Sarah Palin: Remember last week when
Katie Couric asked
Sarah Palin if she really thought that being able to see Russia from Alaska was evidence of foreign policy experience and
Palin was like, "Yah, sure,
Vladimir Putin flies over and we keep watch, dontcha know?" Well, even that flustered response was, let's be polite, inaccurate:
When Russian bombers approach American airspace and U.S. Air Force fighters are scrambled,
Sarah Palin's phone doesn't ring.
The Alaska governor has no command authority over the guardians of U.S. airspace despite her recent suggestion otherwise.
"She doesn't have any role in that process," Air Force Maj. Allen Herritage, spokesman for the Alaska North American Aerospace Defense Command, told the Daily News.
"The commander does not call the governor," noted Herritage. But I'm sure she hears about it on the news a little later. And that's gotta count for something, right?

Palin Perfects The Art Of Awkward Silence
Here's something new: A clip of Sarah Palin looking like an uninformed twit as she is asked fairly basic questions about politics. This scenario was brought up Tuesday, when we said Sarah couldn't name any Supreme Court cases, but the video shows she just can't name any with which she disagrees. Minor difference, but you know she couldn't even name a single one if she tried. Hell, she couldn't even name a newspaper when asked.
Compared to Joe Biden's intelligent, well-spoken a

Being Mean to Sarah Palin is Great for Ratings
Another reason that the VP debates tonight are going to be a bloodbath: The tougher anchors and networks are to Sarah Palin, the better their ratings. Charlie Gibson's 20/20 special when the former beauty queen couldn't tell him about the Bush Doctrine snagged him the #1 slot, Katie Couric's oft-repeated trainwreck with the candidate has made national headlines and won the anchor a place back in the nations heart, and Tina Fey's impression of the Alaskan native has been viewed over 4.5 m

Only One-In-Three Voters Now See Sarah Palin As ‘Qualified’
What a tragic month for our Snowbilly Dingbat! On August 29, just hours after Barack Obama’s stadium acceptance speech in Denver, John McCain waddled out with his exciting maverick veep pick, a nine-year-old child abandoned at the Wal-Mart in some exurban Alaskan gloom-hole. And America loved her! Or, “the Americans who voted for Bush, twice, thought she was better than that liberal Mexican McCain, at least.” And now? The only people still standing up for Our Sarah are the stupidest people
Bristol Palin's Wedding
Here comes the bride, Bristol Palin, 17, and pregnant....When exactly is Bristol Palin and boyfriend (or rather fiance) Levi Johnston getting married? No one is exactly sure - well I'm sure the Palin and Johnston families know but the rest of us, not really. (Probably none of business but I digress...)A Palin spokesperson said, "It's a private family matter. The children are off-limits."Will the wedding be before or after the November election? That's
Radar Writer: Palin Is Popular Because Young Feminists "Dropped The Torch" [Riding The Third Wave]
Feminists! We don't like Sarah Palin. (Other "types" of women feel similarly, according to Time.) Of course, many men viscerally dislike the gun-toting Alaskan Governor, but talking about them is boring and doesn't conjure up images of mud wrestling. Over on Radar's website, Hipster Handbook scribe Robert Lanham tries to argue that many women dislike Sarah Palin because she exposes the deep chasm between second and third wave feminists.
"Feminism has been suffering an identity crisis for years, and

The Sarah Palin Drinking Game for Tonights Debate.
Here are the Rules - You have to take a drink every time Palin:
• references how you can see Russia from Alaska and calls it “experience”
• winks or gives a thumbs up to the audience
• Calls Senator Biden “Joe” or the moderator “Gwen” (remember how many times she said “Charlie” during the interview?)
• says [...]
Your Vote Counts: The People Choose Architechts Over Sarah Palin to Return to ‘HBB’
In this week’s Your Vote Counts, readers chose British screamers Architects‘ video for “Always” to return for Saturday’s “Headbangers Ball“. The band bested Avenged Sevenfold, In Flames, The Human Abstract and Hatebreed to win the coveted spot.
For some, it was a tough decision. “In Flames has always been great… but Architects? They’ve got some amazing sound,” wrote Engage What Remains. “Those dual scream/sing shouts? Amazing. I thin

Palin-Biden Debate Drinking Game Begins NOW
Enough with the high-concept drinking games, the fancy prose, and the unrealistic situations — that you are drinking “with friends,” for example. By this time next year, you might be sharing a storage space with your entire extended family, so let’s go ahead and enjoy the luxury of drinking alone and yelling at the teevee, one more time together. Also, we are all poor now, so the beverages will be dramatically simplified. Cheap beer, box wine and a plastic gallon jug of “Vodka

Sarah Palin Gang-Rape Joke Gets Sandra Bernhard Banned
I’m not exactly a fan of Sarah’s, but Sandra Bernhard did take her joke a bit too far. When it comes to high-ranking politicians, they fall into the ‘off limits’ category. You can’t say sumthin like that without facing the repercussions.
Sandra Bernhard’s recent cracks about Gov. Sarah Palin are no laughing matter, according to a Boston women’s shelter.
Officials at Rosie’s Place cut the comedian as a headliner from an annual benefit after she joked that Pal
Diddy Scared of Sarah Palin Blog Video
In a creepy (albeit true) commentary on Sarah Palin, Diddy attacks the vice presidential hopeful. He calls her “worse than the boogeyman” and hides under the covers. He made the video to encourage people to vote and further expose the ignorance of the candidate. Palin failed to answer a simple question of what magazines she [...]

What could be more fun that shooting defenseless ... [Sarah Palin]
What could be more fun that shooting defenseless woodland creatures? How about shooting them with a pretty pink Sarah Palin hunting bow?! Lakota Industries Inc., an Ohio manufacturer, has introduced the "Sara-Cuda," a $590 pink camouflage hunting bow inspired by the Alaska governor. But it's not just a tribute to everyone's favorite mother/moose hunter/maverick. According to the website, it's for all the "women like Sarah Palin who bear the responsibility of family and work while strengthening the moral fi

Palin for McCain, Palin for Palin
It’s obvious now that Sarah Palin’s performance in Thursday’s vice-presidential debate is crucial to the G.O.P.’s chances of prevailing in November.
If she lives up the ditzy Tiny Fey caricature that has come to define her, Palin will complete a five-week transformation from political sensation to liability, severely complicating John McCain’s effort to win over swing voters and erase Barack Obama’s slight but steady lead. But if she somehow defies the low expectations– maybe with a brilliant

Campaign tries to explain Palin’s Putin comment
AP - Gov. Sarah Palin cites vigilance against Russian warplanes coming into U.S. airspace over Alaska as one of her foreign policy credentials. But the U.S. military command in charge says that hasn’t happened in her 21 months in office.
"When you consider even national security issues with Russia, as (Prime Minister Vladimir) Putin rears his head and comes into the airspace of the United States of America, where — where do they go? It’s Alaska," the Republican vice presidential nominee s

We've never been big fans of Matt Damon. Not that there's anything wrong with him, he just doesn't do anything for us. However, we find his commentary on Sarah Palin ridiculously hilarious.

MATT DAMON DOES NOT LIKE SARAH PALIN
Matt Damon hit Sarah Palin in the face today while in Toronto promoting ONEXONE a Canadian children’s charity. In his interviews he claims that he is concerned about what happens when John McCain kicks the bucket in office if the Republicans win.
“You do the actuary tables, there’s a one out of three chance, if not more, that McCain doesn’t survive his first term, and it’ll be President Palin. It’s like a really bad Disney movie, “The Hockey Mom.’ Oh, I̵
