Morning, everyone!
The derp continues to pile up in the home of the herp and the land of the Freep. I tried shoveling it into one big pile, but the bucket on the front-end loader sizzled, then fell off.
Observe:

Jindal: 0%
Pataki: 0%
Santorum: 0%Somebody get the cane and pull these losers off the stage.
To: ScottWalkerForPresident2016I can’t believed(sic) plastic Carly is ahead of Cruz and Rubio. I’m not a huge fan of Marcos, but he did have a good debate and is very knowledgeable on foreign affairs. Cruz is the master on the Constitution. I hope people wake up soon enough to the fakery that is Carly Fiorina.

To: ScottWalkerForPresident2016I think Cruz has a personality problem, I can’t figure it. The man is smart as all heck, he should at least be ahead and away from Fiorina

But one day later, Dwyer said ballistics testing determined that the only bullets found at the scene belonged to the officer.Criminal charges are expected against the officer, who has not yet been identified.
The part-time officer had worked with the department for just over a year, but he had not yet completed Police Academy.7 posted on 9/3/2015 3:01:35 PM by raccoonradio
I had the same thing happen.
I was watching it because of Leslie Easterbrook, but when they made Bobcat Goldthwait a regular, I just couldn’t hang.
Had to give it up after “Back In Training”.
C’mon guys – there has to be SOME way you can hang this on the blah people?

Sarah Palin Slips into Self-Parody National Review ^ | January 26, 2015 | Charles C. W. Cooke Posted on 1/26/2015 8:22:08 PM by MinnesotaLibertarian
Skipping to the end:
…
Consider, if you will, what happens to a person who suggests that Sarah Palin is anything other than saintly. Right off the bat, they are accused of disliking America or Alaska or conservatives or mothers or the working class — or even women in general — and then they are informed that their “hatred” is showing. Next, their motives are questioned and their supposedly secret “agenda” is exposed for the world to see, for no right-thinking person could dislike Palin on the merits, natch. “I hope you enjoy your elite cocktail parties,” the apologists will say, and then they will huffily tell you that they “hope signaling that you are ‘one of them’ was worth it.” And finally — as is the case when one expresses disapproval of other cult figures, such as President Obama, Ron Paul, Neil DeGrasse Tyson, and Paul Krugman — it is presumed that all animadversion must be motivated by envy or by snobbery or by secret admiration, and that it can therefore be safely ignored. “What have you done,” they will ask, “that compares to my paragon of virtue?” All told, it’s really quite pathetic.
…
Having been mercilessly and unjustly pilloried by the media throughout the 2008 campaign, Sarah Palin had a clear choice in its aftermath: She could sober up and prove the buggers wrong, or she could collapse into ignominious pasquinade. Sadly, she chose the latter. The rest of us should choose to move on.
*****************
I expect to get flamed by the Palin fan club, but this is one of the best summaries I’ve seen of why she should not be taken seriously as a candidate. It has nothing to do with her policies – it has do with how she conducts herself. I agree entirely that she was not treated fairly by the media in 2008, but she has done nothing but play into the image they’ve created for her ever since. Furthermore, quitting her term as Governor halfway through is a major red flag, and eliminates the credibility of the “executive experience” argument.

To: Cringing Negativism NetworkWhat people are failing to realize that at an event where no one particularly stood out, Palin is the one getting the press. At this point in the 2016 election cycle, there is no such thing as bad press.

To: gov_bean_ counterNo such thing as bad press? Would you call Gerald Ford continuously falling down the stairs of Air Force One good press? Unfortunately, Palin is following in those footsteps.

To: Jack Hydrazine“She’s living in their heads rent-free 24/7.”
______________Repeating this over and over doesn’t change reality. Her speech this weekend was horrible. It looked like she hadn’t given it much thought and believed that all she had to do was show up and she would be fawned over. If she wants to be a contender (and I don’t think she does), she owes it to us to contend.
To: MinnesotaLibertarianI expect to get flamed by the Palin fan club..Yeah. But a few of them have come to the realization that she’s nothing more than a opportunistic huckster.

I wondered if “pasquinade” would have our good friends scratching their heads with their Glocks, trying to figure out how to do a dictionary search. Then giving it up because they didn’t really care about some elite word like that, and damn if Jeopardy isn’t finally over so now they can watch Wheel of Fortune.
I wonder if anyone has told the Freepers that, because of Political Correctness, Obummer mandated that the word ‘gullible’ be removed from dictionaries?
Oh, well, they’ll find out sooner or later.
