In a country where Dan Quayle can be vice-president and George W. Bush can be a president, a Wasilla girl can dream.

In the Sarah Palin hypocrisy thread, you stated that the Weathermen had been guilty of murder. To my knowledge, this is not true, though I would be happy to be proven wrong. In the comments on that thread, though, he seemed more equivocal, so I asked you to clarify the facts behind your accusation. You did not reply, but perhaps you had stopped monitoring comments in that thread. So let me ask here: what evidence do you have that the WU as an organization committed murder? The pipe bomb that killed the cop (1, not 2, though a second was injured), to which you seemed to refer, has never been linked to them. Either you know something I don’t or you are making baseless and very serious accusations, which play directly into the hands of those smearing Obama over this.

so she was vetted as a … maverick!
"But I will not let myself be reduced to silence."It’s the $22,800 two week make-over ….made her into a diva:
What a campaign, eh. Ten days to go and we read this?
WOW!
Does anyone recall the McCain Ads attacking Obama as a celebrity?
A GOP fantasy scenario for spring, 2009…
John McSame, “Et tu Sarah?”
Well, what can you expect from a maverick other than that she will go rogue?!
Isn’t a maverick “erratic” by definition?
No idea how many times I passed this sign with the tombstone on it before I finally got curious enough to read it carefully. I wasn’t sure if it was an election sign or a Halloween decoration. At some point I read the words “for coroner”, and then the name “Lewis”. Was it a gag campaign sign? Al Lewis, maybe?
Well, my curiosity finally grew to the point that I Googled to find out if we were electing a coronoer this November. And yeah, it turns out that we are.
Latest Kos poll has Obama running close in AZ, McCain’s home state..!

Or maybe it’s just her failure to understand what she needs to be doing.

What a VP does … ?
"But I will not let myself be reduced to silence."Is the Phillies rain delay ever going to end? I think I’m going to explode. The fans are getting drenched, its a conspiracy dammit. Home field advantage being trashed by the gods. I knew they were against us there is no other explanation for the collapse of 1964.
Here’s Sarah’s dream come true. Click on various items around the oval office (and use headphones if you’re at work)
thanks. I finally went and looked at it, FUNNY!
IIRC this site has been up for a week or more, before the shopping scandal broke, so they must have updated it to put the Neiman-Marcus boxes outside the door.
The dinosaurs are taking longer to cross now and there is a whole bunch of new stuff. (I’ve peeked there 3-4 times before.)
If you click on the door several times, you’ll cycle through various images. Same thing with the right side of her desk front: more than one item in there. 😉
The shredder is new, as is the note in the vase of flowers. I don’t recall seeing the statue of Justice before.
So the Oval Office conforms to the old cigarette ad: “so round, so firm, so fully packed”? 10 days and I shudder to think of what else they can cram in. Given the new revelations that even the insiders think she’s acting like a diva and she is acting more on her account than McCain’s, the designers probably have their mousefingers clicking away. I could see the campaign bus leaving without her (sight from windows), perhaps a crack in the ceiling as the hammer of god/anvil/whatever lands on her pointy head, a celebrity or cartoon spotlight that misses her (with voiceover for a talent search), a dustup (maybe from the trashcan), and there could be another fire… ashes of history. I’d also expect to see the AKIP flag somewhere in there at some point. Pity that a tanning bed is so big!
But they are obviously having fun assembling this, and we are having fun clicking around.

hammer of god/anvil/whatever
Hunter Thompson’s 1,000 lb. shithammer, perhaps…
She is such an uppity gal.
