Today, I discovered the (soon to be) ex-governor's twitter page (http://twitter.com/AKGovSarahPalin).
And I have become mesmerized by that page's hallucinatory and messianic background image (http://s3.amazonaws.com/twitter_production/profile_background_images/10758186/SP_TwitterBG5.jpg), which is best appreciated in high-resolution glory. Due to weird photoshoppery and pixilation, the profile view of Sarah's sheaf of papers appears to be some type of deadly spork gun.
Talking to your shoes make sense, too, if your worldview is that your pants are out to kill you.
However, he is OTM on the Apocalypse 2012 nonsense.
It's interesting that he posted this just days before her announcement. While I appreciated his insight, stupid is, in fact, as stupid does, and her media appearances demonstate a lack of knowledge and even curiosity. I hope her career isn't over so she can continue to divide Republicans. Personally, I'm hoping that Democrats opebly become a conservative or right-leaning moderate party and a real liberal party emerges. I'd proudly be a member of the Slightly Silly party.

You are a man wise beyond your years, Pastor Josh.

You have no idea how old I am. I might be a very dense four-hundred-year-old.

Alas, perhaps it was unwise to make any presumptions about you.

No one with Johnny La Rue as their profile picture could ever do anything unwise.

Unless it involves a crane shot.
A lot of people have trouble with his smugness, but I find him charming as part of a diet high in skeptical podcasts.
Isn't anyone who self-identifies as a part of some "Skeptic Movement" an asshole by definition? The whole thing smells like Penn Gilette's greasy ponytail and John Stossel's greasy mustache.

Those two are both libertarians and self-identified skeptics. I think that particular combination does generally result in assholism.

Well the thing is, it isn't libertarianism/skepticism that makes you smug. It's that smug cocks seek out things that let them feel superior.
Also if somebody tells you they're an Objectvist or an Ayn Rand fan or a Rush (the Canadian rock group) fan.
how many times can you disprove ghosts? being a "skeptic" sounds repetitive.

Until news organizations stop telling people that they might be real. It is repetitive, an that's causing some tension in the skeptic movement right now. And, it's true that pricks seek out things to make them feel superior, and that can be anything from religion to skepticism to indie rock. Doesn't mean liking any of those things makes you a prick.

Hey, I liked Michael Shermer's book Why People Believe Weird Things, I just don't see it as a lifestyle choice. But, if you focus on advocacy (as opposed to preaching to the choir) I can see how it could be useful.
I agree that pricks are into everything. But there is something about totalizing ideologies that draws them out.

... I'm amazed at how my critical thinking has improved since I've been challenged by them. I appreciate what they have to teach me, but I don't want to lurk inside thier movement.
There is no 'Department of Law' at the White House.
She's really giving Orwell a run for his money. Quitting = fighting. 33 months = 4 years.
My prediction is that she's going to go the entertainment, rather than political, route. And that she will flame out horribly, because in order to have a good talk show, the host needs to have a modicum of curiosity about the world. And nothing interests her at all, other than her own self.

Oh, so she will pull a Huckabee.

I'd take Huckabee over Palin any day.
Richard Nixon also had really nice legs, just like Palin. Little-known fact!

And he, too, liked to wear stockings under his running shorts. I think he may also have Vaselined his teeth and taped his nipples, but I'm not sure.

Oh, she'd do just fine on a certain news channel,evenespecially with her lack of curiosity.

It's the same batshit views, only he's articulate and charismatic. I may hate Huckabee even more because he hides the crazy better.

I'm not sure if I'm processing this image correctly. That's Sarah Palin autographing the dress of a child with Down's Syndrome while the mother gawks on in awe? So now your child is nothing more than a prop, congratulations lady of the special needs child.

I don't know where you're getting Down's Syndrome from. I think it's just a normal baby that looks to be crying.

I agree with Woodandiron. It's hard to tell from the picture, but it looks like the child has the tell-tale physical signs of Down's Syndrome. I say this as someone with experience in the field. Although, it is an awkward angle.

I think that's actually a little person.
I think she'd rather be Limbaugh than president, anyway.
The media is smitten with her only because she's a freak/joke that helps them feed the endless, gaping maw created by the 24/7 news cycle. This may get her a show somewhere at some point but hardly bodes well for her political future.
