Why Todd is hanging around like a bad smell

[canetoad]

I read a post in LBN yesterday querying Todd's (Tawd :)) role in Palin's campaign and it got me thinking.

Having him hover all the time is supposed to project the image of an independent woman who is still 'wifely' enough to take counsel from her butch hubby. Another big slap in the face for women and an even bigger one for thinking voters.

1. He's a pussy!

A real man would be out earning his keep instead of standing behind his wife and looking like a DWEEB.

2. I wonder who makes the quiche in the palin house

Him or Her?

[liberal renegade]

6. Alaskans

don't eat quiche. Unless of course it's a moose quiche.

[seabeyond]

24. and you are a dick

isnt that fun. just throw out body parts as insult.

[Matariki]

26. lol

hey, I'm wondering though - I always thought pussy derived from 'pussy cat' as in 'scaredie cat'. Hence the implication that the person is timid and afraid.


from The Urban Dictionary:

pussy
1. Could imply “Vagina"
2. Could imply "Cat"
3. Could imply "coward"

Note: when referring to someone as a "pussy" cowardly meaning is derived from def.2 as in "scaredy cat". Calling someone a "Vagina" does not make sense. Calling someone a "scaredy cat" does. Common miscommunication that results in A LOT of angered women.

3. We were watching a clip on KO tonight and my husband, who hasn't wanted to follow all this, asked...

WHO IS THAT GUY BEHIND MCCAIN?
THAT ONE -- THE GUY WITH THE GOOFY FACE. WHO IS IT?

ha ha ha... Honey, that's the dude, Todd Palin.

My husband says, "what's he doing all the time behind McCain? why is he in the picture?"

Inquiring minds want to know.


But then... do you ever ever ever see McCain without Cindy?

[canetoad]

4. Haven't seen much of McCain

i'm in Oz ya know! But I have an unhealthy and ghoulish fascination with the Palins since the VP pick. It's like watching a bad, bad TV commercial come to life.

18. Stephanie Miller said this morning

that he looks like a male stripper waiting for the music to start, but it never does.

:rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

[DrZeeLit]

21. Thanks for my first BIG LAUGH of the day. Really. Thank. You. Snorted coffee all over the screen.

[Jane Austin]

23. So glad to make you laugh!

Isn't that the perfect description?

:chortle:

[eowyn_of_rohan]

22. We cracked up watching "Tawd" in that clip

He standing on the right behind McCain, and Megan McCain on the left. They were applauding something then Todd stole a look at Megan McCain's chest! LOL! We replayed it a few times - too funny. What an idiot.

[knowbody0]

5. was he not supposed to be "mr. mom"

while sarah earned the bread for the family?

[canetoad]

13. So what is he?

oil man or commercial fisherman? Must admit, I haven't heard a word from his mouth. Any links to clips of him speaking?

[Beregond2]

7. He's the personification of redneck asshole.

[Barack_America]

8. He's on a quest from the AIP to infiltrate the Republican party as deeply as possible. nt

9. Who's watching the kids?

[Bluebear]

10. Being a fundy, she has to consult him on every decision.

"Women should not speak in the forum, and if they have anything to ask, let them ask their husbands at home", so says her owner's manual.

[bsdetector]

11. In her case, the Owned Manual.

;-)

12. In her case, the Owned Manual.

[canetoad]

16. Bingo

Bluebear, they are trying to project a hypocritical image of a woman capable of being VP while all the time Tawd is skulking in the background. Cognitive dissonance anyone?

[faithfulcitizen]

14. lol! I love your title.

[canetoad]

17. Lol ty

one of the earthier aussie metaphors.

[Contrary1]

15. Let Todd be,

By following the pit bull around, he is helping to spend McCain's campaign funds. I only wish the entire family was there.

Every little bit helps.

[Tulum_Moon]

19. WoW!

This is FUCKING UNBELIEVABLE!

[babylonsister]

20. Whatever their relationship, there are lots of kids I hope they love. nt

[seabeyond]

25. from day one we have known he shadows her as she claims feminism.

YES... it is a huge slap in the face from a party that hates women

[ncteechur]

27. I imagine he does whatever the f&%k he is told. I don't think he is too smart.

[Myrina]

28. ... having grown up in Northern WI around hockey-dudes ...

... and their female hangers on ... I gotta agree.

He was probably 'the cool jock' in high school with an IQ of about 85 ... and of course Sarah was Homecoming Queen, so
of course they 'fell in love' and got married, and never bothered their little brains to think beyond the local
hockey rink and mundane matters such as buying a new snowmobile.

Its frightening, actually, how representative they really are of 'joe and jane sixpack'. :scared:

[Snotcicles]

29. No telling what kind of crap he could get himself into if they took their eyes off of him. nt

[Gold Metal Flake]

31. Absofukkenlutely.

I think Todd is smarter than we give him credit for. I also suspect he is a fundy dominionist freak. He would find powerful friends in the Air Force and the Pentagon.

[annabanana]

30. I think she officially has to run everything past him before

she decides anything... Their church insists on it...

[KoKo]

32. Todd will be "Third in Line"....Shadow VEEP/PRES...and YES they could Over Ride the Constitution

they've gotten away with everything else. How about the "First Dude" as President or Veep if something happens to McSame?

[mitchum]

33. He's a suitcase pimp
