Sarah Palin nominated for Razzie
politico ^ | Feb. 26, 2012 | DAVID COHEN

Posted on 02/26/2012 3:15:30 PM PST by Mozilla

The former vice presidential candidate was nominated Saturday for a Golden Raspberry Award as worst actress for her “performance” in the documentary “The Undefeated,” a film about her political career.

The tongue-in-cheek Razzies, which purport to salute the worst in the world of movies each year, typically are presented the day before the Academy Awards but their schedule was shifted this year - the nominees were released Saturday and the winners (or losers, depending on how you look at it) are to be announced April 1.

Alaska’s former governor, if she were to give this any thought at all, could take some comfort in being in good company; among her fellow nominees this year are such noted performers as Al Pacino (a supporting actor nod for “Jack and Jill”) and Nicolas Cage (worst actor for “Drive Angry”).

Palin’s fellow nominees in the worst actress category are Kristen Stewart (“Breaking Dawn”), Sarah Jessica Parker (both “New Year’s Eve” and “I Don’t Know How She Does It”) and two men performing in drag, Martin Lawrence (“Big Mommas: Like Father, Like Son”) and Adam Sandler, whose nomination for “Jack and Jill,” was one of a record 11 he received Saturday in various Razzie categories.

Really,,,,this silly, sophomoric “award” is an important thing to the mindless Left. You’d think they’d be embarrassed picking on Sarah Palin at a time when their icon, JFK, was again revealed as a disgusting piece of filth that never should have been elected to the presidency of this nation. Their runner-up hero is the cheating liar, Bill Clinton.

Democrats have no integrity, so they ridicule those who expose their own infantile fecklessness. One can evaluate the character of a person by the enemies he has.

I am sure she is hoping to stay Undefeated, so she has to win this.

Ridicule of political "enemies".

It's the Alinsky way; and in this case, practiced by icky show people, most of whom are Obama's willing and obedient servants

meanwhile, they give an Oscar to the wooden Al Gore. Does anyone outside of leftists care about Oscars anymore?

Yes it is the leftists way to attack Palin’s character, but it only makes her more powerful. Hollywood is controlled by people who have nothing in common with the majority of people in the country.

What liberals hate about Sarah Palin more then anything is not her political views, its the fact that she is HAPPY..Have you ever met a happy liberal, I haven’t. They are miserable, and they can’t stand the fact that Sarah is a happily married woman with a wonderful family who loves her very much. Libs just can’t stand it. They hate Conservatism but they hate seeing a happy Conservative woman even more

And the fact that she’s really, really good looking also makes the leftists hate her, especially the women.

She was being herself, not pretending to be something else. That is a strange concept to the left.

I’m kind of lost, why nominate Mrs.Palin?
Shouldn’t they have nominated the woman who
played her in the movie? Of course that
would make too much sense.

All you have to do to corrupt the press is to get a 4in1 printer at Staples for fifty bucks, buy a couple books of stamps, get another e-mail address, then set up an event with enough booze and fat food to satisfy their cravings for 24-hours, and you get something in the paper about like this report. They have to go, they can’t survive in the manner they would prefer through honest effort. Small town folks, don’t you all have a couple folks who have come back home for rehab or residential care whose resumes list important publications, but whose brains are fried. They are the ones who consistently bring up the most vacuous liberal socialist talking points, most discredited years ago, and get a few passes because they came from “good families” and got an education at a prestigious institution where they never learned s#!t from Shinola.

Alinsky says that "ridicule is our strongest weapon," but he is so far WRONG, I don't even know where to start. The strongest weapon we have is TRUTH. Pure and simple.

That would be cool if she gave an acceptance speech. Usually they go over very well for the accepter. I think Sandra Bullock gave an acceptance speech for both her Oscar and Razzie in the same weekend.

The real reason they hate Palin is because she is a conservative who has the charisma and power to convert more people into conservatives. That’s in large part because she’s a woman. It’s vitally important to the left that they retain a monopoly on every demographic group who aren’t white heterosexual males. The key to them retaining power is identity politics and using fearmongering against white heterosexual males to convert everyone else over to their side. When someone threatens to undermine the meme that all women and non-whites would be stupid not to be Democrats, that person has to be destroyed.

Did she write, produce, direct or star in the movie? If not, why is she being nominated?

The Razzies are run privately by an ad copyrighter. It’s a totally unofficial gag award that Hollywood doesn’t control.

Yes she does, doesn't she?

LOL, she also still seems to rattle the cage of certain posters at FreeRepublic!

They appear like clockwork on every posted Palin article, barking and salivating like Pavlov's dogs. Apparently trained to respond to just a mention of her name in the title.
