Sally Sixpack has figured out an odd way to help her running mate win the election.; something I think running mates are supposed to do. On Rush Limbaugh today she declared “she had nothing to lose” by saying the things she has said publicly for the last week or so. Well, Sally – here’s a tip – John McCain has poured millions of dollars into trying to win the White House – he has stumped all over the country while you had secret babies and a knocked up teenager and abuses of power on your tiny plate and your tiny mind. McCain is 72 – let’s face it – he tires more easily than someone in their 40’s. So while he was out busting his ass to win friends and influence people, build a war chest, narrow the field and win the GOP nomination – you were having your nails done and charging the taxpayers for travel time you didn’t even use. You are absolutely correct though. “You got nothin’ to lose” You haven’t spent millions of dollars of your money on fund raisers or McCain rallies to try for the brass ring. All you have is a bully pulpit, a big mouth and a nice rack. Whatever kind of Christian you claim to be is one who is certainly not very well acquainted with Scripture but in the book of Proverbs 10:18 this is way it’s said :
, “He that hideth hatred with lying lips, and he that uttereth a slander, is a fool.” So Sally – you appear to be a fool on a fool’s errand betraying even the poor man who so foolishly chose you to run with him. You got nothin’, you got nothin’ to loose. If you had an ounce of dignity and compassion you would make yourself invisible and step down. (Thanks Bob).
So this is what I think Sally, you are a fake. You are a has been beauty queen. You are a mean girl. You are the worm in the apple and the aftertaste in diet soda. And it used to be annoying but now it’s become dangerous – more dangerous than Bill Ayers, more dangerous than the name Hussein and way more dangerous than poor, shaky John McCain ever imagined. You are costing Senator McCain his bid at the White House. And even worse you are the still first runner up and will be crowned Miss America if he dies in office. I am a Democrat and hope he loses, but God, woman. What is wrong with you? I am thinking that this is your walk down the runway of life – going for the crown and the roses and getting a free trip to Atlantic City. You were nobody before and here’s the best part- you’ll be nobody and a joke soon. You need to get offa’ the ticket and ride outta’ town. Like Lou Reed sang back in the day:
Ride, sally, ride
It’s not your time, it’s just your confusion
Ride, sally, ride
It’s not your time …….
David Brooks who called you a fatal cancer was not far off. Rude, nasty, cruel – then take a look at yourself. He was being kind.

I said I wouldn’t address Sarah Palin again – but if the New York Times can do it – well why not I. This time will be a tad different.
When I was little girl – back at the start of Korean War and the subsequent Cold War, my dear Daddy re-upped and went back into the Army. He was an officer and gentleman and a lush but he saw the Army as damn good way to get paid for drinking in the Officer’s Club and shuffling papers. He envisioned us doing this in Belgium at NATO. Imagine his surprise when his orders came and we were sent – in a state of shock – straight to Fort Richardson, Anchorage, Alaska. Right about this time of year – I know that because the neighbors baked me a birthday cake before we had even unpacked. Such was the camaraderie of army life back then. That and no war.
Thinking back on that year – which broke my parent’s marriage, my father’s military career and some furniture from all the parties we threw, my Daddy found time to make Alaska a learning project for me. And though young, I sucked it all up like a little sponge. My father informed me in adult terms that the Bering Strait was probably a landmass at one time and that now we were neighbors – by a two short miles – with Russia – our ideological enemy. This is because The Diomede Islands in the Bering Strait number two spots on the map. Big Diomede is Russian and Little Diomede is Alaskan. He painted a scenario where the military sat and glared at each other through spyglasses day and night – hoping for a false move. I was impressed. I was further impressed by the Midnight Sun (which was actually the 2:30 a.m. sun) and the Aurora Borealis both of which he explained to me with a globe. We had a large volcanic eruption in the Chugach Mountains that year so I learned about volcanic ash and lava and the earth’s thin crust. I woke up to those beautiful peaks every morning. We had a moose hang his big old head over the railing of our quarters and it nearly gave my father a heart attack- combined with a hangover, it is indeed a sight far worse than a pink elephant. And quickly cured by Four Roses. I learned to love Quonset huts (school for a while) and still do. We got our produce from the beautiful Matanuska Valley where everything was enormous (and pricey). The Matanuska Milkman came and dropped off our milk. I loved Anchorage which was like no place I had ever seen except on TV in Boston (which BTW, we did not have in Alaska; TV not Boston – actually we didn’t have either one). I saw the massive Mendenhall glacier and it was very big then. Sadly it’s getting smaller and at top speed. Then it will be gone. I took a train from Anchorage to Seward and I saw the Russian created cities of Juneau, Ketchikan and Sitka. I marveled bout the wooden streets in Ketchikan and the gold mine on the side of a mountain above Juneau. I learned from my father the word Inuit and about the people who lived there first before we took over their snow and ice and primacy. He spoke about whales and igloos and dog sleds. We did not kill a single animal in that year. Living in a territory and not a state made me feel special. The natural beauty made me feel honored. I was not yet 6 years old.
Why do I tell you this – from memory, BTW – because I think, by these long past memories, I am as qualified to be on the GOP ticket as Governor Palin with one huge difference – Alaska is a land that cries out for care and love. Not the kind you get in church or the Governor’s mansion, but the real kind that preserves Alaska’s dignity and its incomparable beauty and abundant natural resources Ms. Palin has systematically made decisions that do not support those aims. Wasilla is butt ugly. She helped. If she will do it to Alaska – with lies, greed, vengeance and subterfuge – then imagine what she will do with 49 more states to pillage. I’m not suggesting you write me in – I am simply suggesting that a grass roots groundswell needs to be created that will write her off. Fast.

The Sarah Palin Chronicles – The Pop Quiz
“The worst government is the most moral. One composed of cynics is often very tolerant and humane. But when fanatics are on top there is no limit to oppression.” Henry Louis Mencken
Time’s up – Sarah has dazzled them with her charm, wit and wacky views on reality. Now it’s time for the Dems to stop the grinnin’ and drop the linen. Find a way to defuse an out of control reaction to a pure wack job and win the election. Aren’t you sick of her? I am and therefore I am hoping to end the SP Chronicles today (if it’s possible) by requesting answers from her to the following questions:
If you do not believe in abortion for any reason – how do you propose that women made mothers by force or apathy will support and raise their children with less social programs and no support system in place? What is your response to a doctor insisting it must be done for the life of the mother or both will die?
What do you think has caused Global Warming if not the presence of man and man-made problems. If you believe that God has done it – why do you think he has chosen now to do it?
Do you think that the Middle East War is equivalent to the Crusades?
Why does God want this if the Muslims also believe in one God.
Why does God want this if the Muslims also believe in one God.
Why do you pray that there is a plan as if you are doubtful?
Would you allow anyone’s creationism (basically the religious basis for the presence of man on earth) to be taught in public schools? There are many different theories in religious belief of the Creation. Would you be all inclusive and also allow Darwin to be taught. Would you allow Hindu, Islamic, Buddhist, Inuit, Santeria, Voudou and all the others to be explored. If not, why?
How would you feel if you were not allowed to marry the person you loved?
What if you had Gay children and they did not “change”?
Do you agree with David Brickner that terrorism in Israel is punishment for the Jews? If so, why?
Where do the Jews fit in your beliefs?
Where do the Catholics fit?
Since the “Bible” was written centuries ago in Aramaic and other languages – how do you justify that the words in an English bible are literally the spoken word of God?
Do you believe in the Rapture?
Why does your sect think that this country is a Christian nation?
Who has said this and is in a position of authority to make this a statement not an opinion?
Do you think the Founding Fathers were heathens?
Do you think that God speaks to you directly?
If intelligent design should turn out to be extraterrestrial in origin and not God given – will that be okay with you?
Where do you think Polar Bears will live without their necessary environment? How will they thrive and increase their numbers?
If we are trying to redeem the earth, why not put our energy into better energy than anyone’s oil?
I think these are salient points that she should answer them without a script.
Immediately after they are all answered clearly I think we should step back and reassess how she fits into the running of this country. There is still time to make changes and those with courage should be able to decide if changes are in order.
Missionary work has shown to be very detrimental to the non-believers who are converted by the “do it or else” method. Christianity in its extremist incarnations has ruined many fine civilizations and methods of government. Inasmuch as Christianity – no matter how the believers spin it – is not even monotheistic – we might have done far better with more, rather than less deities.
Whatever you believe, believe this – Sarah Palin is a bad choice for Vice President and she needs to be available to answer my questions and anyone else’s before we all find ourselves rolling on the floor and speaking in tongues.
I don’t seem to get any comments on these posts – I welcome them and I would really like to hear comments on this one.

Fifty days from now we will go to the polls to cast our vote. So much rides on this election after the last eight years of despair that I wonder what John McCain is thinking. The time being taken by the media and the pundits to parse Sarah Palin has essentially diverted the real issues of these crucial days from the issues at hand. We are now have to worry about this woman and what she might do if she makes it to the White House. We think about little else. Who has mentioned the economy, the war, the national debt, health care reform or anything that we have assumed was the point of these candidate’s platforms. It has been my assumption that vetting a candidate was the job of the party considering the nomination. Not the public, not the media. And yet our valuable time and emotional energy has been hijacked by her antics of this woman and strange behavior, apparent since long before she was named VP candidate. Why does the GOP think the media should do the GOP’s job? What happened to the issues that were the talking points of this election?
I am angry and you should be too. All the stones have not been unturned nor have her bona fides been examined. Her religion, to which she is entitled, does not seem to be in step with reality. This is fine for a private citizen but not for one who will speak for the nation. Trying to ban books and punish librarians is not going to fly at the Library of Congress. Claiming that God and his son Jesus are directing the war effort has no place in our political system. GI’s may pray for an end to the fighting but I hardly think they believe Jesus wanted them there in the first place. I suspect they hope Jesus wants them home. And while we are discussing Jesus – why is a Christian Republic any more desirable than an Islamic or Jewish one? Or Hindu or Buddhist. Very little separates Sarah Palin from Mahmūd Ahmadinejād; they were both mayors and governors but he has a Ph.D. Scary huh? Aren’t religious oppressors and zealots the very people we are trying to keep from attacking our country. Isn’t that why we have Homeland Security, redition and waterboarding? Well, as Pogo said so aptly “we have met the enemy and she is us”. While the ice melts in Canada and the polar bear tries to live on land she maintains that global warming is a non-starter. That the Gay can be “cured” by prayer and that woman have no choice in reproductive rights. Is she good for the Jews? I don’t think she envisions Jews as the righteous beings lifted heavenward during the Rapture – they do not believe in the Messiah she believes in. Yet Orthodox Jews seem to love her – do they love her relationship with David Brickner? Did they even know about it? I wonder if lamebrain John McCain even knew the Pandora’s box he was opening when he let this holy rolling virago loose on the public. There is still time for the spin doctors to lay her off for some reason or another and let the RNC put a real person on the ticket so we can get back to the election. If not we can only hope that something is dug up that makes such a decision unnecessary. Something that makes it mandatory. And they had better dig fast.

Mandatory Educational Film
It’s hard to believe John McCain actually picked Sarah Palin his own self for VP on his ticket. Someone much darker and far more savvy had to be the one. Someone who studied at the school of Rovian Double Dealing (see link below) and found a long shot to help him win the race. Sarah Palin is a ringer – using the Wiki definition (and there are many uses for the word) and in this case it’s an imposter. What is she posing as? A competent person, ready to take the second highest office in this country. Most pundits cite Aaron Burr and Spiro Agnew – with of course Dirty Dick Cheney, at the top of Bad VP list. But I suspect the Queen of Mean is going to reign for a long time as the worst one way or another. Yet the GOP Torquemadas -who burn DemocrAts for heresy – are …nowhere to be seen. “She is a babe, cute, a great speech maker, young, a soccer mom, a mother of a disabled child, and if she had remained a Catholic she could have run neck and neck with Mother Theresa.” Put it another way – she is about as in touch with this world of 2008 as Prince Charles is. But no one chose him. He gets the job no matter what; and at least he’s green.
Anyone else on the ticket would be on 60 Minutes tonight answering some hard questions. Not Sarah the Serpent – there is a “no interviews until she is comfortable and ready“. What the hell does that mean? She was a mayor and Governor and she crowed like a rooster at the GOP convention. Come on. Most folks would assume the no -interview blackout is simply because she is a loooooose cannon. Seasoned politicians can speak anytime, anywhere. In fact they love it. Why is there a gag order on Sassy Sarah? Is it because she can’t explain her line vetoes, moose gutting, oil drilling, polar bear bashing, special interests, budget deficit, creationist view of the 21st Century. About all she isn’t, is Holocaust denier and no one has asked that question yet. Oops.
When the world leaders speak of global warming is she going to leave the room or will she argue? Does she know Al Gore won a Nobel Prize for his stand on global warming. Are they afraid she will say something stupid about that? Or worse. Face it folks, those beauty queens want to win – if not by brains then certainly by stupid answers that the judges overlook because they want a babe – not a Rhodes Scholar.
The GOP plays by the rules they make up as they go along. They have for years and there is no reason to stop now. Distance themselves from Bush? What a joke; they loved them some Bush twice and made sure he got the Big Job in both elections. I’ll bet even Dubya thinks she’s joke. We know where Cindy McCain stands.
Keep digging media – you are bound to find something.
I know I will.
The Sarah Palin Chronicles – Alaska Independence Partygate + Its Mean Girl September 5, 2008

It is tempting to write about Sarah’s rousing speech last night but I have found a blog that is even better and I offer that link for you to click and read. Read all of it. And you will enjoy the other posts on the site. These are Anne Kilkenny’s comments on Sarah Palin and they’re not very uplifting – but you judge. Having this creepy, extremist woman one heartbeat away from running the country is a hideous thought. Anne Kilkenny is my hero.
Another extra smart friend of mine who blogs on the Huffpost.com – made the observation that Obama took so much heat for his Rev. Wright association that he had to leave his own church and the Rev. rightly resigned. Sweet Slithery Sarah belonged to the Alaska Independence Party – http://www.akip.org, a secessionist group that still exists. Do None Dare Call This Treason? Why has this gotten so little mention in the press? Sauce for the gander is also sauce for the goose. She must have agreed with their platform or else why join? Was she perhaps seeing herself as President of that Country-state – Palaska? This is a hard question and she needs to answer it. People like her because she’s a babe? That may be true – but she is a scary snake of a babe and as I mentioned a few days ago – beauty queens are mean girls.
Sarah’s speech may have roused a roomful of rich White people – she is part of the stuff white people like, but it terrified me. She was loaded for bear and she has public speaking down. But so did Hitler – yes I said Hitler and that’s exactly who I meant – that man could speechify too.
Let’s make certain that between today and the middle of October cooler, smarter people prevail in the GOP and find McCain someone appropriate to be his ticket buddy. Male or female – Just not Sarah Palin. No. no. no
Take the time to email your local paper and ask them to give Sarah’s party antics the same microscopic scrutiny that Obama’s church going got. Remind them of the Equal Time thing. And don’t ask. Demand.
