Here’s some funny-in-retrospect advice to Hillary Clinton from Sarah Palin! She was at some conference thing in March 2008, five months away from McCain’s doomed decision to make her his running mate, when Karen Breslau of Newsweek asked her about Hillary getting beat up in the primary battle against Obama.
With the wisdom and experience of a single year as Alaska’s governor and no national profile at all, Sarah Palin tells Hillary Clinton to quit whining about the media, because “you’ve gotta plow through that,” etc., you betcha. [YouTube, via tipster "Michael M."]

G O T C H A !!
She should blow me.
Newsweek unfairly edited this clip. They chopped off the end of her statement, which was: “…but I’m a duplicitous harpy, so what the fuck do I know?”
I,for one, am proud of Wonkettes everywhere who helped to drive this phoney nutcase even more insane. Bible Spice, the grifter, can bite me!
So whatever they’re cutting the meth with now in Alaska causes not just general dain bramage, but Alzheimer’s as well.
i hope that some consumer advocacy group pushes the administration to crack down on the manufacturers of these “sharp microscopes”. they sound dangerous.
“So Sambo beat the bitch!”
“This is how Republican Vice Presidential nominee Sarah Palin described Barack Obama’s win over Hillary Clinton to political colleagues in a restaurant a few days after Obama locked up the Democratic Party presidential nomination.”
“With all due respect…That doesn’t do us any good, women in politics.” Either. Also.
And even moreso, with any kind of perceived whine. (I’ll have the Blue Nun. Failing that, I’ll perceive the Blue Nun. With all due respect, golly hey you betcha.)
Going to Governor WhackADoodle for political advice is like going to George Armstrong Custer for his opinions on how to conduct a calvary sweep of an Indian encampment.
Or maybe Adolf Hitler or Napoleon on how to mount a winter offensive in Russia.
Or George Herbert Walker Bush on first-grade reading skills.
No great surprise that there is footage of Suesie Sue saying something that has come back to bite her in her taut, high, runner’s booty. Sadly, this shows the pre-VP contender, before everything she said was spoon-fed to her by speechwriters, with all of those precious dropped “g’s” falling on her bib, and all. We are now witnessing her descent into complete Brittney Spears madness, replete with a self-loathing media back-and-forth relationship, rambling diatribes, etc.
If she shaves her head, it’ll be like X-mas in July.
[re=355210]memzilla[/re]: Manitol.
John McCain should have to answer for this. It’s always been obvious how dangerous this woman was. From the republican convention , throughout the whole campaign, she incited hatred and he stood by, smiling.
I watched this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PPOa2AhsbA8 and that’s when i became afraid. really
She didn’t really mean that. It was just a basketball analogy. Also.
I would like to see that clip about how she never ever ever blinks. I’m trying to figure out if she blinked in stepping down.
Based on the video above, it seems that never blinking has an adverse effect on your thought patterns. Or you’re a fucking idiot.
Fair or unfair, it is there. Yeah!
Here’s to sharper microscopes and thinking realities are a given.
[re=355220]the lady MS. Sheila Dixon[/re]: It’s worrying to think if she would be stepping down if she were VP right now. Of course the highly experienced Cheney would be happy to step in.
[re=355216]Neilist[/re]: Or George Herbert Walker Bush on first-grade reading skills.
No Herbert, just Walker. Poppy is the one who can read on grade level.
[re=355223]Bruno[/re]: Steve Forbes never blinks. ’nuff said.
Happy “In da Palin’s Day Weekend” Ken, you prolifically-posting, pissed-off patriot, you!
omg to think that Our Sarah, the People’s Governor, was still alive when she made that comment, and now she’s dead or whatever. There should be a Sarah’s Law to ban people from being mean to Sarah’s memory and mouth-raping her kids and such as.
(I miss AOL comments on a Sunday.)
With all due respect, fair or unfair, I can’t think of a better way to progress this nation than for Palin to cease her perceived whine.
Hats off to Wonkette, you should (self-)proclaim this site THE #1 Sarah Palin-bashing website on the Internet, to get the Wingnut-in-Chief and her minions whining on the radio about you. Until Sarah hires spies to find out and publish your addresses so people kill you, it’s a great way for extra publicity.
She constantly uses the word “progress” in an arcane manner, more as a verb than a noun. I guess
it could be syntaxually correct but I know it drives me to the point of wanting to punch myself
in the face, which I’m sure is one of her peripheral goals.
The amazing thing is that so many people, including wonkette, used their johnsons as their compass. she’s hawt! GILF! This qualified her for national office. That is the definition of sexism. Oh well. Guess you horn dogs will think with your eared head next time.
probably not.
This was BEFORE she realized she could effect change outside normal channels.
Obviously what Palin was saying was that Hillary should have showed some guts and fortitude to stand up to all those attacks by quitting.
[re=355238]OReillysVibrator[/re]: We’re not only war-bloggers;, we’re also LEFTIST HATERS who worship OBAMA!
Yeah maybe Wonketteers are bashing Palin, but cheezus . . . let’s remember the non-stop hate-rant she inflicts on libs and progressives every fuckin’ day of her life. Our hatred of her is well founded IMHO.
Wow. To Snowbilly’s credit she sounds almost informed, reasonable, and–dare I say it?–intelligent. Maybe the pressure of the national spotlight really did send her over the edge into insanity.
If she even dares to run for office, put this clip on loop until election day. Suck it up, Hillary.
[re=355247]imissopus[/re]: you were just looking up her skirt.
[re=355251]the lady MS. Sheila Dixon[/re]: Ewwwwwwwwwwwwwww.
T.R. Ucknuttz will not be pleased when he sees this…
I was frankly stunned this weekend to hear my wingnut inlaws defending this idiot. They see her as really intelligent and up against the vast socialist conspiracy. All of these are college educated people, by the way who are convinced the US is now a socialist communist dictatorship, worse than Russia.
And of course when you ask them “where did you hear this”, it’s always – 100% of the time – Fox News, which they insist I ought to listen to because it the only fair media outlet and tells both sides of the story.
I swear Fox News is sending some kind of mind control signal to these people…

Sounds like they understand words, but the cognitive skills are lacking. Are they bidniz majors or enjinears per chance?
Hillz didn’t have a Trig to add to the mess, oh wait…
My gawd! Is anyone else as sick of palin as I am?? This weekend while reading the moronic whimper-fest that IS sarah (no-ethics) palin, I began to long for the musings of Michael Jackson’s father, joe.
If there was ever a quasi-human deserving of our national disdain, our combined disrespect, it’s the original Wassila Hillbilly, Gov. Caribou Barbie!
Please, let’s all hope/pray her 15 1/2 minutes have now run their course. I don’t think my gag reflex can stand anymore of her fake outrage, her whimpering at the MSM, and the trolls she and todd call their children……….
One more news story, and I think I’ll next be barfing up my right lung!
[re=355243]chascates[/re]:…waaaaaaaaaaaaaaay outside “normal” channels…
Dear Sir or Madam,
We note that you have referred to Governor Palin in a manner that is less than respectful. According to a rule that Governor Palin carved into the antler of a moose that she killed while she was out running, you are in violation of the Shebilly Who Must be Obeyed law and could be sued for amounts equal to whatever it takes to keep her in makeup.
Please retract this less than respectful post immediately or send a check for $10,000 to:

In this vein, teh New York Post, that bastion of East Coast liberalism, ran today an unintentionally hilarious editorial written by one “Bill Quick” – whose name and writing style remind me of Ed Anger from the Weekly World News.
“RUN, SARAH, RUN”, the editorial says. And his last bit of political advice encourages her to run on the fact that she has boobies:
If Palin does this successfully, she can turn the election of 2010 into a referendum on the failed policies and agendas of President Obama and the Democrats — while building a war chest for her own political future. If she helps to greatly reduce or eliminate the Democrat majorities in Congress, she will have set herself up as the only politician to defeat Obama and his surrogates.
Here’s an interesting possible side effect: If Palin is successful, look for Clinton to resign in preparation for her own presidental bid as “the only Democrat who has a chance to beat Governor Palin.”
This doesn’t have to be the end. It could be a forceful beginning.
Yeah. And as usual, the comments are insane gold.
I told you what appeals to me about Palin, and again I will say that cutting taxes would stimulate the economy, Palin, less spend small government, Palin, less spend and less debt for are kids, Palin, second Amendment rights, Palin. Obama has NO executive experience NOW are before he entered office all he did was run a campaign, HIS WORDS. That stupid President kept your @ss safe for seven and a half years so you should thank him for that. More than Clinton did. He’s grades were better than Kerry is Kerry stupid.? Alaska’s population is 683,478..That would be six times the number you give Obama’s district. Please before you open you mouth you should check FACTS because I will!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Will Shorts or someone who speaks fluent retard please translate that for us?
I don’t know how Wonkette managed to get 180,000+ page views on its previous Palin story because that’s a bit above its normal pageview average but . . . good job, you drunken bums.
As my 92-year-old Daddy observed: “That woman’s as crazy as a rat in a tin can…”
You know, looking back on Palin’s history, it might be easier to find things that she HASN’T quit. How many colleges did she run through? Was it four or five of them? Wasn’t she on some appointed panel in Alaska that she left early?

[Gosh, looking at that video taken on March 8, 2008 (wasn't it?) you really have to give the lady credit for being able to lean so far forward, elbow resting on knee, all the while being (supposedly) 7 months pregnant. Just wow.]
The funniest thing I’ve heard all day, apologies if you’ve seen it: Palin is resigning so she can devote herself to training for the next grueling Iquitarod.
I hate her I hate her. She quit? I hate her more, I hate her even more.
On this last day of Anthrocon 2009, why can’t we just look through their flickr pictures and rejoice that we are living in the only country in history that could bomb a desert in central asia for years while holding the worlds largest fursuit parade. The Roo-Shans could barely bomb a desert in central asia and cloth themselves in normal clothes.
This is what America is all about (in addition to incinerating Iraq):

Furries I owe you, and unlike California, I’ll tell you upfront my IOUs are worth zip.
Terry: She went to five colleges (which may or may not count the fact she went to one of them twice). During her last term as mayor of Wasilla she stepped down early in order to run for lieutenant governor (but lost). Yes she was on the oil & gas commission which she left before her term ended in order to run for governor. Now she has left the governorship after serving a little more than half the term. She has set the cause of women in politics back 100 years: women are not smart enough to run any aspect of government? Check. Women are too emotionally erratic to cope with public life? Check. How are repugnicans going to promote Palin as tough enough to stand up to the Russians and the North Koreans when she can’t stand up to Andrew Sullivan?
The people are hungry! let dem eat word salad! also
Celebrity deaths come in threes. She thought if she didn’t quit, she’d be next after the pedophile and the pin up
Ya know, it is just this kind of elite media anti-troop thinking that will never progress our country and that’s why Trigger’s blessed mom is not going to put the great State of Alaska through the expense and trouble of ….. what the foxtrot was I saying?

The curious case of Palin D’mentia.
[re=355288]HedonismBot[/re]: Hmm. Celebrity politician. Weren’t some lady governor and some senile senator from Arizona attacking Obama a while back for being a “celebrity politician?”
Nah. That never happened.
i think Sarah went from flat to fabulous with Bumpits!!!!
http://www.bighappiehair.com/
And Sarah knows about plowing! Those Alaskans have to turn over frozen tundra with nothing to pull the plows except small children and sled dogs. (Shame on you if you thought this comment was heading into the gutter.)
I, for one, welcome our new snowbilly overlords.
[re=355272]Autochthon[/re]: My daddy often used the phrase “Dumb as a chunk” when referring to my sister. I never quite got it until I saw Sarah’s moose in headlights look when asked about the Bush doctrine.
I wish the lighting was a bit better, because when she does the hand jive I get to doin’ the pants jive, if you’re pickin’ up what I’m throwin’ down. Hot.
The untold story about why Snowbilly is stepping down:
She was sneaking off to the frozen north to meet with her soulmate, Bullwinkle J. Moose. And as we all know, once you’ve had moose, you’re really really loose.
She has set the cause of women in politics back 100 years: women are not smart enough to run any aspect of government? Check. Women are too emotionally erratic to cope with public life? Check.
Stop. Please. If the ‘pubs hold up their former V.P. candidate and Starburst factory as proof that lady parts make one unfit to hold office, I’ll have to start going to church again.
[re=355242]the lady MS. Sheila Dixon[/re]: To be fair, madam, I had never before been salaciously winked and wiggled at by a politician. Wasn’t sure what protocol was for that circumstance. Like the first time you go to a strip club and get so drunk you don’t realize you can’t touch the girls.
[re=355209]paintitblack[/re]: Something Awful has already taken credit for forcing Palin’s resignation AND apologized for it. Wonkette even gets a plug or two in return for having recognized the den of depravity/evil that is Something Awful.
Truth be told, I’m pretty sure that I would have resigned too if they had subjected my offspring to similar photoshop treatment.
[re=355297]Weeping Jesus[/re]: Yeah, I couldn’t see her trashy tattooed lip-liner. However , she wore the appropriate fuck-me-boots as well which proves she’s a leader of energy independence.
David Lettermen should rescind his apology!!!
Nahhh- I take it back- you really are a crazy bitch & I can make fun of your family,
If she does not like it– Well– she can just QUIT!

I has a sad.
I for one, will miss Miss Sarah.
Ever since she was thrust into the public consciousness, she has been a constant source of entertainment and unintentional hilarity.
Most of all, Sarah Palin is the face of the Republican party. And because they chose her, they have demonstrated themselves to be a lost, desperate and disillusioned group who are stuck in the 20 century of business as usual politics.
Sarah, we hardly knew ye. But you sure made me laugh.
Guessing games start when the truth ain’t told. Maybe the gov is resigning ’cause the oldest minor daughter caught the 6 to 7 month mono (Kinda’ like big Sis Bristol). But, that’s just one of the rumors going around.
[re=355306]rambone[/re]: Haha, so Palin frequents Something Awful? Really? Her response should have been, ‘well, it’s close to Independence Day, OMG WTF BBQ’. Instead she had a press conference in her backyard.
Quitter quitter quitter quitter. I bet if she was president we would be out of Iraq and Afghanistan. Quitter quitter quitter quitter. Sarah Palin is a quitter. Not like our hero POTUS Obama, who’s not a quitter quitter quitter.
Hey. Since she’s looking for people to sue, do you think she’ll find out about us and these comments? Don’t take any chances. Have Riley eat all the evidence.
[re=355269]President Beeblebrox[/re]: Wow, Trig learned how to read and write very quickly!
[re=355269]President Beeblebrox[/re]: The person is quite happy with conducting a search for ‘Alaskan Population’, getting a result, using Calculator, and then attempting to base a response on facts that were found during the scientific process. It’s his/her first foray into the realm known as Basic Math and Internet Stuff Not Otherwise Specified (NOS). We should applaud him/her, as God will punish them in the afterlife.
Is it just me, or does it seem like Sarah Palin started doing a vocal caricature of herself after she got the VP nomination? While it certainly could get old fast, the voice I hear coming from Palin’s mouth in this pre-nomination clip doesn’t make me want to stick my head into a wood chipper.

Progress should not really be a verb in this usage. I think she made some sort of error on this awhile ago, and her staff (and now more republicans) have just gone with her on it. It’s so hard to see real professionals in the media have to stoop to the level of adopting this dumbass vocabulary and choke out the word ‘progress’ as a verb this month.

I have always been of the opinion that those who hate government should never be put in charge of it. The Bush Administration was a classic example of what happens when you break that rule.
Sarah Palin, along with Sanford and the rest, seem to be a corollary: Those who hate government don’t really like to lead. They like to run for things, or have jobs (like in Congress), where they can say anything they want, but put them in a position of repsonsibility, and they hate it. Instead they start going off to Argentina in search of women, or quit the Alaskan Governorship to walk the greater 48 with the one thing they love, themselves. If you expect them to actually govern, you picked the wrong person. They are their to tell you that abortion is wrong, the Mexicans are coming, Government helping poor people, or any person other than one on Wall St. is Socialism, and that getting a hummer from a fat adult intern in an impeachable offense (flying to a foreign country on the tax payers’ dime for a hummer, that is just part of God’s plan).
Think about it, it explains why George Bush chose to be the governor in the state with one of the weakest governorships in the country. And it explains Karl Rove’s and his style of leadership (if we are free to call it that).
Bruce Reed over at Slate has a nice little piece on the current fall of the Republican movement that cover this well: http://www.slate.com/id/2222230/ . Thank God no one in the current Republican party actually reads anything other than the Corner. It should be fun watching this play out over the next decade of the Limbaugh wars.
[re=355319]Joshua Norton[/re]: Riley doesn’t have to eat the evidence that we are lawsuit-worthy. He can just hide it under his hat.
This was the early Sarah Palin giving credit to Hillary Clinton for her experience. Now Sarah has all the experience she needs to drive her own movement, right off a cliff.
“I’d plow that.”
Notice how in this video she is not at the end of a screaming three day crank run, where she stayed up all night to write the word snarl, then did a massive meth rail right before convulsivly gasping out her chaotic mouth scribbles in short blasts of energized bunny paced yelps. The panicky breaths between the wild-eyed sentence fragments are textbook meth behaviors to a ‘T’. Or a ‘quarter T’ to yall east coast folks.
O.K., the Snowbilly breakdown is highly amusing, but I was getting a bit bored, on account of all you folks tend to “sleep” at “night” so I went looking down through the articles to find another snarktarget, and…
9 out of the last bloody 10 posts are Sarah Palin’s resignation. The sole exception was Barry O’s 4th of July, and unless you’ve got some Foo Fighters/Presidential blingie, that ain’t much.
Happy Jan Hus day, everybody!

Don’t forget, Ennealogic, that she was in addition to ALLEGEDLY being 7 months pregnant, she was also wearing black pantihose, and she was crossing her legs while leaning forward.
I challenge anyone else to do that!
(P.S. Patrick, it was indeed March 3, 2008 — 7 weeks before she “delivered”)
Patrick, I was about to ask the same question. This is one of the, may I say, Iconic photos of a 7month pregnant woman crossing her legs and bending way over. NO ordinary woman could do that, no siree, but Palin is not an ordinary woman, as we all know.
[re=355362]Lionel Hutz Esq.[/re]: Lionel, that’s why the entire GOP “takeover” of Congress under Newt Gingrich back in 94 was such a FAIL. It is so much easier to throw rocks than to build something. If the only answer to the poor, uninsured and downtrodden is “no” while the only answer to the rich white guy is “yes” eventually you will be kicked out of office (even rich white guys worry about class warfare). The R’s have not had a fresh idea in 50 years (R Raygun was just repackaged Commie hatin’). All they can do, as the seemingly permanent minority, is tear down. When asked about their health care/bank rescue/economic recovery plans, they can only quote that old Eight Ball “Ask again later”. Nancy Pelosi, Rham Emmanuel, Henry Waxman, Barney Frank may not be everyone’s cup of tea, but they are survivors, not quitters. They know what they believe in, are willing to compromise (sometimes) to get “half a loaf” and call it victory. Staying in the game is 90 percent. Palin, Sanford, et al are losers because they are quitters/liars.
