You know, I really used to delight in getting in days-long, heated discussions on The Internet, but as I got a little older, I realized why it and, for that matter, the discussion of politics in real life and in general, really just amounts to two people furiously masturbating each other. No one ever sees the other person’s point of view, no one comes away having given any thought to what the other has said, and, particularly in the case of politics, it amounts to two people comparing how many talking points they have memorized from whichever particular radio station they happen to enjoy the most.

At this point, the lube is getting everywhere, and I feel that I have indulged you long enough. This discussion is doing nothing to further serve our readers or our sponsors, and as such, I am shutting it down. Thanks.

I, for one, would like to get back to the business of silliness and so once again, and for the third time, I am imploring you to take this talk elsewhere. I recommend the Huff Po. I hear Alec Baldwin wrote something rather humorous and insightful there recently.

On a separate note, I have to admit that you and your kind are winning the debate hands down, with actions if not necessarily with words. The white western world (for whom you reserve a very special hatred) is in headlong numerical decline and at current rates will probably cease to exist within a century or so. Of course, the planet will still be populated (or overpopulated, in your terms), but at least the hated white man will be gone, and that´s all you guys really care about, isn´t it.

To take “Sarah the Soccer Mom” and put her within a melanoma of being the next vice or president is insane! SM

If McCain goes down, Palin is the president. Imagine then if you will, a possible scenerio where the Wasilla beauty queen has to sit down with Vladimir Putin and demand the withdrawal of the Russian military from Poland. Will she look into his eyes and see the soul of a man? Putin is probably doing handsprings over the possibility of all this. To take “Sarah the Soccer Mom” and put her within a melanoma of being the next vice or president is insane! SM

So, you see, Jillian is quite moderate in her words. I personally make fun of anyone who has more than 2 kids, I think they should be ashamed to go out in public with them. For a politician to hold herself up as a role model simply for having all these children is absurd. Any critter can have litters, humans are supposed to be smarter and more in control of their destiny and more aware of the effects of uncontrolled breeding on the planet and its occupants. Listening to Palin, she crowed about her multiple births as if it were an accomplishment. In fact, it takes no brains and no guts to have children, it takes both to be responsible and control your breeding.

Alaska’s Republican State Senate President: Palin Not Prepared, Thought Pick Was A Joke. “State Senate President Lyda Green said she thought it was a joke when someone called her at 6 a.m. to give her the news. ‘She’s not prepared to be governor. How can she be prepared to be vice president or president?’ said Green, a Republican from Palin’s hometown of Wasilla. ‘Look at what she’s done to this state. What would she do to the nation?’” [Anchorage Daily News, 8/29/08]

Alaska’s Republican House Speaker Has Nothing Positive To Say About Palin’s Qualifications. “State House Speaker John Harris, a Republican from Valdez, was astonished at the news. He didn’t want to get into the issue of her qualifications. ‘She’s old enough,’ Harris said. ‘She’s a U.S. citizen.’” [Anchorage Daily News, 8/29/08]

This was said right after the choice was made. Of course, the republican mafia has descended upon AK and has effectively intimidated anyone from saying anything further, including the 7 ppl who were set to testify willingly in troopergate but now say they must be legally compelled to do so.

As we can see here and elsewhere… criticize Palin at your own risk.

By the way, Nancy, I see on your blog that you´re delighted that someone is pregnant. I´m happy for you but wonder how you feel about Jillian´s use of the term ´pooping´with regard to the impending birth?
