Tori Amos: "I'll Run for President if Sarah Palin Does"

http://www.metro.co.uk/showbiz/interviews/806847-tori-amos-ill-run-for-president-if-sarah-palin-does

Ya know I'm starting to LIKE Dave Letterman!

Maybe Palin should remember her running mate's joke from 1998 when Chelsea was still a kid? Not to mention Blimpo oxy-RU$H Limpnoodle's crack about Chelsea being the OTHER White House dog or whatever it exactly was!!! When Bill was in office, it was one goddamn disgusting vile putrid crack on Chelsea after another by these fuckhead repukes. THE FAMILY VALUES PARTY, huh?! Oh yee GOP, Hypocrisy is thy middle name! NOT to excuse Mr. Letterman, but it doth seemeth like a double standard to mio!

A joke too bad to print?

HOW SEN. JOHN McCAIN'S TASTELESS TWO-LINER ABOUT CHELSEA CLINTON AND JANET RENO WAS CENSORED OUT OF THE NATION'S LEADING NEWSPAPERS.
- - - - - - - - - - - -
BY DAVID CORN

During the last few months, many established media outlets have decided to report innuendo and rumor about the Clinton-Lewinsky scandal, as long as they have a source they can cite (at least anonymously), or another media player has reported the same.

But this new standard in the practice of journalism seemingly does not extend to other political figures, at least not media darlings like Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz. Earlier this month, at a Republican Senate fund-raiser, McCain told a downright nasty joke making fun of Janet Reno, Hillary Rodham Clinton and Chelsea Clinton.

The fact that McCain had made the tasteless joke was reported in major newspapers, as was the vain attempt by his press secretary to initially deny what McCain had done. But in several major newspapers, the joke itself was kept a secret. When McCain subsequently apologized to President Clinton, the Washington Post, in its personality section, noted the apology but said the joke "was too vicious to print."

The Los Angeles Times, in its Life & Style section, provided an oblique rendering of the joke that did not fully convey its ugliness. When Maureen Dowd penned a column in the New York Times about the joke, she wrote that McCain "is so revered by the press that his disgusting jape was largely nudged under the rug." But Dowd chose not to relay the joke, either.

The joke did appear in McCain's hometown paper, the Arizona Republic, and the Associated Press did report the joke in full, so everyone in the press had access to McCain's words. But by censoring themselves, the Post, the Times and others helped McCain deflect flak and preserved his status as a Republican presidential contender.

Salon feels its readers deserve the unadulterated truth. Though no tape of McCain's quip has yet emerged, this is what he reportedly said:

"Why is Chelsea Clinton so ugly?
Because her father is Janet Reno."

The joke may be crude, but it pales in comparison with the published details surrounding the presidential sex scandal. McCain's two-liner conveys some interesting insights into what he considers humorous (lesbianism, a young woman's physical appearance), particularly since it was delivered to a Republican crowd. Remember, this is the party that champions pro-family values.

McCain's lapse in judgment -- admittedly, not as big a lapse as having a sexual relationship with an intern -- may be a significant clue into aspects of his "character," and thus relevant to the voting public. But many voters have been spared this insight, thanks to the censors in the press.

Accordingly, McCain is well-positioned to ride out this messy little episode. Ever since he started championing the anti-tobacco bill (which was torpedoed by his GOP comrades), McCain has been the White House's pet Republican on the Hill. Consequently, the White House played down his Chelsea remarks. McCain is also unusually popular with the media. He gives good quotes; he is outspoken. He takes positions that contradict the Republican leadership. When you talk to McCain, he converses in the manner of a real person, seemingly telling you what he thinks. That is rare among elected officials. Ask him a question and he does not shift into automatic-politician mode, as do most members of Congress.

The former Vietnam POW should escape this matter without serious political harm. In the inevitable magazine profiles of McCain that will be written, there will no doubt be the perfunctory line: "McCain's tendency to speak too freely was proven when he made a distasteful joke at a fund-raiser about the first family and then had to apologize to the president."

But the joke revealed more than a mean streak in a man who would be president. It also exposed how the Washington Post, New York Times and Los Angeles Times play favorites when reporting the foibles of our leading politicians.

Ouch


I thought they were only allowed to do stuff like this to Democrats.

Bloggypoo round up time!

The following is solid gold by true bad asses! Enjoy:

From TheRandiRhodesShow.com & written by Randi Rhodes:

Sarah who?

The hits just keep on comin! Perhaps “vetting” might have made sense here, but nothing McSame does makes sense.

Leave aside how many truly qualified Republicans McSame had to choose from, i.e. Governor Jodi Rell or Senators Olympia Snowe, Susan Collins and even Kay Bailey Hutchinson IF he wanted “ovaries” on the ticket, but choosing Sarah Palin without even KNOWING HER shows the kind of judgment that should scare the PANTS SUIT off everyone.

Sarah Palin didn’t even have a passport until she got a passport to go to Kuwait once.

• She knows nothing about Foreign Policy - YOU know more about Iraq, Iran, Afghanistan, North Korea, Russia and Pakistan than she does!!


• She thinks Alaska should seced from the “union”


• She was FOR the Bridge to No Where until she was against it


• She campaigned for indicted Senator Ted Stevens


• She knows nothing the American Credit Crisis, Free Trade, Immigration, Economics, Foreign Policy, National Security, Education, Health Care, Iraq, Iran, Russia, Pakistan, Afghanistan, North Korea or China.


• She is under investigation for abuse of power (she had her brother in law State Trooper Wooten fired during a custody battle with her sister)


• She was a sportscaster, a city councilwoman and mayor of a town with less than 10,000 people before she was elected Governor almost by default


• She now claims “13 years of Elected Experience”


• She claims to have MORE experience than Barack Obama and Joe Biden


• She has served less than 2 years as Governor


• She did not campaign with John McCain


• She did not know John McCain


• She hunts from airplanes


• She is a radical Christian Right Winger who obviously does believe in choice “Bristol CHOSE to have her baby”


• She thinks the Pledge of Allegiance was written by the Founding Fathers Francis Bellamy (1855 - 1931), a Baptist minister, wrote the original Pledge in August 1892. He was a Christian Socialist


• She brought the issue of ABORTION into the Wasilla’s “Mayor” race (a non partisan job that pays $68K/year)


• Her mother in law won’t vote for her.


• She doesn’t know what the Vice President “does all day”


• She has a son who won’t take a photo with her, a 17 year old daughter who is pregnant


• She stayed in Texas determined to “give a speech” at the Governors Conference AFTER her water broke prematurely with a high risk pregnancy


• She is married to a guy who had a DUI


• She doesn’t believe Global Warming is real


• She doesn’t believe in Evolution


• She would be a heartbeat away from being the Commander in Chief of the most awesome military and nuclear arsenal on the planet

What is this about?

John McCain is a desperate man who will do anything to TRY to win an election including putting us in the hands of a patently unqualified HOCKEY mom.

So Monica Goodling wasn’t available???

Bristol Palin's Vagina Considered:
Let us pause for a moment to think about Bristol Palin's 17 year-old vagina. Don't worry, fellas and gals. The age of consent in Alaska is 16, so not only can you think away, but you don't have to worry that 18 year-old Levi Johnston raped her statutorily. Already the governor's daughter, Bristol Palin and her vagina were thrust into a national spotlight thanks to the pure beauty queen/newscaster stupidity of her mother, Republican vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin, and the McCain campaign, which seems to act more like an agitated old man with Alzheimer's than the actual agitated old man the campaign is for. So as we think about Bristol Palin's vagina and the obvious activity it has experienced, remember that we did not ask for her vagina to be shoved in our faces.

First off, how much of a fucking idiot do you have to be to even allow yourself to be a national nominee if your high school senior daughter is pregnant? Sarah Palin, whose frightening 1980s head shot looks like every white girl the Rude Pundit ever fucked in college, believed that her personal ambitions were more important than Bristol's vagina when Bristol's vagina should have come first.

When it was announced that the teenager had decided "on her own" that she would keep the baby, evangelicals masturbated at the idea of Bristol Palin's vagina, which was possibly roughed-up by Levi's stumbling fingers before he fucked her for a couple of seconds, depositing his sperm-rich semen into Bristol. The Family Research Council released a statement praising Bristol for "choosing life in the midst of a difficult situation."

What the fuck's all this shit about "decisions" and "choice"? The point of the pro-life movement is that there ought to be no choice available. High school hockey player with douchebag whiskers knocks your daughter up? She's having that fucking baby. Because if there was ever a moment where there was a choice, that makes her goddamned pro-choice.

So, really, was there ever a discussion, at any point? Did Bristol Palin ever get to say, "Papa Don't Preach"-style, "I'm keepin' my baby?" 'Cause, see, that seems at odds with the goals of Feminists for Life, of which Sarah is a proud member.

Bristol Palin's vagina, which may or may not be topped by a tuft of pubic hair shaved in various shapes, is important to our national discourse for obvious reasons. Her vagina, however tight or loose it may be, reveals how degraded conservative moral beliefs actually are, as if we needed any more evidence that abstinence education is a complete failure, even from one's parents, that teenagers wanna fuck and are gonna fuck no matter how much you threaten disease, babies, or the stink-eye of Jesus.

But, at the end of the day, the fact that we are discussing Bristol Palin's vagina means that the John McCain campaign is effectively over. Not because of the fact of the vagina, but because of the fact that John McCain probably gave more consideration and background checking to the servants at his and Cindy's houses. He has fucked the goat. Even if, as some are suggesting, he's gonna try to take a mulligan on the decision and re-boot to Lieberman, well, if one gets that 3 a.m. call for a crisis, one had better make the right decision by 3:01.

Note: An earlier version of this mistakenly ascribed the lyrics to "Papa Don't Preach" to "Like a Virgin." The Rude Pundit regrets the confusion over Madonna's oeuvre. Thanks to obviously gay male reader JC for pointing this out.

President Bush -- the elephant in the room

by Carl Hiaasen Posted on Sun, Aug. 31, 2008

http://www.miamiherald.com/news/columnists/carl-hiaasen/story/664637.html

The Republicans gathering in Minnesota for their national convention face an interesting challenge: Hiding George W. Bush under an invisibility cloak.

With his approval ratings hovering miserably around 30 percent, the president is only slightly more popular than Dick Cheney, who is only slightly more popular than Hannibal Lecter.

So what do you do with these two guys?

If you don't let the president and vice president speak at their own party's convention, it would be seen as an embarrassing admission that they've botched things beyond anybody's worst fears.

But if you do let them speak -- as they will, in St. Paul -- you run the risk of reminding the country what a fateful and costly mistake was made in 2000.

These days, neither Bush nor Cheney often appear at unscreened public events. Instead they out turn for carefully selected audiences that are not likely to boo, hiss or jeer.

Inside the convention hall, GOP delegates will receive the two men with respect and perhaps even a degree of warmth. It's the millions of undecided voters watching on television that John McCain and the Republicans must worry about.

Since locking up the nomination in the spring, McCain has been attacking Barack Obama almost nonstop, a strategy calculated to divert attention from the colossal mess made by the Bush-Cheney tag team.

The current administration has such a paltry list of achievements that McCain has very little to trumpet, or embrace. Because he's been so unwilling to criticize the president, and so unable to set himself apart, his only option is to focus his rhetoric on Obama.

One of the issues on which McCain been in chorus with Bush and at odds with the Democrats was opposing any timetable for withdrawing troops from Iraq. Suddenly, Bush has whirled 180 degrees and agreed to precisely such a pullout schedule.

With U.S. polls showing widespread support for American withdrawal, McCain, ironically, now finds himself scrambling to realign himself with a president from whose shadow he must soon escape -- if he hopes to be elected.

Considering the public's fed-up mood, Obama ought to be cruising toward a double-digit win. Yet the race remains extremely close, which makes Bush's role at the convention even more dicey.

The president is not here

A photograph of him and McCain beaming arm-in-arm would be a gift to the Democrats, who've been casting the Arizona senator as a faithful acolyte and ideological soul mate of the president.

The longer that Bush and Cheney hang around St. Paul, the more difficult it will be for Republicans to throw that invisibility cloak over the past 7 ½ years.

Without the president in the house, it would be easier to:

• Pretend that Hurricane Katrina never happened and that nobody in New Orleans suffered or died needlessly.

• Pretend our economy isn't in the crapper. Pretend that we don't have the largest deficit in history, and no prayer for a balanced budget.

• Pretend our energy policy is innovative and farsighted, and not hijacked by the oil companies.

• Pretend the mortgage crisis and housing crash weren't avoidable.

• Pretend that the war in Iraq has been a huge success, and that we couldn't have spent that trillion or so dollars on problems here at home. Pretend there really were weapons of mass destruction.

• Pretend the Taliban isn't resurging more violently than ever in Afghanistan. Pretend we actually caught Osama bin Laden and brought him to trial.

That's a whole pile of pretending, and McCain's dilemma is obvious. He needs to decisively cut himself free from the president without sounding too much like his opponents.

Bush and Cheney are both set to speak on Monday, early in the convention. The big question is, will they reappear on stage with McCain on the night of his acceptance speech?

Nothing would make Obama and the Democrats happier, and nothing would make McCain's campaign managers more jittery.

Cheney can be dodged, but not the president. Should McCain embrace him? Shake his hand? Chuck him on the shoulder? Pat him on the back?

It's a tricky scene that GOP strategists must have grappled with as they choreographed the grand finale. While McCain can't afford to be perceived as being too chummy with Bush, at the same time he can't behave as if the man's got cooties.

I predict a hug, brief and collegial. And a photo that will be up on Obama's website within seconds.
