Okay, via Yglesias:
Katie Couric: If this doesn't pass, do you think there's a risk of another Great Depression?Uh, what?
Sarah Palin: Unfortunately, that is the road that America may find itself on. Not necessarily this, as it's been proposed, has to pass or we're gonna find ourselves in another Great Depression. But there has to be action taken, bipartisan effort – Congress not pointing fingers at this point at . . . one another, but finding the solution to this, taking action and being serious about the reforms on Wall Street that are needed.

Translation: 'We may be bound for a depression. We may not. The Bush bailout might be the thing to stave a depression off, if that is a possibility. It might not. But something has to be done by Congress. Action must be taken. Reforms are necessary. This is not a political stunt. I am not a political stunt. Here--watch this drive.'
Clearly, anyone saying this woman is too stupid to run a kiosk in the mall is a sexist.
everywhere like such as
Four more years. Four more years. Four more years. It's just more of the same! A genial buffooness, with the neocon crew pulling all the strings. Same as it ever was! Cool!
We didn't know it before we knew it, but now that we know it----oh, never mind.....
So is everyone still hanging out in the comments to the Naomi post?
It's time to move on. Sure IOZ made a mistake, but these things happen. Kind of like bombing a wedding in Afghanistan. I mean, we don't hold that against the US military do we?
Paul,
Why do you hate Southerners?
Thank you.

Come on, isn't it obvious? She's using Enki's Nam-Shub to disorient and confound our enemies. If we avoid putting our words in formations that make sense, then Al'Qaeda will never find out what we're up to. Honestly, do you all want to win the War on Terror, or what?
I agree with Anonymous that it's well past time to put Naomigate out to pasture. After all, what can that one discrete snafu really tell us about IOZ?
Now back to this powerful, cherry-picked albatross of Sarah Palin's. Girl, is she dumb....

Sorry, meant this one:

It's amazing - Palin can barely even string the proper cliches together. Even Bush managed that during his campaign. I don't think she's all that dumb, but she comes off exactly like the kid who didn't do her homework, then crammed for the final exam. Class, what can you tell us about the Spanish-American War?
"Well, Charlie, the Spanish-American War was a war fought between Spain and America a long time ago. It was highly significant to both parties at the time, and it is still significant, Charlie, in that we contine to study it to this day..."
I almost want to have children just so one day I can tell them about this election
I dunno, that's pretty pedestrian. That's more or less the standard line from everyone on everything.
"This might be such-and-such, unless its not, and I am supportive of the thing, but not in the manner proposed, though its important, which we cannot forget, but we must remember our values."
Remember: don't put all 700 billion up yer nose.
I'm guessing that global annual coke production doesn't come within an order of magnitude of $700 billion.
Er.... And isn't the $700 billion s'posed to be just kinda sorta the downpayment on the whole clusterfuck?

The posts on yglesias are more better than these; we are slipping.
I particularly liked bdbd who opined: "My personal belief is that this is indeed the road that US Americans may find themselves on."
Reading in reverse, and thusly not in the moment, it's interesting to see what all the fuss was about.
Sort of like the morons on SportsTalk radio jumping on Biden for saying - amongst the hundreds of phrases the man ejaculates on the stump each business day - that FDR calmed the Nation on the teevee after the Stock Market collapsed.
"LOL. He wasn't even the Preznit then!?!"
Oh YEAH, we sure showed him.
A bunch of closet fags jumping on IOZ, Dennis, and, though they dare not say so publicly, our mr. fun.
As if any of them would know what to do with themselves if these boys stopped posting their thoughts for a week, much less a month.
You're right, erin, we are slipping. But, then, it's been a long campaign. Like the economy, we could use a little time for ourselves. Maybe a cruise....

I'll answer like my Lancaster Co relatives:
C,mon IOZ are you just being argumentative or dense? It's obvious what she meant. Just because she didn't go to Harvard or something doesn't mean she's an idiot. You're just not hearing what she's saying because you don't want her to win.
...and on, and on ad infinitum
Oh, god, it gets worse. She actually took a few questions today. She was at Ground Zero, and began:
"Every American student needs to come through this area so that, especially this younger generation of Americans is, to be in a position of never forgetting what happened here and never repeating, never allowing a repeat of what happened here."

Chrissey: So what's your point? That Americans should forget what happened on 9/11?
Something happened on 9/11?
BOOYAH!!!
This is your mission:
You're standing at Ground Zero and the TV cameras are recording. All eyes are on you. You're expected to say something that will neither offend anyone nor land you up in Gitmo (your husband belonged to a separatist group).
Go.
I think it's very important that we, as a nation and also as a country, not have forgotten, or be forgotten. To my mind, forgetting is, if anything, most the thing that should not be taking place, at all.
That is my theory, which is mine, and was made by me.
I have another theory... ah heh humm
(sorry - i couldn't resist a MP reference... I am getting nothing done at work today...)
A bunch of closet fags jumping on IOZ, Dennis, and, though they dare not say so publicly, our mr. fun.
Guh-damn, that's some funny shit. Yep, we're all shakey-scared of "your" mr. fun, and clearly, making fun of IOZ for the equivalent of giving a speech with his pecker hanging out of his zipper and two yards of toilet paper stuck to his heel means we're closet cases. Says the number one comment section toady.
Funny shit, I say again.
What does mr. fundamental do when he's not making third-rate posts here that justifies him having a fanbase, of sorts?
Other than IOZ himself and Mike the salad-tosser, I don't know that he does have one.
In the Bedlam thread, he's setting himself up as The Interpreter to IOZ's The Oft-Mistaken, so I suppose he does serve some sycophantic purpose.
ain't nobody here but us anonymice, uh hyuck
for realsies though, you other anonymice are cute as the dickens! It's adorable how you're waging this little frontier war on IOZ's comments threads. Thank God for toolkits like yourselves, how could we ever maintain rigorous blawgging quality standards without stalwart heroes such as yourselves? Keep up the good fight, my faceless brethren!
You know all these other anons are the same person, right? RIGHT?
Tell a lie, you can tell there's about three. One uses what he'd probably think of as wry irony. That's what I think it is, anyway. And there's another one who's pretty clever. And then there's another. And then there's me, the one who objects to the food and the Latin and the like. Hi, there.
