no, ungrammatical...

"Oh, and Palin is still a bitch... " .... JAFOCHECK

I wouldn't have expected there to be any change since the bridge to nowhere, the election race and sacking a policeman or three.... you know... the leopard and its spots kinda thing.

Could anyone have imagined when I posted this in '08 just how bad Obama and Biden would have ended up being for America? I think its safe to say its an unmitigated disaster. And who would have imagined that people would still have the chutzpah to goof on Palin now that we have a real buffoon for a VP performing real acts of buffoonery almost everytime he makes an appearance?  Its a big fn deal I tell you

No, that loses the intended emphasis

You should be thanking your luck stars it ain't McCain and Palin... otherwise you'd be at war with more nations, eating moosemeat and driving over bridges to nowhere in snowmobiles

I find it ironic that the same crowd who claimed that the US needs her allies and cannot act "unilaterally" (i.e. with Spanish, British, Polish and Australian support but without the blessing of France) consider it a foreign policy success that Obama managed to worsen relations with most US allies.

When countries reapproach Russia it doesn't mean we are closer to world-wide peace, it means that those countries do not trust the US any more.

The number of countries the US was at war with didn't change under Bush. Why would it have changed under McCain?

One of the selling points for Obama/Biden (and anyone thinking that Biden is in any way intelligent is just a mouthpiece for idiots) was he would heal the rifts with other nations.  Well, he has.  He has just created more rifts than he has healed.  But I do not think that was by intent.  Incompetance is as incompetance does.

Actually it did.  Afghanistan.  But then, last I checked, Bush did not start that war, and NATO said it would end it.  That goes to the point above about alienating countries.  Does not seem Obama did too well with France just this week.

How to win friends and influence people... yeah, Obama Biden laden is doing a great job. I guess the aim is to alienate the entire planet thus giving the US an excuse to invade.

Wasn't Al-Qaeda already at war with the US?

My take on this is that all politicians are very bad jokes who most of the time speak hate.  Just my opinion, nothing more than that. 

Speaking of the 'Bridge to Nowhere' - I remember how much noise was made at the time that it was a 'dead end' bridge to an island that nobody lived on, a horrible boondoggle.

I have friends who live in Ketchican.  That bridge was to be to their airport, which happens to be on an 'uninhabited' island.  So they still have to take a ferry to get to their airport.  Not the end of the world, to be sure, but characterizing the bridge as a 'bridge to nowhere' was just a teeny bit disingenuous.

Yes it was.  But when Afghanistan refused to give them up was when the US went to war with them.

Didn't Sarah Palin announce that she was totally against the "bridge to nowhere"?

A politician?  Disingenuous?  I'm shocked.  Schocked, I say. 

Um, didn't change under Bush???  So what was the invasion of Iraq, then... a training exercise, or just little R&R excursion so's the troops could let off a little steam??

Anyhow... on a lighter note....

I think you're right.   As I recall, Palin said something like: "All roads (and bridges) in Alaska should lead to Wasilla, so that everybody, Alaskans and visitors alike, can come worship at my statue on the town hall steps."

Yeah, she apparently commissioned an artist to do a Rocky-like statue so's Alaskans had a likeness of her to worship while she was away in D.C.  Dunno if it ever got erected, though.  Seems she had a Janet Jackson-like wardrobe malfunction during its commission (a nipple slip), and because the statue was so life-like, some townsfolk were against it's erection... for fear some followers and those rather staunch Republicans might get erected on the town hall steps, also.

Ketchikan is actually how it's spelled.  Funny, I might know whomever you're speaking of.  It's a small close knit community of roughly 13,000 within the city limits.  Also Gravina (the isle of nowhere as it's been dubbed) isn't completely uninhabited and this bridge could potentially provide access to other communities in SE AK.  I'm a resident of Ktn and don't personally think we need said bridge but I've been told that we're the only community in the US that needs to take a ferry back and forth to it's airport.  We were promised this bridge years ago and a few people have possibly died from the extra 30 min. wait for the ferry and consequently emergency services are a lot slower at responding. 

And for the record, Palin referring to a community of her constituents as "Nowhere" hasn't sat well with us either.  You folks in the lower 48 can have her.

Just so long as nobody in the lower 48 decides the same and figures to send her here...

We already had more than our share of dipshits and dizzy bitches (Pauline Hanson, Amanda Vanstone) in politics who had/have absolutely no clue, and we DON'T want Palin.  For one: we couldn't afford the wardrobe... and two; we prefer our wildlife without buckshot.

Starkers, you are truly unique.

I don't know if this is a cheap shot at hunters because it seems to me that I read that somewhere else on this thread, but if so and you're not a vegetarian then you're a hypocrite.  I can't stand how people get so sactimonious about people shooting their dinner as opposed to having something raised in a cage.  If you don't waste any of the meat and the animal isn't allowed to suffer then you're simply providing for your family and therefore shouldn't be labeled a sadist or a gun nut.  I don't hunt myself, but my dad does and I see no problem with it.  Also you're previous post about all of us being staunch republicans is ill informed to some extent.  Most of us are fierce independents however lean to the right simply because of the way the left destroyed our timber industry.  Think about it.  What industry besides fishing (in it's decline by the way) and tourism (seasonal at best) are we left with.  I watched a lot of $ leave this town and it's still reeling.  Unemployment is a huge problem here and we're constantly being preached to as if we don't know how to sustain an industry.

You could always hunt the unemployed....'kill two birds', as it were...;)

"It'a a long road....when you're on your own....."

Still fighting the same stupid 'wars'. still squabbling amongst ourselves. ridiculous, stupid crap.

say... how much i could make selling hunt dems/repubs licenses....wow!

or....maybe just junk the whole stupid mess, and start over again.

you got the song right, Jafo.

Good chance that you do know them or of them, Saint C; they are semi-retired & spend the winter here in Arizona.  They're still a little miffed about the bridge being scrubbed, too, but they still admire Palin.

Sorry for the typo, BTW.  Been to Ketchikan once myself, did the tourist thing & took a float plane up into the Misty Fiords.  Beautiful up there, enjoyed every minute of it.  Hope the economic situation improves there soon.  Jafo may be on to something for ya in the meantime.

To quote S. Palin: "Thanks, but no thanks."

i love all those silly photoshop pics, the more outrageous the better. politicians are just a bunch of self-centred wind bags anyway so i never take them seriously
