Sarah Palin Mystery Tour Game Begins

Or, even better, the media can just ignore her completely and she can go scurrying back to the obscurity of backwoods Alaska where she belongs.

I'm looking forward to her being OTR….Off The Radar.

Keep on driving, Sarah. Right off the edge of a cliff.

Remember how much she liked it when the college kids from California went dumpster diving to dig up the details of her speaking fees? LOVED IT! So come on lamestreamers, the trash is waiting!

Let's see if this Ailes ploy moves her unfavorable poll numbers. She's lost, quit, wrote a crappy book, toured , tweeted like the village idiot, wrote another crappy book, given nonsensical speeches, and you know what, her numbers only worsened.
The people who despise her, or are indifferent to her, are pretty unlikely to change.
But, she's worth one more grifting episode.
I highly recommend this Rolling Stone piece.

Thinking, writing, snarking about Sarah Palin™ is exhausting.

She's embarked on a kind of American history tour. Telling people to celebrate our heritage. But her focus is in the 19th and 18th century. I'll bet she never sets foot in the 20th much less the 21st centuries, except the obligatory 9/11 homage.

She's stroking the Tea Party crowd who loooove the olde days. Before the 16th Amendment (income taxes), 17th Amendment (direct election of senators); before Social Security, Medicare, OSHA, EPA, Education Department, Civil Rights, foreign aid … the list goes on.

Listen up TP'ers. The 19th century wasn't that great. Don't forget the slavery, the infant mortality, male-only voting, the Panic of 1837, the Panic of 1873, the Panic of 1893.

At least by not informing the media where she is going, she can avoid those embarrassing situations like leaving your supporters and other gawkers hanging when you say that you're going to Gettysburg and then don't bother to show up.

"(I)t’s not about me, it’s not a publicity-seeking tour…" – Sarah Palin

If a drunkard hobbled up to me on the street and asked for change, saying, "It's not for (burp) booze," I'd give him my whole f***ing bankroll.

I have a feeling many journalists are secretly very relieved…"But boss, how can I cover SP if we don't even know where she is?" And Saruh, do you really think this is how your corporate overlords court the press? Do you think they do all that wining and dining out of the goodness of their hearts?

Goodness me. And here I thought a professional person in public life would thoughtfully provide an itinerary and agenda for her tour. It would include organized and carefully arranged press conferences and presentations along the way to present her credentials and give the American people the best and most thorough look at her policies and proposals possible.

This imaginary person would of course look forward to presenting her case to the widest possible audience, confident that success would only be more likely, the more people were exposed to the wisdom of her views (however misplaced that confidence might be).

Care would be taken to plan ahead so as to cause the least disruption and expense to individuals, municipalities, and law enforcement agencies along the way.

Oh wait, who are we talking about? Well, then BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH.

That brainless fucking attention whore cunt. Never mind.

What I want to know is why the media are falling for her description of their job (hunt the attention whore), and doing her bidding at every step.

Their actual job is to find out what she is distracting them from asking about. Content of the three books exposing her horseshit activities (2 out, 1 to come)? Dairygate? Even the FBI is apparently fiinally investigating that one. A big box full of other ethically/legally shaky activities? Asking why SarahPAC is paying for a "family vacation"?

Investigative fucking journalism, anyone?

I want teachers to have to do a little bit of work on a sentence like this and that would include not necessarily telling them beforehand where every noun and verb is going to be, you know, if they — we’ll say a thing, we’ll do a lot of ITPs, insane talking points, we’ll mangle a lot of great English words and then I’ll blurviate about that at the end of the clause and it’s not about syntax, it’s not a meaning-seeking utterance, it’s about highlighting the random things about my mental functions and the linguists can figure out where the nouns and verbs and adjecverbs and projunctions are going if they do their investigative work or they’re going to keep, kind of as you put it, going crazy trying to figure out what we’re doing here.

Hmm. Highlighting the great historic sites along the bus trail by not mentioning them so the press can't be there to provide background on them. Right. That's SarahThink all right. Who does she think she's kidding?

So on the one hand to educate the nation we have the POTUS, Harvard Law graduate, constitutional law professor, political science (major? minor?), US Senator, state legislator, etc., etc.

And on the other hand we have Palin the quitter 1/2 term governor of a tiny state with…brochures?

I think she is the only "person" in the world that I've actually ever hated. Fuck off you miserable cunt…

This is probably too late to the party, but I think of these things when I wake up too early…

She might be able to dodge the press, but I would guess that many of her followers (Henceforth known as Flying Monkeys) can operate at least simple video cameras and such. Plus, they know how to upload stuff to YouTube. Some moron will hear her say some moronic thing and claim it to be genius.

You can run, Sarah…but you can't hide.

Palin is a moron, an idiot, a poseur, and she is ignorant. She is unqualified to hold any political office, at any level. She is completely uneducated, inexperienced and lacking in intelligent and intellectual knowledge about government and politics, law, civis, community affairs, defense, justice, the economy, finance, banking, trade, commerce, labor, the environment, energy, public safety, homeland security, the military, science, and most other issues. She is unqualified to be a mayor, a governor, a vice president or a president–because she is ignorant.
