Sunday Night Blogger Blogging: Around the blogroll and elsewhere
Posted by Jill | 9:42 PM
Some perennial favorites, and some that I neglect horribly:

Hoffmania: Even fancy coffee drinks are OK if you're a Republican.

Dave Neiwert: The FBI wanted to charge the meth-heads accused of plotting to kill Barack Obama during the Democratic National Convention, but a U.S. Attorney who is a Karl Rove operative said no.

Fact-esque: I'll bet this story won't get a lot of media attention: A former Halliburton executive has pleaded guilty to bribery in connection with a contract to build a liquefied natural gas pipeline in Nigeria. This occurred when Dick Cheney was CEO.

Oliver Willis: The contrast between the Democratic and Republican conventions reminded him why he's a Democrat. (Me too.)

Walter Brasch: What Sarah Palin's lust for killing says about her.

Pam: Michael Reagan, instead of seeing the Virgin Mary on a grape (I think it looks more like the woman on the Sun-Maid raisin box, sees his father in a dress.

Brad Friedman: subbing for Randi Rhodes tomorrow (Monday) on NovaM Radio from 3-6 PM Eastern time.

Sam Seder and Marc Maron: doing a VODcast tomorrow (Monday) from 3-4 PM. If you do not have a NovaM subscription, your head will explode trying to decide what to do.

James Wolcott: on Sarah Palin's speech.

Tata: ...is never one to shy away from a fashion statement, but as she so aptly and succinctly notes, this particular piece of headgear really IS vile.

Andy Ostroy: It isn't that Palin is a woman, it's that she's the WRONG woman. (But I have to wonder just how much the Hillarion Hissyfits had to do with creating this mess.)

And finally...

Blue Girl: McCain has a Napoleon Complex.

This blog has tons of crazy documents on Palin… http://liz-seattlespeak.blogspot.com
Like 50 thousand dollars spent on CARPET during renovations on the governor’s mansion
http://www.gov.state.ak.us/omb/09_omb/budget/Admin/Veto/2008proj45391.pdf

also Jesus General gave a helmet tip to her today for a document FROM palin that outlines this policy

“Faced with the prospect of so many Alaska Guardsmen and soldiers returning home after suffering traumatic brain injuries (TBI), Gov. Sarah Palin reached deep into Alaska's coffers to allocate one hundred dollars to teach health care professionals how to recognize TBI cases.”
http://www.gov.state.ak.us/omb/09_omb/budget/bills/MHT_Report_Letter.pdf

There is a post now with an mp3 of a call with her or some sort of recording with here where she talks about her “disappointment” in reclassifying polar bears as endangered. There is also a letter talking about her opposition to classifying beluga whales as endangered!

It’s a goldmine over here!

"ABC NEWS" GETS THE FIRST GOVERNOR PALIN INTERVIEW! WHOOPEE!

I WISH SHE HAD TOLD ALL MAINSTREAM 'BIASED' MEDIA TO KISS OFF, AFTER THE WAY THEY WENT AFTER HER FAMILY; HOWEVER, SHE IS A STRONG AMERICAN AND WILL DO FINE.

Poor Obama --- he’s resorted to calling Sarah a LIAR. This is going to get good sooner than we think. Last week, he sent "30" lawyers to Alaska to vet Governor Palin! Why? The DNC and biased media never vetted their 'golden boy' --- if they had, Hillary would be the Democratic candidate.

GOVERNOR PALIN HAS ACTUALLY WORKED FOR THE PEOPLE (AS MAYOR AND AS GOVERNOR OF THE STATE OF ALASKA) AND NOW, OBAMA IS RUNNING AROUND LIKE A CHICKEN WITH IT’S HEAD CUT OFF. WHY IS HE SO SCARED? HE’S COMING ACROSS LIKE A BLUNDERING IDIOT. GOVERNOR PALIN IS NOT RUNNING FOR PRESIDENT --- JOHN McCAIN IS.

GOVENOR SARAH PALIN IS A BREATH OF FRESH AIR AND OFFERS A CHANGE WE CAN BELIEVE IN! IF, GOD FORBID, SOMETHING SHOULD HAPPEN TO SENATOR McCAIN, I KNOW GOVERNOR PALIN WILL CHOOSE A GOOD, STRONG VP TO HELP THE AMERICAN PEOPLE.

REGARDING THE “BRIDGE TO NOWHERE” ISSUE:

GOVERNOR PALIN DID NOT ASK FOR THE BRIDGE — NOR DID SHE ASK FOR THE MONEY! SINCE SHE HAS BEEN “GOVERNOR” OF ALASKA, SHE HAS NOT SUPPORTED THIS BRIDGE.

GOVERNORS AND STATE OFFICIALS “DON’T” ASK FOR FEDERAL MONEY (EARMARK MONEY OR PORK) — THAT’S DONE BY “SENATORS” AND “CONGRESSMEN”! WE NEED TO REPLACE THE DO-NOTHING DEMOCRATS IN CONGRESS!

TOUCHE!

I’M VOTING FOR THE HONORABLE JOHN S. McCAIN IN NOVEMBER.
