And Tina Fey will be on MSNBC as Sarah Palin - kinda like the "Good Spock" and the Spock with a goatee at the same time.

It makes you wonder if McCain and/or Palin figured on this level of vitirol coming from the left?

I think Palin's "toughness" came through in that Gibson interview, when she was able to maintain her composure while being being talked down to, asked questions that were phrased to try to elicit a "gotcha" moment, and being misquoted.

It makes you wonder if McCain and/or Palin figured on this level of vitirol coming from the left? This is so bad, so fast.....that tells me they are either really afraid of her or just cannot stand to see a women with opposite views succeed. (Or, they are hate filled pea-brained losers clinging to a worn out and tired political outlook)

Perhaps both?

I think these attacks will do more harm than good from their side. As long as Palin stands tough, she will make them all look like little weasels trying to take down someone much better than they are.

Palin’s E-Mail Account Hacked, Published on Web Site

In the latest of a series of invasions into Sarah Palin’s personal life, hackers have broken into the Republican vice presidential candidate’s private e-mail account, and a widely read Web site has published screen grabs from it.

My observations:

1. Likely inside job. How do you "hack" Yahoo email or other commercial email?

2. Federal prison awaits some fine folks.

3. Yahoo is likely in deep doo doo also.

4. If this is tied to the ObamaTanic crew, he will sink faster than Kate Winslet.

Hacker who broke into Sarah Palin's Yahoo account tells all:

...Earlier it was just some prank to me, I really wanted to get something incriminating which I was sure there would be, just like all of you anon out there that you think there was some missed opportunity of glory, well there WAS NOTHING, I read everything, every little blackberry confirmation… all the pictures, and there was nothing, and it finally set in, THIS internet was serious business, yes I was behind a proxy, only one, if this shit ever got to the FBI I was fucked, I panicked, i still wanted the stuff out there but I didn’t know how to rapidshit all that stuff, so I posted the pass on /b/, and then promptly deleted everything, and unplugged my internet and just sat there in a comatose state

It wasn't immediately clear how hackers broke into Palin's Yahoo! account, but it would have been possible to trick the service into revealing her password knowing personal details about Palin that include her birthdate and ZIP code.

Right.....someone's gonna guess her "secret question" answer, or someonw at Yahoo's gonna release the password to some caller claiming to be "Sarah Palin of Alaska" ... like that name is just some unknown lady.

A hacker also might have sent a forged e-mail to her account tricking her into revealing her own password.

Of course, watch the hysterical left complain that law enforcement will somehow be infringing on the hacker's rights all while completely ignoring that the hacker was completely and totally breaking the law (and he knew he was breaking it - so much for an insanity defense because he knew the difference between right and wrong).

Paging buzzsawmonkey! Paging buzzsawmonkey!

I had a "D'oh!" moment earlier today. I suddenly remembered the PERFECT song to encapsulate the entire Sarah Palin phenomenon. All it needs is new lyrics! And you're just the man for the job.

The song in question used to be an American pop standard in the big band era, bad sadly most people under 70 probably don't remember it, unless they're students of musical history like me. Luckily, YouTube to the rescue !

Big Noise From Winnetka (rather tame version by Bob Crosby)

(As an aside: It's also famous for being the song with the greatest drum solo of all time.)

What I want you to do, of course, is rework the lyrics to be:

Big Noise From Wasilla

Here are the original lyrics to work with:

This is the story of a young girl who was the Einstein of the dance.
They called her Big Noise from Winnetka, against her no one stood a chance.
Big Noise blew in from Winnetka, stole each fellow's heart and then,
Big Noise blew in from Winnetka, Big Noise blew right out again.

Boys were sighing, their girlfriends crying, hearts were pounding when;
The Big Noise dances, hence romances, it's just astounding when;
Big Noise blew in from Winnetka, Big Noise blew right out again.

Stop! Look! Listen! Listen to the Big Noise.
Stop! Look! Listen! Listen to the Big Noise.

I am the one they call the Big Noise. I got to dance my way to fame.
I just blew in from Winnetka, that town will never be the same.
Now I had my fun, and yet there's just one who's got me from the start.
I'd love to conga a little bit longer but it keeps us apart.
Exit Big Noise from Winnetka, enter Big Noise in his heart.
(...etc.)

I'm feeling bummed. 1 week ago, McCain had all the momentum and blew it.

* praised Barack's service as community organizer, thus undercutting his own convention

* didn't respond to negative attacks by Barack

* "fundamentals with economy" gaffe on Monday
* AIG bailout flip-flop on Tuesday

So now that the MSM, Obama's campaign team, the DU and Kos can't come up with any substantial evidence of ethics violations by Palin, now they are resorting to hacking, a criminal act. Of course the AP is portraying Palin as the criminal for using a public email account for government business. According to the AP, the real criminal did Europe and the free world a service by revealing the transparency of Palin's government service. The AP and the media will refuse to admit that anyone with half a brain in government service understands that our emails are "open season", and available for access under the "open records act". I never say anything I would not like published in the AJC on my county email. The fact that Palin used public email speaks volumes about her ethics and transparency of government.

re: #207 buzzsawmonkey

I thought that drum solos began with Gene Krupa's big solo for "Drumboogie" in "Ball of Fire."

Ball of Fire was from 1941. Bob Haggart and Ray Bauduc recorded "Big Noise from Winnetka in 1938, beating Krupa by 3 years:

Big Noise From Winnetka is a jazz composition written by composer and bass player Bob Haggart. It was first recorded in 1938 and featured Bob Haggart and drummer Ray Bauduc, both members of the swing/dixieland orchestra Bob Crosby and the Bobcats. The recording is remarkable for its unusual duet feature: Haggart whistles the melody and plays the bass, while only Bauduc accompanies him on the drums. Halfway through the solo, Ray Bauduc starts drumming on the strings of the double bass, while Haggart continues to play with his left hand, creating a very percussive bass solo. After the success of the initial recording, they performed this song frequently for the rest of their careers. They performed the song in several films, most notably in 1941's "Let's Make Music" and 1943's "Reveille with Beverly". The original recording was featured on the soundtrack of Raging Bull.

Krupa was among the earliest drum soloists, but these two guys kind of pioneered the genre.

I asked her how about her assets.

She patiently explained that she had no assets at all but was paying her credit card debt every month and that was just as good as an asset.

I explained about debts and asstes and begged her not to buy but to save everything until she had at least 30% of the purchase price in cash. I think (hope) she listened.

Well we all know what the real truth behind this is. Push minorities into houses they can't afford, and then the majority white/asian population that actually EARNS money has to bail them out.

Actually Bush signed a bill this year banning minority and low income down payment assistance. Maxine Waters, et al has introduced a bill (H.R. 6694) which will reinstate the assistance and make it indefinite there was action on the bill yesterday.

Hey, I'm a minority, I have "type O" blood. Can I qualify for a loan?

264 Intrepid  Wed, Sep 17, 2008 6:28:18pm

Her main roles as VP will be:

1. Energy
2. Reform

She also wants to focus on families with special needs kids.

She is strongest when she talks about energy and reform. In her speeches she needs to start hitting on those two issues, and with specifics.

That's what's missing in McCain's speeches - the specifics of what he is going to do.

Just looking at the various state polls on RCP, this race really is EVEN right now. Barack will try to break it open with pounding McCain on his "economy is fundamentally good" gaffe.

McCain voted for the Financial reform bill while Obama and Biden voted against it and defeated it. Americans are not as dumb as the elite Democrat MSM and DNC command believe. We are know the Democrats led the charge to make every American family eligible for a home loan, regardless of poor financial status. As we watch the market dive most Americans know the Democrats are responsible for the residential collapse. Unless McCain attacks on this issue he will lose.

Basically, the race is completely up in the air, and anything could happen at this point. McCain has about 220 electoral votes locked up, Obama has about 200 locked up -- and ALL the remaining states are with 3 percentage points either way.

Polls are notoriously unreliable when races are close. This one will go down to the wire.

Unless McCain attacks Congress on Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, he's done. He's well positioned to do so, but he keeps relapsing to his "corrupt Wall Street" meme. Trouble is, it's the same song Obama is singing.

Is there corruption on Wall Street? Absolutely. But it's enabled by Democrats in Congress involved in the "crony capitalism" of which Obama complains.

McCain and his team drive me nuts. They're like political idiot-savants--flashes of brilliance followed by drooling idiocy. He must maintain his momentum to win this. Does he have any other tricks in his bag?

Sheez. The problem with the economy is "greed on Wall Street"?!?!

Either she doesn't understand the real issues, or she's being told to to stick to populist demagoguery.

Wall Street bought all kinds of paper which included mortage bundles. The problem is that nearly everyone underestimated the risk because they didn't see the mortage collapse coming.

The Mortage collapse in a large part is due to legislation passed during the Clinton Administration which FORCED lenders to lend to subprime credit more agressively. Then the low interest rates in 2002 and viola! Instant default crisis.

Is her solution MORE regulation? Yes, and Sarbannes-Oxley has already done so much for us.

As a free market conservative I'm not inspired with her answers at all. Then again McCain doesn't do much for me on that front either.

The economy is where these two could yet lose this election.

Unless McCain attacks Congress on Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, he's done. He's well positioned to do so, but he keeps relapsing to his "corrupt Wall Street" meme. Trouble is, it's the same song Obama is singing.

Is there corruption on Wall Street? Absolutely. But it's enabled by Democrats in Congress involved in the "crony capitalism" of which Obama complains.

McCain and his team drive me nuts. They're like political idiot-savants--flashes of brilliance followed by drooling idiocy. He must maintain his momentum to win this. Does he have any other tricks in his bag?

I think they knew what the risks were - that's why products like mortgage derivatives were created. Companies were forced to take on all of these loans that they knew would come due at some point. They created these products and swapped the risk like it was a game of hot potato. The ones getting burned now are the ones who bought too much or held on too long.

This do-nothing, drill nowhere Congress could and should have acted long ago to address this nation's critical need for energy.

Not to mention the fact that McCain has put several deep blue states (WA, OR, NJ) and some light blue ones (WI, MI, PA) in serious jeopardy for Obama. Obama probably never planned on spending more than a couple hundred bucks in WA and OR, not to mention NJ! He'll have to spend some of his hard earned dollars in those three states if he doesn't want them to slip away from him.

He already is planning to spend 39 million in Florida, even though he's pretty much lost that one.

Wall Street bought all kinds of paper which included mortage bundles. The problem is that nearly everyone underestimated the risk because they didn't see the mortage collapse coming.

I don't get this.

Lehman was financing what, 600 billion with just 30 billion. That's not rocket science.

All those bundled mortgage things? Come on. When you apply for a mortgage, you declare your income. All that data gets entered somewhere. You can't tell me someone couldn't have analyzed a particular bundle for risk, based on differences of loan amount vs. annual income.

They should've seen this coming. Interest rates were at historic lows, builders were going crazy, and a bubble formed.

The problem was, money was good, so nobody cared.

re: #325 kellino

The economy is where these two could yet lose this election.

And what miracle answers do Obama and Biden have?

Zilch.

An existing (partially trumped up) financial crisis does not mean that one candidate or another suddenly has the advantage. As you point out, the mortgage crash is mostly due to PC rules laid down during the Clinton era -- especially a new law that allowed minorities with bad credit to sue for discrimination if they are turned down for house loans. Banks figured it was simpler to just give them the loans than waste money defending frivolous lawsuits by the thousands. The banks' mistake was to assume that even if those with bad credit and no income defaulted on the loan, the collateral (ie. the house) would be worth more than the loan anyway, so they'd win either way.

When house values started dropping, and balloon payments suddenly started coming due five years later (coincidentally during the Bush administration, though he had nothing to do with it) -- disaster resulted.

It is only the MSM trying to whip up a panic-induced recession that could give an edge to Obama - -not the fact that one side or the other has better answers to the crisis.

If Palin is a plus and helps McCain win the White House, she was necessary.

But honest Republicans have to admit, as Krauthammer, Brooks, others, have admitted, that she should never have been picked if qualification is a criteria.

But although some on our side have the courage to make that admission, the Democrats and the media dare not admit that their top of the ticket is just as unqualified as Palin and he is running for President.

In a match of

An unqualified socialist radical running with a qualified wrong headed jerk

Looks like science has a second enemy, attacking from the other wing:

"Womanier Stuff"

"Biology is a socially constructed concept too - dated. It categorizes and defines ‘organisms’ a certain way - not wholistically - and not the only way possible, I might add."

"I am no science major, but I know Einstein’s theories and physics has already proven most of the fundamentals of biology to be faulty."

"It is not logical thought. What we were taught as logic is simply what we were taught and thus not logical, but you have to question it before you can see it as ‘not logical’. My views can be perceived as not ‘logical’ because they are deviating from taught beliefs. Logic doesn’t mean it makes sense. It means it follows a certain line of thinking. It is the certain line of thinking women have attempted to confront."

The assault on science, logic, and fact as "patriarchal" and "racist" continues to fester and slowly grow in damp corners of academe.

I recommend we stamp it out now, before it grows. These kind of false, but comforting [for losers] belief systems have a noxious way of growing into politically correct straight jackets -- I mean, who would ever think that a blatantly false system like multiculturalism would catch on?

Kill it before it grows.

That's not what I meant -- I didn't expect much from Hannity and sure enough, softball questions all the way.

I paid more attention to her "body language" because I watched that segment on O'Reilly earlier.

As I type, though, Rove is handing Skeletor his head.
I'm liking that.

re: #384 Alouette

I think she's doing just fine considering she was thrown in the shark tank on day one.

I think so too. It's partly her utter and total sincerity, and the fact that she is a principled person. She truly believes what she says.

You can always tell when someone really has the knowledge and facts behind their statements and when the other is just spouting off. I've never seen Alan pwned like that before. I felt bad for Skeletor.

I didn't.

9 days until the first debate- that is when we'll start seeing more real movement in the polls. A lot of Americans aren't paying attention to the politics at the moment, but they will watch the debates. Many undecideds will begin to move at that time.

Skeletor is an embarrassment. I saw some of that interview with the woman who survived the abortion last night and I wonder how this guy can look himself in the mirror. Although with that face, mirrors would be in short supply in my house.

Guys, It's been a fun evening, and I appreciate the discussion. I saw Noam last week and we both remarked how fun LGF was through the conventions. I like the chemistry I am seeing between the "players" and its a lot of fun. Cheer up Charles, we will muddle through this election and set our country straight! Lots, of problems, lots of opportunities. Keep the faith!

People are not that stupid.

They look around and see that they don't know people who are losing their jobs.

Indeed, and although people are having homes foreclosed, it's not like everyone is losing their house.

re: #342 jacksontn

Maybe but I am hoping Sarah Palin will be hailed as the most useful veep in history because if we don't pull this election off my kids daughters may be getting fitted for burkas.

During the Revolution 1/3 where loyalists, 1/3 sat and watched which way the winds blew, and 1/3 risk it all for Liberty and Union.

I have unbounded confidence in the 1/3 who will risk it all for Liberty.

1/3 watching will see the wind always blows toward liberty.

And remain 1/3/s ideas will be relegated to the ash heap of history.

It's been a long day, and my head hurts, but I thought she did ok. Nothing new or earthshaking though.

I liked her new hairdo.

While it's true that the financial collapse shouldn't have immediately benefited either campaign, McCain just HAD to step into the shit right off the bat with his gaffe. It was an unforced error, and that's how one loses elections. Remember Dukakis in the tank?

I bet Palin is cleaning up among all those fine Wisconsin ladies who keep their families together through the winter. She is as tough as they are, and as fair, and probably as ready with a hot dish as they are themselves.

For McCain defenders - how many days do you give him to mention his record on Fannie/Freddie?
