by Blue Stockings | . As the lady says, If You Are Undecided, You’re Not Paying Attention. (McArdle and Althouse, take note). In answer to a plangent inquiry from an undecided voter who can't decide how to decide, Helen writes:
Oh Cecilia, bless your heart. We have only been at this for two years, sweetheart. There were over 40 debates during the primaries and most recently we have had three Presidential debates and one Vice Presidential debate. Honey, I trust you can read. Please do because this is important. And I am not trying to be mean or dismissive...
et’s start with John McCain. Picking Sarah Palin was John McCain’s first big decision after winning the nomination. In an earlier interview McCain said he didn’t know much about the economy but he would probably pick a Vice President who could help him on that. Palin? Really? Palin. She went to five colleges and finally got an undergraduate degree in journalism. And if you have watched her interviews with journalists, you have to wonder how much of that degree sank in. Sarah Palin - definitly not the sharpest tool in the shed.
She was mayor of Wasilla - a city population of 7,000. Then off to the governor’s mansion in a state with a population of 700,000. Honestly, there are more beavers in Alaska than people. But this is the person who is going to explain the complexities of one of the largest economies on the globe to John McCain. I’m pretty sure they don’t have enough fingers and toes between them to count that high. (By the way, I say one of the largest economies because under George W. Bush’s Confederacy of Dunces the European Union flew past us.)...
If I hear that McCain is a Maverick one more time I just might throw myself to the floor and break a hip. A maverick is an independent individual who doesn’t go along with a group or party. If John McCain’s a maverick I am one of those cheerleaders on the sidelines of Harold’s beloved Dallas Cowboys. Nobody seems to dispute that the Republican party led by George W. Bush got us into this mess but what everybody seems to forget is that Sarah Palin and John McCain are Republicans. (And on goes teh Awesome)
Helen, you rock.
Princess Sparkle Pony says:
OK, so Margaret and Helen are two 80-somethings who are best friends since, like, forever. One of them moved far away, so Helen got her son to set up one of those blog thingies for her so that she could keep in touch with Margaret. And then before you know it, Helen's off on a wild tear, writing the most hilarious and awe-inspiring rants about Sarah Palin you've ever read. Helen's not afraid to call Sarah a bitch and she'll tell you exactly why.
Some people are calling bullshit on Margaret and Helen, but I've got no reason to doubt their story. If it's fake, it's pure genius; if it's real, it deserves the American Medal of Freedom.
Yes, it does---especially the last bit:
So tell me again why you are undecided?
Oh yes I forgot. The terrorists are going to get us.
Folks, I’m tired of living in fear. Life is too short. How about we try hope and optimism again and see how that works. It created the greatest nation in history and the world is better for it.
Given this report that 23% of Texans think Obama is Muslim, it's nice to see some common sense coming out of Texas.
Sarah Palin is a Bitch… there I said it.
Yep. I called her a bitch and I am not taking it back.
Elisabeth is a moron and then I have something important to say
Helen is one sick, nasty, mean old lady. Sarah Palin is the epitome of a strong, self-made woman. Her only fault is that she is a conservative. Put a "D" after her name instead of an "R" and she becomes the greatest since sliced bread.
I suppose that she thinks Pelosi, Hillary, Boxer, McKinney and Bernadine Dohrn are all the greatest. Like I said, she is one sick old lady.

Anyone know the real identities of these "ladies" I think it is time they were exposed for the frauds they are. I am dedicating significant resources to expose these two individuals and some monetary incentive for any information leading to the read identity of these ladies and their grandson.
