Heart tells 'Caribou Barbie' to fuck off
Republican Vice Presidential candidate Sarah Palin has the nickname “Barracuda,” which inspired the use of the Heart song of the same name during Palin’s speech at the RNC on Wednesday night. Heart sent out a statement Thursday afternoon announcing they had sent a cease-and-desist letter asking the campaign to stop using the song. “The Republican campaign did not ask for permission to use the song, nor would they have been granted that permission. “Sarah Palin’s views and values in NO WAY represent us as American women."
[When I heard them playing 'Barracuda' to introduce the Pork Princess I immediately knew that there was NO WAY the Wilson sisters would approve of that phony Neanderthal bitch using their music. And I was right.]
Check his temperature
And we couldn’t imagine what Mitt Romney was thinking when he denounced “liberal Washington” and then, at the convention of the party that brought you unimpeded presidential spying, declared: “It’s time for the party of big ideas, not the party of Big Brother!”
[He's done - Time to stick a fork in that flip-flopping, double-talking phony bastard!]

During the Republican's comedically produced convention this past week, whose name, George W. Bush or Elvis Presley's, was mentioned more? The answer is below.

Cindy McCain's $300,000 Outfit
Washington outsider John McCain and his wife Cindy hail from Arizona, a rough-and-tumble frontier state where red-blooded Americans stand up to elitist Northerners like Barack Obama, who has sold millions of books and not on QVC, like a normal person might do, and who jets around the world to give celebrity speeches in Europe. But the other night Cindy McCain poked a little hole in her down-home cred by taking the RNC stage in an outfit that cost $300,000, give or take, according to the fashion experts at Vanity Fair.
[And you do know that the story that "Mother Teresa “convinced” her to bring home the two orphans from Bangladesh", is bullshit, right? Can't the McCains tell a story that isn't a lie?]
But being an elitist isn't all bad
"The Onion gets it, and thanks FOX for their part in elevating a black man to the stature of "elitist." - [h/t News Hounds]
The spoiled, 'kept' little prick
The cover of the new issue of the New Yorker spotlights Sen. John McCain’s (R-AZ) multiple houses, contrasting his wealth with the foreclosure crisis many Americans are struggling with.
[And the brat's handlers have the audacity to call Obama the 'elitist'? Wake the fuck up!]
The Pork Princess is a revisionist, too
"I guess when you turn out to be profoundly wrong on a vital national security issue, maybe it's comforting to pretend that everyone was wrong, too."
[Sorry bitch, but Obama was the only one between your 'new' boy and him to have gotten it 'right' on Iraq. Someone 'recorded' that, too. And the 'surge' has been a miserable failure and the same result would have happened without it and we would have saved 1,069 American lives and $300+ billion, too. Even Petraeus admits that now.]
US warship confronts Russians
The USS Mount Whitney carrying humanitarian aid yesterday steamed into a Georgian port where Russian troops are still stationed, stoking tensions once again in the tinderbox Caucasus region.
But never fear, nasty Dickhead is here
[It will be nice when we can rid ourselves of these embarrassing fools. The entire world, not just the Russians, realize Bush and Cheney are toothless punks.]
Donny Deutschbag
DEUTSCH: She [Palin] talked about energy. Didn’t matter! Today everybody’s running in circles — we want to have her over for dinner. I trust her. I want her watching my kids. I want her laying next to me in bed. That’s the way people vote.
[Donny Deutsch is a shallow-thinking pansy-ass who reminds me of 'HD' with his view on what 'attributes' they look for in a candidate. Mush brains, amoeba, men without character, or testicles ...]
Angry Republican Girly-Boy
WASHINGTON (AP) — Democrats are calling on a Republican congressman, Lynn Westmoreland from Georgia to apologize for referring to Barack and Michelle Obama as "uppity," but the lawmaker stood by his comments and said he meant no offense. Westmoreland is one of the most conservative members of Congress. He has drawn criticism from civil rights advocates on a number of issues, including last year when he led opposition to renewing the 1965 Voting Rights Act. He also was one of two House members last year who opposed giving the Justice Department more money to crack unsolved civil rights killings.
[You know, we'd all probably be hateful, racist Republicans if our mommas named us Lynn.]
'Dereliction of Duty'
'McCain’s record on veterans issues is shocking and awful'
'As Iraq War veteran and former Democratic congressional candidate Paul Hackett says, “Here is a guy who touts himself as a friend of veterans, but his history shows just the opposite. How can someone who cares about our men and women in the armed services vote against the GI Bill or veterans’ healthcare?”
Palin is 20 months removed from this
[And don't forget, in the typical 'conservative' mode of governing, the Pork Princess left that tiny community with a $20 million debt.]
McCain's old Sugar Daddy is back
'The Keating $50,000'
Individuals at a law firm founded by Charles H. Keating, Jr., who symbolized how political influence contributed to the collapse of savings and loans in the 1980s, have bundled at least $50,000 to John McCain's presidential campaign since June, the nonpartisan Center for Responsive Politics has calculated, making the Cincinnati-based firm McCain's sixth-largest contributor during that period.
[John McCain has been corrupt since the day he entered Congress and he's still using some of his same old accomplices.]

[Pathetic isn't it? Tied - each mentioned once. Republicans can never run on their accomplishments. They run on fear and brilliantly use their constituents' ignorance to their advantage.]
I thought the surge worked?
Gen. David Petraeus has recommended against any significant reduction of U.S. forces in Iraq before the end of the year, ABC News has learned. The only drawdown Petraeus has called for, according to a senior military official familiar with his recommendation, is a modest reduction of two Marine battalions, or about 1,500 Marines, a tiny fraction of the 146,000 U.S. troops now in Iraq.
[If the 'surge' has worked, how come we have to keep more troops there now than before it began? Ah, never mind - Hopefully that will be all taken care of and be a moot point come November]
What? She supported what bridge?!?
She does stand-up, too?
Sarah Palin shows her stupidity
In 2006, the Eagle Forum Alaska sent a questionnaire to all the state’s gubernatorial candidates, including Sarah Palin (R). From Palin’s response about the Pledge of Allegiance:
11. Are you offended by the phrase “Under God” in the Pledge of Allegiance? Why or why not?
SP: Not on your life. If it was good enough for the founding fathers, its good enough for me and I’ll fight in defense of our Pledge of Allegiance.
[Wow. And she's actually an elected official? Interestingly, the link from 'eagleforumalaska' which showed Palin's entire questionaire has been scrubbed - taken down. Alaskans can duck and hide their Pork Princess' warts all they want because we already have enough on her to know she should remain their problem, and for the sake of the 'lower 48', not become ours. Most 7th graders know that 'Under God' wasn't added to the Pledge of Allegiance until 1954 when the famous Joe McCarthy-influenced Republican-quasi-Nazi Party, had it added. Palin is an intellectually-challenged idiot and she put it in writing. Scrubbed link or not.]
His lips are moving
John McCain said he supports raising minimum wage on Fox News Sunday with host Chris Wallace as he admits voting against it at least 17 times.
Whose Your Momma Now?
Drinking rum and 'abstinence only' works out well, doesn't it? Is a woman who is incapable of even monitoring her teenaged daughter's My Space qualified to be our Vice President? I say no fucking way!
The Limbaugh Award
Good morning ladies and gentlemen and welcome to the 79th presentation of the 'world-renowned' Limbaugh Award.
We have another 'first' this week at 'done that'; we have our first 'true' back-to-back, consecutive week winner, in the long, distinguished history of this 'prestigious, but infamous', award for liars, Gov. Sarah "Pretty Peppy Pork Princess' Palin.
I say our first 'true' back-to-back winner because Palin's new boss, John McSame actually won week #49 and #50, but since there was a' bye-week' between those two awards, the Committee has designated her the first.
Gov. Palin, who won this prestigious award last week - a mere two days after being thrust onto America's political stage - pretty much continued the entire week either lying, repeating lies and being exposed for lies that are now becoming public. The Committee decided to weigh in some of those factors to this week's selection since they, like the rest of the country, are just now learning how inaccurately she was originally portrayed when introduced by John McCain.
Sarah Palin has been caught lying at least once everyday in the nine since McCain chose her as his running mate. She has lied several more times about her unrelenting support for the 'Bridge to Nowhere'. In fact, Sarah Palin received more pork than any other Governor in the nation. She not only supported that bridge, but it has now been pointed out that she fully supported another huge pork project, the “Road to Nowhere.”
She has lied about her association with the Christian Reconstructionist political party which has been linked to domestic terrorism. And she's lied about her and her husband's relationship with the America-hating Alaska Independence Party .
The Pork Princess lied about Obama's tax plan. It has been proven over and over by every source that has analyzed Obama's and McCain's tax plans that Obama's is by far the better plan for '99% of taxpayers'.
She lied about selling the state's jet 'on eBay for a profit'.
But, her most egregious lie of course, was when she said she'd 'be there for special needs kids'. Before her and husband had little 'Trig', she didn't give a damn about those kids and displayed that wickedness when she cut Alaska's funding for 'special needs' kids to the bone; a classless and despicable act even for a phony Christian Republican.
Sarah Palin, who attended five colleges in six years, is obviously somewhat unstable and without a doubt, a pathological liar who is unfit to serve this country.
John McCain made one of the biggest strategic blunders in U.S. political history by not properly vetting Sarah Palin and our country should not have to pay for that terrible error in judgment. Barack Obama should give McCain a 'pass', or a do-over, if you will, and allow him the opportunity to retract this tragic mistake.
But until McCain relents, me and the Committee will just keep selecting the lying bitch as the Limbaugh Award winner.
Congratulations, Pork Princess, you're #79.
See you next week for #80.
