Sarah Palin vs. the "Elite" Republicans

Al Barger — Thu, 13 Nov 2008 13:43:41 EST

Anti-Palin Republican "elites" ain't really so elite.
Syndicated conservative columnist Kathleen Parker, of whom I have sometimes been a fan, made waves in the 2008 election with her vigorous distaste for Sarah Palin. She went so far as to call on her to drop off the ticket because she was supposedly so ill-qualified.She's milked the controversy and negative responses that she's gotten for...

Bitches Get Stuff Done: The "Palin Doctrine" on SNL's Election Eve Presidential Bash

Al Barger — Tue, 4 Nov 2008 09:00:05 EST

This 'joking' baring of the fangs re-inforces my impression that Sarah Palin's bitch enough for the job.
Funny that Tina Fey doesn't seem to like or support Sarah Palin. On SNL as Palin, at one point she described herself as, among other things, "one part high school bitchy." But then Tina Fey some months ago on the Weekend Update before Palin's emergence famously declared that "bitch is the new black" and that bitches...

Sarah Palin Ain't Much of a Redneck

Al Barger — Tue, 28 Oct 2008 02:17:19 EDT

Todd Palin and Levi Johnston should have taken care of this Troopergate long ago.
Sarah Palin ain't much of a redneck. Don't get me wrong: I got a lot of love for Sister Sarah, but I am a little disappointed with her and Todd regarding this Troopergate business.They've got this dick of a state trooper ex-brother-in-law screw-up named Mike Wooten. Frankly, you can just take one glance at this guy and intuit that he...

Racism, My White A$$

Al Barger — Sun, 12 Oct 2008 23:38:30 EDT

Damned racists sonsabitches won't vote for Lord God B Hussein Obama! I think I'ma declare a jihad!
As a racially insensitive White Male Oppressor, I'm several steps past fed up with the racism of Barack Obama, his allies and supporters. Even leaving out the infamous Rev Wright, Obama himself and his campaign organization have directly gone to racial nonsense repeatedly. Why, saying anything about his Fannie friend Franklin Raines is...

Fatimah Ali and Her Own Little Race War

Al Barger — Tue, 16 Sep 2008 22:49:36 EDT

Heads up Whitey - the race war is ON NOW!!!
Dear Miss Fatimah- You seem like a nice enough gal and all, but I'm somewhat less than entirely impressed with your recent silly talk about a "race war." The money quote of your 9-2-2008 Philadelphia Daily News column states "If McCain wins, look for a full-fledged race and class war.." Riiight. The wicked Matt Drudge...

Sarah Palin the Moose Hunter Makes B. Hussein Obama Her Beyatch

Al Barger — Wed, 10 Sep 2008 04:37:22 EDT

If Barack Obama can't handle this dumb hick moose hunter, is he ready to deal with the likes of Vladimir Putin?
Coming into the Republican convention last week, everyone was all worried about Hurricane Gustav ripping things up. But of course it has turned out to be Hurricane Sarah that's doing the damage. She's destroying Obama, who was entirely ripe for the skewering. The general line has been that Obama was too great and dignified for even our...

Barack Obama, The New Yorker, and the Inoculation of Satire

Al Barger — Mon, 21 Jul 2008 11:16:47 EDT

So here I am, the goat again. (Hey, that could be my epitaph.)
For starters, I'm obviously a racist. You can tell it because I used B. Hussein Obama's middle name.That's pretty much evidence enough in some quarters. But if pronouncing his whole legal name is racist, then what about this image from The New Yorker and cartoonist Barry Blitt?First, that's a beautiful image. Mr Blitt boiled a...

Movie Review: WALL-E, The Wicked Scare Tactics Of A Cute Robot

Al Barger — Mon, 14 Jul 2008 18:14:18 EDT

It's wicked when Pentecostals or Disney indoctrinate children through apocalyptic fear...
WALL-E is an ugly movie on multiple levels. It is literally ugly to look at. It is ugly in its philosophical vision, and it's worse than ugly in the heavy-handed way that it seeks to propagandize young children through fear.But first things first. WALL-E is a cute but very lonesome animated robot, an intergalactic trash compactor all alone on...

Heller, Eugene Robinson, and Dred Scott

Al Barger — Sat, 28 Jun 2008 15:38:40 EDT

the people have to have a right to keep guns exactly in order to keep the military regulated
Thank Rand for the SCOTUS decision in Heller this week, in which for the first time in two centuries plus, the Supreme Court specifically recognized that the Second Amendment "right of the people to keep and bear arms" in fact recognizes keeping and bearing guns to be an individual right of the people. This is a pretty obvious point by,...

My Libertarian Blues and Ron Paul in Disgrace (or How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love Hillary Clinton)

Al Barger — Tue, 6 May 2008 08:17:26 EDT

Ann Coulter, Al Barger and Richard Mellon Scaife can't ALL be wrong in supporting Hillary.
There's always trouble in the land, but all in all I personally feel pretty good about the future of America and the world at large. The country's doing okay, and we'll muddle through well enough whether we elect the giant douche or the turd sandwich.But I'm not feeling near so good about my Libertarian Party, Ron Paul and the...
