Because she’s masochistic, Sarah Palin went back for more inquisition with her MORTAL FOIL, the ancient fire dragon Katie Couric. Of course this time she brought her actual father, John McCain, to come and sit in and change the subject when Katie Couric starts getting mean. Palin sounds, uh, better(?), and is able to not completely mangle her 2002-era platitudinous bullcrap about “the terrorists.” On the other hand, Palin comes off as extremely pathetic because JOHN MCCAIN HAS TO DEFEND HER CONSTANTLY FROM KATIE COURIC. [YouTube]
$100 says Palin radically changes her hairstyle and it becomes the main topic of post-debate conversation.
He sorta seems like her lawyer.
Barry should do an ad comparing Walnuts to Joe Simpson, Hulk Hogan and Michael Lohan.
Sussemilch: So they’ll be going with the Sanjaya strategy, then?
Damnit, when are we getting the video where she can’t name any Supreme Court decisions except the evil ABORTION one?
BTW: her posture for a former beauty queen is atrocious. Aren’t you supposed to sit/stand up straight, point boobies straight out, and be able to balance a book on top of your head?
“Next time, I’m gonna bring MY DAD and then you’ll be SORRY!”
Those Pizza places are notorious for gotcha journalism.
Wow, Katie Couric looked really smug and satisfied with herself. I think the talk of pizza got her excited.
He brought his goddamned bitch…to the mutha fuckin’ Waffle Hut!
Serolf Divad: Since it was a cheese steak house, McCain can kiss the South Philly vote goodbye.
It’s like looking at the zaftig Midwestern prostitute Steve Buscemi picked up in Fargo trying to discuss the latest developments in quantum physics.
Sussemilch: Well, obvs, she’s gotta let down her hair to hide the earpiece during the debate.
And tape the receiver between her hooters.
But when she starts picking up the local sports radio signal by mistake, it’ll be rich.
Q: What to do about Iran? Governor Palin?
A: “I don’t think the Chicago Cubs got the best of that trade. That is, I mean, we cannot secure the best talent with such shortsighted trading. That is, I mean, what’s the frequency for the local weather channel?”
Walnuts! answered at least one question meant for Sarah. She almost said something before he cut her off and responded to Couric. At the time I thought if I were Palin I would have been pissed. I can’t find anything humorous about this shit. The old gasbag has to accompany Palin to interviews now, because otherwise Palin might say what she really believes. I have the strongest suspicion her personal views and beliefs probably make way more sense than the Schmidt campaign talking points. I doubt I would agree with anything she believes, but then I’ll probably never know since she’s a GOP slave.
Headline, “GOP Douchebags Ruin Woman’s Career”
Texan Bulldoggette: She has that ‘Man, my ‘roids are killing me posture and look.’
SelfDeprecatingFed:
I’ll take smug and self-satisfied any day over a pretty head full of butterflies and bird-song.
At least she’s not reading notes this time. Maybe there’s a cue card behind Couric?
You shouldn’t let your Daddy get all that excited defending you Sarah. You know his heath ain’t what it used to be.
I’ve said it before: Ready to be supervised on Day One.
I think its great how Palin just sits there, nods, smiles, and looks pretty while McCain spews forth incoherent, rambling, jibberish. I think did a better job debating in 10th grade mock trial than these two ass clowns.
Terry: This entire charade of an interview was reminiscent of a parent-teacher meeting with the student present.
“Now Mr. McCain- Sarah hasn’t been doing well in class and I think she may need to repeat this grade.”
“Is that a pizza place?”
“Wait, what?”
When Grampnuts! is forced to drop her from the ticket, how will the conversation play out? Will he tell her to look the other way and think about tending to the rabbits?
StrangelyBrown: bingo http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f611r8hEpVI
Hey, is that a Pakistan flag pin on her blouse?
I wish they would just let her loose to say what she wants, I want to hear about her Flintstones based theories of natural history. Men walking with dinosaurs 6000 years ago and all that fun stuff. Maybe toss in a little rapture stuff for good measure.
…doesn’t this look like a parent teacher conference?
Interview looks like it was taped on the set of All My Children. They tried to get Susan Lucci to play Palin, hoping no one would notice. Mmmmmm Lucci pizza…nlglglgllllgrhhhh
obfuscator:
Palin will announce that she’s resigning to spend more time with her shotguns.
That thing McCain does with his eyes 3:09-:15 is crazy. Out of curiosity, how many do-overs do these guys get? Do Hopey and Joe get a shot, too?
Man, I could go for a slice right now.
OT, but REALLY important:
In the ads on the left, why is Dar Williams offering me a handful of dog turd?
That’s not right.
Actually this is kind of a refreshing change from the current situation, where Cheney plays McCain and Bush plays Palin. Aside from that, it’s pretty much the same old crap from the past eight years.
AngryBlakGuy:
Mr. McCain, we’re worried that your daughter, Sarah, is becoming a little too close with her Hockey player boyfriend.
This reminds of me of Coming to America , “Bark like a dog” :
http://www.killerclips.com/clip.php?id=40&qid=200
Both of them are pathetic losers.
Obama can call me, I have a Bluetooth radio scanner he can use at the debates on Thursday.
I’ll bet you my stock portfolio (or$5.00, your choice) that when McGeezer
dumps her off the ticket he will say “It’s not you, it’s me”.
After all, that worked when he dumped his first wife to marry the slut
that he was already banging on the side. I think her name was Sin-dee
or something like that.
…life according to WALNUTS!:
“Gotcha Journalism” = Getting caught bull-shitting a constituent.
or
“Gotcha Journalism” = Holding me accountable for dumb stuff I say.
fuzznuts: Sin-dee, is she alive? I was wondering why McCain was toting around a LifeDoll.
obfuscator:
Snoop: “Yo, how my hair look, Mike?”
I love the part where WALNUTS!!!! blithers on so she can’t talk, and then says “I’ll let Sarah speak for herself.” If she can speak for herself, why the fuck are you even there, old man?
Why do they all blink so much?!
The only time McCain seemed to stop blinking was at the end when he was staring at Katie’s legs…
fuzznuts: No, it’s Philly Jiz Steak schmaltz.
Super mega WTF land right there. Can’t wait for this to be over… this is like watching a boxer get beaten and bloodied but not want to throw in the towel. At some point it just becomes unpleasant to watch.
One pizza, please, with WALNUTS!
(I know I made this same comment on a previous thread, but I thought it was funny. I crack myself up sometimes.)
obfuscator: I picture it more like this:

AngryBlakGuy: Just what I was thinking, a helicopter parent working the teacher after his pwecious darling flunked a test.
Seriously, what the fuck are these people doing?
AngryBlakGuy: We sir, are like two horses sharing a harness. But you are the funnier, angrier and blacker of the two horses.
I have a question…as McCain/Palin continues to shock and awe with their idiocy, do you think a “bandwagon” effect will start to kick in?
American is full of people who like to be associated with winners and I’m guessing that at a certain point, maybe Friday, the polls may start to really tick up for Obama. Mainly because some folks would rather be associated with the winning team, than the losing team…ideology be damned.
Go Team.
The whole thing was absolutely contrived - ya think? Only one question to answer, and still McNutty runs block and sets up Palin for her fairly comprehensible responsible - which is totally memorized. It’s a beautifully executed play, meant to dampen some of the sarcasm and boost her confidence when the press says she’s doing better - because otherwise she is still toast. Or as my father says, “Shit on a shingle.”
WALNUTS should try that old ventriloquist trick where he drinks a glass of water while the puppet sings the alphabet.
Let me make sure I understand: Any person, be it Katie Couric or the dude with the cheese steak in his hand, asking Sarah Palin or John McCain any question about any issue is now practicing Gotcha! Journalism AND this is what “it’s” all about? Huh. I’m really glad to have this cleared up because as a teacher, I want to make sure to get that right when I’m teaching my students about American history. I’ll just let them know we can close our books and bow our heads in prayer to John and Sarah. Because it’s all about Gotcha Journalism.
McCain/Palin: Massive fail.
http://www.entertonement.com/collections/4359/McCain-And-Palin-Answer-Questions-Together
I was kinda hoping it was McCain, but it weren’t:
72-year-old wounded by lead ball during Civil War reenactment (yahoo)
Gotcha Journalism: 30 minutes or your pizza is free
It’s all good. After he dies in office of old age, Palin will be able to channel McGrommits from the netherworld. The economy will be saved.
I would invite all Palin fans to freezeframe her in the early moments when she looks as if she is about to urinate in panic. Failure on an epic level.
Obviously this show of INDEPENDENCE means nothing to you libruls. You can’t even recognize that Moosilini is allowed out of the house right now. THIS IS PROGRESS.
Mr. Buffalo Chip can’t take his finger off his wedding ring, or his eyes off Sarah’s tits, which surprises me a bit, because Katie Couric’s got herself a fine pair of legs. Me, my head’d be totally spinning in that room.
But on a serious note: He couldn’t look Obama in the eye, either. I know that in Thailand direct eye contact is considered impolite. Is that the same in other Southeast Asian countries, like for instance North VietNam? Was he beaten for looking at his captors directly? Is that a fear he still lives with?
hockeymom: good point
PIZZA!
McCain is senile, shouldn’t this be scrutinized?
I couldn’t finish watching. Whenever I see a clip like this, I mentally rocket ahead to November 5, where the headlines read, “MCCAIN WINS!” in 200-point type. So, I’m harboring future pissed-offedness for the American electorate. Because I see clips like this and I know how it’s all gonna end. It’s like watching a car crash in slow motion, where you can see into the windows of the doomed minivan and there’s a kid watching a little video screen and on that video screen is our dumb president giving the kid a “thumbs up.” (The president’s other arm is around John McCain, and Palin’s head is bobbing in his lap.)
How dare they offend pizza like that?
This is borderline unfunny.
The way he’s swooped in to get control over the situation looks to be the way McGrommits plans to run government. All by hisself.
He’ll make Jimmy Carter look like the inventor of task delegation.
I’m waiting until someone holds out their fist with their thumb stuck between
their fingers at some event and says “I gotcha nose”. I’m sure that Sarah will
jump up and down and scream until Grumpy Gramps pats her on the head
and tells her “Now now, everything’s going to be o.k.”.
And, I can almost smell the farts when someone else says “pull my finger”
to her, and McGeezer isn’t there to warn her not to fall for the Gotcha.
Daddy Walnuts! needs to be alerted to the fact that when he repeats the word “exciting” when he describes Palin’s “effect” on his “campaign” all people start to think about is a four hour long Viagra boner on a geriatric Republican named McCain. That creepy smile of his is not helping either.
See? Sister Sarah didn’t say that thing she said or meant something else and Senator McCain said she pizzaed and he understands gotcha journalism and she says thats all right too and … ARRRGHHHH We’re all gonna die!!
So if they’re a sort of Charlie McCarthy and Edgar Bergen, does that mean Meghan is Candice Bergen?
‘Cuz I knew Candice Bergen, and Meghan’s no Candice Bergen.
Palin is so ready to lead she has to hide behind John McCain’s skirt during interviews. Truly inspiring. Where are inept piano deliverymen with cranes when you need them?
http://thesebastards.blogspot.com/
Man, when is the McCain campaign going to realize that Katie Couric is a succubus that’s going to drain their campaign of all life-fluid? Palin can’t stand well on her own, then Couric is revealed as the siren that lured Walnuts! away from Letterman, and finally this…
… I mean, but why isn’t “Fuck No!” being screamed when “COURIC, KATIE” appears on the goddamn Caller ID?”
***clapping hands***
am i a bad evil person because i’m excited that there will be more of this train wreck to watch tonight? i’m thinking no!
***clapping hands***
Katie Couric, why so mean!?!
Millions of human beings are more than happy to vote for this duo. That is scary. Palin is like the anti-Chaney or Bizarro World Cheney. I don’t think our Solar System is ready for a hockey mom in the White House. Couric…seemed…well…like the rest of us….” What are they saying?” I’m thinking it would be really nice if Couric hosted SNL and well…
I’m envisioning Couric hosting SNL.
The big money in Vegas now is on which leg the pee will
run down when our Joey roasts her alive on Thursday.
I’m betting with the right one, figuring on the effect of
the direction the world is turning since we’re above the
equator (until China forecloses on us and makes us live
under some freeway somewhere.
I’m hoping that while WALNUTS! and Bible Spice are determined to dig this hole deeper and deeper, they’re at least keeping an eye out for oil while they’re down there.
Oh yeah, I forgot:
MY DAD COULD BEAT UP YOUR JAMMAKAIN! NYAH!
uh bomb bomb bomb, bomb bomb Iran?
Delicious: “You look good, Moose… ” CAP CAP!
did McCain have a stroke at 3:15 in that video?
Ok. The blinking must be some kind of McCain camp morse code. But since this woman can barely speak English (her ONLY language), I don’t think she understands what he’s saying. He could start a nuclear war with the eye brow movement.
So basically the question is: If she can’t conduct an interview with McCain, how can she run the country without him?
Also, he looks really angry at BOTH Palin and Katie. I’ll bet he tried to give them both a spanking when the interview was over and then sent Sarah to her room without her vodka (which she got from the Russians she’s been doing the foreign policy with.)
My favorite part is at the very last moment of the clip when he looks straight into the camera with a pained, fake grin.
Whenever the McCooter camp has to do Palin damage control, I always laugh to myself at the would-be news media and American reaction to Obama being forced to do mediate between the rest of the world and his running mate….
“Well, wait just a second, before you go asking Senator Biden questions like “does he regret saying it, let me just say…” and “I will now let Joe speak for himself…” Ha-ha.
