Heads Will Rear

More amazing transcript goodies from last night! I can’t get enough of the endless drivel-stream that spewed forth from the twisted mouth of the Not-The-Most-Popular-Governor-Anymore:

We need to look back, even two years ago, and we need to be appreciative of John McCain’s call for reform with Fannie Mae, with Freddie Mac, with the mortgage-lenders, too, who were starting to really kind of rear that head of abuse.

And the colleagues in the Senate weren’t going to go there with him. So we have John McCain to thank for at least warning people. And we also have John McCain to thank for bringing in a bipartisan effort people to the table so that we can start putting politics aside, even putting a campaign aside, and just do what’s right to fix this economic problem that we are in.

It is a crisis. It’s a toxic mess, really, on Main Street that’s affecting Wall Street. And now we have to be ever vigilant and also making sure that credit markets don’t seize up. That’s where the Main Streeters like me, that’s where we would really feel the effects.

Okay, first, what is her obsession with heads and rears? First it was Putin’s head, now it’s the head of abuse. Does anyone even know what abuse’s head looks like? Maybe we can find someone who has been abused and charge them $1,500 to pay for a medical exam to find out.

Now, to other less hilarious matters:
1. John McCain’s campaign manager, Rick Davis works as a lobbyist for Freddie Mac.
2. John McCain said Senator Obama’s warnings about an impending sub-prime crisis were wrong. John McCain didn’t warn anyone.
3. John McCain didn’t suspend his campaign.
4. John McCain didn’t fix anything last week.
5. It’s a toxic mess? The toxic mess starts on Main Street and it’s MAIN STREET that affects Wall Street??? WHA-HUH?!?!
6. A woman who gets the tax-payers to pay for a private SUV instead of rape kits, and who has a tanning bed installed in her mansion is no where near a Main Streeter.
7. Generalities aren’t convincing anyone anymore. What worked for Bush isn’t working anymore. You’re 4 – 8 years too late, Moose Killer.

    Yep, let’s “look back even two years ago” when there’s maybe kinda something we want to show off (true or not), but let’s not look to the past when we need to define change.So clearly this weekend Tina Fay will be Sarah. I’m seeing Keenan Williams as Gwen Ifil. Who’s playing Biden?

    Heh. Heh. “Rear.”

  • kansasdem

    I’m thinking of naming a new drink after Sarah, I’ll call it the Flaming Palin, it’ll consist of Russian Vodka, Canadian Club, and a flaming moose testicle!

    I love how our BBQ media (as predicted almost EVERYWHERE)is drooling over her performance last night. She didn’t really answer any questions–and again the media is lionizing her for exceeding the lowest expectations of being able to put a sentence together. They should cease covering her until she answers more questions and does a press conference. The best line I read, was “Gibberish Machine.”–that’s all it was–read her answers–One last thing–Biden’s performance was masterful. Evidently, the independent voters agree–he won the debate, and again the BBQ media is softening and undermini9ng what they are saying–unreal.

  • NotAPollStat

    The talking heads are rearing their heads of abuse — i.e., Sarah was stupendous! She knocked it out of the park!

    Well, Stan, what’s your read on the debate?Thanks, Bill. Sarah Palin did not faceplant into the lecturn, and avoided vomiting on the moderator. You have to call this one a big win for the GOP.I think you’re right, Stan. Neither did she stab any small children or spontaneously self-combust. The Republicans have to be happy with this performance.From where I’m sitting, Bill, it was a home run. She seemed to be hopped up on benzedrine, but managed to run the base paths even while yammering nonsensically from poorly memorized talking points. There’s joy in Mudville tonight!What about Biden, Stan? Any read there?Who?Biden. Joe Biden…her opponent.She had an opponent?

  • ConstanceRifle

    So clearly this weekend Tina Fay will be Sarah. I’m seeing Keenan Williams as Gwen Ifil. Who’s playing Biden?

    Darrell Hammond probably.

  • ConstanceRifle

    From Palin’s speech:

    I know education you are passionate about with your wife being a teacher for 30 years, and god bless her. Her reward is in heaven, right?

    Did anyone else find this cringe-inducing? I think that it was kind of a low blow.

    The bar was set so low with Dubya, isn’t Miss Moosejaw just more of the same? No wonder the sheeple are drooling. Haven’t had their fair share of abuse, apparently. I AM ready to hurl :P

    The whole goddamn thing was cringe-inducing. She is the most spectacularly stupid elected office holder I have ever seen — even including George W. Bush. And I spent 10 years as a reporter, several of them covering very small potatoes local government. None of those yahoos were as dimwitted as this woman. None.And for what it’s worth I disagree strongly with the premise that she “didn’t stop the bleeding” for the Republican ticket. The knuckle-dragger base was happy with her performance, but who else did she bring on board? Could Palin’s laughable performance really have played well with Independents? I strongly doubt it.

    Teachers shouldn’t have to wait for heaven to get their rewards. They should be getting them right here and right now in case heaven doesn’t exist!

  • frank regan

    Those darned pundits are talking so darned much about how darned folksy she was when she asked Joe, “May I call you Joe?” when it was a total set-up for her “Say it ain’t so, Joe” line. She wanted to avoid any criticism for calling him by his first name when it had been announced that he would be calling her Governor. She’s so darned programmed and so darned contrived and you betcha they told her to do that darned wink thing that was so darned cute, but looked like a reference to McC and his blind left eye, although his winking is involuntary and hers ain’t.

  • KatinWilm

    Thanks for posting that, kansasdem. It is freakin’ fantastic! I noticed she kept glancing down – I thought she was just filling out her hunting license application, but no! The mystery has been solved!

    Erica Jong on HP gets the quote of the day:”She is the female candidate of GOP dreams. She talks, she smiles, she flirts, she never opposes. She makes mistakes but nobody seems to care. We watch her lips go up, go down, go sideways. We watch her eyes glisten behind rimless glasses. The beauty pageant promoters removed her soul so it wouldn’t get in the way. How can we dismiss her or debate her? She’s a bubble. She’s fizz.”

    @ ConstanceEverything she said was cringe inducing.The wink! It will be mocked, and deservedly so, for at least a week. I can’t WAIT to see what Stewart makes with this tape. It’s comedy GOLD, Jerry! GOLD!This degree of utter incompetence exceeds Dubya by the distance from Crawford to Wasilla measured in centimeters.

    Polls Peg Biden As Big Winnerhttp://news.yahoo.com/s/thenation/20081003/cm_thenation/45367830;_ylt=AjhuL5gEXINRKyw4o3u90qas0NUE

    Much hilarity has been generated by the meme of Sarah Palin basically being George Bush in drag. I would like to vigorously protest that mischaracterization of this daughter of Alaska. Besides, everyone knows she’s Spiro Agnew with a vagina.

  • Poleezz

    Cactusgal suggested “She’s Cheney in pantaloons!!!” I agree with that. I will add one more thing that I pointed out last night: she’s a glazed over rubber ham. So tempting but full of MSG!!!!!

  • kansasdem

    Hmmm, channel surfing and stumbled onto a “call-in” on CNN Headline News, some caller says she saw Palin pull something out of her hair after the debate.If so that has to be on tape somewhere. Remember Bush’s bulge?

  • http://cousinavi.wordpress.com cousinavi

    I understand party preference, but how in the name of fuckitude can ANYONE say Palin DEFEATED Biden?You can say, “Well, she did well for an inexperienced rookie.”You could say, “Hey… she didn’t have any Couric moments.”You might even say, “She did okay, all things considered.”But to suggest that she WON???That’s just head-up-your-ass stubborn foolishness.That goes so far past obtuse there’s no fucking WORD for it.What do you SAY to that???”Oh…you….you…POOPY HEAD!”

  • http://cousinavi.wordpress.com cousinavi

    @ KansasDem”Remember Bush’s bulge?”Bush’s BULGE???You gotta outta Crawford more often, there, cowpoke.

    “From Palin’s speech:I know education you are passionate about with your wife being a teacher for 30 years, and god bless her. Her reward is in heaven, right?Did anyone else find this cringe-inducing? I think that it was kind of a low blow.”Extremely patronizing.

  • ConstanceRifle

    @ KansasDemMany people have been inquiring about that. Heard about it on the Stephanie Miller show from a few people too. I’m not sure what it was, but if she was wearing an earpiece, they have them now where you can stick it inside your ear to where it’s invisible…no wires, nothing. So I have no idea what it was.@Cousinavilove your site. I know the entire thing was cringe-inducing, I just felt that her invoking Biden’s late wife was extremely rude and should have never been a part of anything she was going to say.BTW, I think KansasDem is talking about this:http://dir.salon.com/story/news/feature/2004/10/08/bulge/index.htmlor maybe I’m reading your post wrong.

  • Poleezz

    That was a cootie in her hair goddamn it!

    @ Constance. I got the bulge reference.I just cannot resist penis jokes.

  • ConstanceRifle

    @cousinI should have known…my bad.

  • PackyJ

    Just to clarify this in my own mind:Is the issue rearing heads, or heading rears?

  • http://livefreeordie08.wordpress.com LiveFreeOrDie08

    Forwarding from a comment made at another site this morning:We all should take a moment to thank Katie Couric and CBS for giving us an honest view of Sarah Palin before last night’s stage show. Had we not had a week’s worth of information to counterbalance last night’s performance, the results would likely have been far more favorable to Palin/McCain.Send a thanks to: evening@cbsnews.com

By the end, when she clearly knew she was doing well, it was so sparkling it was almost mesmerizing. It sent little starbursts through the screen and ricocheting around the living rooms of America. I was wondering what that was on my living room floor. *looks again* Nope, not little starbursts. Vomit.

  • ConstanceRifle

    @Alan4sThat twinkle in Rich Lowry’s eye isn’t stardust, I can tell you that much. In fact, he should probably get that looked at.

    It’s not a bulge, but it certain looks like a wire – is it for her mic?http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2008/10/02/sarah-palin-has-an-eyelas_n_131442.htmlthe top video, over her right shoulderEasier to watch if you mute it :)
