My To-Do List
Tuesday, February 9th, 2010Sarah Palin is a respectful individual
Friday, December 18th, 2009Sarah Palin, the great white vaginal hope for many women who celebrate good looks and winking over intelligence and ability, was criticized yesterday for being spotted wearing a hat upon which the name of Senator John McCain had been blacked out. It was viewed by many as an attack on the ex-presidential candidate, even though Palin said that it was just her attempt to be incognito. (Because obviously, buying a different hat would have been very difficult.)
Critics, however, point to a few other actions she's taken that appear to be an attack on the American political system, the Republican party, and more specifically, John McCain:
- The ownership of Twitter account @JohnMcCainSucks has been traced back to her IP address.
- Recently supported a ban on the existence of AARP magazines anywhere on federal government property.
- Started a movement to have the "donkey punch" renamed the "elephant punch".
- Keeps mailing McCain tourist brochures from the real Hanoi Hilton.
- Asked Russia if they'd let her shoot wolves from a helicopter if she changed nationalities and took Alaska with her.
- Switched out McCain's Metamucil with high intensity horse laxative.
- Ninjas.
- Switched out his Medic Alert bracelet with a DNR one.
- Her car's bumper sticker says "I BRAKE FOR NADER".
- Faces Mecca five times a day and prays.
- Said yes when McCain asked her to run for VP.
Everybody have a great weekend!
Why I like Sarah Palin
Saturday, October 4th, 2008I don't.
However, a lot of people do. And I cannot understand it. I can understand what people see in John McCain – four years ago, if Bush hadn't run or if he had run as an independent, I would have voted for him. I think he's become a shill for his party now, but I can still see the attraction and I can see why.
The support for Palin baffles me. So I would like to ask my readers to speak up. I'm not going to judge you or make fun of you or make light of your decision. I don't want commenters bashing people for their decision.
I just want to know what you see in Sarah Palin that makes you think she's worthy of being Vice President.
Is it that:
1. She's a woman and you want to support a woman in the White House? If yes, did you support Hillary Clinton? If you are one of the Clinton supporters who switched from Clinton to Palin simply because of her sex, does the fact that each woman has a diametrically opposite viewpoint make you reconsider your choice?
2. If no to #1, do you see yourself in Sarah Palin? Does she feel like one of us? Is it that she feels like a mom with a family? If you do identify with her on a personal level, do you think that you would make a good Vice President? If you knew that her household income was almost $200K and she has assets of over $2 Million, would you still feel like she's just one of us?
3. If no to #1 and 2, do you think that she's an impressive leader? Have you done research and learned about her problems as mayor? About her issues as governor? Do you think that someone who is a Vice President of the United States should be able to name a major newspaper or magazine? What about a Supreme Court case? Do you think that she would do a good job as President when she seems uninformed in almost every area of running the world's most powerful country?
4. If no to #1-3, what is it? Why else do you like her?
Thank you for your input. I try to remain objective, and in a situation where I cannot, it's very helpful to have different perspectives so that I can see something that I must be missing.
I don't post on Sundays anymore.
Sunday, September 7th, 2008The Halloween party is less than two months away, and you're all invited. For more information, go to the Halloween page at http://www.avitable.com/neverwas/. It has all of the details you'll need, including:
The raffle tickets! Three lucky people will win t-shirts, and one lucky person is going to win a roundtrip plane ticket to Orlando for the party. We're only 19 tickets away from selling enough tickets to give away the prize. The raffle ends in three weeks, so go buy your tickets now!
T-shirts! We have an exclusive T-shirt design by Dave2 from Blogography, along with designs by local artists, including myself. A percentage of each T-shirt sale goes to the Halloween Party fund, and gives you a chance to be a part of the hugest celebration of the year, even if you can't go!
Hotel information! We have special prices for a nearby hotel, but the rooms need to be reserved soon. There's shuttle service to and from the party, and a reserved block of rooms just for the party.
Child photos! As part of an interactive element of the Halloween photos, I need photos of you as a kid or young teen. A few people are waiting on SASEs, and those are on the way. If you want an envelope to send it to me, I'll scan it and send it right back. Otherwise, scan it and email it to me at my first name (adam) at my last name (avitable) dot com.
RSVP! I'd like to know who might be coming, so please go visit the Halloween page and use the comments on that page to let me know. It will be a big help.
If you're not interested in the Halloween party, here are two new T-shirts I designed:
