Helping People Choose Obama One Wink At A Time
(Sarah Palin)
picture: dunno source, via our lol builder. lol caption: LaurenV
I’m writing in Hillary.
… funny – looks like English to me.
WIN
He’s not writing at all I bet… I say he’s typing.
(…and I’m typing in colemak)
thats the smartest thing i’ve heard in 2 years………..
Write-in candidates have to be registered as write-in candidates. You go to your pollster and ask for the write-in list.
Even when you do that, Hillary won’t be on it. She withdrew long ago. Sorry.
Not so. Under US law, one can write in anyone’s name. That’s how Mickey Mouse gets so many votes every election.
Ya, I never understood why someone would waste their vote on Mickey Mouse, Homer Simpson, or Your Mom…..stupid if you ask me, why even bother to go vote and stand in line forever lol
It’s like going to vote in a state where the outcome is way obvious anyway.
I thought that was the results of Acorn.
Admiral Sir John – Actually that is a state thing. In some states write-ins are only allowed under certain conditions. e.g., a candidate has to announce he’s running as a write-in X number of weeks in advance. (Voting system fail)
If you write in Hillary thats a vote for McCain basically….Obama and Hillary represent and beleive in the same democratic values…You should still support your number one choice and follow her work in the US Senate , but where we’re at right now I think voting for Obama will do the most good for our country going forward
if you want socailism then vote obama!! food lines and gov runned lives. SOUNDS GREAT!!! we’ll be goose stepping chanting obama in no time!!
Obviously, winking just doesn’t come naturally to her. She had to make an effort to get that eye closed.
Phoney
Phoney
Phoney
Oh please.
Did McCain wink at the end of tonight’s debate? EW.
It’s not between her and Obama, is it? I’m pretty sure the Republican’s just decided to throw this election since they knew they wouldn’t have much of a chance winning because of Bush, it doesn’t make any sense otherwise. Maybe they just wanted to save someone competent like Romney for 2012 for when they are sure to win after the mess Obama will make.
I predict Obama is going to have a hard time getting re-elected. People have unrealistic expectations. They expect him to fix the country in 4 years? What happens if we end up in another war, or if he doesn’t immediately yank all our troops out of Iraq? What happens if the economy doesn’t improve? Its possible that all these things could occur, regardless of his best efforts.
His supporters are gonna turn on him like a pack of cannibals if he doesn’t live up to the hype.
Which, no offense to the guy, he more than likely won’t.
There is no way he will be able to get the troops out of Iraq in the timeframe he is talking about, it’s physically impossible because of the amount of equipment they will have to move. Plus we are going to be moving the troops into Afghanistan but that will be spun somehow to make it look like a good thing.
It is never a good thing. It is however, a necessary thing. After all, al-qaeda, operating under the protection of the Taliban, planned and executed an attack against the USA. After 7 years, the taliban has recouped some of their power and are actively working to return to power while continuing to work with al-qaeda. There is no spin involved, a foreign force protected by a foreign nation attacked the USA, this one is not a voluntary expeditionary operation.
Except the Bush Admin has already agreed to withdraw the troops, so it would surprise me if things got started before the Bush agreed upon date.
And don’t forget the Bush administration managed to screw up the economy bigtime, and all the voters are going to remember is that it “was so much better when Bush was president”.
I don’t know why everyone is blaming Bush for a bad economy. Where I live, the last eight years have been great! There is a building boom the likes of which hasn’t been seen in this town for close to 40 years. The local economy was crap under Clinton, and really crap under Carter (whose policies have been copied near verbatim by Obama). That’s why I keep saying if Obama wins, it’ll be welcome back to the 1970′s.
Where are you living? Canada?
Funny how the economy level was setting record highs until the Democrats took over Congress in 2006. Don’t forget the President’s position is mainly a figurehead and voice of the Nation. The real power is in Congress. You have a problem with the way things are going? Blame Congress first. They are the ones with their own agendas. They are the ones that tack on “give Congress members raises” sections onto unrelated bills. Funny thing is – technically they are employees of the American public – not out leaders. Somehow the general population has forgotten that. Makes me sad.
You are not the only one who is saddened by that. I explain that to people all the time. I think the problem lies with the people’s interest in politics and how well they are educated on the topic. I was sitting in my POLS class the other day and the prof asked how many people knew who our state senators were, myself plus two were the only ones… SENATORS for crying out loud!
That actually makes no sense. The reason the economy is skrewed up plain and simple is Bush’s deregulation. It just took a few years for the affects of irresponsible lending practices to take their toll. The way that sub-prime mortgages are structured, people can pay them for the first few years. After that the rates sky rocket and they are foreclosed on. A newly elected democratic congress could not have caused the deep seeded problems that you see in the economy now. It’s a complete misunderstanding of the situation and its severity to believe that that’s possible. Like it or not, irresponsible, deregulated lending practices got us where we are now and it’s gonna be while before we can pull out of it, just like it took us a while to get here.
also, the reason that it was at record highs in 2006 is because all of that irresponsibly lent money was propping up the economy, creating a bubble that had no basis in the real value of the economy and set us up for the disaster that we’re seeing now. You can’t send good jobs overseas and give everyone poorly paying jobs in the service industry and expect them to be able to afford the standard of living they had in a manufacturing based economy. The only way that people were able to afford homes was through bad lending. I hope now that you can see that this situation is actually quite complicated and we’ve been setting ourselves up for it for quite a while.
Obama’s supporters who have half a brain know that he will not be able
to solve all this country’s messes. They know it will take more than 4 years
and they won’t turn on him for it.
This isn’t rocket science for competent people.
But you’re assuming that Obama supporters HAVE half a brain
*running away amid the mortar shells*
I like how the talking point has moved from “Obama is going to have a hard time getting elected” to “Obama is going to have a hard time getting re-elected.”
This is America and Obama is black. You’d elect a Jack Russel terrier wearing an “I Love Nixon” boater as long as it was classified as white…
Why do you think ‘Redneck and proud’ is a watchword for the square states and places with a population less than a third of London (the one in England, which is that big aircraft carrier you have permanently moored just off the place you seem to call ‘Yooorp’)?
Me, I’m betting on the forthcoming Disney production ‘”Hot” Hockey Mom is VP!’, to be followed rapidly by “Hockey Mom is President Now the Old Guy is “Saved”‘ as opposed to Mel Brooks’ ‘Blazing Saddles: The White House Years’
TBH, from where I sit, I’d not trust one to use a toilet right. There again, I think the last person to go into a place of government with a pure motive was Guy Fawkes…
And she needs to drop the wink. It looks like she’s having an aneurysm. She should let the old guy look like he’s having a stroke
Wow, the Eurojingos are getting even more annoying.
Now see, that right there is the strongest argument I”ve heard for voting for Obama.
Odd, I hear the right talking about Palin more than McCain. Why would that be?
Because the right doesn’t care about McCain.
/Kanye
Well, the way we Dems ran our last two presidential campaigns didn’t make much sense to me. Not everything is a clever plan. Sometimes political parties just screw up.
I have to believe they’re smart somehow…
Now you’ll get smart and use voter fraud to win !
I don’t think we’d ever stoop to republican’s levels. But we may be smarter about watching them.
Even illegal aliens and the dead have the right to vote for me ! Give to ACORN !
I’m pretty sure the Republican’s just decided to throw this election since they knew they wouldn’t have much of a chance winning because of Bush, it doesn’t make any sense otherwise. Maybe they just wanted to save someone competent like Romney for 2012 for when they are sure to win after the mess Obama will make.
That was my thought (mutatis mutandis) in ’04 with the Media Machine running out Howard Dean and installing John Kerry as the nom. Or, to use a more heinous term: “Dukakising”
Nowhere is that first statement more true than here in Chautauqua County, New York. The place is festooned with Obama signs, and there is an Obama office right down the street from me, but there is not one McCain sign anywhere in this entire county, nor is there a Republican campaign office.
I feel so abandoned…
I can’t vote for Obama, but has any one noticed that McCain is such a weak selection that Obama still isn’t running against him? The Dems are running against Bush and Palin!! Conservatives rejected McCain in 2000, and now he’s all we got!! It’s between impotence and communism!! I wish the ticket were “Palin/ McCain”.
Two winking lols this close together? Come on PK, you’re slacking.
Socialist lols!
They are picking the ones they want us to see, what good is voting, I don’t even vote anymore…
Don’t forget to vote come November though, ema
Indeed!
I think there are still 2 to go…
Actually, it’s a nervous twitch and it happens so much nowadays that it’s hard to get a photo of her when she isn’t twitching, sometimes with both eyes!
Sorry it’s my fault, when I was banging her into oblivion I accidentally knocked her head into the bathroom wall. The twitch should subside in a few weeks.
It was worth it!
Thanks baby.
I need an adult! I NEED AN ADULT!
Too much Palin! Get that moronic harpy off the website, out of national politics, and back to the frozen wastes where she belongs!
Hey. Alaska isn’t frozen wastes. It’s an extremely beautiful state.
When it isn’t frozen.
…which is actually a good portion of the time….
Parts of it, I’m sure. But for her, I want frozen wastes.
They’re referring to her family members
Your gene pool was frozen over.
Well its easier to freeze when it’s so shallow.
I though Alaska was “beautiful virgin land ” when people want to drill for oil there ! Now it’s a “frozen wasteland”? Typical liberal hypocrisy.
Its only a frozen wasteland where people live, apparently. If only cute furry animals live there its a pristine wilderness.
In a creepy way, you might just be right with that sarcasm.
And that’s what humans do to things. Congratulations, you understand.
Okay, what is UP with her and the freaking BLINKING?! That is annoying the shite out of me.
Well, if she’s blinking, she’s lubricating her eyes. WINKING, on the other hand………well, she’s just trying to pull in horny undecideds
Sure you do. You just have to make sure you give it a fake phone number
Sooo, this number is FAKE!!!
You shag crazy, you marry stable.
O_O………..
I shag a crazy girl who keeps me stable. What does that mean?
I was all for McCain until he chose this chick…
choosing VP for no reason other than she’s got ta-ta’s = fail.
So, whats a gal to do when she doesn’t like either candidate?
Drink… that’s what.
Vote for a third party or write someone in that you like.
haha, Ralph Wiggam for Prez!
I know, I know… Times like these I thank all that is Holy that the worst that can happen is another 8 years of playing the devil’s advocate
Vote for me. I will bring sexy back… Or at least kink. I will put qualified people into office to get all the work done while I play mouthpiece. Then I will beat them if they screw up. I shall motivate America again… THROUGH BEATINGS!!!
which will continue until morale improves I’m sure.
99% of America could use a good old fashioned beating…
I need more exercise and I am glad the American people can help me get it by deserving to be beaten. I might do some beatings on the side after morale improves.
Good old fashioned parenting rule of thumb: beat them everyday whether they need it or not… builds charactor.
>.>
As an avid gamer, I have other ways to teach my son how to build characters.
Though I might beat him on principle.
oh lord…
>.>
<.<
immagamertoo(gowow)
*cough* that was weird.
wow is soooo last month.
GO WAR!!!
Meh, I’m old school. No PvP will ever measure up to Ultima Online, so PvE is all I can really do!
UO was NOT PvP… it was a mad gankfest orgy of the likes that ROn Jeremy would say… “No thanks… its too sticky, hot, and annoying in that mess.”
oh god … I just said go war …
I suddenly feel the need to hug a tree or something
Rephrase then. Waaaaagh!
I forgive you jelly.
Lolnathan: PVP gets annoying in any game as it ends up being the same builds over and over. So I agree. I would rather lead a team into a nasty and horrible dungeon and come out with low casualties. Now I am remembering my summoner necro from Diablo 2. Good times.
Summoner Necros from D2… training future presidents to use
their underlings appropriately since 2000.
Oooooh ya… Curse your enemies, send in the flunkies, animate the fallen. God I will be an awesome president.
Well, you got my vote.
*shakes your hand and kisses your baby, then beats your neighbor* Thank you, God Bless or if you prefer, Joe Bless.
Mickey Mouse for PRESIDENT!
“So, whats a gal to do when she doesn’t like either candidate?”
It depends. If you want to send the message that you don’t care then stay home. If you want to send the message that you do care but don’t like the choices, vote for a third-party candidate or write in someone.
Third party candidates, 2008:
Ralph Nader–Independent or Peace and Freedom Party (depending on the state in which you vote)
Bob Barr–Libertarian Party
Charles O. Baldwin–Constitution Party
Cynthia McKinney–Green Party
Alan Keyes–America’s Independent Party
Charles Jay–Boston Tea Party (Is this for real??)
Gene Amondson–Prohibition Party
Ted Weill–Reform Party
Gloria La Riva–Party for Socialism and Liberation
Brian Moore–Socialist Party USA
Roger Calero–Socialist Workers Party
Boston Tea Party?! Yes!!!!
In case you didn’t notice, it was a joke ahole.
I detest people who are of legal voting age who stay home, those same lazy sh!ts are the one’s doing the most bitching. I will vote, I just don’t LIKE either candidate, I’ll have to eventually pick one of the two evils.
ema, you might have forgotten that there are actually terrorists in Afghanistan, but I guess that doesn’t matter. Is oil so cheap that you have forgotten about 9/11?
I know there are, that’s why I won’t vote for Obama because I don’t believe he will really address the problem with the strength and decisiveness that it needs. Sure he is yelling about it now because he wants to shame the Bush Administration and get elected. If and when he gets in I don’t have any confidence in him making the right moves there. Oil is cheap?
I don’t suspect he could do any worse than the current administration has. John McCain’s war record is so bad that he probably couldn’t fight his way out of a paper bag with an armored division.
If you doubt me on this, check out the article at http://www.rollingstone.com/news/coverstory/make_believe_maverick_the_real_john_mccain/page/1
I am afraid that Rolling Stones is a bit biased though I don’t doubt the accounts. However, I would request that a less biased source be presented.
It seemed very thorough to me. I don’t have ten pages worth of corroborating links, though. The article will have to stand or fall on its own.
In true PK tradition, those with an interest in believing it will believe it, and those with an interest in disbelieving it will do so.
Very true and duly noted. Thank you.
People said the same thing about Bush, but McCain is so damn old and senile we will be sending our troops to Easter Island in no time.
Oh for fugg’s sake, can we stop talking about 9/11 and terrorists already? $hit happens. Let’s all get over it now.
Fun facts:
Way more Americans die from food poisoning every year than have been killed by terrorists ever.
Most years, more Americans are killed in botched religious ceremonies (mostly exorcisms and snake handling) than are killed by terrorists.
The number of Americans killed by terrorists in my lifetime is about the same as the number of Americans killed by lightning.
Can I just say, for the record, I love the phrase “killed in botched regigious ceremonies”. I can just picture this conversation. “I’m so sorry about your Grandfather, was he sick for a long time?” “No, he was killed in a botched religious ceremony.”
Damn it, religious, not regigious. Regigious is probably something Quagmire would participate in.
LOL! Regigidity! He would be a high priest I think.
Yeah, and they would get the communion at the Fuzzy Clam.
And penance for your sins would take on a whole new meaning.
That’s hot.
… I now have a new game to play at home with my girl tonight. O_O
Glad my typo could be of assistance.
I will spare you details.
Just curious, where do you draw the line at the number of deaths its okay to ignore?
Don’t be silly, everyone knows it’s 5 and a quarter.
Well I was confused because I thought with the weakening dollar American lives might be worth less and the numbers might have changed, cut me some slack!!
thought with the weakening dollar American lives might be worth less
Funny story: the EPA puts a dollar value on human life. That way they can make a firm comparison on whether any given regulation will cost more money than the value of the people it saves. New reg saves seventy five million in human death per year but costs one hundred million per? No way!
So anyway, this value was reduced this year by about 15%. Doesn’t make me happy.
That’s true, but if we ignore terrorism, the amount of people killed will continue to increase. That’s where it would differ from your examples.
Also, terrorists are taking lives on purpose. They’re killers. We’re not letting murderers mosey on down the street, are we?
(God, I hope not. Please don’t say we are. Are we?)
And since when do only Americans count? We’re all living in the same world. Of course a terrorist attack hits much, much closer to home when Americans are involved, but are people saying they really couldn’t care less about dozens of non-Americans killed in terrorist attacks? It’s one of the things I’m proud of as an American, that we help other countries, countries that are less lucky and free than we are.
I think they meant that terrorism is not a big deal. It’s the Democratic motto. “so what that 3000 Americans died? Americans die every day. Get over it!”
That’s okay though, the fires of 9-11 still burn in Texas! and as long as one Texan draws breath, they will never die.
tell that to the people who lost a loved one to the direct attack on the USA by a foreign force.
Who are you? Rudy Guilliani?
No, I would have voted for him though…
According to Palin there are terrorists in this race. Gotta love how she incites the violent responses each time and doesn’t try to quell them at all or avoid them next rally. You have her and McCain whipping the crowds into frenzies where shouting “Terrorist” and “Kill Him” about Obama is cheered and laughed at.
There are unstable people out there that WILL try to act on crap like that. I am not trying to say McCain or Palin want people to try to kill Obama but they aren’t frowning on the people at their rallies who are suggesting it. And they aren’t cutting those lines of the stump speeches that provoke the response.
That is dangerously irresponsible.
Yeah their current strategy of “Oh, Obama is actually Osama Bin Laden in disguise” is pretty lame.
Shhhhh!
It smacks of desperation, but I think it’s becoming more and more obvious that McCain won’t win.
I agree. I think Palin and McCain have a responsibility there that they’re not taking. They’re starting to lose me with their constant attacks. Not that they actually HAD me, but I was on the fence, and now I’m leaning towards the Dems.
They’re just trying to distract the voters from the financial crisis, and boy, will that ever not fly.
She just does NOT have a face for winking… *shudder*
That is definitely the worst picture I’ve ever seen of her…
Very manish.
Mavricks
Really…all I can say is… WIN WIN WIN!
“Nucular”- I cringe when I type it
“*wink*”- …ew
“Theenks, but noh theenks”- annoying
“…not from the White House…”- Who wants an inexperienced soccer mom in office?
Win.
Joe Six-Pack.
Now I’m thirsty for a six pack of Guinness bottles, thanks jerk.
;_;
This joe needed a twelve pack to wash away the memories of that.
(Which I didn’t get, which is why I still cringe when I hear “You betcha”)
I thought guinness came in four packs. Oh wait, bottles NVM.
Yeah the bottles with those annoying bits of plastic in them. Still good though.
Thank the “Soccer mom”! ;]
“I predict Obama is going to have a hard time getting re-elected. People have unrealistic expectations. [...]
His supporters are gonna turn on him like a pack of cannibals if he doesn’t live up to the hype.”
I don’t think so. Most people are well aware of the utter devastation eight long years have wreaked on this country — on our economy, our military, our reputation in the world. People don’t expect Obama to it up in four years any more than they expected FDR to do it in four years when they elected him in 1932. The country was still in Depression in 1936; yet FDR was re-elected. People felt he had given the country hope and movement. Anyway — who do the Republicans have for 2012 who’s going to look like he (or she) is competent to do the job? Sarah Palin? You jest.
ANYONE else thinking Lucille on Arrested Development?
And I suppose one of the newest lol’s will be about McCain’s use of “That Guy”. That’s the bug topic buzzing around Twitter right now anyway. If it is, then this site really has degraded.
You mean “That One”? I missed McCain saying that – sounds like a big mistake on his part… rats. I couldn’t even watch the whole thing.
It would have been a less damning moment if he followed the reference to Obama as “That One” with the reference to himself as “This Guy”.
As in: “Who voted on [Anti-Obama Talking Point #35]? That one. Who has two thumbs and voted on [Pro-McCain Talking Point #48]? This guy.”
You slay me!
*marks down the XP and proceeds to search the body for gold*
This is what a pit bull with lipstick looks like.
I think that would be Hillary .
Because Hilary was the one that made that statement? No.
I was making a joke, because it looks like Palin is growling, like a dog was and she has been known to say, “What’s the difference between a pit bull and a hockey mom? Lipstick.”
WIN!!! Well not a win for her campaign but a definite win on the caption!
If I have to see her wink one more time or give another “SHOUT OUT” or if I have to hear McCain talk about his service to his country (not that I am dissing it … took a lot to do what he got thru but do you have any thing ELSE to talk about? I was in the military myself so I am very pro-troops) and talking about “having a steady hand on the tiller” I am gonna lose it.
Funny……….his problem has always been that he never mentions it. EVER. Those around him have to do it for him. And I thought the left was saying that a Vietnam vet was the ONLY person qualified to be the president?
Too bad there isn’t another VP debate. I was going to play the palinism drinking game. Every time she says you betcha, you’re darn right, hockey mom, joe six pack or winks, you take a shot.
Conservabots must give the illusion of humanity by blinking.
her face looks contorted.
