  1. Im surprised the big issue was Obamas response. I would think that running for vp, Palin would be careful with sexist self deprecating jokes like this one. I am a hockey mom and I think there are many differences between me and a violent dog. For one Palin, I'm human and I dont always wear lipstick.

  2. I also like the following new word:

    Palindrone (n) – remotely operated Veep

  3. There ought to be a word for "there ought to be a word."

    In fact there is; sniglets!

    These examples are from Rich Hall's "Sniglets" books but my two favortes there are;

    "gashole" – someone who cuts through a corner gas station to make a right turn

    and

    "musquirt" – that watery yellow liquid that first comes out of the mustard dispenser.

    ———————————————————————————–

    PROPOSAL FOR A NEW DEMOGRAPHIC : THE METH BELT (formerly THE POVERTY BELT)

    it is the season for weird letters like this one
    so i apologize sort of, and get right to it:

    the good Tina Fey has guided us to an important point

    if Wasilla is indeed the meth capital of Alaska
    then i can't help but remember that Arizona is famous for meth too

    and do recognize that the recent huge increase in domestic use
    of the drug most closely identified with American poverty (meth)
    is, as they say in economic circles, a bad indicator

    so i like this idea of The Meth Belt, as it abstractly evokes white(-ish)
    working-poor non-college-educated etc mountain/desert/rural demographics
    and begs the question: have we wandered onto badlands farmed by Hillary's lost tribes?

    this is only exciting because the tv heads say they are 'in play'

    it is a kind way to say 'no one knows anything about them' (they weren't really Hillary's either)
    if they vote in the election, we'll know where they're at
    the rest is conjecture

    the actual meth-heads won't vote, and remain opaque
    too tweaked to have managed to register (wait my real real name?)
    or no longer legal voters due to convictions in criminal court

    that said: i think that the Meth Belt is a pretty useful and honest rebranding
    of the Poverty Belt, long forgotten, ever expanding

    which brings us to this link (includes very funny Sarah Palin imitation by Tina Fey)
    http://blog.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=blog.view&friendID=109554353&blogID=433156142

    + if you see the point
    repost it online somewhere or link to it
    email it to your influential friends
    or otherwise help raise awareness

    if not, no worries, enjoy Tina Fey
    maybe for a long time
    though while we would love to see her do this character forever
    that in itself is not good enough reason to advance Sarah Palin to high office

    the economy is collapsing, now, as we speak
    Mr. McCain knows little of economics, and has said so
    yes markets 'heal' themselves
    but it is bloody, as wounds tend to be
    not mental, not imaginary

    fair warning:
    you may soon be unable to afford good drugs anymore
    prescription or not

    that's the thing about meth: it's home-made
    you can't blame the dealer

    these are unhappy people

    the fact that the use of this drug of extreme poverty
    exploded during Sarah Palin's exalted executive leadership
    is symptomatic and suggestive of a corresponding
    increase in poverty in Alaska at the time;
    somebody should check

    meanwhile on the educational front
    our baby-with-the-bathwater drug war
    has it so you can't go into a toy store anymore
    and buy your kid a chemistry set
    banned thanks to meth-heads
    so great now the only kids who understand chemistry are drug addicts

    funny, to be sure
    but fairly bad for america

    your opportunity for gentle political persuasion is waning
    buy now

    this is not the america you want

    trapped in the casino
    you are already out of money
    and the drugs are bad
