Imagine if Michelle Obama sent emails like Todd Palin
Imagine if Michelle Obama sent emails like Todd Palin

The Mudflats blog http://www.dailykos.com/storyonly/2010/10/6/908102/-Imagine-if-Michelle-Obama-sent-emails-like-Todd-Palin revealed an email yesterday from Alaskan Senate hopeful and all around teabagger, Joe Miller. Turns out there's a little trouble in paradise Alaska between Miller the Teabagger and Sarah Palin the Teabagger Annointer. Sarah promoted him (since he was the the teabagger candidate) and Joe Miller found a way to piss her off.

The email in question copies an email sent to Miller by Todd Palin, husband of Sarah. Mudflats contends the email suggests Sarah is planning to run for president in 2012. If she were to win, we would have, as First Gentlemen, a borderline illiterate.

Imagine if emails like this turned up having been written by Michelle Obama.

2. Imagine if Obama was a known cocaine user and drunk well into his mid-30's
Edited on Wed Oct-06-10 08:38 AM by alcibiades_mystery
Imagine if Barack Obama had even the tiniest hint of any arrest record at all.

Imagine if Barack Obama had pregnant teen-aged daughters.

Imagine if Barack Obama went on a shopping spree with campaign cash.

Imagine if Barack Obama ever said anything even one-twentieth as nasty about another politician as Palin's ordinary stump speeches.

Imagine if Barack Obama went to five or six colleges and barely graduated with a C average.

It's called white privilege, and it's goddamn real as can be. And all the (almost uniformly white) people screaming and yelling that Obama should ATTACK ATTACK ATTACK seem terminally incapable of understanding the cultural minefield that the man is treading on at every fucking step.

6. I think it is more than that
If any democrat had those problems, they would be toast. Look at Edwards. It is another example of It's ok if you are a republican. They can murder (literally, in Scarbourough's case) and be "forgiven".

3. Funny how we don't hear much from Taud
Edited on Wed Oct-06-10 08:39 AM by lunatica
except occasionally we find out he's deeply involved. He probably tells her what to put on her facebook page. She gets all the glory and he gets all the benefits.

My opinion is that their marriage is a partnership in crime. That they actively sit and talk about how they can get richer. I could go as far as to say he's the brains in the marriage, but that would insult brains.

10. You can see ALL the blacked out email addresses
Well, before Mudflats apparently took the link down that was provided in the DKos Diary, Mudflats showed the email as a PDF:

http://mudflats.files.wordpress.com/2010/10/palinemail.pdf

And depending on what you use to view PDF documents, you can view the addresses just by hovering your cursor over it,
... OR select "Click to view as document"
... OR copying it as is, and then pasting it into an MS Word document.

I guess this would be FOI in action.

11. And, as usual for a RWer, I can't find ANY punctuation that was used properly.
No periods, no commas, run-on sentences, periods where there should be question marks, an apostrophe in shoes... an abomination all around.

15. Punctuation is For East Coast Elitists!
Real Americans don't need commas or spell check for that matter...

18. why are we comparing that fool to any Obama
hell they are not worthy to carry Sasha's book bag. As much as they keep those kids out of school they probably don't even know WTH a book bag is.

For the palins reading a book (unless its theirs) is worse than heroin. Can't have the kids addicted to reading. They just might start asking uncomfortable questions.
