For some odd reason, Sarah Palin causes liberal elites to rabidly foam at the mouth. Professor William Jacobson of the blog Legal Insurrection wrote an insightful piece about how conservatives seem to reflexively defend Palin, because liberals seem to be perpetually attacking her. Furthermore, not only do liberals seem to revel in finding weird reasons to attack Sarah Palin, but they also seem to only be happy when they are attacking her family as well (probably because they see them as little “spawns of Sarah”). Now, why is this? I haven’t a clue. However, I can state beyond a reasonable doubt that it’s not helping them. For example, a couple of days ago, comediennes Kathy Griffin and Margret Cho both attacked Bristol Palin as “fat”–although Cho was a little more subtle about it than Griffin was. (Robert Stacy McCain wrote an excellent piece about both incidents here.) In fact, Griffin was dumb enough to trash Bristol Palin and refer to her as “the white Precious” in front of a group of servicemen who promptly booed her. Question–does Ms. Griffin not know her audience at all? These are not liberal elites, like Bill Maher, who think that it’s OK to call Bristol Palin a “Hillbilly Heroine”. These are US soldiers who won’t find calling someone’s twenty year old daughter “fat” at all funny. Moreover, a few weeks ago comedienne Sandra Bernhard called Bristol Palin a “hooker” on Joy Behar’s show because she placed in the finals on Dancing With the Stars. (Ms. Behar seemed very distressed, herself, and said that “Fred and Ginger died last night”.) Surprising to say, Behar and Bernhard weren’t the only liberals to get so wee-weed up over Bristol Palin making it to the finals on Dancing With the Stars. Washington Post columnist, Sally Quinn, wrote a long piece about how her head was about to explode because Bristol Palin made it to the finals of Dancing With the Stars. Ann Althouse best described Quinn’s disingenuous hyperventilating when she wrote the following: And this strangely sanctimonious journalist — she’s writing in the always awful “On Faith” section of The Washington Post — condemns Palin voters for “cheating” 7 paragraphs after she confesses to doing something that is at least as much cheating as what the Palin fans are said to be doing. “Not only that, but I vote. Under the show’s rules, you’re allowed to vote five times on one line. I have six lines at home and my cell, so I vote as many times as I can for my favorite. “ So this lady, this longtime Washington powerbroker, has 6 phone lines, and she maxes each line out, each week, voting 30 times. But that’s the show’s rules. They can’t tell how many individuals vote are voting. They can only see phone numbers. So if your family of 5 watches the show and you — you economic losers — only have one phone, you can make 5 calls. Sally Quinn happens to have 6 phone lines, so she gets 30 votes — under the rules. “Commenters on the conservative blog Hillbuzz.org said they had figured out how to enter more votes than the rules allow by creating fake e-mail addresses. One person posting on Hillbuzz said “Lord have mercy, I voted for three hours online! I got 300 in.” What is a “fake e-mail address”? The rules say you are allowed 5 votes from each email address, just as you are allowed 5 votes from each phone number. Some people have multiple phone numbers and some have multiple email addresses. What’s the difference? All I can think of is that you have to spend money to have multiple phone numbers, and you can get multiple email accounts free. It feels so right for rich folk to get more. I love when liberals slip up like that. Question–hey Lefties, first of all, you have to know that calling Bristol Palin a “fat hooker” is not a good way to win friends and influence people, right? I mean, Bristol Palin probably wears a size six or a size eight–most American women wear a size ten (Marilyn Monroe wore a size twelve). Do you really think that calling the majority of American women “fat” is a winning strategy for you? Second of all, you guys do realize that this is just a television show and that normal people don’t freak out or want to shoot the TV because Bristol Palin won, right? Full disclosure here–I’ve never seen an episode of Dancing With the Stars (I’ve watched clips on YouTube), but if one of the Obama girls happen to make it to the finals in a few years, I would be quite happy for her (even if she wasn’t that great of a dancer). Now, having your head explode over Bristol Palin making it to the finals on Dancing With the Stars is not the only symptom of Palin Derangement Syndrome–apparently, Sarah Palin’s Facebook postings are enough to give a lot of liberals the vapors. For instance, Andrew Sullivan recently wrote a piece whining about Sarah Palin mocking Barack Obama’s famous “57 states gaffe”, and accused her of “trashy behavior” (but, he didn’t say what was “trashy” about her behavior). [Hey Andrew, by "trashy behavior", do you mean spreading internet rumors that a woman's baby is not really her own, and is that of her teenage daughter? Because that would be you Andrew, not Sarah Palin. But, I digress.] Well, if Sullivan had any sense of humor at all, he would have written that Palin’s Facebook post was funny and admitted that she had a point that the media tends to give Obama a pass on his gaffes, but tends to hammer everyone else on theirs (as even SNL pointed out during the Democratic primary). Normal people like people who can laugh at themselves and respond very well to self-deprecating humor. However, Sullivan was not only upset by Sarah Palin’s recent Facebook post, but her daughter Willow’s as well (where she gets involved with trash-talk with another teenager when she defends her sister Bristol). First of all, does Sullivan realize that Willow Palin is a sixteen year old girl, and that normal Americans find it to be very strange and distasteful when grown men pick on other people’s children? Even Jon Stewart told liberals to back off and to “stop making me feel sorry for the Palins”. Second of all, does Sullivan realize how weird it is to obsess over Sarah Palin and her family’s Facebook postings? I mean, Sarah Palin was only a vice-presidential nominee –she was never even the vice-president. You don’t see us conservatives obsessing over Joe Leiberman’s or John Edward’s Facebook postings, much less their kids Facebook postings. This is very strange behavior. I would suggest that if reading the Palin family’s Facebook postings upsets you so much, then stop reading them. Finally, speaking of weird behavior, Charles Blow recently wrote a column about how he wasn’t going to talk about Sarah Palin anymore, but then spent the entire column writing about how much Sarah Palin sucks. Hey Charles, I thought that you said that you weren’t going to talk about Sarah Palin anymore? You see, if most people say that they aren’t going to talk about someone anymore, then they just don’t talk about them anymore–they don’t proceed to, then, write an entire column about how terrible the person is. In fact, this column of Blow’s is almost as weird as Keith Olbermann naming Bristol Palin his “Worst Person in the World”, or Aaron Sorkin comparing Sarah Palin to Michael Vick for hunting a Caribou. (I’m sure that the millions of hunters all across America deeply appreciate that comparison.) Oh, and Keith, really???!! Bristol Palin is your “Worst Person in the World”? Not Kim Jong-Il, not Ahmadinajad, but Bristol Palin for discussing abstinence?! No, that’s not at all strange to most Americans. (Rolls eyes.) So, in conclusion, this whole Palin Derangement Syndrome definitely hurt the Left during the past mid-term election, and is continuing to hurt them now. Why? Well, for two obvious reasons. First of all, during the last election, it appeared as if liberals were spending way too much time speaking out against the Palins (none of whom were on the ballot), and not enough time explaining why people should vote for Obama’s policies and liberal candidates. Throughout the previous election, PDS proved to be a huge distraction for the Left. Second of all, constantly attacking someone’s children as “fat, trashy, hookers” seems, well, quite mean to normal, well-adjusted Americans who aren’t weirdos. Most Americans think that mean people suck and don’t want to vote for a party that seems to embrace nastiness. Hey, you can listen to me, or you can continue smacking around Sarah Palin and her kids. The choice is yours. However, I just have one question for you guys. How did that PDS work out for you in the last election?

Rush Limbaugh calling 13 year old Chelsea Clinton the White House dog comes to mind.
Merchants have no country. The mere spot they stand on does not constitute so strong an attachment as that from which they draw their gains. Thomas Jefferson
McCain attacked Clinton's daughter, and others have routinely attacked Obama's kids.
BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA She failed to carry her own weapon, relying on her elderly father and his companion, Steve, to lug it around. When a beast eventually wandered into range, Ms Palin left Chuck Snr to load the rifle, and discharge spent bullet casings. "What a joke," wrote one viewer on Palin's Facebook page. "I was a fan before the show. No one who is a true hunter lets others carry their rifle or can't load their own shells. Sarah, you are a phony." The Awl, a website which collated reactions to the episode, noted that, while being passed the firearm, Ms Palin immediately moved her finger inside its trigger guard, a breach of basic safety rules. After missing the caribou several times, she then appeared to panic and shot at the beast while it was still moving, a technique usually avoided by all but the very best marksmen. On leaving her hunting camp one morning, Ms Palin pointed to the horizon and declared "Let's go west." There followed an awkward pause. "That's east," noted her father. The cognoscenti was meanwhile perturbed that the fact that Palin seemed scared by her weapon, a small gun described by Chuck Snr as a "varmint rifle". Several times during the episode, she anxiously asked: "Does it kick?" "What kind of a question is that?" wrote a fan called Brad Schegel on Palin's Facebook wall. "Doesn't matter if it kicks or not, you shoot it the same. That was a girly question, momma griz."
LMFAO That a Feminist dig? Sex is great. OMFGPalin is Obama's Survival Companion of choice.
I watched that segment on youtube. LOLOL!
Calls into question Everything about her. See Cheney's 'bird hunt' for details. 8D
What I want to know is did they drug the caribou so it just stood there while she tried to shoot it? Dick Cheney might move up from shooting caged birds if this is the way teabaggers hunt.
I think they found a deaf one and doped him up.
There's a Looooong list of pols proving their hunting creds. Kerry Goes Hunting for Conservative Votes (Kerry Admits Today "I'm ... 51 posts - 41 authors - Last post: Oct 21, 2004 He admits he is TOO LAZY to carry out his own bird? .... He will alienate ... www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1252201/posts And out in West Texas, the problem is getting the animals to move out of the cage.
Kerry, Biden, Palin, and O'Donnell. These people ought to be working in a traveling circus, not national politics. What a total embarrassment to the country they are. I could add more names, of course, but I don't feel like typing for the next hour.
In these tough times, the entertainment value is precious.
He never actually did that, and the incident you speak of happened one time, and Limbaugh said he actually regretted that what happened did, and you want to compare that to the nonstop and frankly puzzling constant trivial bashing of Palin and her whole family by the leftards.
If you could ever get you head out of your ass, you'd note that it isn't just the "leftards" that are bashing Palin. Quite a few "rightards" are doing it as well.
GOP 2004 Presidential Nominee John McCain: "Why is Chelsea Clinton so ugly? Because her father is Janet Reno." With respect to Limbaugh, your facts are off, as Molly Ivins reported in 1995: And from the Glen Beck radio show, May 27, 2010: just wait until the constant whining when her opponents criticize her during the primaries in 2012.
I know what happened and he never actually "called" her the WH dog. When viewers objected, he claimed, in typical Limbaugh fashion, that the gag was an accident and that without his permission some technician had put up the picture of Chelsea. And what evidence do you have that is not correct?
No, just leftards like you who won't admit what they really are.
You're flat out wrong, Eric. Take five minutes to do a search.
How's the Gulf Coast evacuation progressing, mcclown? What is the death toll now? Has it surpassed the million mark yet?
Have you two morons ever hunted for anything besides food in a dumpster?
...or anywhere outside of a gay nightclub?
Obama's first all-by-his-lonesome budget, btw, calls for a $1.17 trillion deficit.
Those two, skidmark and mcclown, probably wear matching outfits!

Okay, so Rush only did one time what never happened and then he regretted what he never did... Seems that Hillary Clinton was bashed for 8 years during her husbands presidency and then for the following eight years during Bush's - everything from fat thighs to murder as I recall.

Did they show you their "Tea Party" membership IDs, mustelid?
Can you say Hillarycare?
Heh, you mean there is a Tea Party membership ID? Does it come with an offer for discounted tupperware on the back?
Good thing Conservatives have never attacked Michelle.
I have no idea, but how else can you be sure tey are "Tea Party members"? You aren't one of those progressive wingnuts that believe everthing that is on youtube, are you?
All I hear you say is you don't accept someone as a tea party dude or dudette unless you like them. Which in light of much of the bigotry generally found in the partying tea flea set, you are quite in character in this operational modus.
Now you think you are hearing things! The DTs can be quite dangerous, mustilid.
I thought her name was Manchelle. Isn't that what most people here call her?
Heh. Yeah; and big surprise that the comment you quote is in reference to the forum shit parrot. Which is of course, you.
You're the one fouling the site, mustilid.
And you do know how to use the kill file function, so why whine? Besides the reason that is all you know how to do; whine or insult.
I'm not like so many liberal, progressive pussies that filter those with whom they disagree, mustilid.
Nor do you involved yourself with meaningful discourse with anyone you don't like or disagree with. You are here only to attempt to bait and/or bother. We do agree on one thing here though, I have nobody on my kill file list either; in any of these forums.
Meaningful discourse with vile, hateful, sniping, lying, liberal assholes? Yeah, tell me all about "meaningful discourse"!
Go do a search on eLPee, Yukon. Whenever you were civil, so was I. You get as good as you give. Don't blame me if you want to stay dizzy from chasing your tail imagining anyone not of your political and social stripe can be civil to you. Your problem is entirely self inflicted. I served many years in the U.S. Army with many conservatives and some of them were dear friends. Some still are in fact. You reap what you sow.
I could add more names, of course, but I don't feel like typing for the next hour. Rich lying scum bags who know we know the truth and they don't care. Sounds like France 1789 to me. ;}

On his TV show, early in the Clinton administration, Limbaugh put up a picture of Socks, the White House cat, and asked, 'Did you know there's a White House dog?' Then he put up a picture of Chelsea Clinton, who was 13 years old at the time and as far as I know had never done any harm to anyone.
When viewers objected, he claimed, in typical Limbaugh fashion, that the gag was an accident and that without his permission some technician had put up the picture of Chelsea.
Obama remarked yesterday during his press conference that Malia asked him of the Gulf oil spill: "Did you plug the hole yet, Daddy?" Beck, taking off on this, mockingly affected Malia's voice, asking "Daddy" why he "hates black people so much." Then Beck attacked Malia's intelligence, saying: "That's the level of their education, that they're coming to -- they're coming to Daddy and saying, 'Daddy, did you plug the hole yet?' "
