Fox hires Palin

3... 2... 1... Liberal EXPLOSION!!!!!

Great idea. I look forward to hearing what she has to say. I don't look forward to bitternU's wingnut Wasilla nonsense.

It has the potential to take the ratings to an unbelievable level

Depending on the format and time slot it's almost guaranteed to be a hit. America is searching for a leader. Is she the one? I don't even know myself but I look forward to learning more so I can make that decision. I'm sure everyone on here has an open mind as well.

I look forward to the spinning of liberal heads as smoke steams out of their ears.

My guess is that both Palin and Dobbs will be offered shows this year by Fox

I love it. This is where she needs to be. She will be right at home with the rest of the liars.

30 minutes. I though it would take longer than that.

Palin will be a contributor, like Dobbs, not host her own show.

I am telling you now, if some higher power does not intervene, we will attack Iran in the very near future. We are gearing up as I type.

So, what higher power intervened?

President Palin, President Palin, President Palin. Get used to the sound of it!!!!!

Well duh! I guess you haven't noticed. We have a President with a brain. Trust me - old dumb as a rock bush tried. He just couldn't get anyone to go along with it.

The former Alaska governor, whose book, Going Rogue: An American Life, became a bestseller weeks before it was released and remains No. 2 on the New York Times bestseller list, has signed a multi-year deal to offer her political commentary and analysis across all Fox News platforms, including Fox Business Channel, FoxNews.com and Fox News Radio.

She will also participate in special event political programming for Fox Broadcasting.

"I am thrilled to be joining the great talent and management team at Fox News. It's wonderful to be part of a place that so values fair and balanced news," Palin said in a written release.

Palin will also host periodic episodes of Fox News Channel's "Real American Stories," a series exploring inspirational real-life tales of overcoming adversity throughout the American landscape that will debut in 2010.

"Governor Palin has captivated everyone on both sides of the political spectrum and we are excited to add her dynamic voice to the FOX News lineup," said Bill Shine, executive vice president of programming.

Prior to joining Sen. John McCain on the 2008 presidential ticket, Palin was the first woman to serve as governor of Alaska, taking the oath in 2006. As governor, she worked on improving resource development, education, health and transportation and infrastructure development.

Prior to holding the office of governor, Palin served two terms on the Wasilla City Council in Alaska as well as two terms as the mayor and manager of Wasilla, and worked as an oil and gas industry regulator.

Owned by News Corp, Fox News Channel is a 24-hour general news service covering breaking news as well as political, entertainment and business news, and has been the most-watched cable news channel in the country for eight years running. It features the top 13 programs in cable news and can be seen in more than 90 million homes.

We do? Where?

Oh, you mean Pelosi, no wait, that's not right. Biden---LOL, um, no, oh, you mean Bob Gates.

Yes.

Who's against this exactly? All those liberals who watch Fox News?

I hardly see the need for me to contribute Wasilla nonsense, since Ms. Palin rolls that commodity out daily and in mass quantities. Hope you enjoy listening to the nutterances of that scrambled egg! Some folks will always be satisfied with cheap thrills.

I do reserve the prerogative to occasionally offer incisive commentary concerning the cascade of nonsensical blather that will predictably issue from the rattling, lipsticked, soccer mom mouth of this newly-installed punditress.

For now, I am inspired to reproduce one of my favorite satirical poems, composed by an old and wise boyhood friend who shall remain anonymous, at his request. With apologies to Robert Frost:

"Building Bridge"

Satire Veritas: A Palin-drome


Something there is that doesn't need a bridge,
But some would plan a bridge to anywhere,
To please constituents. Earmarks, I mean,
No one has seen them made or heard them made,
But at fall budget-time we find them there.
I let the governor know beyond the hill;

She is VP, or says she wants to be,
And on a day we meet about her plan,
Discuss the bridge between us once again.

We talk affairs between us as we go.

“I can see Russia from my house!” she said.

Or so I thought, but she denied the thought.

For it was not a bridge to Russia that she sought.

The earmarked money came so quick and fast

She wore her fingers rough from handling it.

But though a portion was in the state’s banks,

She still claimed “I told Congress thanks but no thanks.”

Our words are just another out-door game,
One on a side. They come to little more:
There at that spot we do not need the bridge:
She only says, “Good bridges make good neighbors”.
Spring is the mischief in me, and I wonder
If I could put a notion in her head:
”Why do they make good neighbors? Isn't it
Where there are neighbors?
But here there are no neighbors.
Before I built a bridge I'd ask to know
What I was bridging to or bridging from,
And to whom I was like to give offence.
Something there is that doesn't love raw pork,
That wants it out.” I could say to her,
But I'd rather she said it for herself. I see her there
with bags of cash grasped firmly by the top
In each hand, like an old-stone savage armed.

But even with the money in the bank
She moves in darkness as it seems to me~
Not of woods only and the shade of trees.

She will not go behind her former saying,
And she likes hearing the sound of it so well
She says it still again, "Thanks but no thanks."

So obsessed with her, you keep poetry of her.

That is sad. I can assure you I have no poetry for any lib except the recurrent line of 'consume feces and expire'.

Palin recently honored for the "Lie of the Year," Palin is a master practitioner of pushing false claims and bogus information.

"Pot!!! Is that you?!?" asked Kettle.

I am not a Palin fan, and have made that known in previous threads. However, I am not a fan of her as a government leader. To criticize, or make fun of, her attempts at a career as a news commentator/correspondent, or whatever, is silly and is only going to affirm the long-held conservative mantra that you liberals are afraid of her. Let her enjoy success in the private sector - watch her or don't watch her, doesn't matter. Would you rather have her in office?

Tell me this Bitternut,
Do you vacuum your lawn, yell at children on bicycles, kick dogs and cats and shoot hem when nobody is looking, place 'No Trespassing' signs in your yard the appropriate and regulation distance from the road, attend city council meetings and complain about ugly buildings and garbage pickup, use a ruler when putting a stamp on a letter, and make sure to slam all doors in little old ladies faces then dash off to church as an elder and pretend you are a good and caring person?

I repeat: Consume feces and expire.

None of the above, nor do I encourage anyone to "Consume feces and expire," since only a base and boorish lout would do that even once, let alone repeatedly.

Fox is the one place Palin will fit in very
well. After all, Fox News and Palin know their propaganda and how to spread it to the very dumb who believe it. LOL " Factually Challenged"

That's why they hired her as a consultant commentator and didn't give her own show. They want her as a sensational value and will groom her and tell her what to say. Or make sure she has her facts right before she starts babbling.

She is such an opportunist and sensationalist, like a "gold digger," after the money and spotlight.
If this fails we will probably see her pose for Playboy.

I know that I sure feel safe with her around as at least she will keep us safe from evil witches and witchcraft.LOL

Remember the last time everyone wanted change? Now we are stuck with OBAMA. Some change is not always good!!

I have every confidence that she will expel the witches. After all, as she tells us, it was God who got her the nod for Republican Vice Presidential candidate. When God is on your side, you need not know that North Korea and South Korea are actually separate nations and why they are so. There are lots of other qualifications you need not acquire, provided you have been divinely anointed for public office. Steve Schmidt, a major operative in the McCain/Palin campaign, has delivered the goods on the Wacko of Wasilla:

To start with,what was Mccain thinking and second she talks crazy enough to put on Fox News,she will fit right in.

I look forward to your incisive commentary. It should start tonight, she will be on O'Reilly. I'm sure you won't miss it.

Palin was referring to her run for the VP as God's plan for her -- that he had opened a door for her to go in another direction. This is a common belief among many Christians, although evangelicals will speak of it more openly than most.

Those unfamilar with the belief display their ignorance and bigotry when they show distain.

Sorry, but for too long, we of the conservative mind have observed the left and its tribal rituals.

For those you distain, but perceived no threat, the reaction is oblivion. You simply don't recognize the existence of the creature.

Ah! But, for those you perceive as a threat, its all battle stations. The politics of personal destruction is used in all its fearsome glory. You attack by every means possible. The subject will be called racist, a simpleton, a neandertaler, and worse; no matter that person's level of education or level of attainment.

When a leftie speaks of Palin, we conservatives smell the musky odor of flop sweat exuding from your glands. Its the smell of fear and we're on the alert for it. Sorry, from now on, we're on to your games.

What is this "distain" you refer to here and in your post immediately following this one? Is it anything like "disdain"?

As to Palin's crediting God with her choice to go "in another direction," well, that verges on blasphemy. An all-wise Creator could scarcely have selected such obviously incompetent material for His purposes.

Because something is a "common belief" does not mean that it is a correct belief, especially when the believer is a self-deluded, self-promoting dingbat!

It's hard to believe the supposedly educated, Christian people who hang on to every word of Limbo and the Fox people.

I have been looking for a pattern. Maybe this is one. They seem to be people who are wooses but very opinionated. They really love to hear/see a bully tear into someone, the truth don't matter to conservatives.

beter, your comment verges on blasphemy. For a man who claims to have been a deacon and adult Sunday School teacher, you do not appear to know the Bible, and "who" God uses - ANYONE who will let him.

Shame on you. You have seriously disgraced yourself with this response.

I don't buy it, Joy. I have seen and heard far too many falsely claiming to be God's chosen to take claims like Ms. Palin's at face value. The deplorable George W. Bush made a similar claim. Any given night you can go to the numerous religious channels on cable or satellite and find all kinds of money-grubbing demagogic phonies claiming to be the Lord's anointed.

As to your characterization of God's choices ("who" God uses - ANYONE who will let him"), I would refer you to Daniel 4:17:

"Thereby the living will know that the Most High is sovereign in the kingdom of men: He gives the kingdom to whom he wills, and may appoint over it the lowliest of mankind."

That seems to say that God chooses and appoints who he will allow to ascend to the seats of earthly power. If God chose George Bush, then the same God chose Barack Obama, wouldn't you say? That being said, it ill behooves true Christians to rail against the Lord's chosen--verges on blasphemy, even.

Now, Joy, the above is posted not because I subscribe to it 100%. The matter of how and when God chooses to insinuate Himself into human affairs is more complex than is reflected in either your explication of the matter of mine. That is why I am loathe to venture into personal, simplistic explanations of the outworking of Divine will. If you are comfortable with such exercises, then by all means, continue to comfort yourself and your opinions thereby.

So the betternU even refers to the Almighty? Who would have guessed that. I guess the all wise creator isn't betternU.

Betern nuttin,

Nanny or nanny goat, yes, my spelling is off by one letter, so what!

No blasphemy, as you have no idea where the destination of the opening door might lead. As to inferior material, when I observe Joe Biden, I see much worse. Again, the odor of flop sweat exudes from the pores of the left.

As to a common belief, I don't know your beliefs. However, why is the belief that a Higher Power offers a choice to his creations so wrong? As to "self-deluded, self-promoting dingbat," thank you for illustrating the irrationality of the left.

Are you really suggesting that the Almighty offered to Sarah Palin the choice of running for Vice President? Funny--I thought it was John McCain who extended that offer. And I have to suppose that her acceptance of that offer was based in part on her perception that the Vice President "is in charge of the Senate." Here is a link, complete with video, documenting this particular outburst of Palin ignorance:

"As to the "self-deluded, self-promoting dingbat" part, I have great confidence that the perspective of history will fully validate that assessment.
