Todd and Sarah Palin unchallenged in Fox interviews – Los Angeles Times
Sinking to the occasion, Hannity lobbed softball questions, led his pliant subject to safe responses and not so subtly sprinkled his queries with barbs aimed at Barack Obama.
Why We Love Sean Hannity
Hiding her Pregnancy
Fusing Politics and Motherhood in a New Way – NYTimes.com
In just a few months, she has gone from hiding her pregnancy from those closest to her to toting her infant on stage at the Republican National Convention.
Why would a woman hide her pregnancy. I don’t get it.
Alaska’s Palin
What is McCain Thinking? One Alaskan’s Perspective. « Mudflats
Wasilla has a population of about 5500 people, and 1979 occupied housing units. This is where your potential Vice President was two short years ago. Can you imagine her negotiating a nuclear non-proliferation treaty? Discussing foreign policy? Understanding non-Alaskan issues? Frankly, I don’t even know if she’s ever been out of the country. She may ‘get’ Alaska, but there are only a half a million people here. Don’t get me wrong….I love Alaska with all my heart. I’m just saying.
Palin: She *is* Cute
Sarah Palin and Karen Valentine
Somehow one must feel insulted that John McCain thinks women are so superficial that they will vote for him because he chose someone for VP with the same chromosome designation as Hillary Clinton. Naaa, McCain is more astute than that. Right? Some advisory committee must have made this pick.
She is cute though.
Why Abortion?
Republicans: abortion, taxes, war…
Democrats: health, education, peace.
Either way it will cost money. What do we want to buy?
The choice is too easy.
Reverand Warren – Boob on the Tube
Same night. Fox and CNN. My head is spinning.
On Hannity & Colmes Rick Warren says he is a conservative.
On Larry King he says something about being in the center…
I was confused – then I lost a bunch of hoped-for respect for Rick Warren. Just another mega church preacher. Ick.
Obama looked down, feeling his answers, feeling for the middle. I thought.
McCain looked defiant. Fake. Overly prepared with audience-satisfying answers. Charming. Funny. Desperate to be president. I thought.
I bet he is still pissed off at Bush.

Hannity’s Dilemma
Again with Hannity on the way home. I find him a sad, little minded man. He doesn’t “know enough” about Obama – yet he chooses to believe the worst of him. He knew a lot about Bush – yet he chose to believe the best of him.
I wonder…If Obama turns out to be a great President will Hannity be happy for America?
Hannity’s Contract with America
Boy am I enjoying listening to Hannity and Limbaugh lately. These two are imploding. They are screeching like devils being sucked out of existence. Mostly, hearing Hannity mention the good reverend or Ayers every chance he gets, inspires me to giggle in my car on the drive home from work. Even his guests are shuffling back from him. Gingrich won’t even entirely agree with him. Even the “Architect” Rove, shuffles back from Hannity’s insanity. Amazing really.
Lately Hannity has been trying to push his 10 points for conservatives to follow. I can’t bear to even go to his website to take a look at them – the impression I get is that they are a reworking of Newt’s Contract with America. We all know how that turned out. The man honestly thinks he is a central figure in the presidential race. Narcissistic is too kind a diagnosis.
Today he was (Hannity) saying that nobody has ever pushed a candidate to get out of a race before. Only liberals would do this he says. Does Huckabee count? I seem to remember him staying in the Republican race and receiving much criticism and encouragement to drop out – long after it was apparent he just couldn’t win the nomination.
These two talking heads are terrified, They are facing irrelevancy and quickly. They like fat pied pipers have had a huge hand in leading the masses into the ditch. They and their followers are left with the Republican party they created and their numbers are apparently dwindling fast. Both Hannity and Limbaugh are trying to distance themselves from the “new” McCain and the Republican party with increasingly hysterical rants. (Great fun to listen to that!)
You know when Hannity and Limbaugh are pushing Hillary – something is terribly wrong and rotton in Denmark.
I gotta do that
The last year has had crazy changes and even crazier hours at work. The blog sits here and I think constantly I want to put something down in writing. Posterity maybe. More likely for me is to just play with the software and wrap some words around that. Or maybe it is the other way around…
WordPress has changed significantly in the last year – for the better it looks to me. Not that it wasn’t great before, but the changes are sweet! I want to play with the CSS. The credits thing looks interesting.
Not enough time to do everything I want to do.
I must clean my house today. I want to play with this, but I gotta do that. The laundry pile is staggering. Sigh…
Dog Whisperer
I do not know how to put this in a sidebar on WordPress. Oh well, it will have to be an entry. Cesar is a good guy. If you have a dog his show on National Geographic Channel is must see TV.
Rachel Maddow: Out and Beautiful
I think she is beautiful. Wonderful skin, lively eyes and an engaging smile. Really smart to boot. In other words real and beautiful. Totally easy on the eyes. She used to be the best thing on Tucker. Now I love to catch her on Countdown.
PageOneQ | Rachel Maddow: Out on Air America, shaking up the airwaves
More recently, Maddow has translated her radio success into frequent guest appearances on cable news channels such MSNBC and CNN — including a regular gig as a political analyst on “Countdown with Keith Olbermann.” But Maddow said that success in television, unlike radio, is heavily dependent upon an individuals optics.“I 100 percent believe that the reason that I have not gone further in television is not only because I am gay, but because of what I look like. I am not a Barbie girl with Barbie doll-like looks. Because in television, what you look like is a huge deal,”
AUGUSTEN BURROUGHS
If you haven’t read him, you will. This guy is an amazing writer with an incredibly interesting life to tell about. His books are laugh-out-loud funny and completely insane people populate his life.
While I was wrapped up in his life stories – it seems I have learned something about myself and I feel better about everything. Click his name below and then go buy his books. You won’t be sorry.
Running With Scizzors
Dry
Magical Thinking
That is just three of his titles. All of them are really wonderful.
