It seems that Trailer Park Aimee Semple McSnowbilly has a movie coming out called Triumph Of The Shrill (sequel to be called Triumph Of The Shrill, Also II) as the result of giving some guy in all access backstage pass to the thrill ride that has been her life. I won’t give out any spoilers but this part is pretty awesome:
Bannon dramatizes the theme of Palin’s persecution at the hands of her enemies in the media and both political parties, a notion the former governor has long embraced. Images of lions killing a zebra and a dead medieval soldier with an arrow sticking in his back dramatize the ethics complaints filed by obscure Alaskan citizens, which Palin has cited as the primary reason for her sudden resignation in July of 2009.
While you may think this is just the last gasp of a past-her-freshness-date narcissistic famegoblin, there are people who think that this is the time, this is the moment, that we have all been waiting for when good and evil have their final apocalyptic slap fight to the death:
Some things on my mind at this hour:
1. This is a masterstroke. Everyone has been caught off guard. The Lefties are totally flummoxed. They expected to dominate the news with Bailey and the Caller story, now its SARAH IS COMING.
2. Washington will be in complete turmoil. They thought they might get Sarah to reconsider. and stay out. She’s not. She’s coming in. The Donor Class now knows that she will be in the game. This frustrates Mittens, TPaw, and most of all, the Bush Family.
3. This tells me something else: Palin has her TO&E almost ramped and ready. There is more behind the scenes than we know. State by state websites are probably ramped up, using O4P as the skeletal front. The fundraising machine is probably amped and ready. The FEC papers are filled out and ready to file.
4. Her position papers, some of them genuinely radical, are ready to go.
5. Everyone, and I do mean everyone, prepare for genuine, on the ground, protracted infantry warfare. This will be All Eastern Front, All The Time.
Expect this to be an extremely long and protracted effort that will take up the next 18 months of our lives. The Country is Worth It.
Remember, people gave their lives so we could bang away on a computers and vote our consciences. McCain spent five years in a box so we could do this stuff.
Do not forget who made the next 18 months possible. Men who laid down their lives at places like Gettysburg, Chancellorsville, Belleau Wood, Midway, Peleileu, the Chosin Resevoir, Khe Sanh, and Fallujah, made it possible for us to fight for the life of our country.
Oh, and don’t forget to seek God’s guidance and fortification in prayer. I intend to do that. Haven’t done much of it lately. That’s a part of my life that needs to change. Sarah’s example is a good one.
The road ahead for Palin, her family, her team, and for us, is a long and bitter one. But there have been tougher, blacker days. Mr. Churchill spoke to the King’s Subjects for the first time as Prime Minister on May 19, 1940 on the BBC. The British Expeditionary Force had just been unceremoniously expelled from the Continent, courtesy of the Panzertruppen. France was well on its way to becoming a German satrapy. And all of England would come under the ferocious assault of the Deutches Luftwaffe within a month.
Chruchill was stern in his address. He did not mince words. He told his fellow subjects of the enormity of the task at hand, and of the apparent imminence of invasion of the British Isles. Having made his speech, he finished with a peroration that has come down to the ages and I believe applies here:
“Today is Trinity Sunday. Centuries ago words were written to be a call and a spur to the faithful servants of Truth and Justice: ‘Arm yourselves, and be ye men of valour, and be in readiness for the conflict; for it is better for us to perish in battle than to look upon the outrage of our nation and our altar. As the will of God is in Heaven, even so let it be.’”
So it’s going to like The Stand, but with a plague of stupid instead…

Oh, dear God. This must have something to do with the Rapture fail. Some kind of punishment for all of us heretics, heathens and atheists.
They really do hyperventilate, don’t they?
I like the fantasies in fevered thought #3. He just knows that these things are happening right now. They must be.
Wow, sign me up. Er… we ARE going to be paid to watch it, aren’t we? I mean, you know, 2 hours is a chunk of our lives we’re never going to get back, so none of that nickle and dime minimum wage stuff. Fifty bucks an hour or it’s no go. BTW, where do I send the bill?
I have no doubt it will be as super awesome and wildly successful as Atlas Shrugged Part 1.
P.S. Washington Puggies are already in turmoil—it’s called old people get pissed when you fuck with their medicare.
Are they talking about the same Sarah Palin I see on my teevee? The Quintessential Queen of Quit is not going to go through The Battles of Thermopylae, Waterloo, Stalingrad, Bunker Hill, Stirling Bridge, Gallipoli, Jutland, Verdun, Yavin 4, Hoth, and Helms Deep to get the nomination. She couldn’t even fight the battle of “Obscure Alaskan Citizens with Ethics Complaints” without giving up her Governorship. Who’s her running mate? Brave, Brave Sir Robin?
We few, we happy few, we band or morans! Palin/Sir Robin 2012
Yep, she and her family are prepared to fight like the Eastern Front, as long as a couple of obscure citizens don’t file any kind of petty ethics complaints against her. Then I’m afraid she’ll be sidelined with a serious case of Butthurt.
In other words, what the guy in front of me said.
Oh, also, too also: “The Undefeated“????? I believe that not only has Palin lost some Alaskan elections in the past, but she was also very much defeated as Vice-Prez. Not to mention being a beauty pagent runner up. The first of many times she and her family have lost out to Negroes.
I wonder if he actually changes into all those uniforms on a rotating basis each day before he types. I’m not sure some of them would go with Cheeto dust so well, though it might set off the blue of Revolutionary era threads nicely.
So wait, Gettysburg? I thought Gettysburg to these guys was a triumph of evil big government forces against real patriots. As I understand it that’s where soldiers laid down their lives so that you couldn’t enslave other human beings, not so that future fat people could type stupid things in basements.
That comment from retards4palin is really something else: “masterstroke… coming in… ramped and ready… protracted… extremely long… bang away… men who laid down… haven’t done much of that lately… long & bitter… tough & blacker… ferocious assault… enormity… arm yourselves…”
AAAAHHHmmmm…. was it good for you, too?
Should be “we band OF morans” damn typos…
Mmmmmmmmmmmm…Lisa Ann for President!
Always with the military imagery. Is this ‘Bannon’ a vet? Veterans are a scarce commodity in Wingnuttia,altough the chicken-hawk poseurs are quick to don the mantle and sally forth into the maw of conflict. On the internet, of course. With keyboards.
If ‘Bannon’ is indeed a fellow vet, dude- the VA has really good health care services; psychological counseling, state of the art medicines, drug & alcohol addiction treatment. That government-run healthcare stuff works just fine. You should check it out. You should enlist, just to get those services. You need them.
Palin has her TO&E almost ramped and ready… State by state websites are probably ramped up, using O4P as the skeletal front… The FEC papers are filled out and ready to file.
The bizarre military references are explained by this. The evocative acronyms and phrases like “ramped and ready” make them feel like they’re doing something bigger than propaganda — something like war, only without physical effort or danger. The Keyboard Kommandos are back!
Wait…
You mean that extended quote wasn’t someone mocking the whole Palin phenomenon?
They weren’t kidding?
Oh shit. I think I’m going to be sick.
When he says “all Eastern Front all the time,” does he mean the Allied front against the Axis? Or the Axis front against the Soviets? Surely he means the former; not self-aware enough to realize how much his side resembles the latter.
No, they weren’t kidding. The 101st fightin’ keyboarders are back, cheetos and all [I think that is what Jesus' General named them], although I prefer goldfish and cheese nips when I indulge.
Sarah’s screech brigade is out because of the new book out. Not flattering. And those ethics complaints are still being litigated, just dragged out extensively, so she hasn’t been “cleared of all of them” by any stretch. That’s even before the so-called “wild ride” gets fully discussed.
Any political adviser worth their salt would make it clear that the oppo research on Sarah is damning, even before she opens her mouth on the campaign trail, and you can’t really hide the POTUS candidate.
My bet is a Petraeus candidacy hatched at the GOP convention.
Pet peeve: I don’t think that people should be disparaged because they reside in trailer parks. If we’re gonna generalize, the people who live in mansions are probably less admirable.
According to his bio at the In the Face of Evil website, Bannon was in the Navy for seven years.
He was also at Goldman Sachs (and Pillages). Why am I not surprised?
Ok, you got some ‘splainin’ to do about that graphic. This must come from the deep TBogg archives. Is she sitting on a roof rack?
Movie title suggestions, please use caution if consuming spillables.
“Do not forget who made the next 18 months possible. Men who laid down their lives at places like Gettysburg, Chancellorsville, Belleau Wood, Midway, Peleileu, the Chosin Resevoir, Khe Sanh, and Fallujah, made it possible for us to fight for the life of our country.”
Walter Sobchak much?
(For all of us Big Lebowski fans.)
Gettysburg (eked out a victory and then squandered the chance to destroy the Army of Northern Virginia), Chancellorsville (a crushing defeat for the Federals due to the fact that Lee had balls and good commanders and Joe Hooker froze like a Republican being startled by a black man in the 7-11), Belleau Wood (a battle fought at the tail end of the first murderous conflict of the 20th century against a foe who was down and ready to be out), Midway (code-breakers allowed Navy ships to catch the Japanese off-guard), Peleileu (considered by many to be a crime committed by Navy and Marine commanders who sacrificed the lives of thousands of Marines in an attack on an island that had lost both its tactical and strategic importance weeks before the assault took place), the Chosin Resevoir (a bitter rout of American forces at the hands of the Chinese and a debacle brought on by huge failures in intelligence and bickering among theater commanders), Khe Sanh (strategically it had no impact what so ever, just like the entire fucking war), and Fallujah (gave us a great wartime photo of a bedraggled Marine smoking a cigarette, reminiscent of Willie and Joe).
(gave us a great wartime photo of a bedraggled Marine smoking a cigarette…) also too, smoking Blackwater contractors.

Yea, the rest of the rant is the usual right wing war blather, but this one had me confused. My guess is the author means the Eastern Front of Germans vs. Russians. If so, I’m assuming he is not equating the Palin Army to the Commies, so the fascists it is. How did that work out?
Onward Palin Soldiers, marching as to war! But not really!
And my movie title choice, the one that really defines the self delusion of these fools is;
Ishtar
I thought that John McCain spent five years in that prison so that I could find pho and banh mi on nearly every street corner.
Wasn’t that the “Nailin’ Palin” movie that played some of the finer establishments? It seems to have that level of artistic value, and comments about it made the rounds in ’08. No, I haven’t watched it. Sheesh.
You were right – glad I kept my cup of water far away from my mouth. My favorite (so far – the commenters are keeping them coming): “In What Respect Charlie and the Chocolate Factory”
With you all the way on that. My parents (91 and 85 years old) just had to move into a mobile home after losing their investment in a house in a “senior development” (and the next-door neighbors underwent a home invasion robbery). Snowbilly Snooki isn’t fit to clean my mother’s toilet.
I’m not even sure I understand the point of this…project. Anybody who would pay money and sit through a movie-length campaign commercial is already a fanatic Palin supporter without a life. How would this help increase her support?
I still am not convinced she’s going to run. She’ll certainly pretend to run, much like Trump is doing, to make sure the big paychecks keep rolling in. She’d have to be crazy (I mean, crazier than she actually is) to run in this election. She loses to freaking Kucinich for God’s sake. She has to know this does not end well for her and losing this election will cement her for all eternity in the public mind as a loser who cannot win on the national level. More likely, she’ll use this movie to keep her in the public eye and keep getting those 7 figure appearance checks and she’ll wait til 2016.
The “Eastern Front” is not a good metaphor for Sarah.
Her side lost.
I have always believed that, and I have not changed my mind.
Humor is hard to explain. The suggested title that made me really laugh was Jackass 4. So many good ones though.
It’s funnier with the typo! Goes with “morans”.
IMO, you win the thread!

Does “bang[ing] away on a computers (sic)” have anything to do with web porn?
Thanks, Origuy @ 19. I didn’t perform the due diligence, well, ’cause the 7 month old L’il Creaturette won’t let me.
I figured he might have been a vet- looks like he fulfilled his ROTC committment and moved on to greener pastures. I didn’t think serving during the Iranian hostage crisis was so horrific for anyone not being held hostage (or on that failed rescue mission). I might be wrong. At least the fightin’ keyboarders got a real officer leading them!
Eastern Front? Panzertruppen? Deutsches (sic-not quite real German, but who’s counting?) Luftwaffe? My bet is that this guy’s fantasy is Sarah in one of those sexy Nazi outfits, like Ilsa, She-Wolf of the SS.
Wow.
Delusions of grandeur don’t get much grandeur than that.
“Everyone, and I do mean everyone” — that made me laugh. Such an earnest, deluded little soldier trying to rally his troops. Also, too, “this is a masterstroke”. Just how stupid do you have to be to believe this? I have taught the mentally handicapped and they operated at a much higher level. This is profound willful ignorance.
I think that’s what’s known as “exposition”, not to mention “too much information”.
Alternate titles:
Triumph of the Swill
Triumph of the Shill
Triumph of the Ill Will
Triumph of the Wasilla Pill
Triumph of the Grifter’s Till
Geez Sarah, give Ragin’ Todd a break! He’s trying to cut back on anger and massage therapists and you go and call him “that tragedy”? WTF?
Mentl
Just for the sake of completeness:
… Inside a Navy ship, he assaulted a sailor who whistled in a way that reminded Miller of a rocket-propelled grenade.[1] On November 10, 2005, he was medically discharged with a “personality disorder”, exactly one year after his iconic picture made worldwide news.[1]
Wikipedia
Sweet
Once again, satire fails in the face of events.
There is no way to mock these people.
I just got banned from Wingnuts4Palin for stating how exciting watching a train wreck can be… I also screamed SPARTA and WOLVERINES, just a little bit.
Interestingly enough, 400+ comments have been moderated from that thread. I admire their diligence.
I had a master stroke just reading that.
Will it really hurt us to underestimate these boobs?
That cons4palin bit is even better if you imagine John Lithgow reading it.
@rugger9
Too late for Petraeus…he’s working for That One now.
he was medically discharged with a “personality disorder”, exactly one year after his iconic picture made worldwide news.[1]
Poor exploited sod.
What do you mean “fail”? I now firmly believe that The Rapture happened – surely this Hellish experience could only happen to the hopeless sinners left behind…
Just like watching Jeebus get the bloody shit kicked out of him in The Passion of the Christ would make the whole world realize that fundamentalist Christianity R00LZ!!1!!!1!!. Also.
Repubs have given up on the Presidential race. they know it’s a done deal.
i think it’s moving forward (her campaign) b/c of the NY state rep loss…they do NOT want to lose the HOUSE of reps.
the repubs need to energize their base to get to the polls to win local and state and House elections. w/out her, no one will show up. and without the House being repub, the obstruction will stop.
she’s the only way after the paul ryan plan medicare fail.
they do NOT care about the presidential. that has already been conceded!
Not so sure about that. One thing to remember about Petraeus is that he’s an opportunist, and the GOP needs a candidate that isn’t ridiculous in the first five minutes. Petraeus won’t survive the oppo if it has time, since he presided over the “lost” 9 billion dollars from the C130, the “lost” AK47s which probably went to Mookie, Abu Ghraib, electrocuted soldiers in showers (for which no one has been held accountable), tangential blame for Tillman’s coverup, and so on. I see Petraeus being summoned at the convention, within a day or two of resigning to “spend time with his family” in the GOP-approved code.
Correctomundo. Whoever ends up as the nominee has to know they’ve been designated 2012′s sacrificial lamb (Mitt, guess what, you get to be Bob Dole next year). That’s why all the declareds so far are all back benchers, including Newt.
Anyone heard from Jeb lately? He’s waiting for 2016. You can bet Sarah will be back. Throw in the rest of the usual winger suspects (Huck, both Pauls, Timpaw, PeeWee Ryan) and you’ll get quite a primary extravaganza.
Of course, all bets are off
ifwhen the Democrats throw the ReThugs a grand bargain medicare lifeline.3. This tells me something else: Palin has her TO&E almost ramped and ready. There is more behind the scenes than we know. State by state websites are probably ramped up, using O4P as the skeletal front. The fundraising machine is probably amped and ready. The FEC papers are filled out and ready to file.
4. Her position papers, some of them genuinely radical, are ready to go.
5. Everyone, and I do mean everyone, prepare for genuine, on the ground, protracted infantry warfare. This will be All Eastern Front, All The Time.
You can hear the furious fapping as he writes #3. He probably stopped numbering after #5 because he had to take a break and find a dirty sock to clean up with.
Please tell me this is all a work of fiction…all I have to say is that whoever typed up this screed is a seriously deluded person, verging on insanity. Also, too, it’s GOOD to want things. Does not mean you’re going to get them, but everybody needs a goal. h/t to the landlord; “Trailer Park Aimee Semple McSnowbilly” is the real “master stroke” here! Bravo!!
Checking in to claim credit for that one.
Glad you got a laugh.
…or maybe after typing Panzertruppen.
Late getting here, but lemme say:
Whenever these idiots predict things–and especially when they get all hot and bothered, and write with passion and vigor–take advantage of the moment to fine-tune your GPS apps by locating their heads up their asses. They’re always wrong.
Expect this to be an extremely long and protracted effort that will take up the next 18 months of our lives. The Country is Worth It.
Uh-huh. And what will this clown say when Sister Sarah either a) announces up front that she will not run, or b) drops out when the numbers prove to be as hilariously “disappointing” as they almost certainly will?
Again, and as always: for these people, there is no difference between politics and religion. Both enable them to get all excited, to get dressed up and attend group functions, and cheer and chant psalms of praise and salvation, based on nothing but wishful thinking and mutual reinforcement.
