I know most politicians are full of shit but this wank can't even speak in complete sentences. "I believe, that some U.S. Americans, don't have maps, such as, The Iraq, South Africa…"
Alice, if you do that, there will be no chance for continuing Tina Fey impression…and I like those. Let's let her stick around and pretend to run for things…for entertainments sake.
Well, she can stay, but she must be contained. Perhaps we can put her in a zoo, next to, but with out access to a polar bear habitat. She'll be almost close enough to kill it with her drilling smugness, but just far away enough for the polar bear to throw it's shit at her.
To put another perspective out there..I used to give environmental surveys and the people in Alaska were sick of how the people in the lower 48 wanted to keep the whole state a national park. They wanted some development just as we all have the luxury to have down here.
Sure sar, mouth breathers. Those morons that always seem to have their mouths hung open. With that sort of classic "duh" look on their face.
Caroline, development is one thing, turning the whole state into an oil derrek is quite another. I can't help but think they just want to keep collecting the bonus check from the state that they've been getting .. perhaps bigger checks.
Mouth breathers as in people too stupid to realize how bad of an idea it is to allow this woman anywhere near the White House. Republicans won't be the only ones voting for this woman.
wow…I was annoyed that McSame picked this twit but now all I can say is…Thank you! If we lose to these itiots I am moving to Canada. Seriously, I've seen preschoolers who talk better BS then Palin.
Lisa, I'm kinda with you on that. My husband isn't a citizen here, not yet. He has said that if McCain wins, he will not complete his application. He's lost that much faith in wanting to be an American. I'm not sure what we'll do. We could go back to England or we could go to Canada (I'm pushing for Canada, as I'd like to stay closer-ish to my mom). We shall see ..
I do hope Obama wins .. I don't really feel like moving again.
I'm starting to get an idea… bear with me… if you guys come here, and bring enough delicious treats, we could effectively close the border so that when Palin becomes president and destroys the world, the Canadian economy won't collapse as well.
We will build a commune, and we will eat chiles and ho-hos and jersey corn and blueberries, and I will provide Canadian Club whiskey and strong beer. We will have to arduously shovel snow for 5 or 6 months a year, but we will be drunk and full.
Alice, last year the snowbanks on my street, in the downtown of a big city in southern Canada, were at times twice my height. I am not a midget or a toddler.
They have to come cart them off in giant trucks, or else they will engulf us and kill us. Literally.
There were days the entire city shut down because it snowed 3 feet. Actually, that was kind of sweet.
Janice, I iive in Boston, MA and Derry, NH. I loved the snow in New England .. loved it! I would love to get the hell out of Texas … all it is here is hot. Hate it!!
Oh dude, if I wasn't so scared of your government, I'd trade you for a few months a year at least. I love love love when it's sweltering hot, and we get so little of that here. This summer was garbage, and it's already heading back into winter. Booooooo.
I lived in Jacksonville, Florida. There were days when it s 103 degrees outside, 83% humidity .. I would see people out jogging in weather like that .. or heading to the beach. It was at that point when I realised I must be the odd out .. I was always running from one air conditioned space to the next. I'm just not built for it. I'm pale as hell and tend to over heat.
Haha, I'm the exact opposite. Our winters here can go down to -40*F or lower, and our summers to 105*F or higher, if you count humidity. In the summer everyone cries and cries about how hot it is, and I'm biking around like a fool, or laying out in the sun.
You're like bizarro janice. Or I'm bizarro Alice. Either or. Homemade twinkies?!
Hammonton, NJ is the blueberry cap of the world. or so they claim.
but we got good produce, for sure.
I however, don't like the cold or snow, so we need the secretary of the interior (who was that, again?) to create some sort of greenhouse/biodome thing for us chickens.
April, I've only been in Texas since May. I spent last winter in the snow .. in of all places Louisville, KY. we got a foot of snow on 2 occasions. Before that, I spent a winter in London .. no snow, but lovely and freezing cold. I also spent a lot of my winters in Washington DC and Boston. I love and I stand by that.
Frankly, I find your insinuation insulting. I'm a grown up and know what I like and what I don't like. I love the snow.
I used to love snow. And I guess to some extent I still love snow but I hate the bitter cold. Last winter was the longest winter in the history of my life, here in Chicago. It was awful. And I think I get SAD too. I'm already pre-SAD just thinking about it. Fug.
I totally understand that some people don't like it. My mom is one of those people. She has one of those full spectrum lights for the winter time. She gets super depressed. I don't envy her that.
all three of you dingbats shut up!!!! I used to live in Colorado and one time at band camp…..geeze - we need to defend our fellow - Ameeericans from the ignorant and unintelligible forces of Palin and McCain!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
kittenpaw, I'm in Chicago, too, and am not happily anticipating another 5-month winter stuck in an apartment with 2 toddlers. Ugh. How can one NOT get SAD in such conditions?… Maybe I should buy them snowsuits and stick them on the 3-season porch whenever it gets too crazy.
I'd like to join all of the anti-snow folks. I live east of Lake Michigan. Any storm that comes across the lake picks up a ton of moisture and dumps it right on my house. Lake effect snow sucks!
Most honorable MOCT,
[and, please call me qc :-)]
I had a whole bunch of nosey questions for you after I found out that you are in HI.
I curtailed myself.
But you need to know that one of the very best weeks of my life was the week I spent on Oahu.
I don't even want to think about how long ago that was. I was with my favorite exhusband so that gives you an idea.
He had been stationed at Schofield Barracks before we were married. So he had lots of locals that were his friends that showed us a great time.
My daughter is going to HI in October.
I am dreaming and planning on retiring someday,
(and that day just got a little further set back due to some mess on Wall Street) but I am coming to HI for retirement!
while I was reading these I was shouting "it is poo - poo is the secretary of the interior!!" Luckily your paint wheel/phone went off to let you know they needed your help!!
I am okay with snow. If it is going to be cold, hell, it might as well snow. Unfortunately here in Kansas, it doesn't snow as much as it did in Wisconsin. Although, last winter they had over 100 inches of snow which is a lot for that area. Glad to have missed that!! Sounds like some of what you got Chezsan??!!
It is still 80s here though - I want fall!
queencorn, that is funny about the Tyra-isms. I have a few myself. Like when in one of those Top Model episodes, a model fainted and Tyra was like all worried looking and for a moment a flash of sympathy wahed over her face, but then Tyra opened her mouth and said " I was sooo scared! are yo guys okay? that ws so scary foe me!" too funny. Anyway, I now lost complete track of what this post is…. oh, yes Gov. Palin. That poor thing needs to go home to her baby boy and hold him and kiss him in cozy bedroom.
omg. that just makes me cringe!! geez, I swear that is something I would do… babble, babble and then be earnest. Then a dawn of light would slap atop of my head and then a voice out of nowhere would whisper, "GET OUT. RUN FOR THE HILLS". My face was burning for her. Good God. That is very reminiscent of Miss South Carolina (Teen USA) or was it Miss North Carolina? and such because America and Iraq and such.
Snow? Blueberries? It's so easy to get distracted on the net. I think this was all about some scary small town politician who wants to play with the big boys and live in a big white house. Personally, I think our Molly should be World President - brains and beauty work for her, but sadly, not for that Alaskan neanderthal.
Oh…my….God. We are fucked..
Seriously let's all stop going to work and just kinda take care of each other. Commune.
Actually I'm down for a Zombie uprising. I think I would be a badass in a Zombie uprising.
I blame this all on Tyra Banks.
She paved the way for people to claim they are experts with no exertion.
It's called Tyraism.
If the mouth breathers have their way, this woman could potentially be president should old John-John kick the bucket in the next four years.
I'm scared, somebody hold me.
if GW hadn't been elected TWICE I wouldn't worry a moment even.
WORRY.
She speaks "American".
I know most politicians are full of shit but this wank can't even speak in complete sentences. "I believe, that some U.S. Americans, don't have maps, such as, The Iraq, South Africa…"
Heh. I like how she had to keep repeating "my state, Alaska", and "that country, Russia", just to fill up time.
Uma, Oprah. Have you met Keanu?
Can't believe Palin just reminded me of that.
As president, I'm going to have this woman and her family exiled to the small island from which she can see Russia. It's for the good of the nation.
Alice, if you do that, there will be no chance for continuing Tina Fey impression…and I like those. Let's let her stick around and pretend to run for things…for entertainments sake.
Well, she can stay, but she must be contained. Perhaps we can put her in a zoo, next to, but with out access to a polar bear habitat. She'll be almost close enough to kill it with her drilling smugness, but just far away enough for the polar bear to throw it's shit at her.
Oh, and she'll also have to wear a shock collar.
i don't get it - mouth breathers? republicans have a cold?
To put another perspective out there..I used to give environmental surveys and the people in Alaska were sick of how the people in the lower 48 wanted to keep the whole state a national park. They wanted some development just as we all have the luxury to have down here.
never thought of it that way caroline. you guys are we taking freedoms away from alaskans?
i mean i can't personally say i care about alaskans - and if they want to make the whole place a carl's jr i say go ahead.
but back to my questions.
mouth breathers?
freedoms?
delicious burger combos?
Sure sar, mouth breathers. Those morons that always seem to have their mouths hung open. With that sort of classic "duh" look on their face.
Caroline, development is one thing, turning the whole state into an oil derrek is quite another. I can't help but think they just want to keep collecting the bonus check from the state that they've been getting .. perhaps bigger checks.
Carl's Jr. sucks.
I doubt that turning the whole country into an oil derrek is what they meant.
LET NADER DEBATE…AYYEEEE!!
Mouth breathers as in people too stupid to realize how bad of an idea it is to allow this woman anywhere near the White House. Republicans won't be the only ones voting for this woman.
Or what Alice said.
Caroline, perhaps not, but they love getting those government oil checks that they get. I'm sure they'd like more.
vhttp://articles.latimes.com/2007/sep/20/nation/na-briefs20.s1
That's what they got in '07.
wow…I was annoyed that McSame picked this twit but now all I can say is…Thank you! If we lose to these itiots I am moving to Canada. Seriously, I've seen preschoolers who talk better BS then Palin.

We could go back to England or we could go to Canada (I'm pushing for Canada, as I'd like to stay closer-ish to my mom). We shall see ..
I do hope Obama wins .. I don't really feel like moving again.
You're all welcome, but you've gotta promise you didn't vote McCain to get in. That's our citizenship test.
Also, you need to bring something fun we can't get up here. Anything, we're not picky. What is a ho-ho?
Ho-ho's are gross! Don't eat it.
Janice, not a problem. I am Obama/Biden all the way.
Hmmm .. I can bring you some delicious Hatch Chiles from New Mexico.
Hmmm, hatch chiles sound tasty! Anything with spiciness gets you express entry.
And upon googling ho-hos, they look delicious, but I can see how they would easily not be. Status pending on those.
Janice, I'll offer you as much jersey corn and tomatos as you can eat. (in season, of course)
blueberries too, from the blueberry capital of the world.
I disagree, I think Ho-Hos are yummy, but some prefer a twinkie.
http://www.hostesscakes.com/hohos.asp
Say, are you in Maine? You lucky bastard. Or is Maine only the wild blueberry capital … ?
For the record, I make homemade twinkies .. they're awesome. This is the recipe I use:
http://www.chow.com/recipes/10467
I have a neat twinkie pan too/
I'm starting to get an idea… bear with me… if you guys come here, and bring enough delicious treats, we could effectively close the border so that when Palin becomes president and destroys the world, the Canadian economy won't collapse as well.
We will build a commune, and we will eat chiles and ho-hos and jersey corn and blueberries, and I will provide Canadian Club whiskey and strong beer. We will have to arduously shovel snow for 5 or 6 months a year, but we will be drunk and full.
QUIT YOUR JOBS AND TAKE TO THE STREETS! IT'S TIME FOR A REVOLUTION!
I love snow. I could live in a igloo. I do not engage in hyperbole here. I really love the snow. I think I was meant to be a polar bear.
@ "Putin rears his ugly head"
WOW. That's so diplomatic of you, Sarah! Can't wait to see the mature way you'll address the rest of the world's leaders!
I now love Katie Couric, by the way.
Alice, last year the snowbanks on my street, in the downtown of a big city in southern Canada, were at times twice my height. I am not a midget or a toddler.
They have to come cart them off in giant trucks, or else they will engulf us and kill us. Literally.
There were days the entire city shut down because it snowed 3 feet. Actually, that was kind of sweet.
You'd love it here!
I am loving how queeny Anderson Cooper has become in recent weeks. L O V I N G.
Seriously Stoney. Putin is not that bad looking - have you seen him in his judo outfit? Meow! :)
Janice, I iive in Boston, MA and Derry, NH. I loved the snow in New England .. loved it! I would love to get the hell out of Texas … all it is here is hot. Hate it!!

HAHAHAHAHA. I LOVE the look on Anderson's face! he he
Haha, I'm the exact opposite. Our winters here can go down to -40*F or lower, and our summers to 105*F or higher, if you count humidity. In the summer everyone cries and cries about how hot it is, and I'm biking around like a fool, or laying out in the sun.

nope, I'm in jersey.

I'm not sure who the sec of the interior is … anyone want to volunteer?
Alice
you only remember snow fondly because its a memory. i live in boston. if you like you can come shovel my walk this winter. :-D
April, I've only been in Texas since May. I spent last winter in the snow .. in of all places Louisville, KY. we got a foot of snow on 2 occasions. Before that, I spent a winter in London .. no snow, but lovely and freezing cold. I also spent a lot of my winters in Washington DC and Boston. I love and I stand by that.
Frankly, I find your insinuation insulting. I'm a grown up and know what I like and what I don't like. I love the snow.
fuck off.
i was teasing.
learn to laugh baby.
That seems like the appropriate response.
I used to love snow. And I guess to some extent I still love snow but I hate the bitter cold. Last winter was the longest winter in the history of my life, here in Chicago. It was awful. And I think I get SAD too. I'm already pre-SAD just thinking about it. Fug.

i thought Gorbachev was the one with the ugly head?
dammit, i know less and less these days.
my SAD is a little different -

Alice, any snow we get in NJ this year is yours for the taking.
but, you do have to come to NJ to take it. we don't ship out of state.
all three of you dingbats shut up!!!! I used to live in Colorado and one time at band camp…..geeze - we need to defend our fellow - Ameeericans from the ignorant and unintelligible forces of Palin and McCain!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hey dana, your term "dingbat" reminds me of that old Archie Bunker.
"Edith, you dingbat!"
"Awwww, Awrchie!"
As a matter of fact, if John McCain smoked a cigar….nawww. But kind of….
:-)
Anyone call for the Secretary of the Interior?
Should I bring my wallpaper swatch books?
How about my back issues of Martha Stewart Living?
We do have an interior sec, but i forgot who it was, I was drinking wine spritzers with Ahmenidijad, hmmm…
MyOpinionCountsToo! (I am still trying to make MOCT happen)
Look at you, always burning the midnight oil for the greater good. Thank you. :-)
I'd like to join all of the anti-snow folks. I live east of Lake Michigan. Any storm that comes across the lake picks up a ton of moisture and dumps it right on my house. Lake effect snow sucks!
Senator Queen, MOCT, is perfectly fine! I am in HI, so its just afternoon time for us! :)
