Campaign handlers need to campaign against her, and I suspect the moderate GOPs who gave us McCain do to.
(My initial interpretation of what happened was completely bogus. See Chris’ correction below).

I have no idea if Naomi Wolf’s book is any good or not. I’m not even done with the video. I have it paused now at 1:45.
But what is Meredith Vierra thinking and what are viewers supposed to think?
Wolf reports that the First Brigade is being deployed in the United States in contravention to ….
Well, […]

I’ve got a book coming out (I think) that goes into the details, so I won’t talk here about the so-called “TrooperGate” and the bizarre political theatre being acted out in Juneau.
I do wonder though if Alaska will be worse off for Palin’s absence. It looks as if there was yet another “good old boy” […]

More descent into Banana Republic.
Here is the legislation. It is explicitly comprehensive sex education and it is explicitly aimed at kindergartners as well as older children. Obama voted for comprehensive sex education for kindergartners. If it was only due to the predator issue, that’s fine. But the legislation is not limited to that at all.
See […]

I live in an aspiring banana republic. They actually call themselves the Barack Obama Truth Squad, just in case you thought this was a non-partisan threat.

But hey. I hear Sarah Palin once asked about removing some offensive books from a public library. So she’s dangerous.
UPDATE: Maybe I […]

I won’t vote for Obama, but this makes me want to:

Do you find this video shocking? I do. I am shocked to learn there is still a statute that requires ruitual obeisance to the American flag. Didn’t the Supreme Court settle this in the flag burning controversy […]

I guess if the Nazis had allowed the killing of the unfit individually, without coercive taxation and government mandates, then it would have been defensible according to the arbitrary bloodlust articulated by the alleged “Center for the Advancement of Capitalism”:
So in the anti-abortion advocate’s eyes, a parent’s desire to raise healthy children by squelching unhealthy […]

I have Chris’s feed in my google reader, so I was led to this story in Boing Boing expecting a horror story about a school suspension. No. It was worse. The police were called and a case was opened. Because of an evil fourth grade super-villian with a broken pencil sharpener.
But then, at the bottom […]

Watch this video.
Thanks go to Chris for linking this. (I wasn’t aware that I was copying his link line).
And here’s a confession: I almost put up a content warning about the F word. If that is what offends you in this video, then you have serious priority problems.

I’m pretty sick of questions about whether Palin should be a ruler or whether she is compromising her motherhood by running for office and “neglecting” her children.
First thing. Nothing in Genesis 1 or 2 dictates that every man must or should marry and have children. In fact, it is perfectly compatible with Genesis 1 and […]

Legislators as passive murderers.
Other great line: “The Second Amendment is not about duck hunting.”

My parents have FIOS. Which means they have fast internet. Which means I can actually watch hulu.com.
It is a wonderful thing, except for the part where I have to travel to Texas.
They also have an elliptical machine with a board fastened to it so you can watch your laptop screen while you pedal or step […]
