Levi Johnston Still Taunting Sarah Palin

Sarah Palin’s nemesis, nude model and her daughter’s former fake fiance Levi Johnston does not hold back when it comes to Alaska’s most famous family. Recently, he weighed in on the former Vice Presidential candidate’s new reality show, saying it’s going to flop … compared to his own unnamed TV plans. “Good for her but mine (show) is gonna beat it,” Johnston said at Perez Hilton’s birthday bash at LA’s Paramount lot. What is “his” show exactly? Unclear. And unimportant, for the most part, since as long as Sarah Palin does anything, and someone asks Levi Johnston for comment, we will get funny clips … I’MMA SMACK YOU : That’s what Sarah Palin’s thinking now, anyway … Sarah Palin’s Alaska is about to make her the newest star of Discovery’s TLC network, joining the ranks of Jon Gosselin, Kat Von D, the Duggars, etc. The “travelogue” about our 49th state is being executive produced by the former Alaska Governor herself along with reality TV kingpin Mark Burnett. Whatever. Now if someone got Levi Johnston and Sarah Palin in the ring for some celebrity boxing on pay per view, that would be worth tuning in for. Same goes for a Sarah Palin- Elisabeth Hasselbeck throwdown. For the time being, we’ll have to live with clips like this of Levi sort of taunting her … Levi Taunts Sarah

Elisabeth Hasselbeck Goes Off on Sarah Palin

In never-thought-you’d-see-the-day news, staunch conservative Elisabeth Hasselbeck went off on The View yesterday, railing against none other than Sarah Palin. Why? Because Palin, for whom she campaigned during the 2008 election, released an ad that put 20 Democratic members of the U.S. Congress literally in the crosshairs. Palin’s call to kill Democrats grass roots action came in response to the Dems’ big f*%king deal overhaul of the health care system, which she’s very opposed to. The former Alaska Governor’s Facebook page features her political action committee’s ad targeting the 20 Democratic incumbents, with a “SarahPac map” marking, with guns, the districts where Democrats voted “yes” for health care reform. Elisabeth would like a mulligan on this campaign rally. Hasselbeck also opposes health reform, but she’s actually far more upset about how people on her own side of the political spectrum are handling themselves. “I think the way some Republicans are handling this is nothing more than purely despicable,” she said in response to Palin’s ad. “It’s disappointing to see this come from the Party, and I would hope that leaders like Sarah Palin would end this.” No word if Sarah also plugged Bristol Palin on there somehow. Liberal-leaning co-host Joy Behar got Elisabeth going by saying the map looked “like an Al Qaeda Christmas card.” We were surprised to watch Elisabeth concur.

Minnesota to get a double dose of crazy!

Former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin will hold a fundraiser for Rep. Michele Bachmann next month, the Minnesota Republican’s campaign announced Thursday. Palin will co-host the April 7 fundraiser with Minnesota Gov. Tim Pawlenty, former Sen. Norm Coleman (R-Minn.) and Minnesota GOP Reps. John Kline and Erik Paulsen. Donors to Bachmann’s reelection campaign can give more to attend a private reception with Palin prior to a dinner at the Minneapolis Hilton. Bachmann’s staff is also trying to organize a rally with the 2008 GOP vice presidential nominee, but has yet to settle on any specifics. Tickets will be $500.00 each. (You can read the rest of Politico’s article by clicking the title.) Just imagine paying five hundred dollars to see the Grifter from Wasilla and the Dingbat from Minnesota in the same room. I am just stunned that the circus freak show costs so much these days. I wonder if they will also trot out a bearded lady and pinhea…oh..never mind. Michele Bachman may be the only woman, this side of Orly Taitz, who can make Sarah Palin seem reasonable. What? Don’t believe me? Well then you need to take a few minutes to watch this compilation of her greatest hits courtesy of Countdown. Of course Michele Bachman is not the only politician who believes that the bright and shiny object known as Sarah Palin can attract the knuckle draggers and terminally ignorant to support their campaign. The Dr. Franken-Senator responsible for creating this monster has also humbled himself enough to beg for her support . Former Republican vice presidential nominee and Alaska Governor Sarah Palin will be in Arizona the last weekend of March as part of Senator John McCain’s re-election campaign. Details of that trip are now starting to come into focus. McCain and his 2008 running mate will host a campaign rally in Tucson on the afternoon of Friday March 26th, before holding a high dollar fundraiser at the Arizona Biltmore later that evening. On Saturday the 27th they will hold another rally in Phoenix. For the fundraiser, $2500 gets you into the dinner as well as an hour-long pre-dinner VIP reception, including a photo opportunity with McCain and Palin. Tickets to the dinner alone run for $500, or $1000 for preferred seating. Can you just imagine how uncomfortable the small talk would be between these two losers? “Hey John remember how surprised you were when James Dobson made you choose me for your running mate?” “Yeah Sarah, remember how you destroyed my campaign, my reputation, and my sanity?” “Yeah I do. Do you remember how you wouldn’t let me burn Obama in effigy or let my supporters wear their white hoods? We could have won John! If you had just let “Sarah be Sarah”, we could have won John!” “I am getting too old for this shit.” Sadly for McCain he has no choice but to bring the Queen of the Teabaggers out to slap down his opponent JD Hayworth, who essentially is just posing as a teabaggger to get their support. I just hope he remembers how horrible he felt the morning after the LAST time he hooked up Sarah Palin.

Sarah Palin to Produce Alaska Documentary

The other night, Jay Leno asked Sarah Palin if she had any future TV plans, and she joked that she heard his position opens up every once in awhile. Well it turns out she already has a TV plan of sorts. The former Alaska Governor and Survivor creator Mark Burnett are shopping a new docudrama. Seriously. The TV project features a “planet-Earth-type look” at her home state of Alaska. We have no idea what that means, but it sounds … cool? We’ll assume it refers to the acclaimed Discovery Channel series Planet Earth . Which has sort of already done what they’re describing if so. Anyway. So much Sarah Palin on TV. Not enough hours in the day. Palin and Burnett had a meeting with Fox honchos yesterday, and are talking with ABC and CBS today and NBC Universal tomorrow. So this is legit. Other documentaries we’d love to see from Sarah Palin: The Height of Hypocrisy : A Shameless Attempt to Cash in Meghan Stapleton’s Guide to Being a Terrible Publicist A Hockey Mom’s Guide to Strange Baby Names

White House Openly Ridicules Sarah Palin

White House Press Secretary Robert Gibbs took a blatant shot at former Alaska Governor Sarah Palin today. You could say it was an open-handed slap of sorts. Robert Gibbs addressed the press corps this afternoon with a mini grocery list on his hand. The ingredients: Eggs, Milk, Bread (crossed out), Hope, Change. This was a response to Palin using crib notes while reciting her speech and laying into President Obama at the National Tea Party convention in Nashville. Because you really need to write down “I’m proud to be an American!” – her #1 political position – on your hand. Is memorization that hard? You betcha! Robert Gibbs mocks Sarah Palin’s “notes” from Sunday night . Pretty funny, really, when you consider she rips Obama for using a Teleprompter. Also funny? In her Q&A, she really went off-message … or off-English. Make no mistake, the White House didn’t appreciate Palin’s cheap shots, and the administration isn’t kidding when it talks about fighting back harder. After all, Palin hates their agenda even more than Levi Johnston ! If this continues, it’s going to get pretty stormy in D.C., and not just because the city’s about to get slammed by a second blizzard in less than a week. Should Sarah Palin run for president?
