Barf bags at the ready! Here is some video of Palin and Glenn Beck in Tulsa Oklahoma.

Oh God who can listen to her speak and still believe that she is not a huge phony? By the way, I have no idea how many people actually showed up to this event. In the video they say 4,000.

Ted Casablanca’s Awful Truth blind item is NOT the Palins. At least I am pretty sure it is not.

Okay I have been sent this post from Ted Casablanc almost a half dozen times. And sometiems people have becoem cranky wiht me for not puting it up. So okay here it is. The may not be swingers like Secretia Ohio and Chester Shorts-Off, but Henrietta Hard-Ball and her blandly good-looking husband, Elijah Schwad, have a convenient relationship when it comes to sex. Like so many famous couples. Henrietta’s allowed to pursue (with ferocious abandon, mind you) her high-powered career, as long as Elijah takes care of the family and the home. It’s an arrangement that’s served both spouses well, for many reasons. But ah, the only reason that causes us to really care about her is the one that makes Elijah happy. Can you guess what it is? A little bed-time dynamic that might make even Toothy Tile jump for joy? Yep, you guessed it (otherwise you’re reading the wrong column, really), Elijah lives to get it on with the dudes. But like so many selfish men—is there any other kind?—Elijah also wanted a happy home and a family, so he brokered a deal with the attractive, driven Henrietta, who’s about as interested in sex these days as Lindsay Lohan is in working. So both kinda fake-married folks get what they want—a career for her, a harem of hotties for him. What’s even more interesting about this scenario is the fact that Henrietta and Elijah don’t have your typical celeb following. Sarah Jessica Parker and Matthew Broderick they are not. Let’s just say that one of them works in a business that is mercilessly driven by what Middle America deigns right and wrong. If anybody in this corn-fed fanbase the kinky twosome so direly depends on ever got wind of the debauched details in the couple’s sex arrangement, life would be over for them both—in seconds. Hmmm. That’s quite a gamble, wonder why either of them are even taking it? Oh, that’s right, Henrietta’s never been known to see anything close to reason, completely forgot. AND IT AIN’T: Gisele and Tom Brady, Mo’Nique and Sidney Hicks, Michelle and Barack Obama Yes, I agree that the description of this couple sounds suspiciously like Todd and Sarah Palin. However unless Casablanca has uncovered something that has escaped the notice of every journalist and blogger up here, the description of this man having sex with other guys precludes him from being Todd Palin. Believe me I have heard almost every single kind of rumor that you can hear about the Palins, and I have never even heard a whisper of one like this. I could go down a list of all of the actual rumors I have heard, but I have no idea which ones have any validity, or which ones have been shared in confidence and nobody else is supposed to know. (I get a lot of those!) But for the record, as far as I know Todd likes the ladies. Believe me if I knew otherwise I would probably have hinted at it by now. Or I would just confirm that Casablanca is on to something. But I have no information that leads me to that conclusion. (By the way if you click the title and read the comments on the Awful Truth it is pretty clear they have little doubt that it is about Todd and Sarah. Gee I wonder who it’s REALLY about?)

Sarah Palin gives speech in Florida where she lashes out at condescending liberals and the media. I decide to write a condescending post about it.

(Sarah Palin shocks crowd by delivering entire speech using naked sock puppets.) Sarah Palin lashed out at Washington, the media and condescending liberals Friday night at an Orlando Republican fund-raising event, and predicted the GOP would restore “common sense” to government in the upcoming November elections. Palin said those notes she wrote on her hand at a National Tea Party event — where the media and White House later “busted me for using a poor-man’s teleprompter” — explained just what the country needed: a strong energy policy, tax cuts; and “lifting America’s spirits.” “Americans get it,” Palin said. “In Washington, they don’t get it.” I think what Palin is trying to say here is that she does not believe these “Americans” she speaks of are as intelligent as the people in Washington, who immediately knew that the fact Palin wrote notes on her hand demonstrated an incredible level of ignorance and immaturity. The wildly popular, but equally polarizing former vice presidential candidate packed the Orange County Republican Party’s annual Lincoln Day fundraiser, attracting 1,300 fans to the Shingle Creek Resort. Orange GOP Chairman Lew Oliver said he expected the event to net the party more than $110,000. Does that amount even cover her speaking fee? I am just asking. While Sarah was up on stage polishing her verbal moose turds she took a moment out to attack a wildly popular local politician. The fearless Alan Grayson. While advocating for standard GOP issues — lower taxes, less spending, more freedom and smaller government — Palin also singled out one Central Florida Democratic politician: U.S Rep. Alan Grayson of Orlando. Palin said voters need to remove the fiery millionaire lawyer in November.”Do it for the rest of America,” she said in a speech lasting about 40 minutes. Yeah Florida, get rid of one of the few really effective and dedicated Democratic politicians in Washington. Because he kind of scares the shit out of the GOP who, apparently, are the only people that Palin considers to be “real Americans”. I assume she puts the people of Florida who voted for Grayson, and sent him to Washington, to be in some separate category. What is your best guess? Socialists, communists, or gay Nazis? Gee I wonder what Rep. Grayson has to say in response to that. “I’m sure Palin knows all about politics in Central Florida, since from her porch she can see Winter Park,” Grayson responded. Nice. Still Palin did manage to impress a few people. Listen to what this woman, who clearly does not have access to the internet, had to say about Palin. “I love her morals, her character and the way she says what she believes,” said Connie Albers, a self-described 40-something, stay-at-home mom from Winter Garden. Gee I wonder if the rock this woman is living under has air conditioning. I mean it can get so hot in Florida. As long as there are still enough people like this lady around Palin will always be able to attract an audience too unaware and uninformed to realize that their opinion is based on a fantasy that Palin, with the help of Fox News and certain websites, has crafted to help her empty the pockets of the disaffected and disillusioned. For some of these people it is really only a choice between buying aluminum siding from swindlers, sending their money to a televangelist, or paying to watch Sarah Palin speak. Same audience, different line of bullshit.

James Dobson forced to resign from "Focus on the Family"? Gee, maybe there is a God.

A prominent friend and supporter of James Dobson believes Dobson was pushed aside by the new leadership of Focus on the Family, who want the powerhouse evangelical ministry to project a softer image on issues ranging from abortion to gay marriage to relations with President Obama. In February 2009, Dobson stepped down as chairman of the Colorado Springs-based group’s board of directors, after relinquishing his longtime role as president in 2003. But he kept his role of host of the popular Focus radio show, which is reportedly heard by 1.5 million Americans each day. Then, this past November, Dobson said on the show that the Focus board had asked him to give up the radio program in a few months time. Late last month, he delivered his final Focus broadcast. In little-noticed comments from the November show, Dobson seemed troubled by the board’s decision to ask him to give up the program. “[T]the board of directors voted privately on Wednesday — before we got there — to ask for my resignation, although their request was made with kindness and respect. We can only guess the reason for their decision because frankly I don’t fully know,” Dobson said. “But it apparently has to do with the desire for closure on my tenure and the beginning of another.” Well this can only be taken as good news. Though I don’t expect Focus on the Family to suddenly become a bastion for tolerance and progressive ideals, I certainly think throwing Dobson overboard gives them a chance to at least move away from the crazier side of Christianity. Remember James Dobson is the same genius who suggest that watching Spongebob Squarepants would make your children gay . He also gave serial killer Ted Bundy a kind of absolution by allowing him to suggest that pornography was to blame for his desire to rape and murder women. And perhaps most egregious of all is that Dobson and his Evangelical cohorts are the one’s to blame for John McCain’s choice of Sarah Palin as his running mate. Yes I think we can all agree that the world is a safer, saner place without the likes of James Dobson running an influential group like Focus on the Family. However, in my opinion, the world might be improved even further if groups like Focus on the Family did not exist at all. But they that is just me.

A high level Republican insider’s take on Sarah Palin.

This comes from an interview conducted by E Online’s Ted Casablanca (Who just recently was virtually tarred and feathered by the Palin-bots for reporting on Sarah’s great “swag grab” right before the Oscars) In this interview Casblanca asks a GOP insider what he thinks of Sarah Palin’s chances in 2012. You can read the entire interview by clicking the title above, but I wanted to direct your attention to this quote in particular: I kind of see her as the Jon Gosselin of politics: Way out of her league, thinks she’s something more than what she really is and is desperate for attention and tongue-bathing. She doesn’t know when to just go away and be quiet for a bit. Okay look I understand that when somebody is constantly seeking the spotlight and putting their personal life on display for all the world to see, like some kind of sideshow freak, that it may seem fair to compare them to one of the most shallow fame whores on the planet. But I just think that this Republican insider was being completely unfair in making this comparison! In other words I think that this man owes John Gosselin an apology!

Finally somebody will get Sarah Palin on the witness stand!

Former Alaska Governor and Vice Presidential candidate Sarah Palin is expected to be a witness at a University of Tennessee student’s internet fraud trial next month. University of Tennessee student David Kernell, now 22, is accused of accessing Sarah Palin’s personal e-mail account (gov.palin@yahoo.com) while she was Sen. John McCain’s running mate. Palin was governor at the time. Prosecutors contend Kernell answered some security questions, like Palin’s date of birth and where she met her spouse, then reset her password. He’s accused of posting the new password on the internet so others could look at her e-mail account. I doubt the defense attorney will ask Palin any of the questions that most of us are dying to hear her answer, but I know I will still be paying very close attention to this trial. Just in case.

I literally cannot think of a more hurtful insult.

“Queen Meg, who over the last fifteen days, has made clear that she is Sarah Palin without the brains , needs to apologize for trying to wall off the People of California while refusing to take questions from the press, release her tax returns or talk to actual voters. Ow! That really stings! It will take GOP candidate Meg Whitman several pints of Haagen-Dazs ice cream eaten whilst sitting in a hot bath to dull the pain of THAT comment. However throwing media out of a public event does sound very Sarah-like doesn’t it? And yes, I would know.

Meet Sarah Palin, Professional Celebrity

Since August 2008, Sarah Palin has been one of the most famous political figures in the country. Since August 2009, she’s been one of our most famous figures, period. By August 2010, she may be unrivaled in the fame department. Last week, we reported how the former Alaska governor was working on a TV series about her home state, pitched by none other than famed producer Mark Burnett. A day before that, her publishers at HarperCollins announced she was embarking on a second book , a follow-up to her blockbuster best-selling memoir, Going Rogue . The day before that , she was the marquee guest on The Tonight Show , upstaging the likes of Olympic champion Shaun White and American Idol star Adam Lambert . No small feat there. Sarah Palin speaking at some event recently . At least on the surface, she remains engaged in politics, praising the Tea Party movement, and somewhat involved in journalism … or whatever Fox News is. A joke she told on The Tonight Show said it all: “The truth is, though, I’m glad that I’m not vice president. I would not know what to do with all that free time.” Bam! Seriously, though. No one works harder at being a celebrity than Sarah Palin, whether she’s hitting an Oscar gift suite or trying to cash in on teen mom Bristol Palin . But toward what end? A 2012 presidential run? Tens of millions? A daily talk show? Oprah-like, single-name dominance of pop culture and soon the entire universe? Everyone wondering exactly that simply enhances her star power, as does the blurring of the worlds of politics, celebrity and the media, which extends beyond her.
