The Bust of Palin---turn down the sound

[Lightning Rod]

Sarah Palin is not hard on the eyes. She's a handsome woman chosen no doubt for her resemblance to Jeena Davis who wasn't exactly the president but she played one on TV.

The camera loves Sarah Palin, but the microphone does not. Her voice sounds like a cross between Cindi Lauper and June Cleaver. It's a voice that you don't want to have waking you up in the morning. It's just irritating.

[Nazz]

Yezz

Someone stole my teevee
but I still have radio.. gawd what a squeak.
Doesn't match up well to the image at all..

[mtmynd]

The other night a friend of ours was over visiting and when the name Sarah Palin came up she says, "I can't stand her voice." Soo quickly agreed.

I felt in good company.

[Lightning Rod]

I think it resembles whatever that Gene Kelly movie was named about the silent film star with the terrible voice who couldn't make it in the talkies

they are keeping palin sequestered, not letting her talk to the press, only prepared statements. I don't think this is because of her voice, I think they are trying to hide a wealth of ignorance with silence.

They aren't going to let her make talkies.

[stilltrucking]

I lost interest.

Wake me up on the first tuesday morning of November, so I can go vote for Obama and hope for the best.

[stilltrucking]

I suppose the best Palin joke of all is that what ever they are going to do will work and she will be the vice president of the United States.

Yes the joke is on we the people

Like youze said it will still be a victory for the American people, she could not possibly be as bad as Dick Cheney> Right?

[hester_prynne]

female pit bull talkin....

[stilltrucking]

if not for you and doreen and the other women of studio eight I would have lost my faith in white women, the latest ABC poll is a bitch, they are running neck and neck
can you believe it
mostly due to a jump in McCain's support among white women after he picked Palin.



Oh well,
I am going to keep the faith, vote my little vote and hope the best man wins.

I am trying to remember if Hillary ever wore any pink pant suits.
I wonder how Palin looks in a pants suit?

"I suppose the best Palin joke of all is that what ever they are going to do will work and she will be the vice president of the United States."

I wouldn't be a defeatist quite so early, truck. The debates have yet to reveal any winner if the short history of aired debates are any clue -

1960 - Kennedy/Nixon
1980 - Reagan/Carter
1988 - Bush/Dukakis
1992 - Clinton/Bush
1996 - Clinton/Dole

2000 was Gore/Bush... a big surprise that Bush won the debate

Point is these listed debates clearly showed the weaknesses of the loser on the intimacy of the television... and the numbers that watch these debates was surprising - well over 50 million viewers on each debate.

Of course there is still the great Diebold question: have the problems ever been solved on those machines?

[stilltrucking]

Ten four on the Diebold Cecil, no talk about that, out of sight out of mind, like the real world,

what was name of that school in ancient Greece were they trained the sophists?

Defeatest?
Sheet man, I am an optimist or an idealist?

I think I will sleep okay who ever wins compadre, Clay could be right you know. It is a win win situation. Got to be better than Bush right? John McCain is an honorable white man, right?

[mtmynd]

Yeah... anyone is better than Bush, no doubt. If McCain wins it's akin to saying "I had cancer of the colon but things are better now - I have a tumor on my brain."

The Diebold problem really does bother me... as you said nobody has questioned them. Why is that? It should be of enormous importance. I'll bet you a nickle that Florida has not improved their machines a bit to this day.

I really shouldn't make a big deal over who really wins this or any election. I've always said America always gets what it deserves. But! when there are problems with the equipment we actually use to vote in the next President of our country and both parties skirt the problem... that bothers me more that all else.

There is another thing that I'm waiting for the press, or even the candidates to talk about - reversing the damage Bush has done with spying, torture and other suspicious activities. Does anyone out there really care?

Carry on...

[stilltrucking]

So much information coming at me, I been into the news again.
Hurricaine Ike and Fannie Mae
Freddie Mac
Banks folding eleven so far
Suicides among soldiers on the rise
Afghanistan sixty children died
but we killed thirty five terrorists

Meanwhile Israel is making deals that were off the table a year ago
French get Russia to back out of undisputed Georgian territory.

Diebold is a Republican not to worry, he is probably a white guy too.

Last I remember Maryland and few other states went back to paper trail for ballots cast.

That was the big issue, the machines easily hacked but Mr Diebold said there is no need to worry don't need no stinking paper trail for each votes cast.

And I feel like thunder chicken
So much information
I am going to start paying more attention to race in this election, the white race in particular.

Some of my dearest friends are strangers and good old boys drinking whiskey and rye, and this will be the day that I died.

Da Da
Oh Da Da
Ma Ma told me there would be days like this.

Defeatist

defeat ist connected to the ankle bone
the agony of des feat

I take this election very seriously
Too serious
I am working to empty my mind of all political opinions
I just want to watch the news

So much news
The English army won the war
And got their ass kicked in afghanistan
everybody gets their ass kicked in afghanistan
NATO too

So Clay
I am a high jacker tonight
so much news today
In the real world
this election just a side show for me
Cecil you did not mention the election of 2004, I was funking for months after Kerry lost. I thought it was going to be a cake walk.

The americun people get the government we deserve, or at least the best one that money can buy/

Speaking of the real world did you see Iraq signed a twenty billion deal with China to run their oil fields, the american and brits got a deal worth about a tenth of that.

Nothing to do with anything
except is this a great country or what
we spend thousands of lives and a trillion bucks to make the world safe for China
I am laughing my ass off

sheet

How old were you in 1960, I was one month short of being old enough to vote.

I hope the debates make a difference. I see they fired the anchor man for the first debate, it won't matter what happens in the debate as much as what the pundits say afterwards. It will be spun and spinned to sound byes and slogans.

MSNBC Drops Olbermann, Matthews as News Anchors

I hope the debates make a difference Cecil. Sure seems like the news media is bending over backwards to make them fair and balanced now that they got rid of those pesky liberals.

[hester_prynne]

McCain and Palin would be worse than Bush!!!!!
H

[stilltrucking]

At least as bad
which is almost as bad as it gets.
I just don't know hester
I mean I was so turned inside out after the 2004 election I just can't get my hopes up like that again. Even if McCain wins and croaks and Miss Pit Bull takes over, I think that the democrats will have such a lock on congress in the senate and the house they would have the three fifths and two third majorities they need to over ride vetoes, even impeach a president.

We going to stumble through this some how, we got to for the children's sake.

Man it's like deja vu all over again and again, where is Red Emma when we need her?

It is the same sheet going down
same sheet different century.

[mtmynd]

nobody's won and nobody's lost.

56 days to go then we'll know

until then... watch the world continue

on it's path of gigantic changes and stuff
