Ain’t That The Truth

I found this image by following a link from one of the comments at Moonbattery on their 2nd post about the really thin AP story about “errors” in Sarah Palin’s new book Going Rogue. A book that’s been on the best seller lists for 50 days and it hasn’t even been released yet! Plus it already has a possibly-copyright-infringing counter book called Going Rouge out there already. She Who Must Be Destroyed At Any Cost!!!!11! Total pants shitting hysteria IMO.

Yeah, I saw the AP story when it came out. Palin writes a 432 page book, and some news agency sicks 11 fact checkers on the thing to attempt a debunking. ELEVEN. And they come up with a whole 6 “errors”, several of which are really, really, really thin ...

PALIN: Says she made frugality a point when traveling on state business as Alaska governor, asking “only” for reasonably priced rooms and not “often” going for the “high-end, robe-and-slippers” hotels.

THE FACTS: Although she usually opted for less-pricey hotels while governor, Palin and daughter Bristol stayed five days and four nights at the $707.29-per-night Essex House luxury hotel (robes and slippers come standard) .

PALIN: Boasts that she ran her campaign for governor on small donations and turned back large checks if her campaign perceived a conflict of interest.

THE FACTS: Of the roughly $1.3 million she raised for her primary and general election campaigns for governor, more than half came from people and political action committees giving at least $500, according to an AP analysis. The maximum that individual donors could give was $1,000; $2,000 for a PAC.

Of the rest, about $76,000 came from Republican Party committees.

... another idiot bit of “news” from the biased MSM. So typical that it’s boring to the point of “why even bother”. But Moonbattery did bother, and NRO, and Breitbart, and quite a number of other VRWC blogs, so I guess I missed the boat. I figured you guys all saw the stupid thing anyway and dismissed it as the crap it was.

No, my post here is that Moonbattery’s post generated a swarm of comments - more than 100; a regular troll fest, which quickly devolved into name calling, handle jacking, assertions of homosexuality, and the usual poop flinging monkey tantrum that results when anything about Sarah Palin is published. Amazingly, there were no comments about Nazis. And their 2nd post, appropriately titled More Sarah Palin Derangement Syndrome” is quickly travelling down the same path. Which just proves the point, yet again. Sarah Palin makes the left’s heads explode. She sets their hair on fire. Mwahahahaa, the women is a goddess for that.



Hmmm ... I wrote a post about a post written about a post written about a news article written about a book that doesn’t yet exist in the marketplace. Is that meta-meta-meta-meta-blogging? If anyone blogs about my post, we’ll be up at the quantum level!

Not that very many people ever read this far down, but this blog was the creation of Allan Kelly and his friend Vilmar. Vilmar moved on to his own blog some time ago, and Allan ran this place alone until his sudden and unexpected death partway through 2006. We all miss him. A lot. Even though he is gone this site will always still be more than a little bit his. We who are left to carry on the BMEWS tradition owe him a great debt of gratitude, and we hope to be able to pay that back by following his last advice to us all:

1. Keep a firm grasp of Right and Wrong
2. Stay involved with government on every level and don't let those bastards get away with a thing
3. Use every legal means to defend yourself in the event of real internal trouble, and, most importantly:
4. Keep talking to each other, whether here or elsewhere

It's been a long strange trip without you Skipper, but thanks for pointing us in the right direction and giving us a swift kick in the behind to get us going. Keep lookin' down on us, will ya? Thanks.
