We’ve had Bush Derangement Syndrome. Cheney Derangement Syndrome. Female Conservative Derangement Syndrome. And Palin Derangement Syndrome.
But this week, the blogging world saw the first definitive case of Palin-Induced Psychosis suffered by the Atlantic magazine’s Andrew Sullivan.
It’s not a pretty sight.
Watch him completely unravel here and here.
Jules Crittenden provides a road map to Crazytown.
The meltdown has [...]

Everyone has commented on the cover photo of Sarah Palin that Newsweek editors used — a photo from a Runner’s World spread taken during the campaign.
Whatever the intentions of the left-wing Newsweek editors, I think Sarah looks fabulous.
The truly tasteless photo of Palin that no one is talking about is inside the magazine on p. [...]

“Extreme” in a skirt.

Nightmare on Eighth Avenue.

Halloween treat.

Scroll down for updates…Palin endorses conservative Doug Hoffman…
From reader Barnaby, who sent back his crossed-out Republican solicitation forms with a “NO RINOS” sticky note for Newt Gingrich:

From reader K., a message to GOP Rep. Jeb Hensarling’s office:
As you’ve hopefully figured out by now, your boss really stepped in it with the endorsement of this left-winger [...]

Busy with family.
Throwing out a couple discussion topics:
* What good is an “opposition” party that wants to elect its own worst opponents? Related: Where is Sarah Palin?

* Rush shreds the RAAAAAAACIST card. Related: First newspaper retracts fake RAAAACIST Rush quotes.
* Out: Dissent is patriotic! In: Fox News Channel’s dissenting anchors are unpatriotic!
* ACORN whistleblower [...]

Check out the latest Rasmussen numbers measuring the American public’s mood:
For nearly two years, economic issues have held the top spot in terms of importance among voters.
But the latest national telephone survey shows that 83% now view government ethics and corruption as very important, placing it just ahead of the economy on a list of [...]

The AP reports that Sarah Palin’s memoir will be published on Nov. 17.
The title is “Going Rogue” — an allusion to the in-fighting between Team Sarah and the McCainiancs that broke out in the last weeks of the campaign.
Should be quite a compelling read.

Something horrible happened to Bill Sparkman, who worked part-time as a Census worker in rural southeastern Kentucky.
He was found dead. Tied to a tree. Preliminary tests show he died of asphyxiation.
But the “cause of Sparkman’s death is under investigation, and authorities have not ruled out suicide, an accident or homicide, said Kentucky state police spokesman [...]

The Obamacare supporters in Colorado are on an unlucky streak.
Last week, Democrats falsely accused conservative opponents of the health care takeover of vandalizing their party headquarters. Turned out the “hate crime” was perpetrated by anarchist nutballs.
Next, supporters of Congressman John Salazar falsely accused a town hall protester of hurling a death threat at the Democrat.
It’s [...]

Your daily dose of Democrat alarmism just got delivered to my email box from Democrats.com and the League of Conservation Voters.
Sarah Palin-bashing? Check.
Rush Limbaugh-bashing? Check.
Ironic Newt Gingrich-demonizing? Check.
Ironic Big Oil-bashing? Check.
Politics of fear? What politics of fear? Ohhhh, yeah, that politics of fear:
Dear Friend,
We’re about to face the most important global warming vote in years [...]

In case you missed it yesterday, Rush Limbaugh and Glenn Beck spotlighted Team Obama’s direct and indirect threats to free speech — and how the Fairness Doctrine (or some stealthier form of it) might be reinstituted.
Watch the whole thing.
Rush has the full transcript. An excerpt:

BECK: Now joining me on the phone is radio talk [...]

Reader Christy e-mails:
Michelle,
I am a pediatrician in Southern Indiana in Rep. Baron Hill’s district. I was actually contacted by the WaPo to give my thoughts on this situation. I was asked by a friend to do this and needless to say, I was quite nervous about what the liberal journalist from the WaPo [...]

Sarah Palin’s warning about the effects of Obamacare on the elderly and infirm have been met with derision and ridicule. William Jacobson has a good round-up.
Meanwhile, the effects of socialized medicine in Britain — engineered by government-run cost-cutting panels on which Obamacare would be modeled — continue to wreak havoc on the elderly and infirm:
*Elderly [...]

Lots of heavy media anticipation over a Sarah Palin announcement expected any minute from Wasilla.
Here’s CBS:
There was no indication as to the topic of the announcement.
CBSNews.com producer Scott Conroy, who covered Palin’s vice presidential campaign last year, said it is rare that Palin sends a press release out nationally.
Feel free to [...]

I don’t find anything funny about the Sanford affair. It’s the mom in me thinking about four handsome boys on Father’s Day weekend abandoned by their stupid, selfish father, who was busy tanning with his mistress in Argentina. Heart-breaking. Yes. Nauseating. Yes. Maddening. Yes. Funny? No.
Cruel derision crude humor are to be expected of the [...]

Unlike other self-esteem-lacking wives of cheaters, Jenny Sanford shows real courage, class, and dignity in her statement to the press — and in her decision NOT to stand by her adulterous husband at his public confession.
Godspeed, Mrs. Sanford. Via McClatchy:
I would like to start by saying I love my husband and I believe I have [...]

Bad joke.

My syndicated column today fixes the spotlight on David “The Perv” Letterman’s contempt for women. Yesterday morning, I noted the silence of the feminists. Last night, NOW finally spoke up — but not without taking a holier-than-thou potshot of its own. I suggest they all review the Four Stages of Conservative Female Abuse before wagging [...]

It’s all a freaking game to dirty old David Letterman.
For shame.
Can you imagine him talking about the Obama daughters this way? Via EW, h/t Hot Air:
“We were, as we often do, making jokes about people in the news and we made some jokes about Sarah Palin and her daughter [Bristol]… and now they’re upset [...]

Speaking of liberal sexist pigs, here’s David Letterman bashing Sarah and her daughter.
Palin responds here.

I’ve been seeing a lemming-like increase in hand-wringing articles about the need for a GOP “hero.”
The latest comes from McCain/Bush flack Nicolle Wallace in “The Daily Beast” — Tina Brown’s liberal salon sprinkled with acceptable, non-conservative Beltway Republicans who swallow false premises whole.
Wallace parrots the line that the Republican Party needs an “effective communicator” who [...]

I spent a blissful Mother’s Day weekend unplugged and away from the news. So if you’re looking for outrage, faux outrage, and extended commentary on all the narcissism and nastiness at the White House Correspondents Dinner, you’ll have to look elsewhere.
In a nutshell: Liberal comedian Wanda Sykes indulged in Palin-bashing, Rush Derangement Syndrome, and [...]

Sarah Palin is now using Twitter (AKGovSarahPalin), and I see she’s increased about 100 followers just in the time to write this sentence.
Update: Maybe the governor will be doing some Tweeting about her upcoming appearance on American Chopper. I think I’ll go to the Sturgis rally this August… ya know, just in case.
Update II: [...]

D’ohbama.

“Hand check, Larry!”

You know what’s wrong with Meghan McCain? It’s not her weight. It’s not her voice. It’s not her looks. She’s a beautiful young girl with TV-friendly poise and natural charm. The trouble with Meghan McCain is that, like her father, she has no fixed ideological principles — conservative, liberal, or otherwise. She seems to have [...]

It is reassuring that there are federal officials out there who still taking the Sarah Palin e-mail hacking case seriously. Appreciate this while it lasts. (You can find all my reports/blogging on the matter here.) Latest development: Turns out that the defendant — David Kernell, the son of a Democratic Tennessee legislator — has [...]

Heckuva job, Kathy!
