My take is Sarah Palin was sensational tonight. She not only met the expectations, I think she wiped up the floor with Joe Biden, quite frankly. She is personable, she is young, she’s got a sense of humor…I think that she has done a sensational job and I think she as recaptured that magic she had out there at the convention.
Pat Buchanan on MSNBC’s Countdown with Keith Olbermann.
Pat, um, I believe you forgot something when you left home. YOUR BRAIN!
As Katie Couric said on CBS, all these comments come from "spin alley."
ReplyDeletePat Buchanan has been overly infatuated with that woman since she arrived on the scene. In recent months I thought he had started developing some rationality.
ReplyDeleteI guess I was wrong.
BTW, Sarah reminds me of a dear miniature Dachshund we know named Chrissy.
(Shameless plug warning)

AMEN! The man's brains are below his waist when it comes to Palin.
ReplyDeleteI wonder if Pat got that warm feeling.
ReplyDeleteBuchanan has always been a real fringe-y rightwinger anyway. Remember when he ran for President himself ? That didn't turn out so well, did it ? ;)
ReplyDeleteAnd yeah, guy acts like he's got a serious crush on her, eh ?
Sarah and Paula Deen could do a great show. "1 1/2 Fat ladies"? Sarah kills and butchers the plat-du-jour, then Paula cooks it. Six packs ("Joe" variety) are consumed.
ReplyDeleteSeems I was right when I surmised that no-one would go to your "McCain - A Miserable 20 Out Of 100 Rating" thread and catch my last post, Mimi. Pity.
And Pat Buchannan would be, by any chance.....a Republican?
ReplyDeleteBingo!
ReplyDeleteLapin, it's a shame. Some of what I think are my best posts get no notice at all - not one comment.
ReplyDeleteBut what do you think of the concept of the Sarah/Paula coupling?
ReplyDeleteThis is one of those "can't make it up" moments, because you know damned well that within twelve months, unless Paula accidentally batters and fries herself (occasionally, when I watch her, "fried" can come to mind), this will come to pass.
Lapin, I had to look to Wiki to see who Paula Deen is. I see she's a cook and that she had panic attacks which she overcome without therapy. I've had a few panic attacks, too, so, right off, I'm somewhat sympathetic. I'm sorry to say that I don't get the Deen/Palin connection, except that her introduction on her website sounds somewhat like a parody - you know, Goody Two-Shoes. Is that it?
ReplyDeleteAre you not familiar with Paula's hyper, high-fat, high-calorie, definitely-not-Martha Stewart, Savannah-based Southern cooking show? Thought you were. Sarah will be a perfect celebrity guest.
ReplyDeleteNot familiar at all, Lapin. I don't really keep up.
ReplyDeleteMimi, you owe it to yourself to watch a few Paula Deen episodes on Food Network. She's on right after the Food Goddess, Ina Garten (Barefoot Contessa).
ReplyDeleteOK, Mike and Lapin, you've convinced me. I'll watch Paula Deen.
ReplyDeleteThe "Food Goddess" reference to Ina Garten is a joke, yes?
ReplyDeletePat's brain has died of oxygen deprivation. It can't breathe underneath the comb-over.
ReplyDeleteHe is a swell fellow, though. And committed to the faith... in his own special (RC) way. God will recognize him on the last day, I'm sure of that.
God will recognize him on the last day, I'm sure of that.
ReplyDeleteAnon, if God watches the tee vee, she will surely recognize him. He's everywhere - or so it seems to me.
