TLC and why Palin will never be president -- part 2
Last week I wrote a piece pegged to tonight's TLC pairing of Kate Gosselin and Sarah Palin on Palin's "Alaska" reality TV series.
The core of my commentary was that Palin will never be president because she has sold herself too cheap to low-rent reality-TV venues like TLC, and now she is being perceived as another one of the channel's freak moms like Kate Gosselin or the women on the series "I Didn't Know I was Pregant." As the title so coyly suggests, that shows features women who gave birth and claim they didn't know ther were pregant. You can also now lump Palin in with the twisted stage moms of "Toddlers & Tiaras," a show that sexualizes little girls, and the women of "Sister Wives," TLC's celebration of polygamy.
/snip
Palin has been reduced to the level of Gosselin by allowing herself to become part of the debased TLC stable of "stars."
Was it really worth a million dollars for Palin to allow herself to be associated with the rest of the folks on this freak show reality-TV channel? Either way, this is the kind of thing that will keep her from ever being president.
Yes,Sarah, Ronald Reagan did have a TV career, too. But it was never with bottom-feeding programs like this.

With friends like them, Palin needs no enemies.
NS hates Palin with a passion. NS hates Hannity, Beck. Hucklebee, Fox News, Boehner, Coulter, Rush, both Bush’s but loves Jon Stewart. Now you tell me if that is a typical FR poster or a typical DU poster.
NS is not a conservative. NS is here on FR for one reason and NS stated that reason.. so he/she can fight on CW threads and not be deleted like he/ he was at other forums. NS is also quite the hero of the libs over at Politijab. NS used to post on DU until outed here then immediately stopped posting there, at least under that name. Bottom line, NS is a troll. See how NS got called out here and then left. That’s the MO of NS. When the radar spots him, get out of there and fly below it for a while and hope JR and the mods don’t notice it.
NS won’t deny any of this because NS knows that his words are right here on FR past posts to prove it.
Personally I think that Governor Palin has great friends, better people than enemies like you for instance. I don't think that you should be calling them "Palinistas" for instance, as though they are Latin American communists, and as conservatives, lack "reason and truth".
To: pissant
Advise you to back off Palin and back off about the womens’ right to vote. Either back off or I give the green light to the mods to zot your account on the next offense. I’m the last defender you have on FR and you’re beginning to piss me off too.

BTTT!
What? No actual quotes? You’re slipping, mo-joe.
Be sure to the rats and other elites our response...Now Scram! We are not the cowards from "NoLabels.org" We are FReepers! Fear us...
Please let me know if you want ON or OFF my Viking Kitty/ZOT ping list!. . . don't be shy.
Buh Bang!
Two questions:
What's your definition of "yeoman's work"?
Who cares what Huckabee & Romney did in the last election?
To assist in your sorting through definitions, I kinda like the description of the phrase on this page:
A Plague on Words: “Yeoman’s Work”
And this sentence, from that page, seems to fit both Huckabee & Romney, for what its worth.
Describing something as “yeoman’s work,” then, carries the suggestion the work could have been done by anyone, and that the work is valuable only in a quantitative and not a qualitative sense.
ZOT
Ha ha, burns, doesn't it.
Earl got Jammed, I see. LOL.
The last two shows will increase Gov. Palin’s support. Much more real life than the obozo reality show. Great shooting and great parenting shown!
What *is* NS?
Woo-Hoo! OUCH!
The PDSer was right without knowing it....LOL.
FWIW your anti-Palin diatribes are being picked up and posted throughout the blogosphere as examples of how people on this forum are in agreement with the MSM portrayal of Sarah Palin.
There are a lot of forums where your PDS attitude would be welcome with open arms. It appears that every day that goes by that attitude is wearing thin with the powers that be. It might be wise to promote other potential candidates and extoll their virtues rather than spending so much time trying to tear down Palin.
Just my two cents.
