Grayson absolutely skewers Palin!


On Friday night, Sarah Palin came to Orlando, and attacked Rep. Alan Grayson. This is what she said:

"I got to meet quite a few candidates who are lining up in a contested primary who want to take out Alan Grayson. And I think Alan Grayson -- what can you say about Alan Grayson? Piper is with me tonight, so I won't say anything about Alan Grayson that can't be said around children. But thank you, Florida, for allowing candidates in a contested primary to duke it out over ideas and principles and values, all with the same goal, and that is unseating those who have such a disconnect from the people of America. That's what the goal is here in this race against Alan Grayson. Please fight hard, and do this for the rest of the country. Fight hard, and send a conservative to Washington, DC."

Palin, the former half-term Governor, current-nothing and future-even-less, charmed the all-Republican audience with her folksy folksiness and her homespun homespunnery. Atypically, Palin was wearing clothes that she had paid for herself. At the end of the event, she shared her recipe for mooseface pie.

In response to Palin's attack on Rep Grayson, Grayson actually complimented Palin. Grayson praised Palin for having a hand large enough to fit Grayson's entire name on it. He thanked Palin for alleviating the growing shortage of platitudes in Central Florida. Grayson added that Palin deserved credit for getting through the entire hour-long program without quitting. Grayson also said that Palin really had mastered Palin's imitation of Tina Fey imitating Palin. Grayson observed that Palin is the most-intelligent leader that the Republican Party has produced since George W. Bush.

When asked to comment about what effect Palin's criticism might have, Grayson pointed out, "As the Knave's horse says in Alice in Wonderland, 'dogs will believe anything.'" Earlier, as the Orlando Sentinel reported, Grayson said, "I'm sure Palin knows all about politics in Central Florida, since from her porch she can see Winter Park," which is part of Grayson's district.

Grayson said that the Alaskan chillbilly was welcome to return to Central Florida anytime, as long as she brings lots of money with her, and spends it. "I look forward to an honest debate with Governor Palin on the issues, in the unlikely event that she ever learns anything about them," Grayson added, alluding to Politifact's "liar, liar, pants on fire" evaluation of much of what Palin has said .

Scientists are studying Sarah Palin's travel between Alaska and Florida carefully. They hope to learn more about the flight patterns of that elusive migratory species, the wild Alaskan dingbat.

:rofl:

Hey, the more of a joke she becomes, the less likely it is that she'll ever reach the Oval Office - unless of course she has one of those sweetheart-deal contractors up in Wasilla build a mock-up version of it for her in her backyard (where she'll be able to see Russia from its portico).

44. You gotta be kiddin me. She has LESS brains than the average female any day and
She constantly uses her SEXUALITY to get men to listen to her. If she was an unattractive woman do you think they would give her the time of day? Women either. Unfortunatley. No way. Shows just how lame a small percentage of Americans are. The way she carries those poor kids around to make her seem like a nice "mommy" when she's really "mommy dearest" is pathetic. The school age children should be in school. Otherwise they are going to turn out just like her ridiculous self....illiterate! Palin's a total crock and a racist to boot. Wake up. Men...just watch her on youtube and do what ya gotta do so we can get rid of this dangerous witch.

49. The neoCONs are all parasites and blood sucking freeloaders.
The theoCONs and the neoCONs have tricked the unsuspecting repub drone voters into believing any bullshit the GOPer top dogs peddle.

"THE CAUSE" is as much alive today in neorepublican America, as it was in 1861. Abe was duped and died for nothing, if the neoCONs win out. The Southern aristocracy is trying to rise again and this time the American worker of every race, creed and color is about to become the slaves. Bust the unions and the middle class and the USA/CSA will revert to pre-Civil War "Civility". The days of the "Master" and slave, with no in between. The "Masters" loved the old days and the old ways. The southern aristocracy have been trying to bring back their kind of country since 1865.

Sarah and her friends and family are the most likely to suceed...

Married to oil, power, money and................Todd (who's had a gazillion affairs).

Pardon my use of words. It's all I have left after fighting this piece of shit in pitbull lipstick for years. She ran against MY candidates, and had her son (who was NOT in Iraq yet) threaten to beat me up. I have tapes and witnesses.

Edited on Mon Mar-15-10 03:52 AM by denimgirly
And grayson held his ground and just kept jabbing at republicans. And as expected the CNN hosts quickly came out to defend repubs constantly. Where were/are they when it comes time to defend dems. They never defended dems about death panels...but here is grayson saying republicans want people to die if they get sick which is true and the MSM is all up in arms.

Palin, the former half-term Governor.....

It is PERFECT! Forget this BS about calling her the former governor......she was a half term governor......

I'm dead serious. we need to get all the progressive media to keep referring to her this way.....keep reminding everyone that she didn't finish her term. It should be part of her public identity like John the Baptist....Palin, the former half term governor......her name should never be used with out this applet

"Piper is with me tonight, so I won't say anything about Alan Grayson that can't be said around children." :eyes:

Man, it's a damn good thing those kids of hers...or anybody else's for that matter...never, ever watch TV, or read newspapers or magazines, or go on the Internet to see what's happening... :wow:

Their tender little ears might be exposed to some pretty rough stuff otherwise.:yoiks:

54. Uh, oh. Grayson is trying to match Sarah's stand-up comedy skills.
Doesn't he realize he'll never match her laugh-track aided perfect performance on the Tonight Show?

You really can find Sarah smack downs everywhere. I was just reading Nathan Winograd's blog the other day (leader of the No-Kill movement) and there was an old post called "Going Rogue." It was going after HSUS's CEO Wayne Pacelle, but the paragraph comparing him to Palin made me laugh.

"His recent blog post on the issue of No Kill is nothing less than a fanciful depiction of the World According to Pacelle (WAP), a work of fiction that is only rivaled in its sheer magnitude of truth avoidance by “Going Rogue,” Sarah Palin’s excursion into the absurd."

One of my favorite lines from him is still, "The party of no is well on their way to becoming the party of nobody." :D

64. Grayson is no pushover. The bigger question is why the Republican Party allows
female fools to represent Republicans and work with the media to get them coverage? We all know the male ones, especially from the first eight years of this century, but female representatives have never been used this way that I can remember?

Bachmann
Harris
Schmidt
Coulter
Palin
forgot the other one

72. So, they don't have all old white men as their faces
Plus, it allows them to claim sexism if somebody attacks them.

69. Don't know her recipe for 'moose face pie', but....
...for those that don't know the recipe for Moose-Shit Pie, I'll tell ya'. First you make a perfect lattice-crust in a huge pie plate...then you go out and find a fresh pile of...well, maybe I need to tell the joke first. Punch-lines are so much better when you understand the 'bit'.

Seems that there was this logger - probably in Alaska or something - that got a contract to deliver a lot of logs in a hurry. He was in such a hurry that when he got to his 'camp' he realized that he'd failed to bring along a cook. With no time to get one, and nobody in that group of 'Ax Men' willing to volunteer to be one, he picked one with the proviso that the first person that complained about the cookin' would be the cook for the rest of the way. Well needless to say the 'cook' hated it...the 'food' sucked...but nobody dared complain. As the days and weeks wore on, and nobody complaining, the 'cook' decided he would have to do something desperate. Right after breakfast - another sorry excuse for a meal - he went out and found himself a big pile of fresh, steaming, moose shit...filled a bucket with it and brought it back...prepared the aforementioned pie-crust...and baked the thing.

Right after what passed for dinner, he brought out the best-looking 'mince-meat-looking' pie anybody had ever seen...the guys were ecstatic at the sight of something that actually looked 'fit to eat'. The first one dug in and immediately exclaimed...'God Damn! Mooseshit Pie!....But good!'

Sorry, I suppose that was what is known as a long run for a short slide, but I've gotten laughs out of it for 40 years.

Shoot, I'll bet Sarah's probably fed Mooseshit Pie to that husband of hers...and I'll also bet that the Pee Dubya'd wuss hasn't complained yet.

A meticulous and thorough evisceration of Palin, with humor no less. Awe-fucking-some.

Edited on Mon Mar-15-10 04:14 PM by Proud Liberal Dem
:woohoo: :applause: :yourock: :headbang: :fistbump: :rofl:

and about time somebody did, I might add. She REALLY tangled with the wrong person this time (did she even know who he was anyway other than that he is a Democratic Congressman? I kinda doubt it myself). I only hope that there's enough of her left after Grayson's full frontal counter-attack that for him or somebody else to be able to do it to her again.....and again......and again......until she ends up back in Alaska- FOR GOOD.

I LOVE this guy!!

Please, Sarah, debate Alan Grayson. Please, please, please.

93. Too funny....I will not be surprised when Sarah Palin
reveals who she really is, Andy Kaufman in drag. This is all too bizarre and bellyrole funny to be real: I would bet John Waters is writing a script for this fiasco with Divine as Sarah siting on her magic porch. One thing is for certain, she will not be crossing swords with Allan Grayson again; He is turning out to be the Cyrano de Bergerac of politics, and he has only just entered stage left.

99. But that's impossible, really.
It's like debating the wind - there's no THERE, there. What statement has she ever made that you can debate? It's all vacuous platitudes and empty, nonsense phrases. I think his response is about as direct as you can get with her.
