Position Flexible

Sarah Palin apparently agreed to speak at a major Republican fundraiser, but then wasn’t so sure she would attend. So the Republicans disinvited her and booked Newt Gingrich instead.

Sources familiar with the Palin snub fumed about how the governor handled this.

“She was a disaster,” one Republican source told FOX News. “We had confirmation.”

As for inviting Gingrich, National Republican Congressional Committee spokesman Ken Spain said the GOP “decided to go in another direction.”

“Speaker Gingrich is a leader,” Spain added.

Of couse Sarah Palin is a walking, talking, turkey-geeking disaster. The Republicans are only discovering this now?

    But she’s cute and spunky and they are easily distracted. It’s been a very long time since the wrong wing has cared about substance. They’ve been dedicated to the superficial and pandering to the misinformed.Perhaps her performance trends in Alaskan opinion polls has not gone unnoticed. See Mudflats

    Bob,Thank you so much for posting this. After clicking over to the full article at Fox News, I visited the “comments” section out of curiosity. I don’t think I’ve ever laughed so hard in my entire life. One of my favorites:”As always, It would be interesting to know the story behind the story. For you on the fence, understand that for the Obama Plan,(which was constructed long before him) desperately needs the platform of (Global Warming and Wealth is Bad) to prosper his populist ideology. Just ask yourselves, if 10,000 of the worlds top scientist agree there is NO GLOBAL WARMING and Socialism has failed in every nation of the world, what are we really doing here. Again, what is the story behind the story. Like her or not, Sara Palin knows. Don’t believe everything you think!”AAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!(adding) – Uhhh…..what?

    NOOOO!!!!Sarah Palin carrying the GOP’s standards is the best thing to happen to the Democrats since Barry Goldwater’s unique brand of asshattery. I don’t want her going back to obscurity. Granted, Gingrich is also a tool, but Palin and Glenn Beck together will unwittingly drive the final nails in the conservatives’ casket of irrelevance.

    Imagine what it must be like to try and pull together a meeting of influential GOP bigwigs in order to chart a course into the future.Newt Gingrich and Richard Steele.Boehner and Bachman.Sarah Palin, accompanied by her media entourage (Greta Van Sustern) and Greta’s husband and freeloading Palin adviser, and Todd, Bristol, Willow, Trig, Trak, Tictac, Talleywack and Skidoo.John McCain, and his live blogging tweet of a daughter dogging the junior Rep with abs…what’s his name?…Schock?Eric Cantor. Mike Pence.Shelby and Chambliss and Vitter and DeMint…A few lawyers armed with recording devices to make sure everything that is said about Dick Cheney gets back to Dick Cheney – they told him to stay away, but Dick ain’t done with them yet.Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity…and Glenn Beck wandering the halls in tears because they won’t let him in despite the fact that he has them surrounded.If you were planning a cock-up…aiming for an event that was doom fucked guaranteed to result in a disgusting orgy of whaargaarbl and possibly some horrible and irreversible mutation of the human genome…how could it be more perfect?I keep searching for some analogy…some strange gathering of blind, legless, armless, spastic, inbred, proto-criminal freaks stumbling around a basketball court whipping on each other with tennis rackets, but this is truly a case of truth being stranger…and more frightening.
