The best quote on Palin’s speech last night…
…comes from someone who doesn’t think highly of her: It was that good. No, she’s not qualified, and the substance was thin, but my God — that was perhaps the greatest bit of political theatre I have ever witnessed. Her critics in the media and in the opposition may regret having piled on quite so […]
“US Weekly” editor gets shredded by Megyn Kelly
US Magazine of course had its infamous cover story this week on Sarah Palin, titled “Babies, Lies, and Scandal”. Bradley Jacobs, the senior editor for US Weekly, has his head handed to him by Megyn Kelly at Fox News by virtue of the fact that she actually read the story: Hat tip to The Jawa […]
A letter from Iraq
Just got in today’s mail a letter from our son Jon, currently stationed in al Rutbah in Iraq; here’s the text: ============= August 22, 2008 Mom, Dad.. I wanted to write y’all a quick letter while I’ve got some downtime here at the IP Station. It’s now Day 50 of our deployment and so far […]
“What’s her real experience? Sure, Alaska’s a state…”
The title above is from a comment on a previous post. The graphic below is from Suitably Flip: And while it’s true that Delaware has about 180,000 more people than Alaska, neither Obama nor Biden have ever been governor (or mayor) of anything. Plus, Alaska’s state budget (not to mention its government and infrastructure) [PDF] […]
New Palin quote
As reported by William Kristol over at The Weekly Standard: McCain aides whose judgment I trust are impressed by Sarah Palin. One was particularly amused by this exchange: A nervous young McCain staffer took it upon himself to explain to Palin the facts of life in a national campaign, the intense scrutiny she’d be under […]
More Palin images
All courtesy of S. Weasel: Sort of sums up my feelings, as do the next two (color versions of Stoaty’s early B&W graphic): I’m going to put this one in my sidebar. Here’s the same graphic with a black border: Heh. ..bruce w..
The Incoherence of the Incoherent
[with apologies to Averroes (aka Ab ‘l-Wald Muammad ibn Amad ibn Rushd)] I have been a registered Democrat since turning 18 in 1971, though over the past 20 years, I have often wondered why. The best answer: every time I consider registering as a Republican, some major Republican (or group thereof) does something so profoundly […]
Palin images of the day
From Creative Minority Report: Hat tip to the always-worth-reading American Digest. UPDATED 0854 MDT OK, I ran across this photo of Palin’s parents in their home (from National Journal Hotline): Heck, I don’ t hunt (or like to hunt), but this just cracks me up. I don’t know what’s more fun: having Sarah Palin on […]
Palin in comparison
S. Weasel made the poster to the left; I may try to get a larger version to stick onto our car. Also, because they deserve more attention, two items which I tacked onto my previous post plus a few new ones: Jeff Emanuel has a detailed and — IMHO — rather devastating “tale of the […]
