VIDEO: Sarah Palin called me a liar, "bored" and "pathetic"

By GottaLaff

Laffy Note: I've added a video--

Dennis Zaki of The Alaska Report offers this newest interview with the question, “What would you want to tell anonymous bloggers.”

Happier times

Grandma McIncoherent, you don't know me at all, yet you've hypocritically labeled me the way you accuse others of labeling you. I'm a blogger, yet little do you know that I'm rarely bored and I don't lie (Hey, it's not like I haven't tried, I've just failed miserably). But that's okay, you have nothing left in your arsenal. I'm here if you need to vent.

As for pathetic, I can safely and proudly say I've never been called that, but, hmmm, let's think real hard... who has? Oh yes! You! Over and over again:

Sarah Palin fired a new salvo in her war on the media, unloading in a new interview on her home state paper and “bored, anonymous, pathetic bloggers who lie.”

The Alaska governor, who has granted a steady stream of interviews since Election Day, also told an Esquire reporter that she wishes she had told McCain campaign advisors she’d be “callin’ some of the shots.”

"Bored, anonymous, pathetic bloggers who lie annoy me….I'll tell you, yesterday the Anchorage Daily News, they called again to ask — double-, triple-, quadruple-check — who is Trig's real mom,” she said, in an interview to be published in the magazine’s March issue.

“And I said, Come on, are you kidding me? We're gonna answer this? Do you not believe me [Laffy Note: No.] or my doctor? And they said, No, it's been quite cryptic the way that my son's birth has been discussed. And I thought, Okay, more indication of continued problems in the world of journalism."

But Palin said she had adopted a philosophical attitude on the downside of the spotlight. "You have to let it go,” she said. “Even hard news sources, credible news sources — the comment about, you can see Russia from Alaska. You can! You can see Russia from Alaska. Something like that — a factual statement that was taken out of context and mocked — what you have to do is let that go."

Where to begin? First off, if letting go is what one "has to do", McIncoherent may want to take her own advice. The contradictory nature of this interview had me laying my head down, pounding my desk with my fist, and laughing until my eyes welled up with tears.

Next: McIncoherent is revealing her Bush III side once again: blaming the media for her own failures, for starters. But, just as Bush's final press conference did nothing to improve his reputation as someone who has utterly no self-awareness (or awareness of anything around him), neither did Grandma's interview.

Oh, and nobody cared much whether or not Russia was visible from Alaska, although her claim did inspire many an amusing YouTube. No, it was her using that visual to tout her foreign policy experience that widened both Democratic and Republican eyes alike.

I won't go on. It would take more effort and space than she's worth.

One more Bushism from the mental equivalent of our soon-to-be former president [sic]:

Despite a season of barbs aimed at the coastal elites, Palin seemed to offer an olive branch to the Big Apple: "I would think we all tear up during the national anthem at the beginning of a baseball game, don't we? That's an alikeness between Alaskans and New Yorkers," she said.

That last Palinism was a perfect example of an embarrassing alikeness between a dippy Alaskan and a faux Texan.

UPDATE-- Even HuckaScout'sHonor slams Palin:

Mike Huckabee (R), a likely Republican presidential candidate in 2012, took a shot at Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin (R), one of his possible rivals, in an Esquire interview.

Said Huckabee: "Now I must say I did not think that either the Charlie Gibson interview or the Katie Couric interviews were unfair. In fact, if anything, Katie Couric was extraordinarily gentle, even helpful. [Palin] just... I don't know what happened. I can't explain it. It was not a good interview. I'm being charitable."

Apparently, GOP Campaign 2012 is in full swing.

UPDATE #2-- Meghan McCain gets her claws out, too. Suh-nap:

"Sarah Palin is the only part of the campaign that I won't comment on publicly."

Ann Coulter: "Obama race-baited his way to success", McCain nominated for "Who's the Biggest Pussy?"

There's nobody quite as ill-bred as Madam's Apple. She's in a class all by herself... mainly because nobody could stand to share anything with her. On January 6th, NBC will help Madam's sell books ( Guilty: Liberal "Victims" and Their Assault on America).

Be proud while you can, NBC, because after seeing what's inside the covers (and in her case, under the covers with anything that moves... or doesn't), I have a sneaking suspicion you may see an abrupt drop in ratings:

Examples of such comments from Guilty include the following:

• Coulter says the Democratic primaries were a contest of "Who's the Biggest Pussy?":

[N]one of the Democrats could face questions from Fox News's Brit Hume, the winner turned out to be [Barack] Obama. Hillary [Clinton] claimed to be a victim of Republicans, while Obama claimed to be a victim of Republicans, Hillary, and racists. [Page 79]

Coulter later suggests that Sen. John McCain should also be nominated for this contest [...] [E]vidently McCain was more afraid of the real attack machine: the mainstream media. [...] Say, is it too late to nominate someone else for that "Who's the Biggest Pussy" contest? [Page 88]

• Coulter calls children whose parents divorce "future strippers" in a chapter titled "Victim of a Crime? Thank a Single Mother":

We also have a term for the youngsters involved: "the children of divorce," or as I call them, "future strippers." It is a mark of how attractive it is to be a phony victim that divorcées will often claim to belong to the more disreputable category of "single mothers." [Page 36]

• Coulter, discussing "Republican turncoats," remarks that "their gender always remains the same. They are women, not limited to the biological sense". [Page 114]
• Coulter claims that Obama, actress Halle Berry, and musician Alicia Keys "race bait[ed] their way to success":

In a related phenomenon, various half-black celebrities insist on representing themselves simply as "black" -- the better to race-bait their way to success. Actress Halle Berry, singer Alicia Keys, and matinee idol Barack Obama were all abandoned by their black fathers and raised by their white mothers. But instead of seeing themselves as half-white, they prefer to see the glass as half-black. They all choose to identify with the fathers who ditched them, while insulting the women who struggled to raise them. [Page 7]

• Coulter calls former White House press secretary Scott McClellan "retarded" after describing a fictional scene of "washed-up Republican functionaries like McClellan showing up in a basement office at NBC and announcing they want to be rewarded for snitching on a Republican". [Page 118]
• Coulter states that New York Times columnist Frank Rich "became qualified to comment on U.S. foreign policy, national security, and presidential politics after spending a childhood dancing his favorite numbers from Oklahoma! in his mother's panties". [Page 198]
• Coulter calls Newsweek contributing editor Eleanor Clift a "braying left-wing slattern". [Page 193]
• Coulter describes Code Pink co-founders Medea Benjamin and Jodie Evans as "storm troopers" and "satanic dervishes". [Pages 177-178, 179]
• Discussing former Virginia Sen. George Allen's calling S.R. Sidarth -- a volunteer who was videotaping Allen for James Webb, Allen's Democratic opponent in 2006 -- "macaca," Coulter refers to Sidarth and other campaign trackers as "little Nazi block-watchers". [Page 165]

See? That's what some publisher thought was worth reading. And hey, why not? What an opportunity to gather the family around, cozy up in your flanneliest flannels, let the kids stay up extra extra late, make some fudge, and read aloud to each other. Why, you could all take turns! Think of it as "edu-tainment"!

And how nice for Coulter that she has a platform on national television.

Madam's Apple (emphasis on "mad") is nothing more than a used suppository in the shriveled, most uncivilized, vulgar recesses of the literary world.

She and her agent should thank their lucky stars there's still a First Amendment.
