Sarah Gets ANOTHER Smackdown


I love a first.
First date.
First kiss.
First in line.

First..........time Sarah Palin gets a smackdown from her own state. Apparently even Alaska doesn't seem to like her so much.

Sarah Palin got the beatdown as the Alaska Senate and House for the first time in Alaska history rejected a governor's nominee for attorney general nominee.

That nominee, who will never be, is Anthony Wayne Ross--whose initials," WAR," graced his license plate, while his wife's plates proudly proclaim "MRS WAR." He has steadfastly refused to disavow his statements that gays are "degenerates" and "immoral" and he'd called abortion "killing kids," among other things.

And now, this, from the down-turned mouth of Governor Soon-To-Be-A-Footnote-In-History Sarah Palin:

"I believed I knew what Alaskans wanted when I selected an individual who is a strong backer of Second Amendment rights, a staunch supporter of the state Constitution and a defender of life. I'm surprised that legislators in this case really did not seem to represent their constituents and allowed themselves to be swayed by side issues."

Side issues like gay equality and abortion rights.

And yet it seems that those who smacked Little Sarah on the snout were Democrats who had previously worked with her, and members of her own party who are sick and tired of seeing Sarah Palin posturing for national office, supporting wingnuts and not accomplishing anything for her state.

Sarah's been a busy little bee, Building A Future To Nowhere.

And, oddly enough, even as the news came down that her nominee would forever and always be just a nominee, Governor Palin wasn't even in Alaska. She was in Indiana, speaking to an antiabortion group! So, while she picked the man, and supported the man, she can't be bothered to stay home while the legislature of Alaska voted No to the man.

Sarah Palin doesn't give a rat's ass for her own state if there are bigger fish to fry elsewhere.

Send Sarah Into A Snowbank!

  2. Side issues??? SIDE ISSUES?!
    Looking back over my life I can't remember a time when a gun was important to our household. I can remember friends having abortions and gay family members and friends - being waaaaay more prevalent in our lives.

  4. I hadn't heard about this yet. Eeeeeexcellent! What I find telling is that she said she thought that she knew what Alaskans wanted. Bullshit. She's been TELLING people what she thinks they should want. Apparently, the governor's races in Alaska were always fairly civil, focusing on economic and state issues...until Sarah came along and decided to turn it into a culture war, Us vs Them, and that's still her tactic. I've read that she didn't care who she stepped on or who she stabbed in the back, as long as she won and got what she wanted.

    Sounds like those chickens are coming home to roost.

    When she was in Indiana the other night, Ken heard a snippet on the news, and asked with horror, "She's HERE?!" He thought she was in South Bend because of the brouhaha over President Obama speaking at Notre Dame's commencement! I reassured him that she was hundreds of miles away, downstate. I think we both slept a little easier that night. :)

    SSIS!
