Helen lets another one rip: "28% of Americans don’t think Sarah Palin is an Idiot"
:rofl:

"That was a hoot. All those people reading my little blog and getting so upset. Who knew there were so many people who still enjoy hearing Palin talk? Then again who knew Palin supporters were smart enough to read?

There sure were a lot of comments about how old I am. You want in on a little secret? The picture on the top there was taken several years ago. I look even older now. But I still have my figure! Now Margaret, on the other hand, looks terrific. She walks everyday. Eats right. She’ll out live the whole lot of us.

My favorite thing about young people is that they never look back. They are always looking ahead. That’s why when they see someone like me - and by “like me” I mean old - they see a life almost over instead of the life that has been lived. If I could give them just one piece of advice it would be to make sure you get to the end of your life with no regrets. Don’t misinterpret. I didn’t say with no mistakes. I said no regrets. If the worst thing I have done in this world is calling Sarah Palin a bitch then I haven’t lived much of a life. And if it’s the best thing I’ve done then I would have a lot of regrets..."

Willie" Geist is gonna get an e-mail from me about this story.

He loves to taunt Mika, Pat and Joe sometimes.

22. Oh no they don't.
I live in Tennessee - one of the three states in the entire union to vote MORE Republican in 2008. I think we have far more than our share of that 28 percent.

Which reminds me - when are you liberal DUers going to move to Tennessee? We still have jobs available. Cost of living is low. Taxes are low. We NEED you here!

8. I like this part, in regard to one of the nasty letters defending Palin...
"Ignore the spelling and grammer errors. I’m sure she was typing fast and trying to read the bible at the same time so we’ll give her the benefit of the doubt."

:rofl:

10. I love, love, love Helen!
I was unaware that she even had a blog. I suggest eveyone, at least, read her About page - http://margaretandhelen.wordpress.com/about/

One of my favorites from her November 28 rant...



Same goes for Ann Coulter. Have you read any of her books. I read a few pages of her last one and it made me wonder if she ever actually went to school. My daughter is a teacher and the kids in her second grade class can write better than that. Ann’s an idiot who also needs to sit down and shut the hell up. And while you’re at it, Ann, cross your legs. Nobody needs to see that.

:rofl:

Going back to read some more.

18. The bad thing is that 28% have been inbreeding down there for the last 4 or 5 generations
Orwell must have figured it out when he kept on hearing people chanting "The south will rise again" :crazy:

19. I loved this line
"Rush Limbaugh is like me - old, fat and opinionated. The difference is that I am also funny while he is just old and fat."

20. In their defense
Sarah Palin does have a very low IQ, but she may be in the 28th percentile.

21. 28% of Americans don’t think.
You really don't even need the end of that sentence.
Probably half of those are trying hard not to think. The other half just don't have the ability.
