Keith Olbermann’s Worst Persons in the World

I’m posting this because I think that it is quite funny.

Bronze to Kathleen Parker, who wrote this rather hilarious article about John McCain’s picking of Sarah Palin. 

Quote:

My husband called it first. Then, a brilliant, 75-year-old scholar and raconteur confessed to me over wine: ‘I’m sexually attracted to her. I don’t care that she knows nothing.’

Finally, writer Robert Draper closed the file on the Sarah Palin mystery with a devastating article in this Sunday’s New York Times Magazine: ‘The Making (and Remaking) of McCain.’ 

McCain didn’t know her. He didn’t vet her. His campaign team had barely an impression. In a bar one night, Draper asked one of McCain’s senior advisers:      ‘Leaving aside her actual experience, do you know how informed Governor Palin is about the issues of the day?’

The adviser thought a moment and replied: ‘No, I don’t know.’

Blame the sycamore tree.

Which garnered a rather startled reaction out of Kathryn Jean Lopez over at the National Review:

Monica?!   [Kathryn Jean Lopez]

Because I know some of you are understandably and sensibly wondering WHY?: We’re running our roster of syndicated columns through the election. Period. So that’s why we published one today that is embarrassing and outrageous.

Kirk Petersen called it a Cat Fight in the Corner. Andrew Sullivan got a rather hearty snort out of it as well.

The Silver goes to Rupert Murdoch for deciding that he is not too keen on his autobiography that is coming out.

The Gold goes to Rush Limbaugh for bringing up a subject that has been debunked by Factcheck.org and WorldNetDaily. (I know, I just broke a promise, but it was for a good reason.) My favorite line in this was, “Michael freaking Savage?!?!?!” Rolling on the floor

This is one of the reasons why I love being a Libertarian. I can sit back and laugh at the “Coming apart” of the Republican Party too. Tongue 

Jackie and Dunlap’s Redstate update….

Enjoy….

I knew that Ohio was a battleground State…. But this?

This rather humorous story comes via Ohio.com: (Hat Tip to Twitter)

Poll workers from opposing sides in the presidential race apparently clashed in a physical altercation Friday at a Cuyahoga Falls nursing home when one accused the other of improperly marking a ballot.

George Manos, the 75-year-old Republican, told police that Edith Walker, the 73-year-old Democrat, jumped on his back and struck him in the head three to four times with her fists. Manos said two other elections workers had to pull Walker off his back, according to a report filed with Cuyahoga Falls police.

Manos said it happened after he accused Walker of ballot tampering, and he wants to prosecute.

The incident, which occurred about noon at Gardens of Western Reserve nursing home, is being investigated by both the police and the Summit County elections board. The board probe could lead to a closer examination of the other votes with which Walker was involved.

The alleged assault piqued the interest of
Sen. John McCain’s presidential campaign — as the voter in question reportedly wanted to vote for McCain but her ballot was initially marked for Sen. Barack Obama.

”This is a troubling report that emphasizes the importance of having a transparent and open process in every voting place in Ohio,” said Paul Lindsay, a spokesman for McCain’s campaign.

I guess this is what they mean by fighting for the vote in the election! Hee hee 

I guess this would be a good time to make a mental note to be sure and wear protective gear on November 4’th. Nah, who I am kidding? Obama’s got it lined up here. So, I don’t think I will have a problem. (I hope! Worried)

A Political Byline Special Presentation: Crawford

My friend Ryan sent me this. Normally I do not post things that other people send to me. But in light of recent events that landed in the crosshairs of the left and landed me on Gawker.com. I am publishing this Movie to show those, who might want to kill me or at worse call me names, that I am not some sort of Bush loving, flag waving freak, who thinks anyone that disagrees with me is inherently evil.

This movie is about the town that President George W. Bush basically used as a prop for his Presidential Campaign. You will see a town, that got swept up into the fury of support for George W. Bush and a town flourish because of it. You’ll see a town that became ground zero for an Anti-War and Pro-War movement that almost drove it apart. Finally, you will see a town, that lives in almost ruin, and is possibly divided, all because of the political ambitions and a warped political ideology of President, who is now leaving that town and moving somewhere else.

This movie shows something, something interesting, something frightening, something that only affirms my beliefs that I could never, ever, be a Republican. It shows us that people that fail to think for themselves and allow themselves to be blinded by a flawed Political Ideology are truly shallow and quite frankly, scary people. Further more, it shows how those who mix their Religious beliefs and their Politics are very dangerous people.

Have said all that, I present to you…… Crawford

Snort Worthy Quote of the Day

Now This is FUNNY!

Jefferson County Sheriff Oliver “Glenn” Boyer, who was also named Gov. Blunt’s statement, told WND that not only had he never agreed to join the “Truth Squad,” but also that it “infuriated” him that anyone would think he’d use his office to squash others’ freedom of speech.


“I’m a small, Democratic sheriff in rural Missouri,” Boyer told WND. “I haven’t even seen the original interview with Jennifer Joyce and Bob McCulloch. … All I know is, I came into my office on Monday morning unaware of any of this. I had a fundraiser Saturday, when all this started, of my own. I came into my office Monday morning, and I’ve got 500 emails and 19 nasty phone calls calling me a communist pig! I think, ‘Man, I thought it was a pretty good fundraiser.'”

*Snort*

Comedy Gold: Tina Fey’s second Sarah Palin performance

Finally, I forced myself to sit and watch the new SNL performance of Sarah Palin by Tina Fey. I normally do not watch second performances like this, because the humor usually goes stale. But in this case, this was funny. The rapid eye blinking, the silly answers, The cute when cornered answer was awesomely funny.

For what it is worth, I did not find any of this skit offensive at all. As matter of fact, if anyone in the McCain campaign thinks this is offensive, they seriously need to look into getting a sense of humor.

Here it is, in all it’s glory:
