If You Are Anti-Palin, Like Me, You Should Read/Watch This – Could We Be Wrong?

09/10/2008 New Sarah Palin Scandal from National Enquirer – Click Here

Note:  This post was delayed 24 hours because “someone” had my account frozen while WordPress checked on some images from the church with the, “I kissed a girl, then I went to hell” sign. 

I’m also re-thinking my re-thinking of Palin.  Extreme right-wing Christian nuts should just stay in their houses and pray for sinners like me.  We’d all be much happier. 

So during the last 24 hours I have not been able to post anything I have been using my spare time getting straight Christian girls to kiss me . . . and they liked it.

Here is the post in question minus the “offending” images.  And yes, I agree the entire thing is quite offensive.   Wonder who on Earth had a problem with my post?

Well, just don’t ever use images from a church website – even if there is no copywrite notice on them.  Churches don’t want to get the word out about their services – it’s all so secret you know.

I stayed up way too late last night and will admit that as a result I could be like the gay In-a-Fog Cabin Republicans.   But this has been bothering me all day.  Is it possible that we’re wrong? 

First, I’ll point out the obvious.  Democrats always reexamine their positions and rarely think in terms of black and white.  That’s why Republicans can do such a good job of staying on message.  But my qualms about the Sarah Palin thing seem a little beyond that.  

Oh, I don’t know. 

I’m shaking my head as I type this.   From what I can ascertain Sarah Palin has no knowledge of US foreign policy so she isn’t someone that I could vote for, there is just no way.   On the other hand, when I put her against the experience of Obama, I’m really not sure that he’s that much better.   Of course, I doubt that he would shoot and skin a puppy for breakfast . . .  And then again, there was a time when a man named Howard Dean impressed me with his vigor and new way of approaching politics.

Palin just seems so extreme.   Do the majority of Republicans really think that if a pre-teen girl is raped that the government should force the child to have the baby; even if her family doesn’t want her to have the baby?  What if the rapist is her father?  The government should make these personal decisions for families and their children?  No, reasonable people really don’t think that but Sarah Palin does and that’s not reasonable to me.

Do the majority of Republicans really think that Sarah Palin is ready to take over as president should she be called to do so as a VP?  No, they really don’t.   No doubt they are just as tired of what they see as Democrat antics as I am of Republican games, tricks, double speak, divide and benefit.  

Likewise, I don’t think Obama is really that ready either.  But I do think that Obama is more likely to bring us together as a country than is McCain.   I was bracing myself for Obama to pick a VP that would be selected for political reasons.   I was so relieved when he instead picked someone with the type of experience that’s needed to deal with the many diplomatic issues and outside threats that we face.  McCain, he just went for the vote.   And, no matter how much I try to see the other side, I have a really hard time with that.

Strangely enough when I came home from work today I learned that Sally Quinn has expressed some doubts regarding her own initial reaction to Sarah Palin.  I’ll give you a link for the video here in a second.

Right now I just want to reflect and ramble a little further on what all of this means.  I feel confident that Palin is not ready and I feel confident that McCain has no new ideas to take us forward and that his first chance to show leadership and judgment was thrown away to buy votes.  Yet, that is the American way, isn’t it? 

Obama is still a big question mark for me.  Instead of digging up dirt on Sarah Palin, tonight I think I’ll spend more time getting to know Obama.   If I would have voted for Howard Dean, I can’t claim that my negative reaction to Sarah Palin is all about experience.  And, why didn’t I take any pleasure in seeing the first woman selected by a major party to run as VP?  What was that all about?   Am I just as glazed over, gulping down the grape koolaid as my Fox News in-laws?   Or have the Republican tactics of using issues like marriage equality left me so bitter that I can’t think “straight?”

I’m tired, really tired.  Didn’t sleep one minute last night.  Better save this thinking for later.

Sarah Palin Family – Photos from Mysterious MySpace Page

Please Keep Watching 2 Lesbos Goin At It

*Updated September 2 – New Video Available – Sarah Palin speaking at Assembly of God Church.  Church and State – Palin’s favorite mix. 

*Updated September 2 – Perez Hilton, YouTube and a boat load of others have photos claiming to show Bristol Palin drinking.  Those photos are NOT Bristol Palin.   There are no photos showing Bristol Palin drinking alcohol. 

In other news – 2 unknown girls from a small town in Alaska are reported as being up shit creek.

*Updated September 1

The New York Post has more details including quotes from the boyfriend’s MySpace page saying that he doesn’t want children.    Time also has an article.    You might also want to read the spanking given to McCain by Sally Quinn, a Washington Post reporter.    Here is a taste:

 

And now we learn the 17-year-old daughter, Bristol, is pregnant. She and the father of the child plan to marry. This may be a hard one for the Republican conservative family-values crowd to swallow. Of course, this can happen in any family. But it must certainly raise the question among the evangelical base about whether Sarah Palin has been enough of a hands-on mother.

McCain claims he knew about the pregnancy, and was not at all concerned. Why not? Not only do we have a woman with five children, including an infant with special needs, but a woman whose 17-year-old child will need her even more in the coming months. Not to mention the grandchild. This would inevitably be an enormous distraction for a new vice president (or president) in a time of global turmoil. Not only in terms of her job, but from a media standpoint as well.

Although others aren’t so quick to want to jump in on this story.  Hilzoy says this:

Imagine yourself in her position: there you are, seventeen years old, pregnant, unmarried. Maybe you understand what happened and why; and maybe your parents and friends do as well. But zillions of bloggers and reporters and pundits are about to make the most personal details of your life into a political issue, and they don’t understand it at all. And yet, despite that, they are about to use you and your unborn child to score points on one another, without any regard whatsoever for you and your actual situation. 

I want no part of this. None at all.

You can read the rest of Hilzoy’s view here.  

Now, to the photos.  This is Levi Johnston and Bristol Palin; and a mysterious MySpace page that apparently no longer exists.   Click on the photo to enlarge.  Enjoy the photos of the Sarah Palin family and have fun trying to figure out why this would be of any significance to anyone except the immediate family.   We’re only posting because we have no shame and love readers.
