Dick Cheney’s bunker, for a little one-on-one? Pretty sick humor, I know.

No doubt somewhere where she is being force fed the RNC talking point to continue to give her the illusion of depth. Her abysmal ignorance is simmering right below the surface. Or perhaps she on the mountain top, where God is telling her to invade Iran.

She’s vacationing in the Land of Shekinah now.

I think she’s enjoying pancakes with tiger butter at Sambo’s.

Why, she’s over at Fannie Mae’s house, helping her and Freddie Mac fit the taxpayers up with a much larger dildo.
Just where Fannie Mae’s house is, no one can say. All we know for sure is that, like us, it’s not in Kansas anymore.

[Rick Davis, campaign manager for John McCain’s presidential bid, insisted that the presidential race will be decided more over personalities than issues during an interview with Post editors this morning.
“This election is not about issues,” said Davis. “This election is about a composite view of what people take away from these candidates.”]
……………
Or in other words, this election is about advertising and selling the republican brand of rare and purified identity politics. Sarah Palin is the most advanced and radical product of such, that the republicans (or any other party) have ever tried to sell to the American public. And there’s a substantial possibility that that this woman could end up controlling the most powerful office in the world, without her having to answer so much as one softball vanity question lobed in slow motion by the most corrupt news agency in the world.
Of course the critics of such, fall right their lap, and into perfect harmony with their plan when they refuse to play along, proudly insisting that the election should be limited only to the real issues.

She’s back in AK, spending time with her son before he ships off to fight in God’s chosen conflict, “fighting Al-Quaida in Diyala”.

It seems to me that our dear leaders are acting out Caligula much the same way other people do the Rocky Horror Picture Show
you know we are near the end when we are calmly informed that the presidential elections are not about issues.

Palin is a red herring (red barracuda?). While Barack Obama attacks her, John McCain is waltzing towards the White House.
Amen, and a woman…
anna missed, you are dead on, what you are describing is what Lakoff speaks of in the way they us the message in modifying political behavior by manipulating group identification, here George Lakoff explains in “The Political Mind” and as the late Marshal McLuhan, said, “the medium is the message.”
I got a feeling she is holed up somewhere in a pow wow, getting spiritual advice from the likes of evangelical Billy graham, and her home town pastor, whom I can be bothered to look up. You know, you see one you seen em all…lol

Should have read, …”whom I can’t be bothered to look up.”

rhat is sooo yesterday! they told us last week and the week before, so whyyyy do they keep talking about the issues!
this reminds me of my kids internet games where you get to pick your character at the beginning. the actions don’t change or the whatever controls them, we just get to pick their forms, their images.
they’re all Cheneras now.

and ultimately those forms, and whatever controls them, control your child, creating and redirecting neural pathways with consequences that won’t be realized until it’s too late. but, hey, at least you’re contributing to GDP, like a good democrat. hamburgers for everyone.

that may be the plan, but it doesn’t grab all the minds. it didn’t grab my sons anyway. you can lead a horse to water but if the horse trusts his own instinct he won’t drink it if there’s poison in it. no matter how many billions have been invested in research.

? not following how contributing to GDP is ‘like a good democrat’ as opposed to ‘like a good rethug’ or ‘like a good independent’.
enlighten me.

I’m guessing Xbox meant ‘democrat’ as in someone who participates in the democratic process. Or should that be ‘democratic’ process?
The institutionalized pacification and moulding of our children, though, is a whole ‘nother topic…

The press says she’s a mom, not a bad play in newpolitic, the stories against her are running into the story of her pure, unassailable loving and nurturing of her children. It is bloody bootyfull.

Well she’s probably the only real person on the ticket since Mr Peanut Butter himself.

this might be a little off topic, but that’s only because i consider the above speculation a total waste of time.
instead i would suggest watching closely what happens with the preemptive arrests for conspiracy to commit riots in furtherance of terrorism, which is the charge the RNC 8 received for planning their protest (for those of you too mesmerized by sarah’s inexplicable selection to pay attention to the actions of amerika’s ever evolving police state, the RNC 8 is comprised of eight members of the RNC welcoming committee, the most notorious group targeted before the convention started)

whoops–forgot to link to this article which says it better than i can at the moment–i’m too filled with an unspecific rage over how well we allow ourselves to be played by these despicable monsters.

one more article regarding amerika’s latest domestic terrorists.

Thanks for the links Lizard. I agree. Just part of the ever evolving march toward police state Amerika.
Posted by: Ben | Sep 8 2008 7:56 utc | 26
Its ALL, including the Palin story, part of “the evolving march toward police state Amerika”. The legitimacy of one empowers the legitimacy of the other.

Pretty extensive Newsweek profile of Palin: The usual rightwing crony politician.
that may be the plan, but it doesn’t grab all the minds. it didn’t grab my sons anyway. you can lead a horse to water but if the horse trusts his own instinct he won’t drink it if there’s poison in it. no matter how many billions have been invested in research.
That’s good to hear. Too many parents literally throw their children at this medium without considering the implications. Still, exposure should be not only monitored, but limited.

Good question.
It has to do with this.

abc news:Palin Won’t Do Interviews Until Treated with “Deference”
Rick Davis, campaign manager for Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., just told Fox News Channel’s Chris Wallace that McCain running mate Gov. Sarah Palin won’t subject herself to any tough questions from reporters “until the point in time when she’ll be treated with respect and deference.”
You all, can go suck a muffler, you need to quit being mean to her!

Sounds like Davis & Co are really quite worried she can’t hold up.

Rick Davis, campaign manager for John McCain’s presidential bid, insisted that the presidential race will be decided more over personalities than issues during an interview with Post editors this morning.
That has always been so in some measure. Obviously the McC VP pick is to make it more so, – saying so in this fashion makes it a self fulfilling prophecy – drowning out the issues, thus pre-emptively discrediting whatever serious proposals Obama has to offer. I still think that the Palin woman makes McC less secure in his projected win, and that this election, as compared to the two previous ones, is more about issues than personalities.
As Xbox (17) points out, the forms are important. Putting them above content, as is being done by McC is one thing; their ultimate influence another. Perhaps the radicalization and polarization is a reaction to the issues that confront the US voter.
It seems to me that was is being avoided here – deliberately or unconsciously – is the public acceptance of a one-party state (a la chop sticks, where the Gov. is the Mega-Corp) and/or the descent of the US into a two party state, drawn along ethnic cum socio-economic lines, straight opposition, if you will. As is, both the Repubs. and the dems. draw the votes of the ‘poor’, the workers, the struggling middle class.
The police state would work in favor of the first and to prevent the second. (see Lizard.)

anna missed@27: you’re right, of course, and Palin should be getting extreme scrutiny, i just wish the disgust over her selection could be either matched or exceeded by disgust over the escalation of domestic suppression via storm troopers busting into homes with AR-15’s drawn because planning protests is now synonymous with terrorism.
this is the amerikan endgame and instead of starting to grapple with the immense issues looming large over our collective heads (fuck you Rick Davis for being right) we’re watching these nauseating episodes of amerikan idol.
Palin’s removal by her handlers from the public sphere is certainly strange, but it’s no stranger than Obomb ditching the press, leaving them dumbfounded on the tarmac, while he “secretly” meets with hillary (and bilderberg chum for the conspiracists).
to quote Vonnegut: and so it goes…

xbox, thanks for your #30 reference. i misunderstood your meaning. “would yield 9.33 percent more income per person, ‘. the gdp grows more when facilitated by dems are in office, but all americans being ‘better’ consumers, not just dems. income inequality trended substantially upward under Republican presidents but slightly downward under Democrats,
b, re mcCain’s choice
It’s more a sign of the times, where it’s become clear that Exxon’s trying to buy themselves another Dick Cheney. … When you hear that almost maniacal chant of ‘Drill Baby Drill’ coming from the convention floor, you’re hearing the voice of Exxon, trying to make their last big land grab by making sure we elect a new and improved Dick Cheney as VP — just one a hell of a lot better looking.”
Papantonio reminded his audience of Cheney’s secretive 2001 Energy Task Force, saying, “Cheney promised Exxon there’d never be any windfall taxes put in place. … He promised the energy industry that the Bush administration would slow down global warming research. … He’d see to it that the number of oil leases were increased. … He promised the oil industry that they’d be permitted to rape and pillage Iraq and that American troops would be sacrificed if necessary.”
“Sarah Palin?” Papantonio asked. “Well, she’s big oil’s new chance to drill the American public one more time.”
“So when you hear the words ‘Drill Baby Drill’ being screamed from the Republican convention floor,” concluded Panantonio, “more than a picture of seedy hotels in out-of-the-way Alaskan towns should come to your mind. Exxon has another kind of drilling that they’re thinking about — that involves all Americans getting drilled.”
