About that "Bridge to Nowhere"...

You know, the one Sarah Palin smugly said "Thanks, but no thanks" to?

Well, what she really means by that (and I'm paraphrasing Stephen Colbert) is:

"Yes, please" to the Bridge to Nowhere...

and then, "Thank you" when she received the federal money...

and THEN, "Thanks, but no thanks" when it became a national scandal...

and thennnnn, was polite enough to keep all of that money.

Those small-town folks sure know their manners.

Reprimanding the media is never a smart tack

So GOP campaign manager Rick Davis lets us know that VP nom Sarah Palin would agree to an interview "when we think it's time and when she feels comfortable doing it."

"Why would we want to throw Sarah Palin into a cycle of piranhas called the news media that have nothing better to ask questions about than her personal life and her children?" said David. 

"Until...we feel like the news media is going to treat her with some level of respect and deference, I think it would be foolhardy to put her out into that kind of environment."

Yeah, you're right. Ya know, with less than two months before Election Day, naturally, the American public is going to agree with that. We don't really want to know anything about this governor of less than 2 years from the frozen tundra of nowhere who just came into the spotlight and might potentially have to run the country for the next 4 to 8 years, but, of course, the likelihood of that is slim being that Republican presidential hopeful McCain is 72 years young and has had cancer before. 

Take your time, GOP! Wait until she's comfortable, please. After all, if the American population decides to elect the next presidential ticket as hastily as you chose your running mate, John, then I'm sure we'll be in good hands.

In the words of Stephen Colbert, "Seriously though, 9/11."

Gov. Palin will be appearing on ABC with softballer Charlie Gibson later this week. Don't hurt her feelings, Chuck.

He's running as an independent Democrat which, if I'm not mistaken, is the political equivilant of a Labradoodle.

It's a Colbert nation people, and we're just living in it.

Oprah: believable or biased?

Former Miss Alaska and Republican VP nominee Sarah Palin isn't destined to benefit from the Oprah bump just yet.  An item circulating in the Drudge Report claiming Oprah's staff was divided over having Palin on the show due to her support of Obama is "categorically untrue", said the Big O herself.

The talk show host issued a statement to TMZ:

"At the beginning of this Presidential campaign when I decided that I was going to take my first public stance in support of a candidate, I made the decision not to use my show as a platform for any of the candidates. I agree that Sarah Palin would be a fantastic interview, and I would love to have her on after the campaign is over."

Gov. Palin could always head on over to the Colbert Report. I'm sure ultra-conservative Stephen Colbert would loveeee to have her on. The Colbert bump works wonders!
