NRO Editor Can’t Get Himself To Mention Sarah Palin’s Tabloid Scandals

If only David Letterman showed such gentlemanly restraint!
John Ensign, yep, he’s got the scandals. Oh and this Mark Sanford, yes, he is flying back and forth to Argentina to have sexytime with Ms. Not His Wife. Hmm, what other GOP 2012 name is plagued by “tabloid scandals” — the one who steals Neiman Marcus clothes and made a Sex Den for her teen-aged daughter and spends all her time yelling at a late-night talk show host? EXTRA HINT TO RICH “STARBURST” LOWRY: You cum in your slacks when you see her on the teevee. [The Corner]

    Meanwhile, it’s Barack Obama 2, the late Francisco Franco 0

    Peggy Noonan kissed some Sanford butt recently on “Morning Joe!”

    The last shout out from Joe Scarborough was “We all love you, Mark!”

    So sad… another day… another Talibangelical Hypocrisy scandal hits Republicans between the eyes.

    So batshit crazy religon and child marrying to grown ass men, they don’t count?

    You’re talking about this one, right? http://tvjunior.files.wordpress.com/2008/05/little_britain_bubbles2.jpg

    NSFW!

    If Romney runs in 2012 I can only hope that hoary snapping turtle John McCain tries again (he’ll be like 500 years old but who cares). I would love to see McCain beat up Mittens with his mean and scurrilous debating tactics again. Too much fun.

  6. bfstevie says at 4:44 pm, June 24th, 2009

    Let’s hope Michael Steele doesn’t find out about saltpeter.

    rambone: GODDAMN YOU MAN!

    I thought that thing died in his spaghetti by hte hands of KPAX?

  8. Autochthon says at 4:44 pm, June 24th, 2009

    “Romney by Elimination,” indeed, if you use the standard Merriam-Webster definition of “elimination”:

    “the act of discharging or excreting waste products from the body”

    Meaning the Body Politic here, I’d presume…

  9. S.Luggo says at 4:44 pm, June 24th, 2009

    Sanford follow-up statement released: http://www.midlandsconnect.com/news/news_story.aspx?id=317012
    Mark hopes to “rebuild the people’s trust”. The people of Argentina thank him.

  10. facehead says at 4:45 pm, June 24th, 2009

    Other phrases left out: “country blumpkin,” “mormon tabernacle choir boy scandal,” “fudge gloves.”

  11. No love for the L’il Exorcist?

  14. Blender says at 4:47 pm, June 24th, 2009

    Gingrich HAS to run now.

  15. finallyhappy says at 4:47 pm, June 24th, 2009

    rambone: Thank goodness I am not at work today. Seeing that photo could get me in trouble- as it is, I think my eyes are burning.

  16. Romney would wipe the floor with Palin, intellectually, but no one ever won the Republican primary by relying on intellect.

  17. finallyhappy says at 4:50 pm, June 24th, 2009

    S.Luggo: What a schmuck! He is definitely my choice for 2012 GOP nominee

  18. jagorev says at 4:51 pm, June 24th, 2009

    Two posts in a row that mention Republicans cumming. Seriously, guys?

  19. Tommmcatt says at 4:52 pm, June 24th, 2009

    I have but one thing to say about a Sarah Palin presidential bid:

    Please, Jeebus. Please.

  20. Autochthon says at 4:53 pm, June 24th, 2009

    cal: lol Actually, the “Littlest Exorcist” is pretty good!

    Pity he looks’n’sounds like a Hindu Barney Fife, though…

  21. IceCreamEmpress says at 4:55 pm, June 24th, 2009

    Actually, Mittens’s documented dog abuse didn’t do him any favors last time.

  22. Hooray For Anything says at 5:01 pm, June 24th, 2009

    I wouldn’t be so sure about Mittens– he’s so desperate to show his conservative bona fides that he’d probably have a press conference to lie about having an affair.

  23. Extemporanus says at 5:02 pm, June 24th, 2009

    Is it considered cheating on your wife if the woman you cheat on your wife with is your other wife?

    If not, then Romney has this thing in the bag.

  24. bfstevie: Repubs don’t need SaltPeter, they have McCain’s speeches to ’soften the wood’

  25. Texan Bulldoggette says at 5:05 pm, June 24th, 2009

    SayItWithWookies: If Walnuts is too old to run, his ma can do it. She’ll only be like 200 but she’s in better shape than Johnny Boy. And she despises the Mormons for ruining the Olympics, so that would be a spectacle I’d pay good money to see.

  26. lawrenceofthedesert says at 5:09 pm, June 24th, 2009

    Min: What a lovely image of Mitthead doing a mop job with the Whiter Shade of Palin!

    And all this “who will be the candidate?” is so very much easier than doing actual journalism, which involves talking to people, attending events and discovering facts. As the journalism Hindenberg explodes and deflates to the ground, it’s sad to see so many passengers just going through the motions. Some dailies are beginning to read like “Press Release Digest.”

  27. Dog Trombone says at 5:12 pm, June 24th, 2009

    May I just say, in the best Oklahoma tradition, that it’s days like today that I fall to my knees and PRAISE JESUS for Wonkette.

  28. WadISay says at 5:12 pm, June 24th, 2009

    Mitt’s certainly orange enough, Newt not so much.

  29. Johnny Zhivago says at 5:15 pm, June 24th, 2009

    What is so amazing stupid about Sanford is that if he had an AT&T or T-Mobile GSM phone he could have stayed in contact in Argentina and even say he was on the Appalachian trail some where. Once again, America’s lousy cell phone network is to blame.

    What a shmuck!

  30. Liz_Bectons_Mole says at 5:21 pm, June 24th, 2009

    “The Scandals:” when will the WHO declare it a pandemic?

  32. Big Liver says at 5:23 pm, June 24th, 2009

    Don’t ever lose track of that ‘Starburst’ quote. Please.

  33. Carson says at 5:29 pm, June 24th, 2009

    Romney has other women, too.
    He’s just married to all of them.
    Crafty Mittens.

    “Slacks” are the new ass-less chaps.

  36. rambone: Friend, that’s not safe for anywhere.

  37. The Unfairman says at 6:14 pm, June 24th, 2009

    Here is a funny, for Sanford’s wife’s statement as reported by CNN:

    “As well, for the last fifteen years my husband has been fully engaged in public service to the citizens and taxpayers of this state…”

    Except for, y’know, a week here and there.

    Also, good grammar, lady!

  38. WickedWitch says at 9:59 pm, June 24th, 2009

    Extemporanus: I don’t think America wants to have anything to do with whatever is in Mitts’ bag. Know whu I mean, Vern?

  39. Lionel Hutz Esq. says at 1:47 am, June 25th, 2009

    Sadly, Rich Lowery has forgotten that most Republicans consider Mittens a member of a radical, anti-Christian cult just this edge of Hell from the Muslims.

  40. Lionel Hutz Esq.: Exactly. Perhaps they can spread a rumor that Mittens is really a crypto-Christian.

  41. rambone: NOT SAFE FOR EYES!

  42. garimpeiro says at 10:19 am, June 25th, 2009

    The Republicans should castrate Mitt Romney before he does something stupid.
