Voices from the Flats – Geoffrey Dunn
One wonders how much gall Sarah Palin can muster in the face of yet another Alaska tragedy. In the aftermath of the fatal plane crash in rugged western Alaska that took the lives of former U.S. Senator Ted Stevens and four others earlier this week, Palin described Stevens to her sycophantic Fox News colleague Greta [...]
Voices from the Flats – Sarah Palin’s Oil Regulation Lies
By Geoffrey Dunn Sarah Palin has been busted for so many lies in the past year and a half, it’s become nearly impossible to keep track of them all.

Twin Tidbits from Palin Book Authors.
Palin Throws Bus Under the Bus In a display of almost poetic metaphorical beauty, Sarah Palin has now thrown the bus…under the bus. That’s right, she’s now given up (at least in part) the Rogue on Wheels; the bus of the people; the Palin Express, in favor of winging around the country on a $4000/hr. [...]
Palin to Media – “Quit Findin’ Things Out!”
Well Palin’s book is not even out yet, but the dam has burst. The floodgates are open. The rogue has hit the fan. Why? Because something has happened that Sarah Palin, her ghostwriter Lynn Vincent and her editor never anticipated. That darn media is at it again, only this time they’ve sunk to a new [...]
A Year of Sarah Palin. What a Long, Strange Trip It’s Been.
[This article is cross-posted at The Huffington Post] What a difference a year makes.

He had a strange feeling he’d heard all this somewhere before…..(except in English)….. (insert harp music [...]
For Every Explosion There is An Equal and Opposite Implosion. (for Sarah Palin)
Well, it may not be Newton’s Third Law of Motion, but it sure seems to be true today. Mt. Redoubt, the famous Alaska volcano which sits right across Cook Inlet from Anchorage and the surrounding area has been exploding for the last 24 hours. And now, in a bizarre demonstration that the universe is in [...]
Bits and Pieces and Catching Up…
There’s a passage from the Lewis Carroll poem The Walrus and the Carpenter that seems to sum up the last couple of days. If you substitute “things AKM wanted to blog about” in place of “oysters” it’s right on the money. Four other Oysters followed them, And yet another four; And thick and fast they [...]
