small-town bona fides, her antipathy both to the establishment and the mainstream media — and then got herself a ghostwriter, a booking agent and a (Fox News) network contract. She is rich, famous for the metaphorical 15 minutes Andy Warhol allotted us all and, elbows swinging, is forging her way to oblivion. She was neither a threat (the left) nor an opportunity (the right), but just a fantasy — until the American people turned the lights on.

I don’t know what it’s doing in Buffalo but 90 miles to the east in Rochester it’s snowing. We haven’t had nearly as much snow this winter (so far) as we usually do. Of course, March and April are notorious for blizzards around here so we’re not out of the woods quite yet!
My cousin in Philadelphia and a friend in MD used to tell me I was crazy to move from LI to what they refer to as the ‘frozen north’. They’re not laughing now, poor things!
leenie 17 they sure aren’t laughing at you. now that i don’t have to get up and go to work i find snow beautiful. I snuggle in my bed and read books and eat snacks. also. too. i have time for Mudflats and all my friends here. kewel.

Thanks for the link ~ I learn *at least* one new thing every day, thanks to the ‘flats and its ‘pups.

Car’s Hutchins, is going to address it as soon (I’m assuming) as he gets elected…and so rampant/bad, it seems, it must be written in ALL CAPS! beth.
*Says so, right there on Huchins’ “elect me!” page: [he's going] “To Stop MASS VOTING FRAUD.” I’m rather confused about how, exactly, that’d work…a State Rep from N.Car. telling Mass how to run their elections, but, whatever…if Hutchins says he’s going to do it, more power to him. {Makes me wonder, though: Does the “R” after his name stand for “Republican,” do you suppose, or for another “R”-word?} b.

@75BuffaloGal (and Bubbles & Leenie17) – We were living in Niagara Falls (Spouse worked in/commuted to Buffalo for work) when “The Blizzard of 1977″ hit. Whoa, was *that* fun! When the storm hit, our home lost power to all but one outlet AND to our furnace, so it wasn’t horrendously bad. I invited our neighbors over to watch TV and keep warm(ish).
Spouse, of course, was in Buffalo when the storm hit – he didn’t get home for 72 hours from the time he left the office at 10AM. When he finally arrived at our front door, he was in an assortment of clothing he’d been given by Buffalo friends to keep him from freezing on his way. He looked like a scarecrow -arms stuck almost perpendicular to his body from all the layers. His head gear was a corker, too…he’d taken his ‘envelope’ US Army hat (in some circles, it’s called something *very* suggestive of what it looks like…but I’m not even going to go there) and pulled the thing down over his ears like a cloche. Quite lovely…and *quite* “out of uniform.”

You have made my day! *Frantically copying them to send to oh-so-dense relative who still thinks Mr. Obama is not of this country, SP is the Madonna (the holy one, not the singer) of America’s salvation, and George Bush was brilliant.*
Nite you mad feckers! That is a compliment.

Is there not something quite (mo)ronic in this statement from Hutchins’ website: “GEORGE HUTCHINS INVITES ALL BLACK, WHITE, SPANISH, AND ASIAN U.S. VOTERS TO JOIN US !!”?
Sheesh, there’s vote fraud in MASS, and yet, here he is, inviting the Spanish to join together (with him/his ‘movement’) and vote him into office! Talk about your ‘double standard’… LOL. beth.

(I also loved this line from the same site page: “IMAGES DO NOT IMPLY ENDORSEMENTS, AND ARE LEGAL TO PRESENT ON THIS SITE. – ALL REQUESTS FOR REMOVAL WILL BE DENIED, LEGAL BY LAW.” Ya’ gotta wonder about the mustachioed dude – just how ‘in touch’ is he? b.)
@ austintx…..Yeah. Playtime is good….and I needed it today.
Just came in from teaching my daughter her first lesson driving a standard transmission vehicle….
After the first two shuddering engine kills and a horrifying episode of burning rubber on gravel, I noticed that my instructions to her sounded eerily similar to Palin’s resignation speech……same hysterical pitch and nonsensical verbiage peppered occasionally with “CLUTCH! ” “BRAKE” “OMG STOP!”
Not only can I not speak straight, I can’t type straight! Wonder how long this intellectual disability will last. It took me ten minutes to type this post correctly. GACK!
I’m curious about why someone was googling “hypnotic pitbull” – I assume they mean Palin, but I had visions of a pitbull performing hypnosis – or going into a trance and channeling Cesar Milan

I am SO laffing my ass off !! When now 25 yr. old daughter was 16 , I bought her a standard tranmission 1st car. I sincerely believe that God and/or karma came to collect during those white knuckle driving lessons. I thought , there is NO way I acted like this when I was 16 and learning how to drive. Good Luck !!
Has anyone heard if $P/Granny Grifter is going to be in Southern California on March 6? I just overheard a guy at a store saying she would be here. Please no, please no, please no…..
Thanks, austin. I’m thinking ’bout now that Lady Luck riding in the back seat will be as critical as a double-breasted seat belt and quadrilateral air bags.
Lee323 ~ do you have any friends who owe you a REALLY BIG favor? They might could take over the driving lessons for you… leastwise for 3 or 5 lessons til darling/driving daughter has gotten the hang of getting a manual transmissioned vehicle to forego the start > stutter > stall > re-start > jerk > grind gears > sputter > lurch > stall > (rinse and repeat) ‘dance’. From experience, I know being driven by one’s offspring is SO much more pleasant once they’ve mastered the “start > go” feature of vehicular movement… If you can ‘pass’ the lessons off to someone else, I highly recommend it. Just a thought. beth.
When I was taught to drive stick by my best friend’s sister, before I was allowed to even put the key in the ignition, she said the following:
“Here are the rules. If you grind the gears, we HAVE to laugh our azzes off. If the car stalls, we shout, “OMG! She flatlined! CLEAR!” before restarting the engine. If the car bucks, we go “YEEEE-HAWWWWW!” You got that?”
I was like, “Ummm… ok.”
By the end of the first 10 minutes, we were in absolute hysterics, but I had it down.
Mona Lisa:
That had to have been the best driving lesson ever!
My mom and I sat in the back as my dad tried to teach my sister who’s 3 yrs older than I am, and my mom knew how to drive a semi-automatic. After hearing my dad 2x, I was able to get it pretty quickly, but oh, was it painful for my sister. She would come in the house, slam the door and be in tears for an hour after some of the attempts. My sister and dad are very alike, but dad doesn’t cry. (He probably wanted to, though.)
My very dear, patient husband taught my little sister how to drive a stick over a weekend. He also got his “revenge” on a couple that always wanted the appearance that they doted on their daughter and gave her everything, but, in reality, were always yanking her chain. They had all stick cars and bought her a really nice used mustang, but then, somehow, were always too busy doing “something else” for her that they couldn’t teach her to drive them. She already had her license. He taught her to drive the stick, and she went home and hopped in her little mustang and had a ball! Never got a ticket or did anything stupid. She, in lieu of a party, moved out the day she turned 18. Best thing she ever did.
He also taught one of our kids how to drive on a stick. No automatic first. There are a lot of things that can drive him nuts, but teaching kids to drive isn’t one of them. Perhaps that comes from teaching middle school.
@ beth
“start > stutter > stall > re-start > jerk > grind gears > sputter > lurch > stall > (rinse and repeat) ‘dance’”
Were you in the car with us?? Hahaha. You nailed the routine perfectly. Good idea to enlist someone to help out. I tend to be somewhat of a perfectionist…..which isn’t ideal when teaching stick-shift driving to a teenager. Thanks.
@ MonaLisa (in CT)
Now I’m laughing my azz off! Definitely have to try that technique!

Jeez! Who’d he get to design his web page! His paper shredder!?
His current pic looks like a Gomez Addams mug shot. (Widows and orphans. We need more of them.) OK. That was Morticia’s line, but it seems to fit him. I’d also sooner vote for Gomez. At least you’d know what you were getting, and it’d be entertaining, to boot!
Lee323 -
The closest spouse and I ever came to divorce was when he tried to teach me to drive a standard. I suggested having a “neutral” driving coach, but he wouldn’t have it. End result: AUTOMATICS RULE! (MY thought about standard vs automatics is “if god had wanted us to shift gears, she would never had had automatics appear in someone’s mind.” This is close to “had god wanted us to be frustrated with computers, she would never had inspired MACS!”
Driving manual: I learned. Now that I drive an automatic, I still have all the “listen to the engine” stuff down. It is useful, but not essential. Teaching DH to drive a stick shift is not worth our marriage. So we have an automatic.
BTW, my father was taught to drive using the “book method”. Every time he stalled/ messed up, etc. he was hit on the back of the head with the driver’s manual. He did not employ this method with me.
I looked at that Hutchins site earlier — is he serious???
I just got this link from someone who posted it on the Palingates thread.
It’s a clip of the ” DOPEY Changey ” Woman who appeared on O’Reilly tonight.
This way you don’t have to watch Bill’s show… also, too.
In her REtarded Pin-head of her’s she again TRIES to explain that Rush was using satire. And the Joke was NOT about DS Kids… the one-line Joke was about You… Not your DS son. And the whine about You ‘ supporting Organizations… etc. Well… we all know that with your Multi-Million dollar Book deal… you only thought of them enough to donate $1000. And that was on the LAST day of the year. Probably because the Accountant said to give to charities.
Otherwise as soon as that Harper Collins check got cashed back in Sept…. Why didn’t you write them a check then… to support that cause you always ‘ talk ‘ about… but DON’T support.
Watch the clip. Others have said Bill seemed dis-interested. Maybe the Producers said he had to let her come on.

Heh. Nope. both Washington’s and my mom’s birthday. But, I’m trying to arrange a visit to my daughter down your way. If I can get down there, I’ll let you know, and maybe we can meet.

O’Reilly seems disinterested. Perhaps that’s because Sarah is a boring interview. But, to help her out, he should give her the name of his hairdresser. She looks like she’s wearing yesterday’s clothes and didn’t have a comb on her when she checked into the hotel.
Lee… try having her start out in 2nd rather than 1st,,, smoother on the jerking ! Both my daughters learned on Auto, cuz wife refused to learn stick.. I was 14 when I got my learner’s permit; Dad taught me on a VW bus (manual, 64). after the test, he threw me the keys and off we went…I was doing 45 mph and he said”turn left”. .. so I did.at 45MPH !! put that bus up on two wheels…and after I completed the turn and had all 4 wheels on the ground..he FIRMLY told me to stop..and started to tongue lash me..Navy Chief, so you can imagine the vocab !.. I replied with ” you said to turn, you DIDN’T say , slow down and turn..” He looked at me, with a shocked look and said” you’re right, I’ll remember that”..
BD,
Ok, send me a PM, I’ll check it more regularly. Happy Birthday to mom!
@ the problem child
“Book method”…..reminds me of a piano teacher I had in 6th grade.
“Olga” was a fiery Russian who had been a concert pianist of some renown in her younger days. When I made a mistake, she would slap my hands hard and swear in Russian. Her slaps were not pianissimo either. My hands were quite red by the time I pushed myself away from her baby grand. I figured she had learned her art of slapping just short of breaking bones from the Russian mob ( students with broken hands wouldn’t be paying tuition, after all). Olga also had the unfortunate habit of emitting “silent but deadly” aromas from her hindquarters. As you can imagine…..that provoked even more wrong notes in my playing……which in turn earned me more slaps. So, it was a bizarre flurry of farts and slaps……Hahaha. Poor Olga…..once the toast of Russia reduced to teaching piano to the ham-handed peasants. Truly.
@ benlomand2
Hilarious story! The Mudflats have me mellowed out from the driving lesson from hell….
I shall go forth with renewed determination and a casual air…..and even when my life is flashing in front of my eyes and long dead ancestors start beckoning……I, too, will say “you’re doing just fine, sweetie.”
What with Mr. Hutchins, driving lessons, Ms. Olga, and other items of noteworthy interest gracing the ‘flats today, I’ve been laughing and laughing. And laughing.
Surely there’s a word in the English language that means: “A geezer who’s sitting quietly in front of the computer screen and who, while reading what’s displayed on said computer screen, for no apparent reason and with no prior warning, suddenly bursts out into loud and completely involuntary guffaws of pure mirth and grand enjoyment”? Spouse was wondering what that word might be…I sorta kinda do, too, also. beth.
Lee… she can ONLY get better!!! keep up the positive reinforcement, she’ll get out of the driveway successfully one of these days !!!
Just saw Rachael slam Beck…. SOOOOooo Cool !!
Irishgirl 72—–I just tried the google thread—–typed in my username and mudflats——that is spooky!!!!
BTW: What in the heck is Ms. Martyr* wearing around her neck in the O’Really ‘interview’? Looks to me like a couple of house keys…one for the Lake Lucille house and one for the ‘cabin,’ possibly? Does she have one, yet, for the in-house studio? What about her ‘office’ at Faux? When she gets those, will she add them to the necklace chain, too, also? Hmmmm… beth.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tarcoBFVAOA
*She of the zero comprehension of what the whole FG episode was *about*! Sorry, Ms. Martyr, it wasn’t about “special needs” children…it was about yahoos like you who *use* them. The girl was out on a date…she was deeply adored by the fellow who asked her on that date…she was being normal! Her DS did NOT limit her, her DS did NOT keep her from speaking her mind, her DS did NOT prevent a fellow from seeing her as beautiful and totally flipping out for her. Her DS did NOT keep her from getting gussied up and going out on a date. Her DS did NOT keep her from doing what a ‘typical’ teenaged-girl does. Her *only* ‘handicap’ was having as a mother “the former governor of Alaska”. Put that in you pipe and smoke it, Ms. Martyr! [Arrrrgh, SPs 'innocent children' pap is getting tiresome to me.]

[Something else I noticed in the BillO interview...
2 of the 3 the video clips of her youngest child were of him (the youngest child) being schlepped around like a sack of potatoes. Of *all* the videos of the child, BillO selected those. BillOs voice, tone, and body language - combined with his choice of clips - sounded to me like he was saying: "FU and your 'righteous indignation', SP...you've become a screeching, hypocritical, broken record; an embarassing harridan who just needs to shut her yap." It didn't seem like BillO had any time for her; he was mighty tired of her continual bs. Finally! Good on him. beth.]

I heard this Joke on Letterman Monday night… about the “DOPEY Changey” Woman. I looked it up on Google to make I told it correctly. What do you know… some RW site had it posted in an attempt to knock Dave and defend DOPEY Woman. As told Monday Night.(reference to her appearance at the Daytona 500)
DAVID LETTERMAN: You know who was at the Daytona 500? Sarah Palin. Former Alaskan governor, Sarah Palin. She was at the finish line and she waved her checkered past. That’s exactly what happened.
Thanks Dave… please comment about the ” Family Guy Show”
