These people are simply *insane*.


You know, I had a fairly elaborate rant planned out over this bizarre Leno/Palin applause faux-scandal Allahpundit found (no direct link: frankly, the original ‘revelation’ was porn – and boring, over-specialized porn at that) and was likewise gobsmacked over – but I realized that my last paragraph was all that you needed for a response.  So here it is:

So, how far into Crazyland has the netroots gone when it comes to Sarah Palin?  Let me put it this way: I now wait in breathless anticipation for the day that someone in the Online Left announces that they’re about to be given incontrovertible evidence that she’s secretly a Jew.

The 2008 election is over, people.  When can we expect to start seeing that the Other Side has, you know, moved on?

‘Tain’t no way Mrs. Palin is one of ‘my people’.

If I can ID one of us Eeeeevil Jooooooooooos from 1,000 yards using my tactical night scope during a hurricane for a ‘friendly’ tag, I sure can spot one on a big ol’ 1080p HDTV in my living room.

May I suggest that she submit to a mitochondrial DNA test immediately, so we can better understand “where she is coming from”

We can add “geners” to troofers and birfers.

………. Leave it to Achance…….. He’s in Alaska…… He knows everything.

Oooh, I wouldn’t like that, that’d take all the mystery out of life.

Besides, if she were a Jooooooooooo, she’d have “Property Of Teh Eeeeevil Jooooooooooos” stamped on her.

They don’t stamp former state governors “Property Of Teh Eeeeevil Jooooooooooos” !…… You can’t stamp Elliot Spitzer “Property Of Teh Eeeeevil Jooooooooooos” !!!

They stamped him when he was small… at the same time when they ‘cut off the tip’.

What happens when they molt ?

Governors don’t molt !

No, but presidents do…… There, I’ve run rings around you logically !

Ooooooooh….. Interco………..

the more they ridicule her, the more I admire her- nt.

Exactly

m_quick Friday, March 5th at 9:22PM EST (link)

And I think most people are this way. The left’s irrational hatred has always been pretty transparent, but the more petty things like this come up, the more clear it becomes that the left is completely nuts.

I hope they keep trying to drag her through the mud. She can obviously handle it, and it’s exposing the left for the hateful cowards they really are.

What's fascinating, though...

NotSoBlueStater (Diary) Friday, March 5th at 10:40PM EST (link)

…is that it’s a double-edged sword. She is a perfectly reasonable woman, but a lightweight in the end. Because of the left’s obsession with her, she ends up being far more … visible … than her true significance in the world justifies.

What concerns me is that she might becomes the face the world uses to make caricatures of the conservative movement. While it’s an undeniably pleasant face, it’s a shame she isn’t capable of a little more true gravitas. And she isn’t. If she were, it would have shown itself by now.

It’s not really a criticism of Palin — she’s really good at being who she is, and who she is is actually quite admirable.

I wouldn't say she isn't capable of a little more gravitas

m_quick Friday, March 5th at 11:43PM EST (link)

I think that is yet to be determined. As she keeps getting daily briefs on policy issues, learns more about government outside Alaska and maybe gets the chance to talk to Stossel while at Fox, she could obtain the much needed gravitas.

I think she just knew enough to run Alaska well, and from all reports I’ve read she did a good job at that. But now she has to focus on all of America if she wants to be a national figure.

She can’t just drop out and learn these things either, the press won’t let her. She has to learn while she’s under the microscope.

…I think she just knew enough to run Alaska well, and from all reports I’ve read she did a good job at that. ”

And, just what in Hell does THAT mean?

That, because Alaska is less populous than other states, running it is no biggie?

In Nov 2008, we elected a “community organizer”, who gave no evidence of even running a meeting of organizers (much less anything else), to the top job in the land.

Comparing her abilities to his is like comparing Fuji apples to horse apples.

…and point taken.

I come close to really losing it when I see Palin’s so-called “inexperience” being raised by people who very likely voted for the moron we currently have in the White House. I want to scream things that would get me banned at this site.

I apologize for suspecting you of being one such. From your response, I gather you are definitely NOT.

I confess that that is a hot button of mine that is very easy to press. :-)

Well, I probably should defer to you Alaska experts,

Achance (Diary) Saturday, March 6th at 1:17PM EST (link)

but her vaunted ethics reform is being substantially amended, AGIA remains vaporware and the major producers/leaseholders show no interest in shipping their gas, and the ACES revenue scheme probably won’t survive this session intact and certainly won’t survive next session.

She knew how to run Alaska just well enough to issue a lot of press releases, get herself well known, and then run for the money. But you guys probably know her better than I do.

I wasn't bashing Palin

m_quick Saturday, March 6th at 7:51PM EST (link)

I think she even said so herself that she needs to learn more about national issues, she just focused on Alaska while she was governor (which is good). Alaska has a lot of importance to America, regardless of population density. I don’t think governing Alaska was small potatoes at all.

I wasn’t even comparing her to Obama, which she no doubt blows out of the water when it comes to successful executive experience. Comparing her to Obama is kind of dumb in my opinion anyway, he is the most inexperienced person in any room he walks into. Most people would look good compared to him.

But coddling her and pretending like she has no room to grow is not going to help her, guys. It’s going to hurt her more than anything. She doesn’t need yes men and lap dogs right now telling her how great she is. She needs to treat this time like basic training and get in gear if she wants the presidency in 2012 (which I don’t know if she does). I would rather have her as president instead of Obama, I think she would surround herself with the right people and make up for anything she doesn’t fully grasp (Reagan was the same).

The only things she'll tolerate around her are

Achance (Diary) Sunday, March 7th at 2:43AM EST (link)

“…yes men and lap dogs,” and if you’re not telling her how great she is, you won’t be around her long. I’d rather have ‘becker’s dead white cat than Comrade Obama as President, so that ain’t no claim to fame.

Mary Beth (Diary) Friday, March 5th at 8:37PM EST (link)

We see the hard left continuing their “it’s Bush’s fault” screed in an attempt to legitimize Obama as an alternative but also to do the converse…de-legitimize Bush or any Republican policies.

Likewise…with Palin… they need to smear her in order to make Obama look better in comparison and also to de-legitimize her in the eyes of the people or those foolish enough to allow the MSM to dictate who is non-offensive enough for us to choose as a potential presidential candidate perhaps…and more immediately to neutralize or dampen the threat she poses to them as a kingmaker in 2010.

Also these people are indeed insane.

The Psychotic Left is a Joke!

mikenad (Diary) Friday, March 5th at 8:51PM EST (link)

Palin is my favorite person in politics today. The psychotic left has been worse to her than anyone in history. My dream is that Palin becomes President of the United States and the Pyschotic Left and elitists Republican Palin haters commit suicide the Jim Jones Marxists way by drinking cyanide laced kool-aide. I hope Palin succeeds and surprises America. I hope see ignores the psychos like that fool on the Daily Kos. NBC would never go out of their way to help Palin, That is how you know the guy is full of crap and the consensus is Palin was very funny on Leno! The left is losing it. I hope she makes a run for President and stops Romney and the Liberal Republican establishment.

Wow, you hit the nail on the head!

NotSoBlueStater (Diary) Friday, March 5th at 10:44PM EST (link)

NBC would never go out of their way to help Palin,

Hadn’t really thought about that, but it’s sort of obvious. But then the far left believes that the “corporate media” secretly supports Republicans….

…even in a post about Palin. This is wearing thin. And I’m not a Romney supporter, but right now I’m could care less about who’s running for President in 2012 – I’m concerned about ObamaCare and the 2010 elections.

antisocial (Diary) Friday, March 5th at 9:22PM EST (link)

Never.

Left has been slapped around so much by their Hope and Change Precedent. What can they talk about except Palin. They are just trying to hide their shame. They need something to discuss.

-GITMO is open well beyond January 22nd 2010.
-KSM is headed back to military trials.
-Rendition is still on.
-Their Hope and Peace candidate escalated the war in Afghanistan.
-The Magnificent One could not even get Olympics.
-Environment is still suffering due to carbon emissions. Those poor Polar bears.
-The Precedent got kicked around in Copenhaaagun. No Progress at all. Oceans are still rising. Planet has still not begun to heal.
-They don’t have healthcare for all yet. Even if they get that it would be worth nothing. No choice for Women. No affordable Public Option.
-Labor is floundering. Actually licking their wounds. Their membership is going down.
-BIG OIL is still flourishing.
-BIG Banks are still not nationalized.

Tell me again why did they support this guy instead of Hillary? For this day?

Instead of consoling them, you are making fun? Looks like you are a member of VRWC. Or an Evil Capitalist.

Simply insane, or insane sexual deviants?

RedBeard Saturday, March 6th at 6:20AM EST (link)

Reading that last long entry at Hot Air, particularly the stuff near the end, I’m seeing a guy who secretly (or not so secretly now) peeps into Sarah Palin’s bedroom window, hoping to get a glimpse of the woman he lusts after. The sexual sour grapes scenario seems plausible, given his obvious obsession with, and fantasies about, her sexuality.

Get the net.

The far left is simply insane!

mikenad (Diary) Saturday, March 6th at 11:05AM EST (link)

The far left is simply insane! They are threatened by Palin and anyone the perceive as strong, religious, and good-looking and Sarah Palin is all three. The media has certainly help feed these people’s insanity. The Alinsky Media has targeted Palin and I would absolutely love to see her win and Dynamic Conservatives win. The Alinsky Media is the reason Republicans get stuck with bland old white men as candidates, while Young and/or Dynamic candidates are attacked to no end. The far-left wants Republicans to be devoid of charisma. Gerald Ford, Bob Dole, and John McCain were not young or dynamic. Palin,George W. Bush,and Reagan are all dynamic, Bush and Palin are relatively young in politics. Mitt Romney is bland and not dynamic at all, he is just like Bob Dole and John McCain.

If you based your impression

animatorgirl Monday, March 8th at 2:24PM EST (link)

of the 2008 election’s outcome on behavior alone, you would have to conclude that the Democrats lost. Why else would they continue to attack Sarah Palin with such distinctive bitterness and vehemence?

I’d say it’s baffling, but I eventually need to get over my surprise when it comes to the outrageous behavior of liberals.
