Sarah Palin, the wildly popular governor of Alaska with a following so fucking enormous that an amazing fifteen (15!) supporters from a metropolitan area containing close to 19 million (19,000,000!) people turned out to defend her and her children from a mouth-raping late-nite comedian, has some legal bills that she needs to pay. So supporters, led by Conservatives4Palin (with an assist from Team Sarah) are holding a seven-day webathon to raise a half-million dollars ($500,000!) for the plucky just-like-you frontier hockey-mom she-bear aerial-wolf-killing mavericky language-mangler.
We’re in Day 4, so how’s it goin’?:
Hmph.
Since, according to John Hawkins, Sarah Palin is "the odds-on favorite at this point to become the first woman president" you would think that lobbyists would be lining up to get a piece of that action early and the money would flow like water, and contributions like a mighty stream.
Go figure.
On the other hand, ninety-two thousand dollars ($92,000!) is nothing to sneeze at. That’s enough to get you through Neiman-Marcus and, at least, through the shoe department at Saks with maybe enough left over to update your slutty flight attendant MILFY Governor pitbull with lipstick first woman President look at Sephora.

Hmmm,
$92,000/4 days= $23,000*7days=$161,000. Which leaves about $339,000 short. Better get movin there!
Perhaps putting a time limit,in hindsight, was not a good idea.
Although…… I’ve timed out several times tryin to get on “money down a rathole,” er conservatives4palin dot com. Perhaps I spoke too soon.

I wandered by. It was more like 25 or 30. Damn liberal media underestimates the mighty Palin forces!
$92K in four days is, as you say, nothing at which to sneeze.
But hey, pubbies – you’re donating money for someone who is not hurting, financially, to pay off a bunch of TRIAL LAWYERS. Doesn’t that seem kind of pointless and wasteful and stuff?
They’re going to retire her legal debt? Well then, hey, give me some of that money. I’d like to retire, too.
Is there any description — anywhere — of what this “legal debt” consists of?
Defense of shoplifting charges? Filing harrassing lawsuits against critics? 174 copies of “Make Your Own Will” software?
I mean, shouldn’t the contributors know what they’re “buying”?
T-bogg just keyboard-raped our future Commander-in-Chief (MILF edition).
I’d fly out to protest in your yard, but for those damded, beastly Bassets.
Hmmm…. “contributions like a mighty stream”…
Is that the image they were going for when they chose a graphic of the state of Alaska slowly filling up with piss?
I’m sorry, but that graphic looks to me like Alaska is slowly but surely filling up with piss… what an apt analogy for the banshee of the north and her abuse of that great state. Pay some bills? Can’t she just cook the books like she did with her tanning bed, or flip the food stamps collected by her extended tribe of delinquents and layabouts?
Oh, I’m sorry, Sarah, was that too out line? What — you gonna get the Vermont chapter of “rabid wingnuts against everything” on my case? Ooh, scary…
-Ha, grassroot, you beat me to it by a second! The great bedpan of the tundra…
And I should pay Caribou Barbie’s legal debt for her because…?
:crickets:
Where’s MY motherfucking TARP check? Whatta I gotta do, open a brokerage and rob some people first? Call it legal fucking defense debt, ya want, Just fucking pay me, ya know? Jesus H. fucking Christ.
Has anyone suggested a “value added tax” on the rape kits victims have to pay for?
If Governor Palin needs to defend herself against over $500,000 worth of “frivolous legal complaints,” shouldn’t the dreaded Librul MSM have been able to dredge up at least one of the summonses for said frivolous complaints?
Of course with Ziegler providing PR for Palin, and since respondeat superior is an entrenched legal doctrine, Palin may just be the “deep pockets” for whatever comes out of John’s mouth….
Please feel free to sock me in the mouth if I ever donate to anyone’s “legal defense fund,” Republican or Democrat. Let the PACs and oil companies bail Palin out.
Press and lookie-loos don’t count.
So, this is just what people claimed to have donated to some other fund? Heh.
“Screaming John” Hawkins insists that SP would be fine with us D.C. types if she’d “hunted foxes in her youth.” Seems to me that Palin has plenty of hunting experience to brag on, why mention that? Oh, I forgot–just logging onto Pajamas makes your brain leak out of your ears.
So there I am, reading this Tbogg post, and I croll down to the image of the webathon page, and I said “Hmph!” as I assessed the apparent fail in their march to save Caribou Barbie from the hell of debt. Then I scrolled further, and I see that Tbogg wrote “Hmph” right below that graphic, which freaked me out a little bit; am I being assimilated?
Resistance is futile.
It’s not piss, it’s filling up with Yellow Elephants. They will then proceed to produce the yellow liquid.
