		<description>&lt;p&gt;It’s funny you should post a picture of Luanne and Peggy. Palin’s voice reminds me of Luanne’s beauty school teacher.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;“And if he does, will Palin suddenly excuse herself, go pick up Baby Trig, plop him in her lap, and deploy him as her Shield Against Attacks Against Sarah and Motherhood By The Mean-dia.”&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;What makes you think she won’t have Trig on her lap from the start?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;My guess is Gibson will uphold the lofty standards of American journalism and get the bottom of the mystery about Sarah’s beauty pageant career.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;p&gt;It’s worse — she’s so obviously not “everywoman,” because she so clearly thinks she’s hot shit.  She _radiates_ prima donna and bully at the same time.  It really gets under my skin.  You can see why the wingnut legions love her so much:  Coulter, Malkin, Palin.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;p&gt;My brother always refers to George as “that weasel”, for writing that book trashing Bubba for lying to him about Monica.    &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I bet that Sean insanityhannity went berserk when he heard that he was not the chosen one.  Can you imagine the hissy fit he threw, sitting there with his chapped lips from all the conservative ass he’s kissed over the years?  He probably unloaded big time on Fox Noise contributor/secret McSame Campaign Dirty Tricks’ Advisor Karl Rove.  When Karl said “STFU Sean or I’ll kill you”, the tantrum ended.  Make that “I’ll have you killed”.  The doughboy doesn’t engage in hand-to-hand.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;p&gt;There have been and will be a lot of elaborate analyses of the next 57 days or so, and all kinds of complicated formulae as to how Palen will fare, including many analogies to Rick Perlstein’s book, &lt;em&gt;Nixonland&lt;/em&gt;, released in May. but the basic pattern is much the same.  Republicans have won all but 3 elections in the years since many readers here have been of age by waging a cultural referendum, and this time, racial bigotry will be part of it writ large.  &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;As Robert Gibbs pointed out on CNN yesterday, Palen is more like Bush than McCain, and former Bush speechwriter Frum drew analogies to Palen and Bush.  &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2008/09/07/sarah-palin-george-bush-i_n_124654.html&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;Palin: Bush in Lipstick&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;
On Saturday, former Bush speechwriter David Frum wrote on his National Review blog, “George W. Bush had very slight executive experience before becoming president. His views were not well known. He won the nomination exactly in the same way that Palin has won the hearts of so many conservatives: by sending cultural cues to convince them that he was one of them, understood them, sympathized with them. So that made everything else irrelevant in 2000 - as it seems again to be doing in 2008.” &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;But in the end, Frum wrote, Bush lacked “important aspects of leadership which is how we got into the mess from which he needed to rescue the country and himself.”&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;p&gt;Gibson has already ruled out asking her anything the least bit probing, keeping up his reputation and competition with King for softball interviews with mindless questions.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Note that Twit Palin takes &lt;strong&gt;no questions from voters or the media &lt;/strong&gt;and I expect that to continue as she tries to run out the clock. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The McCain campaign has done their best to derail and stall the investigation and if Alaska’s Senate Judiciary Committee had a brain they would have already gone to court to get an order to stop her lawyer from taking his own unlilateral depositions.  Interviewing witnesses from the other side is one thing–unilateral depositions are quite another.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://thecaucus.blogs.nytimes.com/2008/09/07/palin-interview-goes-to-abc-news/&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;Gibson does exactly what Glenn Greenwald predicted he would do&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.salon.com/opinion/greenwald/&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;MSM is one big wussie conglomerate; expect nothing from them as to Twit Palin&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description>

		<description>&lt;p&gt;Marie, I believe the SWAT team in Minneapolis dealt with the threat of an Amy Goodman interview in that manly, constitutional and currently very popular way: with a drawn gun and a big army boot. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Meanwhile, &lt;em&gt;“make politicians uncomfortable, to explore evasions, contradictions and vulnerabilities”&lt;/em&gt; just opens up a vast tundra of possibilities: &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;CHARLIE&lt;/strong&gt;: “So, Sarah, you told me before the cameras started rolling that you’d always wanted to do it with a celebrity in the back seat of a snowmobile. You couldn’t have meant Sambo Obama, but can I perhaps take you up on the offer?”&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;SARAH&lt;/strong&gt;: “What are you talking about?!?”&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;CHARLIE&lt;/strong&gt;: “C’mon, darling, don’t be coy now, we all know how you and the ‘First Dude’ got together — it’d be fun.”&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;SARAH&lt;/strong&gt;: “I’m armed, you know…”&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;CHARLIE&lt;/strong&gt;: “– And, yet, so vulnerable. I like that in a woman. We’ll be right back to talk about your predilection for big, furry mammals…”&lt;/p&gt;</description>
