I don’t think Palin’s bus is breaking driving laws, but the reporters that’s doing the chasing. They’re trying to push each other aside due to their own selfish greed to be first there with the best location to take shots

funny. Complaining about “a nobody” going about on a family holiday, not telling them where she is going. STOP FOLLOWING!

On Wednesday, after a police escort led the bus through a closed section of the Lincoln Tunnel, the bus ran at least two red lights racing up Sixth Avenue and through Columbus Circle in Midtown Manhattan.

I think that should be 8th Avenue, which goes through Columbus Circle. Also, the Port Authority Terminal is on 8th Avenue. I used to take a bus from there on Sunday nights up to I95 towards New England back in the sixties. The lights along 8th Avenue were timed, and if the driver got a little behind, well, he had to catch up, didn't he?

That has to be one of the funniest movies I have ever seen. Three hours of constant laughter.

so is she breaking the law, or does she have a police escort that allows her the rightaway in traffic?

The fire Ladder scene is about my favorite. But the entire movie is hysterical. *sigh*

Another funny one is ‘With Six You Get Eggroll’ with Doris Day and Brian Keith. There is a scene that is very much in the same tone as It’s a MMM and that’s when Doris Day was driving the camper throwing Keith (playing her husband) around in the back....camera shows him bouncing all over the inside and then he bounces OUT on to the street.

Makes me giggle even though haven’t seen either movie in years.

ooops...I think this is called hijacking a thread :O (sorry)

Breakin’ the law! Breakin’ the law! Is she breaking the law if the bus goes 56 in a 55 zone? I guess so!

I dig the lines where she describes the “Palin entourage” and flotilla - or however the twit describes it - is two SUVs. I mean - shoot - that is fewer than the cars in my driveway.

They learn that in journalism school, the same place where they tell newbies to describe a box of 250 rounds of ammo as a "stockpile".

My favorite scene is Jonathan Winters tearing apart the brand new, just opened, service station of Arnold Stang and Marvin Kaplan. A close second was Sid Cesar and Edie Adams getting locked in the hardware store and having to blow their way out.

They speed. They run red lights and stop signs. They make last-second lane changes to get off the highway, sometimes without signaling.

LOL! Get up here to Maine, Sarah, that's how we all drive here!

In Southern New Hampshire, as in Massachusetts, not using your turn signal is considered fair play. You never want to give up the element of surprise.

Oh, really, Kasie?

They speed, run red lights and cut people off in traffic? You`ve observed ALL this, yet not one pic or a even so much as a second of video?

No evidence at all?

Then STFU and stop whining, Obamette.

Palin’s two-SUV caravan traveled at 52 miles per hour in a 35 mph zone as it peeled away from the hosts’ neighborhood.

Peeled away at 52 mph?

ROFLMAO! Yeah, I bet this puerile, twit, has never been in a vehicle that "reallly" peeled away and would not recognize a "peel" from a "peal" if it bit her on her posterior.

As someone who grew up in the age of the muscle cars, I can attest to what a "peel" is and even in my best days, and my hottest "iron" (my 1967 GTO)--though it was possible to get a "chirp" when shifting to 2nd gear at that speed--it was/is a rare vehicle that can "lay a strip" (aka "peeled away") at 52 per.

I realize it is simply poor reporting and application of English, but it is fun to turn the tables on these phony, "Jorn-0-Lists!"

Now what I'd pay good money to see, would be that big ol' Motor Home laying a nice strip. lol

Yes, he did need to catch up.

One hilarious idea to REALLY piss off the MSM elitists would be a PA loudspeaker mounted on Sarah`s bus blaring the words, “MOVE ASIDE, LIBERAL SLIME!! BARRACUDA PASSING THROUGH!!”

the age of the muscle cars

Oh Yes, the sound of the chirp, as the muscle car was shifted in yet another gear.

I was a VW driver in '67, when on a road trip with my classmate from flight school. He had a Chevy II with 396 4 speed. He let me drive as he got tired.

I only knew one way to shift (VW style) Clutch in, throttle out, clutch out, throttle in. It was a little wet, but I'm sure I "chirped" in all four gears that night, and I wasn't even trying.

****Palin’s two-SUV caravan traveled at 52 miles per hour in a 35 mph zone as it peeled away from the hosts’ neighborhood*****

Whose speedometer was she referencing??? It’s obvious she was speeding to keep up - or making stuff up.

Who uses 52 MPH when guessing? Most folks use 45 or 55 or 65.

Since she won’t talk to them, they are reduced to chasing her with a radar gun.
