Angry Black Lady Chronicles
If you don’t think Sarah Palin is qualified to be President…then you’re probably gay.
You betcha!
Or at least according to the legions of whackos in the comments section of Free Republic.
The GOP has a problem… the howling and screaming coming from the most insanely neocon faction of its party is growing louder. That voice includes the mind-numbingly annoying shriek of Sarah Palin who, despite being totally incompetent, looks like a likely candidate for either the GOP or for some nascent Tea Party Party, even though members of her own party refuse to say out loud that she is qualified. It’s like saying “Bloody Mary” three times in front of a mirror; the likelihood is that nothing bad will happen, but it’s best to keep your yap trapped on the off chance you’ll turn around and find some crazy lady humming the Battle Hymn of the Republic while wielding a bloody knife rifle.
Last month Haley Barbour, Mississippi Governor and President of the Republican Governor’s Association wouldn’t/couldn’t say she was qualified. A couple days ago, House Minority Whip Eric Cantor also dodged the question.
People. SHE’S NOT QUALIFIED.
Here’s how the exchange should go when a question about Sarah Palin’s presidential qualifications is posed:
“Is Sarah Palin qualified to be President?”
“No.”
“What about the fact that…”
“No.”
“Even if she…”
“No.”
“But…”
“NO.”
“Are you gay?”

blah says:I know this sounds weird, but I think it’s just sort of disrespectful to wear the flag in a shirt, bikini or jacket. It just seems like it’s in bad taste, ya know? “Oh gee, lets take the symbol of our nation and use it to swaddle my crotch and cover my lady blossoms”.

TheHobo says:What I find more interesting is that a flag thong (even if that’s not what she’s wearing…that thing is still riding up something awful looking) and cantaloupe holders are okay.
But burning the flag is wrong.
Letting a flag touch the ground is wrong.
Letting a flag hang outside at night without a light shining on it is wrong.
But, again, wearing one to the pool…a-okay.

Lisa(#1) says:Can we all agree, though, that flag bandanas are bad-ass and totes respectful?

SeaKat says:You guys do know that’s a photshopped image, right? It made the rounds a while ago but isn’t actually her.
It is considered disrespectful and inappropriate (by US Military standards, as I understand them. I’m sure blah or lava could confirm this?) to make any garment OUT of a flag, even one that is tattered/torn/ready for disposal.
Her red and white striped top and bottoms with white stars on a blue field are certainly evocative of a flag, but are most likely not MADE from a flag. So even if this was her, she would probably be in the clear, you know - from a flag etiquette POV, if not from a taste/fashion police stance.
Also, Hobo, they actually dispose of flags by burning them. But it’s done with a certain amount of ceremony and respect. I think it’s only burning a flag in effigy - essentially as a stand-in for the US itself- that is considered offensive.

blah says:Yes, I know this is photoshopped. I don’t remember where I saw the original.
The proper way to dispose of a flag is to cut off the union (the star part) and burn it. You’re supposed to do it after the flag has been excessively damaged by the elements or something else. Also it is not supposed to do it in public. There’s actually a website that gives you an address to send all your old flags where they will be properly disposed. Can’t remember it off the top of my head…
I know there’s really no flag etiquette regarding this, and I know people’s hearts are in the right place when they wear stuff like this. I just don’t like seeing our flag like that; it’s tacky and just bugs me.

SeaKat says:Wait, what?? There’s no flag etiquette? I thought that the hubby had to learn some guide to flag handling at some point in his early military career? Did I hallucinate that?
And -cool, I just couldn’t tell if everyone knew that wasn’t actually Palin.
Personally, I don’t mind when people wear the graphic elements of a flag, even together. It just doesn’t really bug me. But I hate it when they have an image of the flag itself on their ass (like back pocket) or something like that. I also hate, hate, HATE it when people have some xenophobic/racist/red-neckery-disguised-as-patriotism slogan combined with the image of a flag. That’s not what our country is supposed to stand for. TMIMO.

blah says:No no no, there is flag etiquette; I just meant no rules per se about wearing it or anything like that.
December 16th, 2009 at 9:14 PM
SeaKat says:Oh, got it. Yeah, it’s not illegal or anything. This I knew. And by the way, I hope you read the “did I hallucinate that?” as an actual question and not an accusation.
In other words, I meant: “Hmmm, am I losing my mind again?” rather than “Are you SAYING that I am MAKING THIS UP??”

TheHobo says:Funny like a clown?
I did not know that was photoshopped. However, in my defense, I avoided as much about Palin as I could because stuff on her makes my brain bleed.
But now that I know it’s photoshopped I’m going to pretend it’s I don’t know that and keep asking Birthers about it in a very angry and self-righteous way, even if they give me proof it’s photoshopped.
