Creationist Cat: Is Sarah Palin a Fartknocker?



Published on Aug 12, 2014

Creationist Cat analyzes recent compromising footage of Sarah Palin that some have called "a babbling, incoherent mess showing signs of clear drunkeness." Is this a cringe-worthy scandal or just another phony controversy cooked up by the lame-stream media? Creationist Cat and his special guest Creationist Cat get to the bottom of it!




Run, Sarah, Run!

I would like to find this video without the er... commentary at the end which took away from the overall point.

Which is that Sarah is losing it, or lost it, or never had it.

Anyone got that clip?

TIA.

It isn't the full video, either. Perhaps a blessing in disguise. TPM says she went over all eleven of Warren's' progressive commandments. Our brains might ooze out our ears if we heard all that she has to wahlgarble... er, say.

Sarah Palin Embarrasses Herself

The Young Turks Published on Aug 11, 2014

"The latest video on Sarah Palin's eponymous online network was billed as a rebuttal to Sen. Elizabeth Warren's (D-MA) Netroots Nation speech, but some of Palin's points were just too incoherent to follow.

In the video posted Friday, Palin responded point by point to eleven "commandments" that Warren outlined in her speech to the progressive confab last month. Warren's sixth point, that fast food workers deserve a living wage, drew so much scorn from Palin that she stumbled over her words a few times.

"We believe -- wait, I thought fast food joints -- don't you guys think that they're like of the devil or something?" Palin said. "Liberals, you want to send those evil employees who would dare work at a fast food joint that you just don't believe in -- I don't know, I thought you wanted to send them to purgatory or something. So they all go vegan. And wages and picket lines, I don't know, they're not often discussed in purgatory are they? I don't know, why are you even worried about fast food wages? Well, we believe -- an America where minimum wage jobs, they're not lifetime gigs, they're stepping stones to sustainable wages. It teaches work ethic.""

The Young Turks host Cenk Uygur breaks it down.

Thanks TYT for the text.

Still don't know the meaning of the term 'Fart Knocker' and not sure I want to find out.

I'm not sure you can actually embarrass Sarah Palin.

11. Agreed, you can't embarrass her. I was wondering if she was having brain-farts, maybe!

6. Wikipedia partially backs you up. There are male calicos, but most are sterile. How odd...

7. The color gene is on the X chromosome.

For both black and brown, the cat needs two X chromosomes. I believe male calicos have a rare XXY triplet chromosomal situation, which has other side effects.

The idea a 'migration of melanocytes and X-inactivation in the embryo' to the fur caused by one of the X chromosomes inside a female mammal shutting off,' 'dark, drumstick-shaped masses inside the nuclei of nerve cells of female cats, but not in male cats' and 'a condition referred to as XXY (Klinefelter's syndrome in males is something I'd've never imagined. Genetic studies must be fascinating work.

I am familiar with the challenges posed by Fragile X syndrome (FXS) as shown here:

But the picture above is the lovely Phoebe and of course a female. She looks quite healthy.
