Tom Toles for January 13, 2010

This is going to be as bad as Balloon Boy.

THIS is the way Palin decided to serve the state of Alaska by stepping down as Governor? Serve herself more like…

Why don’t they have her interview some of the Republican leaders, like that senator from Arizona, about their opinion of her book.

Lord help us all…

Fox stays on message, “damn the facts full bull ahead.”

That interview will be almost as easy as when “The View” interviewed Hillary. http://thecaucus.blogs.nytimes.com/2007/10/15/clinton-shares-her-view-on-daytime-tv/

billdog - That is all lies and slander!! They SAY they’re fair & balanced so they OBVIOUSLY must be!

“She must be stopped! she may expose the commie/democrat plan to ruin the economy and surrender to the islamonazi’s..”

And here I thought it had more to do with retarded, bold-face lies like “Death Panels.”

Good one Tom! She’s not asking herself about what she’s read. Can you get a wink in there?

Simple minded … even my eighty-four year old auntie in Arkansas can see Palin isn’t put together right.

the death panels were there! when mentioned…removed in response…will reappear if the dems survive 2010

If I could stand watching Fox at all it would be fun to watch her destroy her presidential possibilities. She’ll be her own worst enemy. Sort of an self-expose.

she could probably figure out a way to get ‘gotcha’ questions from herself

^^NEVER underestimate the stupidity of the people.

Tina Fey can fill in for her

“Hey BSdog–can say the same for MSNBC “hosts.””

Say what exactly? I don’t remember seeing that many Dem pols having side gigs running shows on MSNBC. Then again, I don’t watch much of that, either. Their news are palatable, I guess, but guys like Olbermann are a similar kind of junk food partisan programing as the O’Reillys. Sure, it’s more palatable, at least to my taste, but it’s about as much for an actual political discussion as Burger King and KFC are for having a decent diet.

@tcolkett - You don’t have “presidential possibilities” when you quit your one defensible position because “you don’t want to deal with it.” Obama gets plenty of resistance and attacks from both his party and especially Republicans and he has not quit, whereas a year into her term, she’s gone and out sewing the seeds of fear and ignorance on Fox News. All that’s missing is sponsorship from Gold Line. She has no presidential prospects.

Olbermann’s a bit too Left for me, Rachel Maddow is Okay because at least she tries to get Right-Winger’s on her show and gives them time to speak and doesn’t get in shouting matches with them. Still waiting for Liz Cheney to grow some courage and debate her instead of whining about how the opposition won’t debate her when she keeps turning down offers.

I’m waiting for Liz Cheney to grow some justification for being interviewed at all, other than being Cheney’s daughter. As for Palin…give her enough rope, and we’ll see. I expect some excellent episodes of The Daily Show forthcoming…and if they can get the right person (Samantha Bee?), spin off a female-style Colbert Report…

She’s had rope, but Faux will make sure there is no trap door under her. Well, given past record, she’ll just leap over the railing.

she promised the people of alaska a gas line to relieve the BP nat gas glut, it is NOT going to happen, she lied, and then she quit. IF the she says ANYTHING critical of the brits, SIR murdock take her RIGHT off., no doubt she will read the economist on tv adn (suddenly) become “knowledable”. Sadly she is NOT a republican nor american, a phony,”conservitive, “big is bad”, the US republic is too large,huge, yadda yadda, NO difference than amory lovins and jane fonda, small is beautiful.

She can easily turn into a college drinking game, each time she attacks the size of our Republic, take a drink. “huge, gigantic, too big” yadda yadda( except for a ‘socialist” military and over whelming homeland sec “needs” she will jus mouth jus what Lord murdock, Lord Bush, Lord Kissinger want her to say, an attack lap dog against the Republic, covered in fundy thots- a fear monger you betcha! jus look how she destroyed Alaska ( and they are STILL paying for it.

I wonder if she’s finally read ALL of the newspapers and magazines out there so now she’ll know more about the world…..

….nah!

Palin interview with Beck today. “This great nation blah blah this great nation of ours blah blah blah this great nation blah blah blah this great nation of ours blah blah blah this great nation blah blah blah this great nation of ours blah blah blah this great nation blah blah blah this great nation of ours blah blah blah this great nation blah blah blah this great nation of ours blah blah blah this great nation blah blah blah this great nation. ”

Good idea, ahab. Put ‘em on the Appalachian Trail!

So according to the Interview clips I saw, Fox is committing itself [moreso] to being Palin’s personal media arm where she can go and spout off insanities whenever she feels she’s been “wronged.” Lulztastic.

^ Lulztastic? never heard that … it comes from?

Lulz is a Lolcat spelling of “LOLs” which of course means “Laugh Out Loud.” Thus, highly humorous. Kids these days…

What better way to raise ratings than to put a train wreck on t.v.

It’s sad to see so many faith-mockers…Thought America and the West was better than that.
