Im Just Stunned – Palin On ABC News September 13, 2008

Actually I want I’m not just stunned, I’m physically ill.

My aunt called me and said “I just wanted to let you  know that Charlie Gibson is going to interview Sarah Palin on ABC News at 6:30″.

“Why are you telling me this?” I asked.  “Just to let you know that I’m not going to watch it” she said.

Translation – “You watch it and tell me about how much she sounds like Satan.”

“I’m not going to watch her, you watch her”  I told her in no uncertain terms.

“I’m 83 years old and my heart can’t take it” she said.  I can’t believe she pulled out that argument, she never does that.

So I grudgingly turned it on so I could report back.

It was a sham.  Charlie performed well, he thought he was believable.  She will never get an Academy Award.  She is aggressive, arrogant  and a mimic.  I’ve heard parrots deliver more convincingly.

I lasted three minutes and then I turned the tv off.

I’m sick to my stomach, not only at the lies and tripe she was parroting, peppered with buzz phrases  like “weapons of mass destruction”. But also the very idea they have,  that the entire citizenry will fall for this dog and pony show.

Aunt Romayne I love you.  You raised me and taught me so much, but I couldn’t do it, even for you.

I’ll print you out a transcript so you can read it for yourself, I’m weak and now  I have a sick headache.

Oh goddess, iif we don’t start working our butts off to defeat this manifestation of evil, we are so screwed.

 

 

 

 

This Is What I Did Yesterday – For Obama September 13, 2008

This morning, I woke up angry about what the McCain/Palin Liars Club has been putting out there.

Not only have they been lying about Obama, but now they’re lying about themselves and some people believe it because of the massive advertising campaign he’s been able to launch.

If I truly want to see Obama/Biden win – keep my country free and strong – I have to put my money where my mouth is.

Without going into a lot of details, let me just say that I’m on a very low fixed income.  It’s a couple hundred over $500.00. 

I sent Obama $10.00 today.  Not much but truly all I can. 

Then I got on the phone.  I called my kids, my aunt and my friends and asked them to send $10.00 because if I could find it in my wallet, they can too. 

So far my tally is $110.00,  that I know of.  That’s just me, making 8 calls this morning. 

I sent my motor mouth queen out to fund raise, one on one. Also asked everyone to call their friends and ask for the same.  Who can’t send $10.00?  Truly – $10.00.

If one of my friends can afford $25.00 or more, I asked if they could send that.  But all I asked them to do was commit to $10.00 – and it worked.

I hope everyone of the people I asked will let me know if they got others to do this. 

I wonder how much I can raise today.

Truly people should put their money where their mouth is.

By 11:00 p.m. my total was $731.00 with more promised to be sent to Obama in the next two weeks.

I’m pretty damn happy with that.

 

 

 

 

The Replacement Vagina September 6, 2008

Since women are so sought after and venerated because of our genitals, I would like to throw mine into the ring.

Pitching em in to be a Vice President.

I have a vagina, I’ve been an executive.  I could learn how to be Baconian. It seems to be the new thing.

Nominate me and I guarantee that I’ll learn how to shoot a gun and ruin National Park lands.

Maybe I’ll build condos at the Grand Canyon or divert Niagara Falls for my hot tub.

Get out there and campaign for a change.
