Conservative of the Year: Sarah Palin

[Stingo]

Human Events, that wingnuttiest of magazines, has named Sarah Palin “Conservative of the Year.” In a year where the Republicans have brought themselves failed candidates and losses in the House and Senate, where they have brought us economic calamity on a global scale, this award seems oddly appropriate.

1. Bwa ha ha ha. She is such a hypocritical phony. Perfect choice

She exemplifies republicon 'family values' BS

[Stingo]

2. Has Carport had the baby yet?

And what did they call him? Sprocket?

[Aviation Pro]

7. DUzy....

...and I don't think MudSlide has had Slurry yet.

[Somawas]

9. The baby will be named Eight Ball.

and don't you forget it.

13. I was hoping for Tweeker or Spongebob.

n.t.

[meow2u3]

19. ...or Squidward

:rofl:

[Stingo]

20. squidward?

That is a good name for the boy, but won't make him a proud boy. I think Lugnut is better. Or maybe Ducttape.

8. I think this Wasilla sporting event is going to get interesting.

I'm wondering if she's even pregnant.

3. *snicker*

that's fantastic, rethugs... keep that idiot at the top of your list. thanks!

[Pab Sungenis]

4. I agree.

She had the most impact on the news of the year than any other Conservative.

I assume they use the same criteria as "Time" does for Person of the Year, which means that the effect is for good or for ill.

[Stingo]

10. That is not their criteria

Read the article. They are naming her because she's the best conservative. Of course, they had Ann Coulter write it up, so it's a bit unhinged.

5. Dysfunctional Family of the Year would be more fitting.

6. Wow...

I love it when idiots are in denial.

[Hubert Flottz]

11. Who was it last year, Larry Craig or Dave Vitter?

I'll bet they hurt poor old Dick Cheney's feelings when they passed him up for his number one wanna-bee.

[YOY]

12. If she is the future of Republicanism and Conservatism...

Then we have everything or nothing to worry about.

Everything if her behavior and level of incompetence and ignorance is set as a acceptable "norm".

Nothing if she is continually pointed out for being the complete poster child of what went wrong with their party.

[Stingo]

14. On the latter you assume sanity

on the parts of Republicans. That may be a bit of a stretch, given this award and all.

[YOY]

16. The only thing we can assume about them is their innate contrarianism.

The logic: If something pisses the left off then it's got to be good for them.

They couldn't be further from the truth. I really hope they can rope their party in from the far right. I wish them all the effort in the world. Frankly because this makes us have to stop catering ad nauseum to the middle and center-right and shafting even the center-left hard.

[baldguy]

15. This is what's wrong with conservatism is America.

[Stingo]

17. The only thing wrong?

The list of problems with conservatism is longer than the list of Dick Cheney's undisclosed locations.

[baldguy]

18. Yes

Conservatives consistently choose people to represent them & forward their cause who are not conservatives. Palin is a theocratic fascist.

[Stingo]

21. Many conservatives

think theocratic fascism is just fine.

[baldguy]

22. Many conservatives are idiots.

I think we can agree on that

[Alcibiades]

23. The new face of the GOP

Nothing but uneducated crackers. That's the future of their party.
