Andrew Sullivan: Why Does Trig Matter? [Governor Sarah Palin driving them insane!]

The Atlantic ^ | June 28, 2010 | Andrew Sullivan

[Uncle Ivan]

Obligatory Palin photo,please?

[Bullish]

Don't be ridiculous.

I knew someone here would want to snipe me just because I'm not sold on your Goddess Palin.

[grey_whiskers]

Hey, Andy --

Not only is Trig hers, but apparently she's been breast-feeding him too.

See, when you have sex with women, not only is it fun, but sometimes babies come out about nine months later.

Then the woman produces a fluid which nourishes the baby.

Hint: look up the word mammal sometime.

But I guess you're too ignorant and sheltered to know about that.

Cheers!

[Palladin]

Good post.

What in the world would an aging queen like Andrew know about pregnancy, childbirth, or breastfeeding?

The last time he saw a woman’s breast was when his mother nursed him about sixty years ago.

[redheadtoo]

...then drop it surreptitiously in some public gathering place where there are magazines to read.

Why put it out to pollute the minds of others. Just dump it with the recycling.

[Auntie Mame]

I distinctly remember reading a story about Sarah Palin in a magazine (perhaps it was People?), while she was pregnant. There were many pictures of a definitely pregnant Palin in the governor’s office along with a nice, positive story.

So, according to Sullivan, and others, she planned the entire fake pregnancy story far in advance of being picked to be McCain’s running mate. For five or six months she walked around with pillows stuffed in her clothing, gradually adding more pillows to fake the pregnancy, being interviewed for magazine articles, and then finally faking the birth.

Yeah, right.

[Finalapproach29er]

Wow.
Thank you.

Why put it out to pollute the minds of others

Well, sometimes it does go directly to the garbage, depending on what is on the cover. But, I feel guilty throwing them away because my mother sent them. She's very liberal, but you can't argue with a 97 year old retired school teacher.

[goat granny]

***Who will it be? Gingrich, Romney, Huckabee - McCain (shudder)?***

All 4 of those names brings up a little vomit into the throat.....I will not vote for any of them...Shysters and posers

[AdaGray]

Oh dear. The hate fairie’s wings are all a-flutter. They just can’t deal with the fact that Sarah connects and they remain on the fringe.

[dforest]

Now I remember who you are. I figured you were just some kook who had their self confused with someone worth remembering.

But alas, you have proved yourself a petty little booger eating weasel coward, same ilk as Andrew. The two of you resort to the same tactics. That's what cowards are. They work behind the backs of others. I am sure Palin wasn't notified by him that the cheap shot was coming.

Any reservations I have about Palin are not personal. I like the woman and her family. I haven't chosen my candidate yet because no candidate has said they are running. I criticize all of them.

Talk about obsessed sparky, post #15 sounds like the mewlings of a lovesick puppy. Unhinged it is. Sure doesn't sound like the kind of reason and logic that comes from a mind choosing who will be candidate for President in what will be one of the most difficult times in America.

I pity you.

[ScottinVA]

Twisted homos like Sullivan regard women like Sarah Palin through one prism:

“She’s the ‘competition’”

[NurdlyPeon]

I pity you.

Right back at ya, pal. YOU built your reputation on this forum, not me.

[dforest]

My reputation is fine around here. You just look like a petty little fool.

If you don’t like what I say, rather than being a sleazy little stalker peckerwood, just hit the abuse button and tell the mods or JR that I should be banned because I have yet to be bumpin and jumpin on the campaign bus yet. After all, 2012 is two years away yet.

I am sure they will take it up with me and decide what punishment should be meted out to me.

See ya!

[NurdlyPeon]

Oh, and by the way, no, you still haven't even come close to answering my question. Allow me to re-post it for you: "Explain to me, if you would, how it would have benefited Sarah Palin and the people of Alaska for her to have remained in office. Also, in the process of explaining this to me, convince me that you are aware of her tactical situation as it existed at the time."

Still waiting.

[dforest]

I already answered your question. You just didn’t care for my answer.

Nobody has proved yet that stepping down will not be the deciding hammer used against her if she should decide to run. Can’t be proved one way or another until we have declared candidates and a primary process.

But I am equally not sure, since we do not know who will be running, what the downside to the other candidates will be.

I have stated, more than once on this forum that Palin would have my vote should she be the GOP nominee. I may even vote for her in the primary, not that it matters in my state. We don’t vote until May.

I don’t qualify this opinion as PDS.

Now, I hope you are satisfied.

[NurdlyPeon]

How can I care or not care for your answer when you still haven't given me one yet? The only thing you've done so far is dance around, blow smoke, try to turn the argument around, toss out cheap insults, and tell us all about how you're really a big Palin fan. And I didn't ask you about how her decision might play with electorate two years down the line, what I said was, and I'll re-post it for you here: "Explain to me, if you would, how it would have benefited Sarah Palin and the people of Alaska for her to have remained in office. Also, in the process of explaining this to me, convince me that you are aware of her tactical situation as it existed at the time."

Still waiting.

[dforest]

get lost

You are a cheesy bully and I am done with you.

I was nicer to you than you deserve chump.

I hope Palin isn’t counting on you to win votes for her.
