FReeper comedy tonight: Sarah draws 100,000 in St. Louis (with pic)

Went over there to slog through the latest garbage, and came upon a St. Sarah thread (and they accuse us of "worshipping" Obama!). Anyway, this is why although most of Free Republic is consumed with repulsive, ignorant hatred, every now and then you get a laugh-out-loud gem, like this one from WVKayaker:

To: maica; onyx

...After all, not only was she an excellent speaker, she was beautiful, athletic, and had a good-looking husband, who apparently was squeaky clean (or we would have heard about any gossip) and who was very supportive of her.
NO DITTO...

IS, not was...


St Louis showed up for Sarah in 2008! 100k+++ then, more probably now!

Take a close look at "Sarah" on the podium. Doesn't she look a bit more like this person?

Anyway, the whole thread is a hoot; they actually take grifter Sarah seriously over there. Think I will buy a DVD of "Game Change;" never saw it but this level of ignorance is almost inspirational, and it's time. Here's the whole thread:

Remember, these are the same folks who post incessantly that slavery had nothing to do with the Civil War, evolution is a fraud, Obama is a Kenyan Marxist atheist communist plant and Rush is a scientist correct about climate change.

More disturbing are the Sandy Hook conspiracy theorists. But, this one lightened my day. Hope the writer is a better kayaker than a photo analyst.

(That's me about three inches to the left and an inch and a half north-by-northeast.)

That was no grifter at the podium!

Too bad about the coffee stain on the collar. But still a great shirt.

Yes, technically, that is a picture of an Obama rally.

But what you fail to realize, in contrast to this insightful Freeper, is that those 100K people turned up to send a message to then-candidate Obama about how much they all liked Sarah Palin.

The WSJ deceptively removed the sound from that picture, as the crowd chanted "Sarah!" the entire time, forcing him to leave the stage.

That last part of the story, again, was silenced by the complicit socialist media.

Or something like that, I'm sure.

I must agree. But it wasn't just silenced by the complicit socialist media, it was silenced by the complicit socialist, leftist, Marxist, Muslin, commie, Nazi media. (Did I hit them all?)

but about 1/3 of way in, Julianne Moore becomes Sarah, and it turns into a rather fascinating peep into the train wreck we all remember.
The pre-debate fiasco is detailed well, we find out why she wanted to call Biden "joe".
Not for the reason of setting him up, as has been reported.
Glad I saw it.
