He was on the ticket, right?The governor of Alaska spent some time in her kitchen this weekend makin’ moose chili and moose hot dogs. Then she sat down with a local reporter and blabbed out a series of words that were mostly English but made zero sense. We will miss her, sort of! She said that no Republican could have won this election, because George Bush has spent the last eight years figuratively standing on the balcony of the nightclub of the Republican brand and drunkenly pissing on the heads of people like Sarah Palin.

At least, that appears to be what she was attempting to imply. It is sort of hard to tell, given Palin’s refusal to OH USE SUBJECTS AND OBJECTS AND VERBS:

I think the Republican ticket represented too much of the status quo, too much of what had gone on in these last eight years, that Americans were kind of shaking their heads like going, wait a minute, how did we run up a 10 trillion dollar debt in a Republican administration? How have there been blunders with war strategy under a Republican administration? If we’re talking change, we want to get far away from what it was that the present administration represented and that is to a great degree what the Republican Party at the time had been representing. So people desiring change I think went as far from the administration that is presently seated as they could. It’s amazing that we did as well as we did.

Oh Jesus. Well, whatever. Also she says she met Tina Fey’s Republican in-laws while she was campaigning.

It’s amazing that we did as well as we did.

She does a fantastic job conveying that one point.

“I think went as far from the administration that is presently seated”

The electorate stayed far from the stench filled bathroom with the backed up toilet where Bush and Co. have been seated.

The Pumpernickel November 10, 2008 at 12:36 pm

If George Bush is the pisser, then Sara Palin is the one serving him alcohol. Translation: People like Sarah Palin are the conservative-pushing, gun-toting, religious right-pandering nutjobs that made it possible for George Bush to be elected in the first place!

Why does she always say “kind of”? ACCEPT REALITY, WOMAN. YOU DID NOT “KIND OF” LOSE.

Quincy Woo November 10, 2008 at 12:38 pm

I know I miss her already. Luckily I just met a few people from Alaska who can keep me in the loop regarding her local hijinks. Who needs all those fancy liberal verbs ‘n’ objects anyway?

PS– you know the picture of “Sarah and her freshly-killed moose?” That was a caribou.

[re=172013]Vewol Mevemont[/re]: You see, on a scale of “fucking horrible” and “absolute failure” the Republicans hovered somewhere around “at least I am alive.”

Doglessliberal November 10, 2008 at 12:39 pm

Gee, maybe the fact that McCain voted with Bush 90% of the time had something to do with it, Sarah? Or that McCain was an utter idiot in picking you to be his VP and thus driving away votes in hordes as they contemplated your “leading” this country after WALNUTS! keeled over from an aneurysm while throwing a tantrum. Or that WALNUTS! ran just about the worst campaign ever and couldn’t pick a consistent message to save his life?

Nah, you’re right, you guys were perfect.

“George Bush has spent the last eight years figuratively standing on the balcony of the nightclub of the Republican brand and drunkenly pissing on the heads of people like Sarah Palin.”

And for eight years they liked it so much that they voted for him twice, chanting, “more pee!”

And she stood up and spoke out against the things the Republican Party stood for… right, never.

Nanks November 10, 2008 at 12:43 pm

Clearly her statements were transcribed incorrectly. They should have read:

I think the Republican ticket represented too much of the status quo, also too much of what had gone on in Ayres these last eight years, that Americans were kind of shakin’ their heads like going, wait a minute, how did we run up a 10 trillion dollar Ayres debt in a Republican administration also? How have there been blunders with war strategy under a Republican administration also? If we’re talkin’ change, we want to get far away from Ayres what it was that the present administration represented and that is to a great degree what the Republican Party at the time had Ayres been representing also. So people desirin change also I think went as far from the administration that is presently seated as they could also. It’s amazin’ that we also did as well as we did also.

donner_froh November 10, 2008 at 12:44 pm

It is really odd to think of her as governor of Alaska instead of the fount of endless humor Sara has been since September. Governors do things like throw people off welfare, close hospitals and destroy infrastructure (Engler-Michigan) or go to jail (many–Illinois) or get shitfaced and act the fool (Gibbons–Nevada).

She doesn’t fit in at all.

m_supercomputer November 10, 2008 at 12:47 pm

I think I am experiencing a moment of empathy for George Bush – imagine how terrible it must be to be a figure of ridicule to even the Sarah Palins of the world! Does even he deserve that? …yes, yes he totally does. Forget I said anything.

Republicans, who used to yammer on all fucking day about “personal responsibility”, seem to spend about ninety percent of their time blaming their fuck-ups on other people.

“That’s baffled me that all of a sudden two years later, again, never having tried to hide anything with either traveling back and forth to Juneau for first family events that were outside the capital city, in bringing Piper and, once in a while, Willow with me also, that anybody would think that I was trying to hide that they came with me”

What she might be saying (one guess is as good as another) is that there was nothing wrong with using public money to fund travel for her entire family as long as she didn’t try too hard to cover it up.

Doglessliberal November 10, 2008 at 12:50 pm

[re=172046]Neon Trotsky[/re]: actually, what happened was, she could not figure out the ballot, much as with the senile folks in FL and the butterfly ballot, so she truly does not know for whom she voted, and thus could not tell us. Either that or she voted for Hopey so McCain would lose and she could throw him under the bus and capitalize on her differences from him in her run for 2012. But that strikes me as too intelligent and calculating for her to figure out.

JadedDIssonance November 10, 2008 at 12:52 pm

[re=172060]Doglessliberal[/re]: She does strike me as a very calculating figure, it’s just that her maths never add up right.

Let’s not cheer her departure just yet. Who knows, maybe she’ll try to get Ted Stevens’ Senate seat…

Apparently someone did a survey last week, and something like 64% of Republicans want her to run again in 2012. I guess after 8 years of Bush, they’re just used to the stupid.

I nominate Caribou Barbie to be President of TeeVee in 2012:

Linda Mann, president of Mann Media, which books celebrities and fashionistas for TV, noted, “Her buzz is incredible. She has car-wreck appeal. You’re compelled to watch, hoping she’ll say the dumbest things possible. I’d propose a show combining her love of fashion and lack of brainpower – ‘Project Dumbway.’ “

For me to take a critique of the Bush Administration seriously, it would help if the person doing it hadn’t tried to ape everything lowbrow and shortsighted about Dubya but without the requisite “intelligence” he displayed. Oh well, here’s hoping Kristol and PNAC2 make her a more credible bullshit vessel for 2012, we’ll probably really need a war with Iran by then.

[re=172063]JadedDIssonance[/re]: I agree with you on that one. Then again, I’ve been wondering if McCain planned to lose all along just to get even with Bush et al, for what they did to him in 2000. I just find it weird that even though Palin had this rockstar entourage to fly back to alaska, McCain unceremoniously went home, after giving a surprisingly gracious concession speech.

I haven’t heard him talking to the media either. Meanwhile, Palin can’t stay out of the media.

Just made the error of reading the entire interview. Speaking of hangovers.

Whenever I finished reading one of her tortured responses and then read one of the questions (which were normal English) it was like that moment right after you hurl when you briefly feel better, and have false hope that the next few minutes will feel better, too. But then I’d read her response and the nausea would come right back.

Sarah is adored by the bible-belt wingnuts that evidently makeup the majority of the electorate in south-central Alaska. I think it will take a protracted economic meltdown to shake up the demographics enough to turn the state back to some common sense. Ironically Alaska was heavily Democrat in the 50s and 60s, so much so that it impeded progress when the territory was trying to become a state-a conservative coalition in Congress didn’t want to threaten cloture with 2 additional Democrat Senators.
