it's no secret that bill o'reilly hates san francisco. after 9/11 he made a comment that the military shouldn't protect san francisco from a terrorist attack.
he's on the attack yet again, this time with a "documentary" about what the obama administration will do to the country. and he bases his fears on san francisco.
i have to say, as frustrated as i found myself that o'reilly went looking to paint a horrible picture of san francisco, i found myself laughing out loud (and i know some of those hippies in golden gate park, for the record). for one, making medical marijuana use look oh-so-fucking-radical is ridiculous. and secondly, on the whole, san francisco is a VERY safe city. i have no qualms walking or biking around 95% of the city alone at night. it is not a city plagued by violence (for the most part) like detroit, atlanta, or even (parts of) oakland. i have to say, he went out of his way to try to make san francisco look like a crime plagued, liberal black hole. but in reality he didn't really do his job so well.

watch this. you will be in tears.
sarah palin was such a great source for some major laughs during the past few months! but now that she's back in alaska (though that ted stevens senate seat is questionable), she's still talking to that gotchya media. but this time, her handlers are nowhere to be found. so the barracuda is letting loose!

watch this:
some residents of obama, japan made up this little diddy to celebrate obama's win last night. it's pretty damn humorous.

while driving home tonight, i heard about this on the mike malloy show. sarah palin did an interview with an NBC affiliate in colorado. during the interview, she answered a question submitted by a third grader. true, she sounded like she was in her element, answering a question from a child, but she gave him incorrect information about the job of vice president! follow this link to see the video.
mike malloy suggested that she look up "vice president" on wikipedia...

with regards to last night's debate i am still in utter disbelief about how little mccain understands about women's health! did y'all hear (really hear?) what he said about so called "partial birth abortions" (when really, the proper term is either "third trimester abortions" or "late term abortions") during last night's debate? and i loved obama's response, which did not alienate any of his pro-choice voters.
here's a statement from nancy keenan, the president of naral: ( under the cut for your reading pleasure. )
i think that my favorite quote about john mccain comes from cecile richards:
"women voting for john mccain is like chickens voting for col. sanders."
how accurate is that??? ( read the rest of that here )
finally, how happy was i when the candidates were asked two of the questions i wanted most wanted answers for:
"why would the country be better off if your running mate became president rather than his running mate?" (mccain's assessment of palin was 100% wrong. but really, what could he say?)
and
"are each of you tonight willing to sit at this table and say to each other's face what your campaigns and the people in your campaigns have said about each other?" (mccain is PROUD of those who show up at his rallies chanting "terrorist" and "kill him"? oh my god.)
even fox news viewers agree: obama won last night's debate. three for three! now 4 nov just needs to come so we can elect president elect obama!

i am so terrified.
as entertaining as palin has been, she is terrifying. this is beyond horrible.
listen to how fast palin allowed (eh, invited) the religious right to infiltrate wasilla. just over three weeks until the election. we need to do whatever it takes to elect obama/biden.
- at the heart the blue flame burns:
scared
"can i call you joe?"
"of course"
"ok. because i practiced a coupla zingers where i call you joe."
"ok, great."
great. she has a lesbian friend. great. she chose not to be a lesbian.
WHATTHEFUCKISWRONGWITHTHISWOMAN?!?!??!?
and i am so glad to know that those who have had abortions won't be thrown in jail... :/
and for the record, she is NOT a feminist...

i got this from
wtf_sarahpalin, the best lj community ever:
this is all kinds of awesome. really. FTW!
this is all kinds of awesome. really. FTW!
i am baaaaaaaaaack! new computer and working internet.
it's going to take me a bit to get caught up on everything, but this needs to be posted:
for real? are we still on this wavelength? i am surprised she knew the name "putin." and am i the only one who wants cameras allowed in her (ahem) "closed to the media" meetings with foreign leaders (and bono)?
by the way, sarah palin, though i can not see russia from my house, i have been there. take that.

(this sarah palin fact of the day is coming at y'all a bit early as i won't be around to post one tomorrow)
sarah palin doesn't like cats. but more importantly, three out of four of her closest friends won't officially endorse her.
at least that is what a reporter for good morning america found out when she went to meet some of palin's friends in wasilla, alaska.
awesome.

this is excellent!
on a similar note, i am looking for a hilarious sarah palin icon to use for these posts (and of course my sarah palin fact of the day posts). anyone have one or (and i will owe you) does anyone with photoshop want to make me one? i have an idea of exactly what i want. if you're willing to use your photoshop skills to poke fun at gov. palin, email me at indigokare at gmail dot com. (what i want is animated, by the way). of course you would get full credit.
