The M.O, Doncha Know?

by Lee Stranahan

Since Sarah Palin has decided to not leave the public, her method has become completely clear – she exaggerates reality to the point where it becomes a pandering lie. Whenever she says almost anything, her words can’t be taken at face value.

The Letterman situation is a clear example – she took a dumb joke and turned it into an accusation of rape. Rape, as in ‘we’re going to charge victims for their rape kits.’

    Loud noises. All it is, is loud noises. Those dumb jokes weren’t even about Palin’s kid(s), they were about Spitzer, and that baseball guy (sorry, I don’t follow the sport). Her outrage is only intended to distract America from the clusterfuck that is right-wing ideology today. Every new right-wing extremist attack will be accompanied in the news by another new fake outrage from Palin, Limbaugh, Gingrich, whoever. At this point, they’re all the same.

    The structure of the comments coming from Todd and Sarah Palin show that their outrage is entirely manufactured for political purposes (e.g. their referencing “Hollywood, New York” celebrities and “Alaskan” values).I also noticed Sarah keeps mentioning her daughter (Willow) by name–an odd habit for somebody trying to keep her children out of the limelight.I feel sorry for the Palin children who have to watch their parents continually making asses out of themselves–sometimes at the expense of such children.

    The Palin’s continue to overplay their hand in this case by pretending not to know that the jokes were NOT about Willow. Any idiot knows that they were geared towards the 18 year old WITH CHILD. Reminds me of the lipstick on a pig nonsense from the campaign. Overplayed.

    Palin. Epic. Fail.Perhaps she should spend more time governing her very own state before she mouths off about comedians.The stats:Alaska is the #1 state in the country for rape and has been for 23 out of the last 30 yearsAlaska’s reported rate of rape per capita is 2.6 times the national averageAnchorage has the ninth highest sexual assault rate of any city in the United States, and Fairbanks is ranked firstFairbanks rape rate is 4.7 times the national averageAlaska’s child abuse rate is six times higher than the national averageThe words of former Vice President Cheney, “Go fuck yourself” seem very fitting for Palin.

    Palin is just a walking talking self-parody machine.

    Read some of the comments over at Huffpost. Trust me, there are plenty of idiots who are willing to believe that the jokes were about Willow.

    you know I have been thinking about that Japanese robot that was on the teevee recently. Without seeing it in a while, I am thinking it looks a little like our lovely Sarah. Is that wrong? creepy? too close to the truth?

    I see another PEOPLE magazine cover in the near future!!Willow and her Barbie doll??Gawd forbid this murdering TOOL mother-Palin would use AIR TIME to discuss actual IDEAS/ISSUES/IMPORTANT “stuff”!!GAG!!!!!!! Palin uses her children as fashion and political accessories.She shoves ‘em under the bus, and then says, “Don’t hit ‘em with your moving car”!!!Methinks the lady dost protest too much!!I’m not gonna’ proof this. I don’t care.I’m so sick of hearing Palin WHINE on every show today about how DL make a “statutory rape” remark about her 14 year-old Willow that I’m exhausted.She KNOWS he didn’t. She’s using this for ATTENTION and using her kids to get it!!CJ (above) is correct. Very unusual for Palin to keep saying her daughter Willow’s NAME over and over and over…….and making snide remarks about the President: “The candidate who must be obeyed!!??”The horrific remarks made by John McCain against Chelsea Clinton years ago SO FAR EXCEED the boundaries of BAD TASTE that it makes this joke referencing 18 year-old Bristol (I-already-got-knocked up-once) Palin seem like a funny limerick.And I’m a woman. I do not like overtly sexist remarks. But I’m also tolerant.Palin and all those associated with her are complete attention-seeking TOOLS!!!!!!!

    Hmm. Palin is being so stridently defensive about what she (and apparently nobody else) interpreted as a sex joke aimed at her 14-year-old, I find myself wondering if maybe precious little Willow has, in fact, gotten knocked up.That would explain the borderline hysterical response from her parents, would it not?

    I hope she keeps implying that New York and New York City is the home of evil devil worshipping witches. The TriState Area controls a lot more electoral votes than Alaska.Piss off Hollywood also too please.At the rate these self-destructive losers are going the number of red states will keep decreasing.Republicans: The best corporatist tools corporate money can buy.
