Please, please do not buy Sarah Palin’s book which is about to be released to the tune of 1.5 million copies.  Lest you think Palin suddenly developed enough intelligence to allow her to put together coherent sentences and then form them into paragraphs, she had Lynn Vincent, editor for the evangelical magazine WORLD, ghost write it.  I hope Ms Vincent was well paid for the excruciating effort it must have been.
The reason I ask, nay demand, that you not buy her book is because if, heaven forbid, she actually sells all 1.5 million copies she will make a boat load of money which she can then add to the 6-figure amount she copped for making a speech in China criticizing American foreign policy.  If she comes up with more money-making ventures she may accumulate enough to run a campaign for the presidency in 2012. 
I know any intelligent person would move to Outer Mongolia if Palin came anywhere close to running this country.  So, again I say, DO NOT BUY HER BOOK.  If you are absolutely intent on finding out what she has to say get it from your local library. There are approximately 16,600 public libraries in the US so if everyone who wanted to read it borrowed it from a library 99% of her 1.5 million copies would collect dust in the rock bottom remainders bin.
And, just a bit of information about the picture above. Those are two dead foxes she has draped around her shoulders.  Notice, too, that the idiots behind her are also draped in animal fur.  Palin is in favor of aerial hunting of wolves and bears and spent $400,000 of state money on a media campaign in an attempt to convince Alaskans to support aerial hunting. Guess the people in the picture are those who she was able to convince.
This picture shows Palin sitting on her couch with a dead bear.  Nice.

Senator Ted Kennedy

Massachusetts Senator Edward “Ted” Kennedy, known as the  “Lion of the Senate”,  will be laid to rest this evening at Arlington National Cemetery near both of his slain brothers, Robert Kennedy and John Kennedy.  His flag draped coffin was first taken to the John F. Kennedy Presidential Library where an estimated 45,000 people filed past.  Many of Senator Kennedy’s friends, colleagues and family members spoke of their memories and affection for him.
Kennedy was a champion of the people and fought hard in matters of civil rights, equal rights and dignity for all people.  Sen. Chris Dodd, one of Kennedy’s close friends and colleagues summed the man up in this way:  “The issue was people in the shadows, people who don’t have lawyers and lobbyists, people who don’t have advocates”.  Dodd said “you could never have a better advocate than Ted Kennedy”.  He said, “When he was in your corner, he was in it forever”.
With the death of his two older brothers Ted Kennedy became the family patriarch and was there for the entire family in times of happiness and in time of sorrow.  His nephew, former US. Rep. Joseph P. Kennedy II told of the advice his uncle gave him.  “He was telling me, never, ever, ever, ever, give up.  You stay in the race.  And if people don’t have health care, you stay in the race.  If people don’t have adequate housing, you stay in the race.  If people aren’t being treated properly, you stay in the race”.  And that is exactly what Senator Ted Kennedy did.  His place in the senate and in the lives of Americans will be very hard to fill.  He was one of the last of a dying breed of politicians who truly cared about his country and the people in it.
Senator Kennedy’s funeral Mass will be at the Basilica of Our Lady of Perpetual Help beginning at 10:30 a.m.  President Obama will deliver the eulogy.  Following the Mass he will be taken to his final resting place at Arlington National Cemetery.
Yes, the Lion sleeps tonight and millions mourn his passing.

People everywhere, from every walk of life, mourn the passing of Walter Cronkite. From the doorman at the building where Walter Cronkite lived, who said “He was friendly, open.  He liked to give his opinion and ideas…a very lovable gentlemen”, to President Obama who spoke what so many feel by saying, “But Walter was always more than just an anchor.  He was family.  He invited us to believe in him, and he never let us down”.
Hollywood celebrities, politicians, sports figures, NASA, fellow collegues are all giving their thoughts on this most venerated man.
Katie Couric said “he set the standard for us  all”. From Brian Williams …”our industry has lost its living giant”.  Barbara Walters expressed her feelings by saying, “There never was and there never will be another Walter Cronkite.  We trusted him and that trust was well founded.  He was also a jolly and supportive friend.  He will be missed by each of us individually who knew him and by the whole country who loved him”.
But it was what George Clooney said that comes closest to the way I feel.  Clooney stated, “He was the most important voice in our lives for thirty years.  And that voice made people reach for the stars.  I hate the world without Walter Cronkite”.

Rumors are flying like spit balls in a third grade classroom.  What, exactly, is behind Sarah Palin’s resignation as governor of Alaska?  The announcement came on July 3 and was as clear and understandable as anything coming from Palin.
I would like to offer a quote from Stephen Markley’s blog site “Off The Markley” which describes Palin’s babbling to a tee.  Markley attributes the actual quote to the movie Billy Madison with a slight departure from the original.
”Governor Palin, what you’ve just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard.  At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought.  Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it.  I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul”.  That pretty much covers anything she has said in the past and will say in the future.
From what I did understand of her resignation press conference,  her reasons for resigning were because of negative media coverage and the rising cost, for her and for the state, of having to fight ethics charges.  There is also speculation that she is clearing the road to run for president in 2012 (cringe!).  She has even alluded to the idea that she can affect positive change outside the government, which, i believe, would be better than inside the government where she might have some influence.
She was asked in an ABC interview if she thought there would be the same problems involving the ethics investigation if she were to run for president, and her answer was, “I don’t think it will be the day after day after day of ethics violation charges that are frivolous, that are ridiculous.  I think on a national level your department of law there in the White House would look at this, the things we have been charged with, and automatically throw them out, not make somebody hire their own personal attorney to get out there and fight”.  Stupidity, naiveté, media windfall, all in one sentence.
Levi Johnston, former fiancé of Bristol Palin and father of their child and Sarah Palin’s grandson, Tripp, says he knows the reason for the resignation.  He claims to have heard the governor saying it would be nice to take advantage of the “lucrative deals” that were being offered.  According to Johnston, Palin seemed very interested in a reality show (kidding, right?) and a book deal (again with the kidding).
Whatever Palin does we will surely be treated to more idiocy.  She’s beginning to rival W in the Dumb-Things-Said arena.  Who do you think is more deserving of that honor?

With no prior warning, Sarah Palin announced that she will step down as governor of Alaska.  She used a basketball analogy in explaining how difficult her political life is.  She said, “you are naive if you don’t see a full court press from the national level picking away right now”.  She continued with the analogy by likening herself to a good point guard who protected the ball while keeping her eye on the basket so she would know when to pass.
It is true that Palin has received a lot of negative press since she was announced as John McCain’s running mate in the 2008 presidential race, but she gives the media so much to work with. And, comedians everywhere will have to find someone else to poke continual fun at, which will not be at all difficult.  Summing it up beautifully, Shecky Sheinbaum, headliner at Cincinnati’s Laugh Hut says, “the world of comedy has lost one of its greatest targets.
Speculation abounds concerning the reason for this decision.  Is she really resigning for the “good of Alaska”?  She maintains that she can “affect positive change outside of government taking the  fight for what’s right for Alaska in a new direction”.  And what might that direction be?  Possibly south the lower 48?
Which brings us to another speculation which that it will give her the freedom to travel the country making herself better known in all 50 states as a precursor to a run at the 2012 race for president.  Political analyst Charlie Cook feels if she is planning to run for president she has made the right decision in stepping down.  He said, “She could be a good governor or a serious candidate for president, but she can’t be both”.  On the other hand, John Weaver, former McCain adviser says the best preparation would be to “be a good governor and get re-elected…not the point guard who walks off the court.  Vin Weaver, former member of the Minnesota House stated, “Of all the things that are expected of you when you are elected to office, the most minimal is serving out your term”.
And then, some speculate that her resignation might be caused by the fact that she may be facing federal charges of embezzlement for using Wasilla Sports Complex building materials for her residence while mayor of that city.  It is rumored that federal investigators have been looking into these allegations for some time and an indictment could be coming very soon.
Well, Palin has always been a land mine of contradictions so, after stating most adamantly that she is not a quitter…she quit.
