Shameless Political Exploitation Dept: The Cars of Sarah Palin's Youth

Paul Niedermeyer
by Paul Niedermeyer

Hurry home Ed, I’m obviously running out of creativity and good judgment. Bit didn’t you always wonder what Sarah Palin drove in her younger days? MSNBC has posted a Sarah Palin Retrospective, and I should have guessed: one of my all-time least favorite cars ( CC here). And is it the “Grande” version even? Not a Maverick? Well, going back even further into her childhood reveals even more:

Now that’s more like it. And she already has that killer smile. Since we’ve slipped off the edge into the political/social abyss, here’s an interesting take on Sarah and Marilyn Monroe, whom I paired with something a bit more alluring than the Mustang.

    well what do you expect when a political/religion bait is on the hook? I'd like to put in a good word for the elegant Ms. Doud, a good Catholic girl.

    Can we just get this over and elect Palin? LOL! Maybe then people would see how good or how bad she is and we could move on to real tangible problems that need to be solved... GRIN! We waste SO much time on discussing politicians just like we debate sports but so little time demanding real answers and real results. I'd argue that some of the sports discussions I've heard lately had more facts in them than the left vs right, CNN vs Fox, Palin vs Obama debates! We do we bother interviewing politicians when we could look up their voting records? Why don't we actually pin this disaster or that on the party responsible? Oh politics could be so much more fact based that we ask of it. FWIW Palin is just a pretty smile to me. She knows how to charm her way through life and leaves the real work to the underlings. My question every time I hear some Obama bashing begin is what would McCain/Palin do? Obama ain't perfect but he inherited a historic mess. My guess is the McCain/Palin team would have made many of the same choices and same mistakes. This next election is going to suck b/c I don't want to vote for the Republicans who offered so LITTLE to us Americans just to run interference on the Dems. Don't want to vote for the Dems b/c I'm not sure they did everything within their power. Guess I'll just vote out the incumbents...

      The easiest way to win at tug-o-war is to let go of the rope.

  • Ltcmgm78 It depends on whether or not the union is a help or a hindrance to the manufacturer and workers. A union isn't needed if the manufacturer takes care of its workers.
  • Honda1 Unions were needed back in the early days, not needed know. There are plenty of rules and regulations and government agencies that keep companies in line. It's just a money grad and nothing more. Fain is a punk!
  • 1995 SC If the necessary number of employees vote to unionize then yes, they should be unionized. That's how it works.
  • Sobhuza Trooper That Dave Thomas fella sounds like the kind of twit who is oh-so-quick to tell us how easy and fun the bus is for any and all of your personal transportation needs. The time to get to and from the bus stop is never a concern. The time waiting for the bus is never a concern. The time waiting for a connection (if there is one) is never a concern. The weather is never a concern. Whatever you might be carrying or intend to purchase is never a concern. Nope, Boo Cars! Yeah Buses! Buses rule!Needless to say, these twits don't actual take the damn bus.
