6. And she appears to be a scold, too
I'm waiting for her to declare that the whole group has to stay late after school if the "bad one" doesn't confess.

This is terribly off notch.

4. She's the PTA Bitch from my son's school that caused the PTA
to get dissolved. Homeschooling person that was pissed she had to put her foster kid in public pre-school - so she wanted to control everyone/everything. The group lasted a month.

16. Hubby just came in saying how much Michelle is such a better speaker
Edited on Wed Sep-03-08 10:13 PM by eleny
Michelle has warmth and the humanity whereas Palin is like the grumpy school marm in a movie.

I think you got it right, K!

7. Repubs really overreached tonight with their message of hate
It will stir up the base ..... for a week. Then it's back to a downward spiral for them. Hubris is a dangerous thing.

10. Chimp has a smirk, she has a SCOWL
Do you see how she scrunches up her face when she wants to emphasize something?

I HOPE somebody got a photo of that! It will be PERFECT next to the McLame scowl!

Twin scowlers!

12. But that's the Republican way
Smug confidence -- speak as if what you're saying is unassailable fact

Ridicule -- Demean your opponent personally, not merely his/her ideas, but mannerisms, character, experience, background -- whatever's laying around handy.

Symbolism -- Raise the flag, put your hand on the Bible, and wonder aloud why "Under God" isn't incorporated into the country's name.

Attack the Media

Paint liberals as weak minded lazy ignorant traitors

Close by painting your ridiculous opponent as the worst sort of liberal.
