Seriously, how can people dig up the level of vile spittle-spewing hatred that they have for Sarah Palin?  It’s one thing to disagree with her politics, but hating on her like she’s Satan makes me think you are all completely deranged out of your drug altered minds.  Really, get a life weenies.

Last night I thought she was absolutely magnificent.  I watched the VP debate with the expectation that she wasn’t going to beat Biden on specifics, but on everything else she herself had become the shining city on a hill of dirty politics.  Her invocation of Reagan’s famous “There you go again!” line gave me chills, and every time she winked at the camera… oh man, it was monitor licking time for me. 

I know, I need help. 

But really, she performed about as well as anyone who’s only had 5 weeks to get up to speed could possibly perform against a 35-year debating veteran.  I know some weenies are whining that she didn’t answer many of the questions, but it was obvious the questions were skewed towards Biden’s strengths, and Ifill (the moderator) kept giving him the last word on everything as well.  Not a single question on energy or anything that Lady Sarah clearly would have been very informed about, forcing Palin to inject her expertise on issues like energy policy into questions that were otherwise unrelated.  This was the only time she could speak directly to the people unedited, and she took advantage of this venue as much as she could.  With a twinkle in her eye and a smile that could melt all but the most darkened hearts of liberal scumsuckers, she exuded charisma and warmth such as we have not seen since, well, Ronald Reagan.

Which is not to say Biden didn’t perform well.  I thought he did very well in fact, but the problem was he was lying his ASS off.   Oh my God, seriously.  Almost everything he said was either a misstatement or a flat out whopper of a fibby wibby lie.  There was no way Palin could ever address it all, especially since it’d be impossible for her to know absolutely everything McCain had been doing in the Senate for the past 3 decades, thus being able to call Biden on the carpet whenever he misrepresented McCain’s record.

That more than anything though would explain her poor performance in the previous interviews she had with Couric and Gibson.  She wouldn’t have to work so hard to remember talking points if McCain wasn’t such a damned RINO to begin with.  And that was the problem, she couldn’t really speak for herself, she had to speak for McMaverick, and half the time figuring out where he stood on things was like trying to nail jello to the wall.  It’s the first time she’s ever had to do something like that, and it showed.  But she’s learning though, and she is learning at an incredibly fast rate.  Her star is still rising, but she already is, in many ways, a superstar. 

I think what I liked most about this debate is how her family easily mingled with Biden’s afterwards.  I’ve never seen that before, and it was heartwarming to see two otherwise opposing candidates warm up to each other like that.  There was genuine affability there, and it makes me wonder, “Why can’t Congress be more like this?”

Ultimately, I think Lady Sarah succeeded in finally pushing the issues about her being fit for national office off the table.  Now, the race is all about McCain versus Obama.  It’s the final stretch, and the fate of our country and whether it can avoid the horrors of an Obama Presidency now lies in the hands of a cantankerous old fartsie wart.

God help us all. 

As much as I’m frothing at the mouth over the left’s putrid treatment and vicious smearing of Sarah Palin and her family, it’s always the Christians that manages to put me in a fire-breathing, throw-down mode. 

I found one one dissenter’s opinion of McCain’s choice for a running mate yesterday and read the following:

I came to this conclusion before I found out Palin has a five-month-old infant (I believe mothers [and fathers, OK?] should raise their children) and a knocked up teenage age daughter (who ought to give up the baby for adoption to an older, married, two-parent family) or that she’s under investigation for ethics violations.

You’re going to tell me that despite the daughter having the support of her entire well-to-do family, (and the fact that she is marrying the father), none of it is enough to justify keeping the baby?

La Shawn Barber (LSB) further links to a Dr. Laura piece to bolster her argument about why Palin was a bad choice too.  Yes, seriously.

With my jaw on the keyboard, I tapped out a comment on her blog and made it known that I thought her opinion here was one of the stupidest I’ve ever seen.  It was of course, promptly deleted, even though I wasn’t actually calling her stupid, just the views she held on the issue.  Well, now that she censored me (which she is perfectly free to do) I’ll just repeat my comments on this here blog of mine:

Um, what?  What???  That was one bar none, of the stupidest things I’ve ever seen you write.  Oh, and you’re a pigheaded skunk of a dweebish idiot too.

I added that last part just now by the way.  Yep, immaturity and spitefulness, that’s what I’m all about.

But besides that, LSB thinks Palin is ultimately unqualified, though admittedly much far more qualified than Obama is, and ultimately she really is qualified after all to be VP, so… um, what’s the problem again?

Ah yes, the problem is, (according to Dr. Laura), mothers can only do one thing at a time.  They can’t run the country and raise their families all at once, and to attempt to do both just makes them really bad Mommys.

Yet curiously enough, fathers seem to have no trouble with this.  How many fathers of wee little ones that were also Presidents did we have who still managed to make executive decisions even while their beloved ones were sick in bed?  I’m guessing quite a few, starting with Kennedy, who was the last Prez to have infants in the White House if I’m not mistaken.

And besides that, from what I’ve seen of the Palin family, it looks like each member of age appeared to take turns taking care of the younger ones.  This is not one father or one mother raising a family here: this is a whole family raising a family.  A truly cohesive unit making a group effort to support each other.

Yes I can see why Palin’s daughter would need to give the kid up for adoption here.  Gotta get that poor child far away from these whacknuts and their sick, sick circle of wubs after all, yesiree bobba ling.

Good grief.  How these Christian bloggers manage to get the audience they do when they up and say stupid controversial smack like this is beyond me.

On second thought, I probably answered my own question there. 

I only expect two people or so to show up, but I’m throwing this up here anyway just in case some hot single and conservative gal stumbles across my blog and wants to chat me up.

What can I say?  I gotta be me. 

Update: Thanks for the great chats all.  Bring on the debates! 

My mind has been working overtime coming up with new (and sometimes borrowed) Sarah Palin facts, so rather than have it disappear into the abyss that is my mind, I’m posting them here for your enjoyment.  I’ll update the list as I think of more fun facts worthy of adding. 

• Sarah Palin is the only person Chuck Norris fears.
• Sarah Palin can drill for oil with her bare hands.
  
• Sarah Palin is the reason why Bambi can’t find his mother.
  
• Sarah Palin uses a hair dryer made by Smith and Wesson.
  
• The Olympics Russian hockey team forfeited a game when they found out they were playing Sarah Palin.
  
• Sarah Palin’s glasses were forged in the fires of Mordor.
  
• Sarah Palin’s lipstick is actually a spent .357 magnum shell.
  
• Sarah Palin doesn’t wear slippers, she shoves her feet up the rear ends of two polar bears and uses them instead.
  
• When God said let there be light, He first asked for Sarah Palin’s permission.
  
• Sarah Palin uses Chuck Norris’s beard to file her nails.
  
• If at first you don’t succeed, you are not Sarah Palin.

Update: Heh, looks like someone made a whole blog out of Sarah Palin facts too.  They’re also twittering Sarah Palin facts using the pretext, “Little Known Fact:” as well.  Since I didn’t use that my facts didn’t get included.  Ah well, if I think up more I’ll post them on Twitter so at least those make the list. 

I was recently sent these Sarah Palin banners:

Kudos to CalTech Girl for coming up with these awesome poster images.  If you want to use them as well for your site, please include a credit link back to her blog!

Whether it’s Palin or otherwise, conservative babes are HAWT. 

It’s no secret that I’ve been raging against all things estrogen for the better part of the year now, having given up on the female race as being entirely irredeemable and utterly given over to the cause of evil.

And then someone like Sarah Palin comes along and helps me restore my faith somewhat.  Maybe, just maybe, all is not completely lost.

McCain’s astonishing VP pick (and current governor of Alaska) is gorgeous, articulate, smart, conservative, accomplished, and by all appearances a devout Christian too.  She’s also a member of the NRA.    Oh, and she’s gorgeous as well.  Did I mention she’s gorgeous? 

In short, she’s everything I could have ever wanted in a woman.  Someone who embraces her femininity, but is still a tomboy of sorts who would grind you to ashes if you ever did her dirty.  They don’t call her Barracuda for nothing after all.    More importantly, her attractive appeal is grounded in her intelligence and principled beliefs, demonstrated in one part by in her refusal to abort her child she knew would be born with Down’s syndrome.  Meanwhile others who profess to be Christians have no moral aversion to supporting a candidate like the Obamanation, who stops just short of endorsing mass infancitide. 

Being awash in a sea of underwhelming females who spend half their days with their noses buried in Vogue magazines and their heads up Obama’s goomie gumbos, Palin arrives like a breath of fresh air.

Thank you Sarah Palin.  Thank you for helping me believe once again for the impossible, that there may just be another one like you out there, and that maybe someday soon, God will finally bring us together.
