Hero Pedant (Open Thread)
Well, we’ve been having some fun with anagrams back here at Mudflats Central.
Here are some of the best ones we found. You can have fun creating your own HERE. Do share the good political ones in the comments!
Lisa Ann Murkowski – I’m a Liars Skunk Now
Joseph Wayne Miller – Enjoy Swampier Hell
Mayor Daniel Sullivan – Dismally Inane Valour
Sarah Palin – A Sharp Nail
Sarah Heath Palin - Ha Ha! His prenatal.
Meg Stapleton – Gleam not. Pest.
Donald Edwin Young – Gonad in Woundedly
Levi Johnston – Joint ‘n Shovel
Brian the Moose - On homier beast!
Todd Palin – CENSORED
Have fun!

that is so cool
What a terrific picture! Gotta share that one – thanks!
Nan
hmmm……i like it!
Careful, Bubbles.
Great site! Todd Palin’s anagram is definitely the best!!
Sorry! Wrong place to post my comment!
Nearly bust a gut reading that one!
Fantastic!
Great pic! I usually don’t send things out via email, but I’m sending that.
It’s a bipartisan bubble. Everyone can enjoy it.
wow. (I need the googly-eyed smiley for this picture)
WHOA! That is awesome!
Where DO you manage to find these amazing photos??? This is one of your best!
Got a cool one lined up for ya tomorrow……
cool photo Austin.
On another note….
I couldn’t help but notice Bristol on the news tonight. They better rename the show, “stars standing with a dancer.” She certainly didn’t add anything to the show. She stood there and gyrated her hips while her counterpart danced around her.
“As for the possibility of a ‘President Palin’, Clinton told George Stephanopoulos that the “American people can elect whomever they want…But [she] served, you know, not a full…term as governor, and she went out and did this. We don’t even know if she’s going to run for President.” And it looks like Bill Clinton is going to play nice until that happens.”

Clinton weighs his words carefully, as he should, but I’m hoping that he has more pointed comments about the woman’s lack of real knowledge and experience. For instance, when pushed her fans usually fall back to point to her “energy expertise” I would truly like someone like Clinton to point out that not one Republican Governor called for her help during the recent oil spill catastrophe. Wonder why. Could it be that her energy expertise is all smoke and mirrors just like the rest of her so called experience.
Sarah Palin Legal Bills Still Paid For By Republican National Committee
http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2010/09/21/sarah-palin-legal-bills-rnc-still-paying_n_733921.html#comments
OK i’m confused, isn’t she soliciting donations so she can pay her legal fees ?
Ha !!
Ya mean to tell me that sarah is double dippin’ ?!?!
I can hardly believe it. NOT.
You are going to love the comments under this post about the legal bills on the FrumForum:
http://www.frumforum.com/rnc-still-paying-palins-legal-bills#comments
In fact, I would suggest these be passed around to all those who might have believe the quitter’s lies about why she “had” to resign.
RNC is fleeced by Van Flein and Palin…couldn’t happen to a better group
I’m perfectly happy about the RNC losing money that would otherwise go to campaigns for wingnut candidates, but I am quite twitchy about the other end of the equation…Van Flein and Palin are the two who benefit from this arrangement.
I suppose every upside needs to have a down side!
I saw this clip on Gyrphens. Don’t be put off by the first bit, keep watching.

That is oh so funny. Really nails who these female cons are.
Bwa ha ha…good one. Too bad it’s true *sigh*
christine o’donnell – In incoherent dolls
OR–christine o’donnell– incoherent sin doll
LOL!
Yeah, wait until the inevitable truth comes out.
That’s a good one.
Newt Gingrich- ‘Wrenching git.’
Charles and David Koch- ‘An odd arch-devils hack.’
Tea Party Express-’Ape experts stray.’
Governor Sean Parnell -’Venereal snarl or pong.’
Fun site! I’m bookmarking that one.
It’s amazing how eerily apt some of those anagrams can be! i.e. Governor Mark Sanford = Grrr! Knave of sad moron. Or a little more vague: Rush Limbaugh = I harm lush bug
(You had to know that the word”Censored” for “Todd Palin” would just have to be checked out, didn’t you! ROFL)
yup, bookmarking that site for sure
Nan i just couldn’t help it. i had to look-see. poor old Todd. pitiful old Todd.
Ha! It was good, wasn’t it!
Tea Party candidate Joe Miller -’Rejected or palatial dynamite.’
????!!!!
Can we just call him rejected dynamite?
SF Mayor “Gavin Newsom” = ‘Now vain gems’
Newt Gingrich= Wrenching Git
So apropos.
Or, if you want them all:
http://wordsmith.org/anagram/advanced.html
Some good ones for Carl Paladino. My favorite? Lilac Road Nap.
And in the spirit of nonpartisan anagramming: Andrew Cuomo: coma rewound.
Michelle Bachman– I am calm belch hen
Sharon Angle– Rash on angel
In honor of Chuitna Coal issue: Dick Bass– kid scabs
LMD, Sharron Angle spells her name with not one r, but 2.
oops. It’s still funny in a Mormon state.
Ronald Reagan–an oral danger
ole whatsername half term gov =’Vehement fool as large warmth.’
Has anyone else done his/her own name? Some favorites of mine: Meander yet hiking, dreaming eye think, midyear knee thing, maiden greeny kith, and meandering key hit. Bookmarked for more fun!
And from the bf’s name: a hunky caress lover!
oh la la!
Happy Sukkos, thatcrowwoman! Gud Yontiff! Tikkun olam shalom.
Mine suck. ‘Shall Animus Loom?’, ‘A Human’s ill Looms’, ‘Humanism All Solo’…
Ugh.
I can handle ‘A Mimosa Nosh Lull’. That just sounds like brunch. Or maybe, that pause in brunch, when you transition from breakfasty foods to lunchy items…?
Either way, I can ‘do’ brunch!
And it begins (from Andrew Halcro’s blog):
Notable Quotable….
“We looking forward to engaging Joe (Miller) in a dialog about Sen. Ted Stevens and the work he did for Alaska, work that Lisa has carried on,” said Steve Wackowski, Murkowski’s campaign spokesman, late Friday night. “As (to) the rest of Joe’s ramblings, this is coming from a man who is asking Alaskans to ‘tighten their belts’ on government spending — while he enjoyed having government pay for his education, both undergrad and graduate, subsidize healthcare for him and his family, and pay his salary for the majority of his adult life. Alaskans deserve better.”
I can’t remember Beck’s first name. I will leave that one to someone else.
Sharron Angle: Oh snarl anger.
That one is even better.
Sean Parnell: Anal lens rep!
hahahaha
Miller acknowledges getting farm subsidies
http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2010/09/21/AR2010092103993.html?hpid%3Dpolitics&sub=AR
Murkowski’s campaign spokesman is named Wackowski? You jut can’t make this stuff up!
Onto another important topic, given even more urgency by tonight’s/tomorrow’s holiday:
“You may have heard that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is saying he’ll resume settlement construction after an 10 month partial moratorium, and Palestinian President Abbas is threatening to scuttle the talks and resign if he does. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton is personally involved, trying to keep the talks alive.
“J Street is running full-page newspaper ads in the New York Times, Wall Street Journal, and other papers urging Netanayahu, Abbas, and Obama to make history, freeze settlement growth, and to give these new talks a chance to succeed.
“The stakes could not be higher for those of us who care about Israel achieving real peace and security in our lifetime — and for those of us who want to see all peoples of the region realize the dream of self-determination.
“I agree with famed Israeli novelist David Grossman when he recently remarked, “I don’t have the luxury of despair” when it comes to this latest round of talks.
“I will have none of this cynicism about the talks because it doesn’t help achieve a secure and democratic future for Israel. The paths of the critics lead only to the dead end of zero sum politics and blame games.”
Here’s the link: http://action.jstreet.org/p/dia/action/public/?action_KEY=2483
Tikkun olam shalom.
I’m shocked that Palin hasn’t chimed in with her usual:
“I disagree with the Obama administration on that. I believe that the Jewish settlements should be allowed to be expanded upon, because that population of Israel is, is going to grow. More and more Jewish people will be flocking to Israel in the days and weeks and months ahead. And I don’t think that the Obama administration has any right to tell Israel that the Jewish settlements cannot expand.”

Toda raba, Zyxomma, and Tikkun Olam Shalom to you, also, too.
(joining you is some bensching for Shalom/Salaam/Peace)
Thomas Van Flein – Man in Loveshaft.
George Herbert Walker Bush – Hugh berserk rebel warthog!
That is hysterical!
Hey AKM!
NPR picked up the Joe Miller / Farm payment story

Well, it’s not kind. Sorry.

All I can say is Wow! Rubio does not think that is important to be an “expert” on anything to serve in the Senate when defending O’Donnell. I guess the Tea Party wants people like Joe the Plummer to balance a multiple trillion dollar budget, engage in complicated foreign policy discussions, understand the complexities of import/export balances and laws, engage with the smartest people in the world on climate change and environmental discussions, engage with the World Health Organization about threats to the health and safety of the country’s citizenry…. Hey as long as ya look good, hey Rubio?!

Sarah Palin: Sharia plan
Michele Bachmann: I’m cable henchman
Keith Ellison: I is token hell
Barack Obama: Arab back Mao
Joe Biden: I need job
Attention to everyone who believes in freedom because the Tea Party candidates want to take it away:
http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2010/09/22/palin-abortion-rape-incest_n_731385.html
Send this to all those Tea Party supporters who claim that they want their freedom back (as if they ever lost it?! Are they free right now to parade around in tri-corner hats and lie to their little hearts delight without fear of prosecution?). If Fox and the Tea Party wins, we will see an end to personal freedoms and may even see a big set back for freedom of the Press (unless, of course, the media follows the rules as set by Fox news).
They just do not get it. It isn’t about whether women will have abortions or not. It is about it being safe. Period. Women have been aborting fetuses since the beginning of time. They will continue to do so. No one can stop that. Are we really ready to go back to the back alley and the number of lives that that will cost? What is pro-life about that? And I still don’t see how any woman can support a bunch of men trying to police our uteruses. What about all of their screeching about government intrusion into our lives? Sorry hypocrits, you cannot have it both ways.

Breaking story:
Looks like ‘Murkwski’ is keeping her seat as top Republican on the Senate Energy Committee:
http://community.adn.com/adn/node/153248
Where she will continue to be a leader in innovative, creative, renewable energy for Alaska, the nation, and the world–no doubt!
Republicans are so out of date.
Yeah, exactly. But I suppose as long as she pushes the oil agenda (to the benefit of her lobbyist friends) there are many here in Alaska who will want to see her re-elected. Not I, of course.
Newton Leroy Gingrich = ‘Only once. Right-winger’ LOL!!!
Grizzly Mama’s are real fraidy cats who are unable to speak to the real media:

Look! We is wacki murki. (waves) Tsk!
In this latest poll, Palin’s disapproval with undecided voters is 65%!

The Tea Party try to reclaim Reagan as one of them but if the truth be told he would not have passed their purity test:

I just did the anagram thing on my name. I was so disappointed.
“‘Men hate her. Healer nags.” I typed in my married name and got something like “lonely hen.”
When I typed in Irishgirl…the anagram was Irish girl!
I’m not playing this game anymore.
try “mudpup Irish girl”
I don’t like the game either. Got “dire” journal for my name. Kind of takes the fun out of it!
Just popping in after work, and haven’t read all the comments…but I do love playing with words…
Sukkot, the Jewish Harvest Festival (Thanksgiving) starts at sunset tonight. It’s my all time favorite holiday/Holy Day, and the anniversary of Littlebird’s naming ceremony. She’s in Oxford, Mississippi tonight with friends at a concert by The Hold Steady! (I’m just a tiny bit jealous, but she’s promised me pictures…)
Anyway, if you’d like to know more about Sukkot, here’s a link:

I’m making a full-blown Thanksgiving turkey dinner tomorrow…with stuffing/dressing, mashed taters ‘n’ gravy, rolls, broccoli, cranberry sauce, and apple pie…oh, yummy!
and I’ve got the day off from work to count my blessings…my fine mudflats friends are high on the list… I love you guys…
{{{{{mudflats friends}}}}
L’Shalom, all. Off to read the comments and all those new posts…
My name came out ‘Grr! Clean noble brew.’
‘Wotcha! Warm not.’ = thatcrowwoman
hmmmmm….
Wishing you and yours a happy, healthy, peaceful and clearly yummy holiday!
& we love you, too, thatcrowwoman! Enjoy your feast. I’m making something similar, but no turkey (portobello mushrooms). My recipes for baked portobellos with vegan mashed potatoes & gravy are all posted in the forum, on recipe thread 3, if anyone’s feeling adventurous!
Always remember, whatever you’re making, the first ingredient is LOVE.
Will have to share your recipes with Littlebird…she’s no vegan, but pescatarian (fish-eating vegetarian) for 4 years now.
Yeah. Out of the mouth of anagrams…..
‘Twitter Twat Palin’ — ‘Prenatal twit twit.’
‘Mama Grizzly Sarah Palin’ — ‘Lazy, amazing, spiral harm’
‘Half term Governor Palin’ — ‘Half-normal VIP on regret’
‘Worst Governor Ever Sarah Palin’ — ‘Now harlot perversion ravagers.’
Those are excellent, Lee.
I just figured out that we’re supposed to go the anagram site to get those anagrams. I just made up the one about Steve Wackowski+Lisa Murkowski. And I was wondering how folks were so quick with Todd Palin. I just couldn’t figure it out. Until I clicked on HERE and entered Todd Palin. hahahaha
Michelle Obama: able chamomile
WaHOO! I’m going to see Bill Clinton and Richard Blumenthal on Sunday! Free tix!! http://bit.ly/bBEWbN I’m going to a DTC office to pick mine up though… I like to have things in hand!
Yay, Ripley!
Looking forward to a report, Ripley.
