Larry King last night - said Palin was strong; she sold a plane on EBay |
|
It was absolutely surreal. Carville held up a picture of the town hall - said it looked like a bait shop. When the Repub legislator (a woman, of course) argued that Palin was strong and as evidence mentioned that she'd sold a state plane on EBay, I about choked on my spit. The panel debated her qualifications (or lack thereof) while the TV audience was subjected to a montage of Palin "AKA Ironwoman" videos of her holding & shooting some mega monster looking gun & walking in the desert surrounded by guys in cammo. Anyone else as stunned by this panel discussion as I was? Is there another thread on this?

1. Here we go with this again ... Larry King did not say that ... the GOP spinner did |
|
Just like CNN didn't say what was reported yesterday. Somebody on it did.
It doesn't help give this garbage veracity by trying to put it in media figures' mouths. People know bullshit when they hear it. At least Democrats do.

It'll be off the page by the time I edit it. Geez! If I spent my time critiquing every thread title, I'd never get to read any of them.

6. You're a non-member -- when I see posts like this, I think "troll" |
|
There is the tendency for trolls to come in and post things like this with a deceptive subject line. That was my point.

10. I thought you'd been around awhile but there have been so many near-fake member names |
|
I'm glad it's you, though.

11. The Ebay-Jet story is a LIE also |
|
That plane never sold. It was listed on ebay, but never sold. It didn't meet the reserve. Its not really anything to take pride in. http://www.tamebay.com/2007/01/reserve-not-met-on-alaskan-state-jet.htmlso there's another freaking lie.

12. Hope you don't mind - I posted your journal entry to the video thread . . . |
|
like you said, it's really nothing in and of itself, but when added to the already mammoth, stinking pile - it means everything.
