    Episode #71: Come join Thomas Keister and ppdingles tonight, as they'll be discussing the latest on the 2008 Presidential election, including John McCain already working on his concession?, Sarah Palin swinging and missing on strike 4, voter fraud, some mind boggling Stupid Britain, prison breaks, prostitution, and equal rights for plants? Yeah, gonna be one of those shows...

  • Date / Time:

    Palin's reflection of herself? Yeah, don't stare too long...

    Kathleen Parker wrote in her syndicated column yesterday wondering how the mainstream media can improve their image. Other than actually acting like most journalists used to, I can't think of a more solid, or to the point answer.

    Worrying about Barack Obama's so-called connection with former 60's radical William Ayers, but nary touching a stone about the governor of Alaska not only addressing the convention of a secessionist group (of which her husband was, and may yet still be a member of) and letting the group know to "keep up the good work" could be a good starting point. That the sitting governor of a state apparently agrees with the stances of a group that wants the very state he or she runs should be more of a focus than that of a charity board, on whom both Democrats and Republicans have served in the past.

    Wringing hands over Barack Obama's attendance of a church whose pastor has occasionally made what could be considered inflammatory remarks in the past should pale slightly in comparison with Palin's one-time (or current, I keep losing the scorecard) pastor, who flat honestly believes in witchcraft, or John McCain's past endorsements from some the most half-baked elements of intolerance disguised as representatives of Christianity. If anything, credit could be extended to Palin for somehow making the case that we might be able to accept a Wiccan or Pagan practitioner in the White House. After all, witchcraft is as witchcraft does, I suppose.

    The concept that Sarah Palin knows very little about important policy areas such as foreign policy may be brushed off, in comparison with presidents and vice-presidents past, although to the best of my knowledge, none of the previous ever used "well, I have heard of them before" as an answer to questions of capability. I have heard of base jumping, but you'll never get my pale white behind on the ledge of a skyscraper, parachute or otherwise, so I hardly think my mere knowledge qualifies me to run a base jump association. Rather, it is her more-than-apparent flexibility with the nutcases who attend her rallies yelling "kill him!" in reference to one of her opponents. It would be far less disconcerting if Palin were simply just in favor of succession from the nation by Alaska than in trying her level-headed best to get a presidential candidate shot.

    It is Parker's opinion that Palin's supporters see themselves in her, and ultimately, how frightening could that wind up being, given the people that Palin herself has been palling around with? Parker asserts that Palin's "lack of polish and knowledge feels like an absence of slickness and glibness" to her supporters.

    That's just flat wrong. After eight years of an administration utterly void of slickness, that perpetuation cannot be allowed to continue unchecked. Glibness? That might be great fodder for a c**ktail party, but hardly in relation to the White House. Palin's got polish, folks, but let's not kid ourselves here. She's been polished with a dangerously crazy rag, and we are already seeing more than enough evidence of how the fumes have gotten to her.

    Probably Uncalled For

    Episode #70: Come join Thomas Keister and ppdingles tonight live on Blog Talk Radio, as they'll be discussing tonight's 4th presidential debate, a plethora of stuff on Sarah Palin, OJ Simpson, more stupid Britain, competitive overeating, and the possible death of the movie industry as we know it...other topics TBA

  • Date / Time:

    The People v. Dumbass- a burgeoning new Alaska tradition?

    Is it just me, or are we finding out that above all else, Alaskan politicians really like free houses? Fresh in the middle of Ted Stevens' corruption trial, new allegations are coming to light that the same firm that built the hockey rink that then-mayor Sarah Palin got erected in Wasilla (probably the only time I'll connect a variation of the word 'erect' with Sarah Palin) may have built her house for free.

    I'm just going out on a limb here, but don't you f**king morons (and by that, I'm speaking directly to Sen. Ted Stevens and Gov. Sarah Palin) think that bribery, kickbacks, greasing the wheels, whatever you want to call it, should be a little easier to conceal than a f**king house? It's not like cash, or hookers, or even a dildo sharpener in Palin's case would be that hard to sweep under a rug or deposit in the drawer next to the bed, as it were.

    Then again, try convincing either of these two rocket surgeons they even did anything wrong in the first place. Sure, the jury's still out on Stevens, so to speak, but what about Palin? She can't even figure out the basics of the national campaign trail, or the construction of a complete sentence, so her lack of grasp of Alaska's ethics laws seems hardly surprising at this point in time.

    Ignorance of the law is no excuse. So I've heard, and so I've been told. But in so far as Ted Stevens and Sarah Palin go, it may be one of the very few things in their respective careers- ignorance- that they have come by honestly.

  • Date / Time:

    McCain's search for comprehension

    I wonder when the epiphany is going to strike...I truly wonder when that day between now and the first Tuesday of November arrives, and the light bulb fires up over John McCain's head, and the realization finally sets in.

    "I couldn't have done a better job of snatching defeat from the jaws of victory if I was the 'B' fighter in a Don King pay-per-view main event."

    Granted, that may not be what the Senator from Arizona has flash through his head verbatim, but it probably won't be that far from the truth. As the 2008 presidential election winds down, do you think McCain is starting to compile his mental laundry list of what went wrong? I mean, let's not kid ourselves here, we're talking about a guy who went from being a Republican candidate I would have potentially voted for in 2000 to just another poorly sewn-together Dubya knock-off...a flip-flopping, rambling, clueless man stuck firmly in the grasp of denial.

    Was it hiring an all-star team of utter douchebags to run your campaign? Was it picking the original Desperate Housewife as your running mate? Was it briefly (or still, I can't keep track of my scorecard) running the dirtiest campaign of the televised political era? What will be the one thing McCain chalks up as the reason he finds himself sitting in whichever the hell house it will be on November 5, drinking Ovaltine and bottom shelf vodka and celebrating a second-place finish?

    Was it letting his wife give stump speeches when she was not busy swiping recipes from every other website she could get her hands on? Was it his running mate setting back the cause of women in politics for decades to come? Was it the leading conservatives, from George Will to Bill Kristol to Kathleen Parker to even Newt friggin' Gingrich falling all over themselves to proclaim that, in fact, this s**t is bananas? I guess we'll have to wait until November 5, cause if I tried to individually list all the possible causes, that's how long I'd be sitting here typing.
