HA!

SHOCKER: Palin comes off the plane clutching Trig. "Hey look, I have a little special baby! TAKE MY PICTURE, BITCHES!" That kid is so a political accessory for this woman.

Speaking of sign-holding, anybody seen the frat-pledges holding their pink Palin pushers for pay?

Calling Joe Biden an elitist makes him look like a total fuckass.

Actually I think he said something along the lines of "arugula eating..."

What a puke

Anybody see her getting off the plane, holding the baby with one hand across his back? His feet were flailing and I was cringing thinking she was going to drop him down the steps. Cripes, can you imagine that on live tv?

Has everyone got their Palin Bingo cards?

www.palinbingo.com

I printed out three. The whole family will play!

Hey baby, we got this place to ourselves for a minute-

-TOO LATE! I knew it.

Shall I step out for a moment?
I hate to intrude...

You talkin' to me, Jane?

DP- pink Palin Pushers for Pay. Fuck-me pumps? Pedal pushers? Brown acid?

Jane: all of the above.

McCain/Palin supporters: What in the hell is wrong with these people? Seriously.

Skiba - 100% undeniable pure ignorance

OH MY GOD, STRETCH IS GOING OUT OF HIS FUCKING MIND RIGHT NOW! HE'S SALIVATING! HE'S LOSING HIS SHPADOINKLE!

And he's exactly right: Politico's Mike Allen is being a complete douche.

"She needs to demonstrate a minimal level of intellectual capacity".

Jeez, they had to dig a hole to set the bar this role.

Skiba they're drunk and carrying $200 in their pockets from some right wingnut group. They don't care if the signs say I AM STUPID. Okay, maybe they do say that if you hold your tongue just righ

LOL @ MatthewN: "Dig a hole to set the bar"

Thread winner!

I feel like I'm getting ready for the Super Bowl. Seriously, my roommates & I bought junk food & beer. We're so psyched.

lmao

Matthews: "What IS an easy answer for her?"

Asshat: "She didn't want to show her smarts"

psssst--Jane. NC alert. We are everywhere--Jerry Rubin.

My friend and I both agreed that waiting for this has been more exciting than waiting for Christmas.

And I really do love Christmas Time.

Oh my god I would French-kiss Stretch right now, he's making me turgid. That was fucking awesome.

I KNOW!!!! I noticed too!

Tim - I've got that Superbowl feeling too. I'm getting pizza, putting the kid to bed early, and screaming at my tee-vee, huzzah!

Christ, Elvis...stiff breeze, crack of dawn and all that.

What's up, crazy people?

Who is that fucker Matthews just had on? What an idiot.

NC IN THE HIZZEEE

One of them was The Politico's Mike Allen, being a douche. The other was New York Magazine's John Heilemann. Matthews lost his fucking mind. It was gold.

Jane has a dick?

I wouldn't French-kiss Stretch with Elvis' tongue.

Note to Stupid Fucking College Kids: YOU'RE NOT HELPING. Don't bring the "I'm looking for Palin to mess up" bullshit, bring the "I'm looking for Palin to give me a reason to vote for her" for Christ's sake!

I have rum, a pipe and an American made solid ash 35 oz. Louisville Slugger. One way or another, I fear for my television.

Glad its time for Olbermann.

Woo hoo Jane! We do have a serious majority goin' on here (note my lack o' "g"). Maybe this will prevail on Nov. 4!!

I cau'ht the tail end of the interview with Allen/Heilemann - Matthews was goin' nuts!

Cousin, pass that pipe. KO's on. I want his suit to ripple.

Don't take the brown acid.

Early word from Ohio advance voting: Polls are overwhelmed. The tie-dye crowd is coming out and putting the youth freak on the scrutineers.
Bad news.....FOR OBAMA! (/sarcasm)

('scuse me while I giggle into my sleeve)

I have clean pants on hand just in case Biden really fucks up!

Gimme a "G"! Oh, wait, she's 'iven them all to GObama.

Ohhhh...they are showing the Couric interviews again. I have to take shots when I see that now to numb the pain.

So bad she lost Hassleback.. rofl

Even Hasselbeck falls away. HA!

Oh, wait. I was taking shots anyways.

What we have in mind is breakfast in bed for 400,000 man!

Fuckin' eh! All it took was a black man in the White House and I get to live my Wavy Gravy fantasy!

Im hittin' the rum now.

Here's a G for you Jane.

Wavy Gravy. I think I just swooned.

KO says the expectation is now "Startling adequacy." That's exactly right. That's the United States of America.

"me first, country second crowd"

I guess that would be us, guys.

McCain - "Change is coming, change is coming, and some aren't going to like it." Wow...something I actually agree with the troll on.

Y'all think Plouffe gets the Leo McGarry Chair in the West Wing?

Holy shit @ palin on Cheney

I hate it when they reset my blog stats. Vicious downward spike that goes from, "hey...people are reading my stupid shit" to "ah, fuck it! TWO? Back to incessant barking!"

I'm in love with Richard Wolffe. He has such thinly-veiled contempt for us Americans.

I'm sure everyone's seen this but:

I've Debated Sarah Palin More Than 20 Times -- Here's What It's Like

http://www.alternet.org/election08/101011/i%5C%27ve_debated_sarah_palin_more_than_20_times_--_here%5C%27s_what_it%5C%27s_like/

One line says it all:

"Her ability to fill the debate halls with her presence and her gift of the glittering generality made it possible for her to rely on populism instead of policy."

It comes down to ideology! Hell, I'm a dumb-ass and I can argue ideology all day long!

@ Avi: Yeah, we don't even run stats on Clusterdouche!, too fucking depressing. We know no one is reading our stupid shit, we don't need statistics to prove it.

What's your RUM, Ashby? I'm a Bacardi Bat cuz it's all I can get in Formosa. But had my druthers, Appleton Estates.
Do you have a preference, as the cane candy goes?

My daughter calls Richard Wolffe KO's Mini-Me. Look at them side by side.

I'm in love with Richard Wolffe as well.

Somebody tell me how the hell Palin is going to attack Biden on foreign policy? The president of Pakistan likes my legs better than yours?

She doesn't get what the problem was with Cheney shooting some in the face while hunting enclosed quail from a fucking car and then failing to report it for more than 24 hours!! ARRGGGHHHH!

@ Elvis
You've seen 'What About Bob?'
I NEED. I NEEEEED.

I enjoy that Rhum Barbancourt. HAITIAN rum, bitches! You'll see zombies. It's fucking gold.

Cousinavi - I prefer Captain Morgan Spiced Rum but right now all I have is Bacardi Silver. I could drink Captain Morgan straight.

My wife and I love us some What About Bob? Best scene: Dreyfus throws open Bob's car door and shouts "GETTOUTTADACAR!" in one manic hysterical burst. Priceless.

GIMMEGIMMEGIMMEINEEDINEED! Baby steps!

Anyone?? was Terri Schiavo a SC case? Chris??

If Palin says something about Pakistanis wanting us to give them freedom, Im linking the Jeremy Piven video again.

Ah God, Bob was The Shit. I love that movie.

"@ Avi: Yeah, we don't even run stats on Clusterdouche!, too fucking depressing. We know no one is reading our stupid shit, we don't need statistics to prove it."

Elvis,

It's "dumb" in the way Jon Stewart is dumb! Excellent = dumb, or vice-versa.

@ Katin

Platitudes, facts and folksy down home pandering boilerplate bullshit.
Biden has been around long enough to have contradicted himself, the facts and Obama on numerous occasions. The openings are there, and there's no way for Biden to respond except to agree (She's right!), counter attack (He's a bully!), or stick to the facts (She smacked him good and he never even had the balls to swing back!).
Be thankful you're watching from the sidelines and not standing in Joe's shoes.
I want WHARGARBL!
But this is gonna be painful. Curse me if you must, but I'll take bets and lay odds.

Jane - No, SCOTUS refused to issue cert. Four times. Federal District Court is as high as it got.

Jane I think it stayed in the FL courts.

"Anyone?? was Terri Schiavo a SC case? Chris??"

I think Florida Jane! ??????????????????

Federal District Court and the Florida Supreme Court, of course. But SCOTUS denied cert, as well they fucking should have.

I'm a SCOTUS junkie.

What About Bob - BBQ Media Edition: "mmmmmmm mmmmmm mmmm mmmmmmmm mmmmmm oh gawd mmmmmmm"

Ya'll are distractin'. Half the time I don't hear what they're saying on the T.V. because I'm too busy reading this.

Thanks everybody! I just gave up and wikid it and pretty much gleaned that (thanks to my Evelyn Wood classes!). But thanks for confirming my speed read. Hell, if she'd brought it up she woulda won points with her base and not looked quite so STUPID.

Caricature! THAT's the word she stumbled on when Katie suggested "mock"

Distinguishing Sarah Palin's ignorance of every judicial issue by granting her "It never made it to the USSC" is the absolute fucking HEIGHT of "cut you some slack."
She's a RIGHT TO LIFER. Schiavo? Christ! (to be only slightly ironic)
It's not just a failure to name SC cases...it's a failure to have any fucking idea of what is or MIGHT BE before the court!
Not least of which would be the EXXON VALDEZ decision...you know, as Governor of ALASKA.

Palin comes off the plane clutching Trig.

That's just in case she falls, something will protect her face.

Actually, cousinavi, I think it would be fun to be in Joe's shoes. I'd take that bitch down, and I would have to worry about tiptoeing around her gender (I'm a chick) or her motherhood (that too). And I've actually had sex with someone from another country - which gives me wwaaayyyy more foreign policy experience than her.

And don't worry, give me a few more cocktails and I'll be cursing at you and with you. :)

Skiba I have the same problem. Plus Elvis keeps making that funny face and obscene hand gesture while quoting SCOTUS cases.

"First of all, Gwen, I'd like to say how sorry I am to hear about your accident and how becoming that cast and wheelchair are on you. And good luck on your book. You go, sister-girl. Now, about bombing Iran. Just let me say this about that."
Sarah Palin

The debate! Unless Palin visibly shits herself the BBQ media is going to say she won!

Jane I tried to say the same thing as I realized it too. But I had trouble spelling it. Thank you.

Where is Wife of Bear??

Re: RUM

Ladies and gentleman, there are rums, and then there is THE rum. And it would deeply appreciated and returned in Formosan Sorghum booze of equal weight, if any of y'all might Fed-Ex a fella a bottle of Appleton Estates.

Sorry, Jane...I was off reading elsewhere, but, as you know the answer is no. Congress did go rushing back to DC to try to do something about it though. Fucking pricks.

Palin shot her?

I'm sorry, but if you're a grown woman and a fucking governor maybe you shouldn't say "awesome" like a 10th grade cheerleader. She's just a complete asshat.

When I was a hot rocking morning zoo disc jockey, I would open my radio show with the clip of Dr. Marvin screaming, "Bob! Six o'clock, Bob, rise and shine! Bob! Bob! BOB! BOB! GET UP! BOB!..."

Wacky.

I was wondering too, Jane. We're still missing a couple...where's Carl? Has he taken wagers yet on the number of comments we'll get to this evening?

What I really prefer to drink is Bourbon, made right here in Kentucky. But the kind I like is too expensive to have all the time.

@ Katin

I'm IN another country. And half in the bag.
Your fleshy, suggestive talk is liable to get this thread jacked.
Flirt.

Wow! Shots fired at Carl. HooHoo! You're a hoot, Kat.

I thought he was here again! Hi Carl.

I'm a bourbon man too, JMA. Maker's Mark. Lots and lots and lots of Maker's Mark.

KO is making the point I made earlier in my Big Fat Prescient Prediction Machine: That without her rabid cheerleaders in the drunken redneck audience, the crickets are going to kill Palin.

Hey Carl! Glad you're here! I just wanted to be sure that if you were taking bets, I got mine in. We were 10 short of 700 last time - think we'll make it too 1,000 tonight?

Hi Jane. Hello Mr. The Elvis Dingeldein. I'm still holding an ice pack to my nose after that shot from Kat. Hi Kat.

You're listening to the ROCK of the Atlantic...Q one ohfour...EFF EM.
Christ Cesca. You're my bastard twin.

Me likey the whiskey. Neat. Dickel, the old stuff (white label?) used to live at work for our "after 5" until we had that closet alcoholic there who drank it all. (Closet alkies are SO predictable.)

Makers Mark? yuck man

Basil Hayden's or nothing for me.

Carl's on his way home & eating dinner. Elvis is waiting for Jane to post at his blog. Jane's brushing up on Wiki. Avi can't decide between rum & pancakes. Bob's trying to be a genial host and experiment with high tech shit so you all won't be bitchin' about how long it takes posts to show up. JM can't figure out what the fuck to drink. And I have a headache the size of Baltimore.
Try to keep up, people!

Okay...to hell with the Appleton Estates. Can someone send me a donair?

That was goddamn awesome, CEU. This place is aptly named.

Barney Frank to Bill O'Reilly:
You're stupidity gets in the way of us having a rational discussion.
and later:
You don't listen to anything. Or maybe you are listening and you're just too dumb to understand.

Somewhere in this house, someone is watching FOX...

CEU FTW

Hey Mr. The Carl Etc.

TWICE

Dickel, Jane? Goodness, you are in Nawth Kakalacky.

It's all in love, Carl, all in love. Besides, if I had really been trying, it wouldn't be your nose you were holding an ice pack too. :)

Hey Elvis I think you need to craft a new Youtuber scenario for Glenn Cock and Betrayus.

"I'm a bourbon man too, JMA. Maker's Mark. Lots and lots and lots of Maker's Mark."

Lord Calvert gets me closer to THE Lord!

@ Kat - now you're just turning me on.

Laws i's gettin haaawwwwt in heah

Goddamn what channel is Bob watching? Pizza anyone?

Bob they quoted your latest HuffPost piece on the front page of the Boston Metro (and probably other outlets). :)

You could pass for southeast kentucky with that attitude jane.

When you go into SE Kentucky.. you can almost hear dueling banjos in the wind.

I spent a lifetime in the Upper Peninsula one December, and my taste/budget/level of care devolved to Seagram's 7 or bong water by the end of the job.

Just so you all know (and, please, save your weeping and gnashing of teeth until the end of the presentation), I'll be leaving to devote my full attention to the nuances...yes, the nuances.
I shall have no time nor inclination to live blog. When I return, you will all be spent and uninterested in my perspective, so let me say now, before this thing gets into full swing, go fuck yourselves.

Them's tha vapaaas, Jane.

I love that quote from Barney Frank...I think more people that go on O'Reilly should say it.

McCain said that the House should vote against the bailout bill that he just voted for?? Seriously? Did I hear that right?

Jane, I'm betting on a down-do and I saw that you might be thinking up. Matters not if she's wearing those fucking Vulcan ears tonight.

That's just the vodka really kickin' in Jane....I'm starting to feel mine too. Which means my typing and assorted other things are about to go downhill.

Et tu, Avi. Anon.

McCranky is tripping over himself.

Wow...I just saw the clip of McCain on 'Morning Joe.' That's actually really disturbing. He's lost what's remaining of his brain cells.

Weren't the vapors, or the spirits, i twas the flirtin' dahlin.

It'll all be sexist BS and prejudice on Gwen Ifill's part if Palin comes off bad!

Correction - he said Bush should veto the bill he just voted for.
Christ, what an asshole.

Polleeeeez, didn't we see her, gettin off the plane?

Have a lovely time with the nuances, Avi... and since we are fucking ourselves, I expect we will as well.

Avi I'm with ya. Killing my back this way. Computer is at noon and tv at 4 O'Clock. Nobody's passing the heroin so I must sit Over There.

Will check in regularly I'm afraid.

Missed that. What was it up or down or ears or all of the above?

Im sitting on my couch 6 feet from my TV with my laptop on wireless network. No back pain or eye strain.

Oh and rum

(starts collection for laptop for DP)

(thanks. up here in the hills we don't have laptops. just laps. they don't pick up much)

I'm starting to get political wood. A Vice Presidential Debate cbhubby, if you will.

I'm begging you Rach don't talk to fucking Buchanan!!!!!!

That would be "chubby."

Flippin' channels. Bill O' say's it's all on Joe Biden! Palin wins one the "social side"!

Because we ALL agree with Palin's stands on social issues?????????????

Check out the recent history of South Dakota's abortion laws!

I can't leave when Carl's gettin' politically aroused. Shit.

I guess we'll know in 16-17 minutes, Poleeeeeeeeezzzz.

You can leave, DP. Just watch the video on my pay site! AHAHAHA!!!!

Ah, Jane...on one hand a Dickel swillin' redneck, on the other, a steel magnolia who likes flirtin'....you are indeed a woman of many talents.

New thread! Let's go!

Oooh, new thread. These series of tubes are confusing!

Take a moment before this shit gets nuts.
Tracy Chapman and Eric Clapton one my blog, rippin up a duet of Gimme One More Reason...

What a douche-bag! Yes, McDoofus said he would veto the bill he just voted for!
