Psychopaths don’t blink and lying comes naturally to them.

She remembered to use McCain’s name first this time. Did Caribou Barbie get a little trip to the woodshed?

“Reform,” in this case, means they’re going to make all those bad Wall Street zillionaires promise really hard that they are never going to do it again, and only then will they give them the Social Security money to play with.

Sometime, someone should really ask them why, if McCain knew all this bad stuff was going to happen, he never bothered to try to stop it or do anything at all about it. Come on, media hairdos, neither one of them talks to you anyway, so it’s not like they can take away your “access.”

In a theme Palin would pound home, GOP Chairman Jim Greer said Obama and his running mate, Delaware Sen. Joe Biden, have records of voting for higher taxes and have said on the campaign trail that they would increase regulation of financial markets.

Gosh, regulation of fiancial markets would be bad for investment bankers’ conspicuous consumption–er–CAPITALISM!

September 19, 2008—

It had been a long time coming, but in the last week, with the collapse of the investment bank Lehman Brothers and the distress sale of another, Merrill Lynch, thousands of jobs and some 700-billion dollars in wealth, in stock, simply disappeared.

. . .

“The whole era of conspicuous consumption and free spending and luxury ended as of this week,” said Robert Frank, Wall Street Journal reporter and author of “Richistan,” a book about America’s super-rich.

. . .

“It was almost like they had created a whole separate world,” said Frank. “They were a parallel country of the rich.”

“A lot of those people will have to sell their homes, they’re going to cut back on the private jets and the vacations. They may even have to take their kids out of private school,” said Frank. “It’s a total reworking of their lifestyle.”

He added that it’s going to be no easy task.

“It’s going to be very hard psychologically for these people,” Frank said. “I talked to one guy who had to give up his private jet recently. And he said of all the trials in his life, giving that up was the hardest thing he’s ever done.”

Don’t forget, TBogg, that the Duggars, I mean Palins, may very well have gone to Epcot, which would increase her foreign policy knowledge approximately by eleventy.

Is Palin, Bush with Boobs?

This woman is dumber than a box of hammers. Only motherfuckers in this country who are stupider are the retard morons who’re gonna vote for her.

Yep. Unfortunately, that appears to be 40 percent of the population. It probably includes a few borderline competent people who just don’t like their leaders to be smarter than them, either way, it’s all just profoundly depressing to think about on a Monday morning.

The thirteen and a half-minutes spent in the It’s A Small World ride seem like an eternity. I think that you’re discounting Palin’s time spent in learning about foreign affairs.

As a bonus, she got to hear that catchy theme song from the ride. The campaign should substitute “It’s a Small World, After All” for “Barracuda”, and play it over, and over, and over, and over…

Now, I’m not saying it’s not true what the fire chief is saying, but 60,000 people in a “picturesque town square”? Myth Alaska pulled almost as many people to listen to her babblings from the padded cell as Obama did during the Democratic National Convention?

I can haz photographics?

How’d they cram all of those walkers into such a small space?

Wow!!! Palin is just a total senility magnet, isn’t she? Maybe she has a kickin’ pureed moose stew recipe that makes all the seniors weak kneed.

Oh–and how fabulous for the Fort Meyers News! Palin draws her biggest crowd ever and they scoop everyone—cause 600 versus 60,000, same thing, right???

I say if we’re going to send someone to Washington to shake things, we send this guy.

BTW, the GOP chairman’s name is Jim Greer Greer?

Krusty and Sarah are coming to my area today. I intend to make them pay dearly for the insult. This is my town Mofos. I’ll be the one in the red hat and taser darts in my ass. If I dont post here tomorrow AM, will you pass the hat for bail?

Just went back and looked at photos on the Fort Meyers super Shopper’s website. Of the 23 photos of Palin and her pimped out children only 1 (maybe 2, if you’re feeling generous) actually shows the “crowd” that showed up. And it’s of people crammed into the Epcotesque square, and is clearly trying to use this to make attendance appear far greater than it was.

It’s especially apparent if one looks at the pictures of Obama on mudflats, where he is clearly dwarfed by the full capacity crowd of 20,000 plus.

Come on people, think about it. It’s easy to see 60,000 people when you use wingnut arithmetic. It’s the same mathematics that’s responsble for our current financial situation. Just close your eyes and think of a number.

The campaign should substitute “It’s a Small World Brain, After All” for “Barracuda”

Fixed.

After EMI sent McCain a cease-and-desist letter over the usage of the song Barracuda,the song was played during the convention. Ann & Nancy Wilson then made a statement to the press:

“Sarah Palin’s views and values in NO WAY represent us as American women. We ask that our song ‘Barracuda’ no longer be used to promote her image. The song ‘Barracuda’ was written in the late 70s as a scathing rant against the soulless, corporate nature of the music business, particularly for women. (The ‘barracuda’ represented the business.) While Heart did not and would not authorize the use of their song at the RNC, there’s irony in Republican strategists’ choice to make use of it there.”

Added Republican dumb-fuckery: It’s another “Born in the USA” moment. The song Barracuda is a rant against the greedy assholes of the corporate music machine.

Is Palin, Bush with Boobs?

Haha. Considering his supporters, Bush is Bush with Boobs.

Palin at Disney World? Walt’s head is spinning in its cryogenic cylinder.

That’s Just What I Said

It is indeed “a world of tears,” my friends…
