How to alienate your former future mother-in-law and make some cash on the side.

Bristol Palin and Sarah Palin have more in common than being related. They both have been screwed by Levi Johnston. Someone has cleaned up Levi Johnston and now he looks like a new man. He went from looking like Cooter to a “broke” Rob Thomas. What a difference a haircut and some cash can make. Now Levi is singing like a jail house snitch to anyone who will listen. The first stop on his gab tour is Vanity Fair. In the olden days (just 3 years ago) people would have rushed out to pick up Vanity Fair. But due to the recent discovery that print is dead, I’m sure that people will try to read it on-line. Opps…they are only giving a teaser on the magazine’s website. I guess they want people to really pick up their magazine after September 8. Now you have to make a Labor Day decision. Do you spend your last money at the club on September 6 or save your cash to buy the October issue of Vanity Fair?


To the beer and beaver trapper set, Palin is like an Alaskan version of Jacqueline Kennedy (before she married that Onassis dude – because you know how “they” feel about foreigners). In some circles she is a popular figure that can draw a crowd like a moth to a flame. To the people that can’t stand her, (the educated right wing set, most black women I know, extremely liberal white woman), she is a pretentious hillbilly. Citizen Momma has questioned her educational background due to the number of undergrad schools she attended. Sometimes finding a good school is like trying on a pair of shoes. Palin just happens to like a lot of shoes (five different colleges in six years). So what can Levi possibly tell us that we don’t already know? He didn’t have a problem in 08’ when he was in the public eye. I guess hanging with Cindy McCain and flying on private jets has its perks.


I know you are probably saying “Citizen, you are being hard on the kid.” I don’t hate him for trying to make an extra buck. We are in a recession so I understand him telling his business for a limo ride and a new suit. I just don’t want to hear it or read about it. I already know Sarah Palin is a fraud. No new news there!!! Her lack of professionalism and inept way of getting her point across is glaring. She is the kind of person that skates through life on good looks and personality. Like the girl in your company that wears her skirts too high. On Monday she was working in the mail room and on Thursday she is team lead in the Marketing Department. I know you are probably saying “Citizen, you are being sexist.” Nope!! I am all for gender equality. Ask Citizen Wifey!!! My problem is when a Constitutional Lawyer (President Obama) is being compared as an equal to someone that bounced around from school to school trying to find what sticks (Somewhat Governor Palin). I knew Palin wasn’t about much when I first laid eyes on her so I don’t acknowledge her as a legitimate politician. So Vanity Fair won’t be getting any money from me. Sorry Levi, I’m not mad at you, but your subject material is kinda weak.

Joe Six-Pack and the Hockey Mom’s: How the Republicans put in the FIX on the Vice Presidential Debate.

Gwen Ifill had to defend her job moderating the U.S. Vice presidential debate over a book that didn’t even come out yet. Her yet to be read book, Breakthrough: Politics and Race in the Age of Obama, has right wing pundits crying foul. I find it funny when folks from the right talk about bias and double standards. The road to the White House has been paved with double standards. Why does Barack Obama have to “knock it out of the park” when he debates but Sarah Palin has to “just get by”? To all the people that read this Blog including my momma (hey mom)!! The FIX is in!!!!!!

You heard me people!!! The bar has been set so low for Palin, that all she needs to do is dance around the ring (aka) the rope a dope. The FIX is in!!! Tina Fey sautéed Palin on Saturday Night Live last week and Katie Couric tripped her up on light-weight questions. Palin doesn’t have an answer for McCain’s exit strategy. She just passes the blame onto Obama and how he is not ready to be president yada yada yada.. Gwen Ifill should have taken the paper that had all the Foreign Policy questions and wiped her behind with them. Palin knows Foreign Policy like I know Cryogenics. People, the FIX is in!!!! Palin didn’t answer questions - just re-directed them back at Obama (oops he was not on the stage someone should have told Palin that). What makes her think that she can give a shout out? Are you at a debate or the Tom Joyner Morning Show? That paper that Palin is looking at must have the word Maverick on it because that is all she keeps saying.

Palin is the kind of peppy cheerleader that you vote on for high school senior class president. She helps you get new soda machines in the cafeteria, organizes pep rallies for the homecoming game and raises money for band boosters. That’s the extent of what she can do. This folksy down home routine is not going to work with people I know (i.e. black folks).

I heard a reporter say that a white man called this election “A Devils Choice”. This was because he had to make a decision between a Black Man and a White Woman. When did Palin go to the top of the ticket? Only a lame presidential candidate could be passed by his number 2. On paper Palin couldn’t hold Obama’s jock strap but this election is not going to be on paper. It’s going to be just like American Idol… a popularity contest. Things will have to get worse before color is negated. Then it will be a decision between “A vote for your purse/pocketbook or your prejudice”.

My left pinky toe could have done a better job as moderator than Gwen Ifill. She looked and asked questions like someone had kidnapped her parents and told her if she stepped out of line they would be killed. She needs to get a new backbone, new questions, new outfit and a new hairdo. I couldn’t wait for the debate (or lack thereof) to be over. This wasn’t a showdown. People……the FIX is in!!!
