This just in. Since the conservative group created a commercial thanking Gov. Palin for being the vice presidential nominee, a liberal group thought it would be a great idea for them to thank her as well. Here is the link, enjoy

Yeah, that last segment was a bit over the top, but hey, it's at the same level as the stupid comments by far-righters who in their comments on this and other blogs, keep tying in killing-unborn-fetuses-by-abortion to the slaughtering of Thanksgiving turkeys.
Slaughtered turkey = food. Fetus? Are they suggesting an aborted fetus is food? Granted, they're both bloody, but really...!

Yuck. I hope it doesn't become "the" liberal response. It's not my response. I think it's mean and nasty and doesn't serve the cause of Dems, progressives, liberals, and probably several other groups who may have some affinity with where they come from in their feelings. I'm embarassed by it.

As my thank YOU to Alaska, here is Turkey Giblets' recent life in verse.....and, in my defense, I'm suspecting that the bourbon did not entirely boil off in the baking process of the pecan pie I just liberally sampled...also my apologies to Dr. Suess and whomever else I am about to offend.
No one knows for sure exactly what happened that day
It will take many post-mortems and historians to say
But it seems that the most likely reason of all
Was that starburst production had slowed to a crawl ….
Let’s go back in the year, to one fateful cruise
That led neocons like Kristol to summon their muse
“Such glittering brown eyes! Such evanescence!”
“Who cares if she has one or two undeclared presents?”
And so what if her ethics seemed sort of lax,
Or that Permanent Fund pay-offs were a redistributed windfall tax?
What she lacked in experience, she made up in zest, hiring cronies and axing the rest
And why should we care she’s an incipient granny,
With a home and arena bearing a resemblance uncanny?
He flew her to Phoenix; they sat by a creek
“I’m looking for someone with a mavericky streak”
“Well, I’m your gal,” she said without blinking, foreshadowing a well made-up face prone to winking
He’d opened the door on a job that was plum, a feather in her tiara, really quite swell
And if it didn’t work out, there’s always oh-twelve
When McCain presented his idea to his staff as shrewd, dropped jaws and pregnant pauses ensued
“Come on, my friends, she’s had five-ish kids! And she loves to bear arms. How lucky that is!
With all of that, and an anti-choice chaser….the base will be electrified. Why, who could be baser?”
Some privately worried and bit away nails, contemplating Alaskan politicans’ affinity for jails
And kids with names like “Javelin” and “Zamboni”? It’s a little bit odd;
And are we sure about all those hobby write-offs for Todd?
And wasn’t she known for shooting the occasional wolf pup?
McCain gruffly replied, “She’ll bring the ticket nowhere but up.”
What of Troopergate, per diems, books off the shelves?
“Who cares? They field dress moose by themselves!”
“But, Senator, it’s a real Hail Mary pass.”
“Naw. It couldn’t possibly come back to bite me in the ass.”
But even stalwarts like Noonan didn’t spare the declarative, calling them out on the big BS narrative
Some of the press was a little unnerved when told she couldn’t talk until she got the deference she "deserved"
Free Republicans held the course a little bit longer
As hints of DSM IV symptomology grew stronger and stronger
Pathological lying, shopping for skivvies, bungling kindergarten-level questions on civics ....
Finally Election Day came on November 4th, balmy to the south and frigid up north
They came and used pencils
They came and punched chads
Piles of ballot-stuffed packages, boxes and bags
And until the very last of the counting was through, Sarah thought surely she’d keep her retinue
But something happened that night, something simple and plain
With hope, votes were cast for Obama, Barack Hussein
“How could it be so?” She thought and she whimpered
She fingered her suitcases, in which Versaces had lingered
“I whipped them to frenzy, my lies got out that base. I was tougher than the guy who shot his friend in the face.
I told them of taxes, of terrorist pals, of communist guys and socialist gals.”
She whined and thought of all her tireless sliming
“I thought I’d found a way to keep his poll numbers from climbing!”
She pursed her face together under several grand of coiffing
She thought of the outrageously beautiful clothes she’d be doffing
She grumped and she shrieked and she tried hard to plot.
“I sure the heck haven’t done this all for naught.”
But when she ventured out next with Repub governor brothers
They scattered at her sight, with visible shudders
She sucked down drinks by the pool , while in quite a stew
The guys avoided her as if she exuded moose poo
Back to Alaska she steamed before Thanksgiving
(Not the job she wanted, but at least it’s a living.)
Pardoning a turkey whose pals were grotesquely slayed
While in her Burberry scarf and mini she sashayed
So, we’ve just got to be thankful she’s all yours, because you elected this…..lass
The rest of us said we’d just as soon pass
Have a feast to end a long national fright
Happy Thanksgiving to all Mudpups, and to all a good night
