How We All Got Permission To Be Sexist About Sarah Palin [Journalismism]
Everyone is treating Sarah Palin like a vapid celebrity and it is just so patronizing! Here she is, four thousand four hundred miles away from her tanning bed, meeting all these important people with accents in her very most distinguished Nancy Pelosi outfits and president of Pakistan tells her she is "more gorgeous" than he expected her to be! Gossip columnist "nearly lunged" to check out the label on her jacket at a fancy dinner the other night. So sexist, right! And it gets soooooo much more offensive!

Sarah Palin’s pastor (and witches) problem
Earlier this week, Max Blumenthal posted a video in which a Kenyan pastor blessed Sarah Palin and asked the congregation of Palin’s church to pray to Jesus Christ to protect her from “every form of witchcraft.” The video was shot in May 2005, prior to Palin’s announcing her candidacy to become governor of Alaska. In the video, Palin keeps her head lowered throughout Bishop Thomas Muthee’s blessing. In 2008, Palin spoke of her affection for Muthee, saying, “Pastor Muthee

Top Ten "Clues" In "Who Is Trig Palin's Mama" Mystery
  The whole 'who gave birth to baby Trig Palin' just won't go away.  Some think it's ridiculous to even consider that Governor and vice president candidate Sarah Palin "faked" her pregnancy in order to protect her daughter Bristol, while others feel that it's very possible that Palin did just that - that she pretended to be pregnant with Trig, when infact (maybe), he is the son of Bristol.  Whatever you believe, the list of "facts" mentioned after

Sarah Palin: The Beauty Pageant Years, On Video!
So some dude from Alaska has uploaded "100% legit footage of the 1984 Miss Alaska Pageant featuring Sarah Palin." That's right, the lady who, if Barack Obama fucks up in the debate tonight, will be the next President of the United States (according to an actuary I went to college with). There's more to come, apparently, but this is a pretty good start. Rrowr. I'd let her repeat her nonsensical talking points to me anytime.

Sarah Palin in a Swimsuit: You Know You Want It

Sarah Palin Is Vice President...Of Corn
What, no moose?Sarah Palin has been carved in corn. Duke Wheeler of Whitehouse, Ohio, commissioned an Idaho artist to create a Palin likeness on his land in the hope of drawing crowds interested in seeing the corny lady. It took the artist eight hours to complete the project he believes would make Palin "proud".It's impressive, but also undeniably weird. And was the choice of crop intentional? Palin, like corn, shows up where you least expect.In other movements, tonight's presidential debate will go on. Mc

Sarah Palin: Miss Alaska Pageant Video
 Sarah Palin, long before she was the GOP candidate for vice-president, long before she was the governor of Alaska, long before she was the mayor of whatever that town is called, long before she was a TV sports reporter, long before she was a mother or married, she was a beauty queen.   She was in the Miss Alaska Pageant, and this is that pageant.  Swimsuit edition.Mind you, this is not a post of judgment.  I'm not a hater of the beauty pageant.  I can't say I've ever wa

Sarah Palin Making SNL Appearance?

Sarah Palin Beauty Pageant Video Surfaces
Footage of Sarah Palin, who placed second at the Miss Alaska Pageant in 1984, has hit the Web. In the clip, the Alaska governor (then Sarah Heath) struts on stage in a swimsuit. "Sarah says she wants to prepare for a career in television broadcasting by majoring in telecommunications and political science," the emcee says. The announcer continues: "It is no wonder that she has also been recognized by 'Who's Who?' since she has displayed her leadership in all areas, from academics to student politi

Sarah Palin The Next Playboy Bunny
Well maybe not but if she and John McCain don’t make it into the White House then Sarah Palin can call up Hugh Hefner for a job. The playboy owner has offered Palin a centerfold if she would like it. “Palin would make a great centerfold, I don’t know what it is, but there’s something about a really sexy-looking woman wearing glasses. Imagine what she’s like when the glasses come off! It would be a new definition of the word ‘vice’ in vice president.” So would Sarah make a good playboy

OMG Old Video of Sarah Palin In Ugly Swimsuit
Thank you, loyal readers, for sending us a few thousand tips about this YouTube video of Sarah Palin walking on a beauty-pageant stage in a very ’80s, unflattering one-piece.

Sarah Palin Talks to Reporters at Ground Zero
Yesterday, before heading to Pennsylvania for more campaigning, Republican vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin made an "unscheduled" visit to Ground Zero. She visited the Tribute WTC Visitor Center as well as Ladder Co. 10's firehouse, which has a bronze mural honoring the 343 firefighters who died on September 11. NY Daily News columnist Michael Daly happened to be at the Tribute WTC Visitor Center, signing copies of his book about Fire Chaplin Mychal Judge, when Palin arrived. He writes:My hosts s

Conservative Columnist Kathleen Parker: Palin Should Bow Out
Conservative columnist Kathleen Parker, previously an avid supporter of Sarah Palin, has called for the VP nominee to step down in her National Review column today saying: “As we’ve seen and heard more from John McCain’s running mate, it is increasingly clear that Palin is a problem. Quick study or not, she doesn’t know enough about economics and foreign policy to make Americans comfortable with a President Palin should conditions warrant her promotion. Palin’s recent inter

Carla Bruni-Sarkozy and Sarah Palin Picked the Wrong Week to Visit New York
Any other week, the arrival in New York of the Republican vice presidential nominee, Sarah Palin, and France’s first lady, Carla Bruni-Sarkozy, would have been huge news. The pair—possibly the two most-watched women in the world right now—certainly did get their share of headlines, but their trip was overshadowed by the bad news coming out of Wall Street. Still, they attended fancy parties, met world leaders, and even double-dated! (O.K., we made the last one up.) With their visit came more

Pakistan loves America now thanks to Sarah Palin

And when she drops the fetus.)…well add Pakistan President Asif Ali Zardari to the list of admirers.

What About the Veeps?
So after the first presidential debate, where did the vice presidential candidates end up? On the Republican side, Gov. Sarah Palin was not on any network. But Sen. Joe Biden made the rounds. He began with NBC before 11pmET and the end of the network broadcasts. His next stop — an interview with Chris Wallace on FNC. He also appeared on MSNBC with Keith Olbermann: Posted by SteveK | 11:29 PM | Politics new on mediabistro.com The Future of Social Medi

Poor Excuse For a President
Just so we're all clear, this is what passes for a presidential impersonator these days? All phony Sarah Palin needs to be is a white brunette with glasses, while Barack Obama is broken down into his most basic characteristics - male, African American, smiley. Had the photo caption not read "Presidential Impersonators," I wouldn't have even known these two were working - just perhaps some poorly dressed party goers. Making matters worse, this was a Rock the Vote event designed to encourage America's you
