this mess is getting entertaining. she's going to be torn to shreds now that the muzzles are off. the wingnuts are all buzzing for Jindal, and saying Fox is making sh-t up about Palin on purpose. hard to have a decent conversation when your mouth is full of crow.
On a different note, who is this Fox News dude? I like him. Some pretty straightforward honest and challenging interviewing on his part from the last few things I have seen.
I sensed Fox was hinting at not being the Only Neocon Friendly news channel when Murdoch and O'Reilly embraced Obama briefly in an interview. Murdoch knows where things are going.
Don't be surprised if FOX News changes in the next few years, or even next year, period.
In which direction I can't say, but I think Fox is realizing that the rupture in their viewer base is splitting up -- between the suit-n-tie Republicans and the Palin-loving Red Tin Foil Hat crowd -- and sustaining that audience is going to be more challenging, especially for the latter, who are now convinced that Fox is now part of THE LIBERAL MEDIA. They may angle for a more Drudgey shade of CNN or MSNBC, or perhaps even more to the center.
I'm being optimistic, granted.

My friends, contrary to what the godless anarchists and fudgefishers at The Stranger say, this election is not over. McCain/Palin can still win! All you gotta do is believe. And then go back to your polling place and vote again.
So many links, so little time. "Simone" was right in her 'bet' commenting on the 'Palin as President' thread. I believe my comment was 'right' as well.
Savage, you and your team are evolving this evening so quickly. Take a smoke break and talk to your sons about the birds and bees, or beagles and finches.
the GOP and McCain picked this nutball for VP and I dont feel sorry for her at all. she is a total moron and the GOP thought everyone with a vagina would simply vote for them because they chose her. they deserve everything they get for this mess they're in.
#13/14 - What? They don't have the word "no" in Alaska? Did it leave with all the "g's"? She knew very well what here capabilities and level of knowledge were and she agreed to run. I don't feel sorry for her in the slightest.
Bart: Stay tuned to this station for more juicy secrets about the adults of Springfield.
Homer: Whew, at least they already did me.
Bart: And plenty more on Homer Simpson.
Homer: D'oh!
Agreed. She said yes, so no feeling sorry for the lady. (Although it's not necessary to call her names, either.) My feeling is that she was suffering from small pond syndrome--she was king fish of Alaska, jumped into the national pond, and belly flopped like a muthafucka.
hey Dan, I love you; you're great, but really? Sorry for Sarah Palin? I was ready to get blackout drunk to a rigged McPalin presidency last night-- that's how jaded I am. When the opposite came true, and McCain gave his concession speech, Palin looked like she was going to cry. And I thought (and probably drunkenly yelled), "Cry, bitch cry. It's your fault. And thank you."
Sure, she can't help that she's kind of dumb and that she was picked and used politically. But I am frankly so so glad that I don't have to think about her seriously for a long long time to come. Fuck feeling bad for her. She and McCain both perpetuated a heinous and divisive campaign that will haunt us in the coming days. Their supporters think Obama is a terrorist!
I don't feel sorry for her. You know what? Stupid is fixable. If she couldn't be bothered to learn a few things to prepare to run a country with nuclear weapons, fuck her. Just couldn't be fucking bothered.
No pity here. But it does demonstrate how people can be so dumb, they don't realize how dumb they are. Actually, I think it's a bell curve: Smarter people realize how little they know, dumb people at Palin's level don't realize they're dumb, and where if you get dumber then Palin, people actually realize they can't do math, and they shouldn't run for public office.
If McCain dies in the next four years, this country is going to go, "fuuuuccckkkk. . . glad we dodged that bullet". I mean, this is where you want to take 48% of the country by the shoulders and shake 'em and yell, "what the FUCK were you thinking?!"

Don't feel sorry for Sarah Palin. If she and the hyperventilating religious nuts have their way, you'll see a lot more of her in 2012.
That filthy cunt spends every waking moment figuring out how she can get other people to give her more power and clothing. It's going to be so much fun to watch the inevitable passing of time take its toll on her fading beauty. She's such a pathetic whore she probably won't understand what is happening as her former allies abandon her for younger, more attractive mouthpieces.
She's not dumb, just differently unabled. Anyway, what's Fox doing report facsimiles of facts? Is this some kind of rightist reconfigurating action? Please, increase my knowledgeability.
Well now she knows how Britney feels. In fact where is Chris Crocker screaming "LEAVE SARAH ALONE!!! CAN'T YOU SEE SHE'S JUST A FUCKING IDIOT, LEAVE'RALOOOOONNNE!!!"
@24: Not only was she unprepared/unwilling to learn a few things in preparation to run a country with nuclear weapons... She was unwilling to learn that the word is pronounced nuclear... Not Nucular.
Fuck her and the moose she rode in on. The only ones I'm sad for are the poor animals her cowardly ass is going to shoot from a helicopter when she gets back to Alaska.

Good vocabulary in that reporting. Nice suits, too. Obama used to be the best dressed man on U.S. television until he made that unfortunately brilliant downshift (but his casual look is predictably good).
At 3:05 the guy speaking actually pauses after the fart.
While the fact that you guys now have a President Elect Obama makes me happy and smile a lot. The fact that this guy farted twice on Fox made me laugh out loud.
I LOVE THE SLOG

What's mind-blowing is that according to this, the entire press corps was aware of way more damaging stuff about Palin than what came out before the election, but considered it 'off the record'. I mean sure, it's nice to have an unblemished ethical record, but was it really worth risking Sarah Home-Skool Rapture-Ready Bratz Doll by Neiman-Marcus getting within an arm's length of the red button over?!
The selection of Sarah Palin is a vivid, unforgettable illustration of what the Republican party thinks of Americans. It was an insult to us all. "Let's see...female? Check. Photogenic? Check. Rabid religious greedy right-winger? You betcha. Willing to be nasty and divisive on national TV? Hoo boy." That's all they thought was necessary. It was a fucking Republican beauty pageant, not a serious selection of a serious candidate.
Republicans always turn on their own after an election. When lying cheating and stealing doesn't work they blame each other like a room full of first graders.
THIS BITCH DOES NOT FEEL SORRY FOR FUCKING SARAH PALIN. Thank GOD she's safely back in her frozen state, where she will hopefully stay forever and ever and ever.
Totally without benefit of the thought process .... I am totally convinced that Sarah Palin believed -- and still believes -- that God has chosen her to lead America during the End Times.
Fortunately, my God is bigger than her God, (grin) and Obama won.
I find that Africa thing really hard to believe. You'd have to work really hard to go through life without seeing a map of the continent, or a map of the world. Really hard.
Do not feel sorry for her. She is power hungry and will do whatever it takes to get there. she is poised to become the next senator from Alaska if Stevens gets elected.
@51: That 'Bushism' (like so many others) is a slip, a vebal typo, that happens to all of us from time to time as we use the wrong noun -- although 'W is certaintly prone to a lot more of them. It doesn't reflect the person's knowledge of the subject.
Seriously? You all believe this crap? Before McCain lost, certain people were saying, if he loses, Sarah Palin is going to be set up to take the fall. Nasty rumors will start right after the election. As predicted, here they come. Please don't believe everything some aid told some reporter. Honestly, how sad that they are trying to smear her to make him look better.
@53 Since the Republican party never wants to see Sarah Sociopath ever again, does your post mean that she has her very own paid commenter shills now?
I don't feel sorry for the idiot. I assume she'll be back in 2012. And she'll be destroyed in the first two weeks of the Republican primary.
Once you've been branded as the biggest joke of all time, there is no turning back. In four years, she'll be pushing 50 and the MILF thing will be gone. Without that, what is she -- other than laughed at and despised?

@55 Are you saying someone is going to pay me? yay!
I don't know about not recovering from being the biggest joke of all time. Ted Kennedy is still around isn't he and he isn't anything besides a joke. Biden has made a gigantic fool of himself on several occaisions and I know that given more time in the spotlight, he can only continue to do so.
Maybe only repubs can't recover from it. The dems do it very well.
@57 No, Ted Kennedy is a beloved elder statesman that imbecile yokels -- whose own personal foibles would make Ted Kennedy look like an icon of personal responsiblity -- enjoy mocking, in a completely un-Christian fashion and one which they hypocritically tell us not to apply to Sarah Sociopath.
Joe Biden is the Vice President-elect of The United States of America. What's Sarah Sociopath again? Oh, that's right -- the biggest joke of all time. Also: under multiple investigations. Let's throw in: tens of percentage points less popular with Alaskans than she was just a couple of months ago. If her own people don't want her anymore, nobody else is going to.
And you're not getting paid? So all you're getting out of this is having your country saved for you while you complain about it for free? Nice.

@55
She might still look good in four years. I hear that bathing in moose blood is almost as good as bathing in the blood of virgins. Unfortunately, Brisol cut off her supply of the latter.
@42 - Exactly. Their cold-hearted, assumption-laden calculated decision to cast Mrs. Palin in the role of aspiring VP tipped their cards big-time, and for all time. The Republican Party (at least this incarnation of it) thought so little of your intelligence and discernment that they put up this joke of a candidate, simply in order to retain power. I mean, not because they thought she was the best person for the job (HA!) or had any original ideas of leadership, and certainly not because they thought she was the best person for the country. They chose her because they thought they could hoodwink enough Amurrcans into voting for their ticket if they had Mrs. Palin standing up there next to Grandpa. "Hey y'all, look! She gots a bagina, she's purdy, she knows the Earth is only 6000 years old and she likes to shoot stuff! Vote fer us, 'kay?"
America to the Republican Party: "Thanks for the laughs, but.. uh.... No."
@ 58 beloved elder statesman...bwahaha...um...whatever you say! And yes, I can voice my thoughts and opinions for free cause a long time ago, these guys fought this war and then this dude named Al Gore invented Teh Internets for us to play on. But you're right, 100% right. *backs slowly away from the delusional people*
Well that explains the joke my friend made at an election night party. He dressed up as Sarah Palin, and he was saying that Alaska was a country! There were LOTS of Sarah Palin jokes that night!
this mess is getting entertaining. she's going to be torn to shreds now that the muzzles are off. the wingnuts are all buzzing for Jindal, and saying Fox is making sh-t up about Palin on purpose. hard to have a decent conversation when your mouth is full of crow.
Thank you for this - everyone should watch this. Further proof she was completely unqualified.
Plus she leaves the race with a $150,000 new wardrobe! I might weather public humiliation for a haute couture laden walk in closet.
She is! It's hilarious, but I can't describe how happy I am that we avoided the fate of having that dysfunctional team lead our nation.
I just hope all these hilarious stories that come out push away her remaining supporters, and that we don't hear from her in four years.
On a different note, who is this Fox News dude? I like him. Some pretty straightforward honest and challenging interviewing on his part from the last few things I have seen.
"There is to be an avalanche that will continue for many days now...of story upon story of the foibles of Sarah Palin"
Schadenfreude tastes delicious icing an Obama cake.
I think that's Shep Smith?
I sensed Fox was hinting at not being the Only Neocon Friendly news channel when Murdoch and O'Reilly embraced Obama briefly in an interview. Murdoch knows where things are going.
Don't be surprised if FOX News changes in the next few years, or even next year, period.
In which direction I can't say, but I think Fox is realizing that the rupture in their viewer base is splitting up -- between the suit-n-tie Republicans and the Palin-loving Red Tin Foil Hat crowd -- and sustaining that audience is going to be more challenging, especially for the latter, who are now convinced that Fox is now part of THE LIBERAL MEDIA.

Vote for McCain/Palin in 2008!
I did--and look how smart I am.
So many links, so little time. "Simone" was right in her 'bet' commenting on the 'Palin as President' thread. I believe my comment was 'right' as well.
Savage, you and your team are evolving this evening so quickly. Take a smoke break and talk to your sons about the birds and bees, or beagles and finches.
I shall go back to the 'missing link.'
Are they trying to place Shep Smith as their resident lib?
@8, thanks for reminding me that Shannon Harps would have been very happy today. Freak.
the GOP and McCain picked this nutball for VP and I dont feel sorry for her at all. she is a total moron and the GOP thought everyone with a vagina would simply vote for them because they chose her. they deserve everything they get for this mess they're in.
It's right to feel sorry for her. She was so unqualified, but John CHOSE her.

Not surprising....she can't see Africa from her house. And McCain didn't know where Spain...Ignorant is cool=Republican base.

I suddenly feel compelled to write a play, no - a musical, about Sarah Palin and Imelda Marcos shopping for shoes. I shall call it Viva Zapatos!
@20, or "Manolo Blahhhhhhhnik"
did that dude seriously just fart at 1:57?
WAIT. AND at 3:05? Damn.
I don't feel sorry for her. You know what? Stupid is fixable. If she couldn't be bothered to learn a few things to prepare to run a country with nuclear weapons, fuck her. Just couldn't be fucking bothered.

yes, it is telling when there is a lack of answers to questions
Knowledgeability?!
This goes to the top of my List of Schadenfreude Videos...
@22 LOL!
If McCain dies in the next four years, this country is going to go, "fuuuuccckkkk. . . glad we dodged that bullet". I mean, this is where you want to take 48% of the country by the shoulders and shake 'em and yell, "what the FUCK were you thinking?!"
