In perhaps the worst possible development for the radical left since the discovery of Karl Rove's now infamous "Weather Machine," Governor Palin's recently exposed top secret "laugh track" machine appears to also have even more dastardly powers than were originally feared.In addition to altering the space-time continuum, and reprogramming the master computers at NBC to cause laughter during Sarah's monologue to appear where none had been before, and send well-intentioned jeers and "groans" from her wannabe stalkers into the abyss this mysterious device apparently also exerts some kind of irresistible mind control powers over the loyal fans of "American Idol" megastar Adam Lambert, causing many of them to actually like the producer of the upcoming new "Alaska Valley Days" TV series, Governor Sarah Palin.
Or, at least, that's what the Kos Kids would like you to believe.
Many of those wacky ultra-left "conspiracy-mongers" who post at such online cesspools as the Daily Kos, Huffpo and DU have been foaming at the mouth all week about Sarah's "rock star" performance during for last week's taping of "Day Two" of Jay Leno's return to the traditional 11:35 pm time slot for the "Tonight Show."
Since I was actually in the studio audience last week when Governor Palin made her "comedy debut" with a small band of "Palin palm print"-bearing FReepers (and FRiends) who had crashed the party with the intention of acting as "Ed McMahon" to Sarah's "Johnny Carson" I call BS on their widely-reported, but easily-debunked, "laugh track" conspiracy theory.
In my not so humble opinion, however, the REAL "back story" behind last week's studio audience, which has naturally NOT been covered in the "State-Controlled Media" was that a huge percentage of that relatively "pro-Palin" audience last week were "glamberts" that is, hard core fans of "American Idol" singer Adam Lambert, whom many music lovers view as a contemporary reincarnation of Elvis. (Or, perhaps Liberace.)
In this thread, which will serve as the "after action" report for our recent Leno FReep, I intend to explore this strange and very unexpected (to me) twist on the controversial "big tent" philosophy of the new Republican party. And that strange new twist is, many Adam Lambert fans support Sarah Palin!
I am particularly interested in hearing on this thread from ADAM LAMBERT FANS who support Sarah Palin, but I would also like to hear from CONSERVATIVES who may have reservations about welcoming this new group of Palin supporters, many of whom have been NOT previously been engaged (or informed) in the political arena.
Personally, I like the concept of "My tent, my rules."
That is, we welcome the electoral support of just about ANYBODY but only on OUR terms. I believe that the conservative political movement should be like America itself: everyone is welcome here IF you agree to certain fundamental, non-negotiable principles.
Please post YOUR comments and opinions about Sarah Palin and the "glamberts" here.
Thank you,

You’re a man with ownership over his own life—congrats!
I did not even see the Leno show on TV; I heard so many great things about it that I watched it later, online. I knew there had been a contingent of FReepers in the audience, and I felt like I could “hear” them, because they were laughing with “conservative emplasis” (if that makes sense) at all the right places.
I have been searching for the major flaws of Sarah Palin. Loved her book, still searching. I like just about everything the woman writes and says. I’d like her in some form of leadership for the conservative movement, and we’ve done a lot worse than to have a President Palin.
Here is the clincher: I love Adam Lambert. I have bought a lot of his songs. I hated what he did on national TV on that awards show. He comes from a very nice family, he is very bright and talented, and I am hoping he gets over his focus on his sexuality, because his fans have. He can interpret a song like nobody’s business. Check out Aerosmith’s “Crying.” Adam’s is BETTER.
LOL!!
He dresses like Liza Minnelli.
That is a big clue!
If you think that "entertainment today" is the only way she can "break through the media-lock" on her, or garner admiration and respect from our citizenry by being a tabloid regular, then we have nothing further to say to each other.
If you've ever studied modern-era history of women who have risen to the top spots in their respective countries, I assure you they didn't attain their positions by being former stand-up comediennes or dancing with the stars.
I don't care what she does, believe me. I'm just saying that in my personal opinion she's not enhancing her resume. I've lost interest in her as a presidential candidate because of a variety of bad decisions she's made and seems hell-bent on continuing to do so.
Again, I don't believe she intends to run for the highest office in 2012.

Works for me.
Measure once, cut twice, count fingers......
The guy has metal stuck in his ear
Does American Idol ever have any male winners that are NOT gay?
LOL!!!
Two possible reasons:
One of the downsides of one network getting the contract for Olympic coverage seems to be that no other network ever mentions them.
or (my preferred reason)
The Olympics stress the competition between nations. Athletes march in with the flags of their countries. National anthems are played at medal ceremonies. Present day medialogues are anti-national and pro-global, and particularly, anti-American-patriotism, so they choose to ignore coverage of these athletes.
When Brian Williams? interviewed vp Biden after the opening ceremonies, he mentioned that his son was enthralled by a hockey player from Russia who is a star for the Washington Capitals, so he was planning to root for the Russian team at the Olympics. Williams asked Biden what he should tell him.
The Vice-president of the United States, officially representing the United States at that ceremony, replied that he would never presume to tell a parent how to raise a child!!!!!
Not one word about rooting for the "home" team for this tournament, and then root for the Capitals when this guy got back to DC.
Not one word about having any feeling for our own country to win at Something!!! Williams' child is a six-year-old. His future outlook on his citizenship is being formed now, and patriotism is apparently not a concern to VPOTUS.
You can lead a gift horse to water nine times, but you can never look in it's mouth.Was that by Winston Churchill? Or, maybe Mark Twain?
I always get those two confused. ;)On a similar note, I think that Governor Palin slightly mis-quoted Churchill and/or Twain here:
"It's like the old saying where a lie can travel halfway around the world before truth even has a chance to get its pants on in the morning."
To be fair, although I regret her decision, I admire her loyalty. She wouldn't be in the national spotlight without him. She kinda does owe the old liberal codger.
Culture Club (gay), Erasure (gay), Bronski Beat (gay), Flock of Seagulls (flambouyant), Adam & the Ants (flambouyant), The Cure (flambouyant), etc, etc.
If Lambert fans like Palin, I say good!
I loved Adam Lambert on Idol last year (although I'm not so fond of his professional career so far), and I also have a lot of respect and admiration for Sarah Palin.There's ANOTHER one! :o)
Funny. I've never seen you with black nails...
Thanks for the tip, I checked it out: good stuff. Even the line under the clip on The Daily Show site is positive.

I know of many die-hard conservatives who are Adam Lambert fans. He may be a super-swisher but he’s talented.
