All I want is for The Daily Show to do a segment on the Palin Brawl and I won’t ask for anything else for Christmas I promise.

“Oh wait, mercy me,” the voice said. “I thought it was five ISIS militants comin’ to get me, turns out it was my own little hand, reachin’ for my coffee mug. Lordy, my heart’s thumpin’ faster than a jackrabbit in a huckleberry pie.”
Good thing I wasn’t drinking coffee when I read that.
South Carolina sure does produce some strange politicians. Yikes.

That’s the image I’m getting all right.
and it speaks volumes about the success of the screeching fear-mongering done by this pathetic nervous nelly that graham is leading in the south carolina polls. way to go, citizens of south carolina.
I have to believe that the deviously creative writers at TDS are cooking up a Baked Alaska filled with bar-brawling anecdotes and snark punches directed squarley at Momma Grizzly…as soon as the video or audio recording leaks. Let it be so!

I’m sure they’re savoring the information and working hard to come
up with something worthy. Either that or stunned by the surfeit of
riches that’s been dropped in their laps - “where do we even
BEGIN”?

Has anybody ever seen any of Lindsay’s family members that he’s protecting from roving bands of Hoodi-wearing, Skittles-armed hordes?

May your wish come schadenfreudeliciously true. There are reasons to think video might be delayed (owner greed and Palin disapproval) but oh baby there’s a bit of demand out there in the market.

Thus has it been since before the Revolution. Things get strange the second you cross the South Cackalacky border and the deeper into it you get, the stranger it gets. Savannah, New Orleans, Louisiana generally, Key West, any other place that has a reputation for being weird has nothing on South Carolina. And the weird is intensified by an order of magnitude when it has something intrinsically bad to work on.
The second the Revolution crossed the border of that state, it turned uglier than anywhere else. Ditto slavery–stranger and weirder and in some ways more uniquely awful in rice country than even in the cotton states.

I’m guessing the owner of the tape went directly to TMZ and they’re now in the process of hammering out a deal. The tape, assuming the quality is decent and Batshit Barbie is seen engaged in the fight, should be worth well into six figures.
I’m hoping it’s bad enough that even McCain will be forced to comment on it.

So, when do we out Graham as a self-loathing homophobe?

You are, overgenerously in my opinion, leaving out some real humdingers such as John C. Calhoun and Preston Brooks. South Carolina more or less single-handedly started the Civil War.
I have to wonder how this man lives with himself. Either he actually believes the nonsense he has spouted over 13 years or he is a sociopath who is manipulating people for the sake of power and attention.

Or in Aunt Lindsey’s case, the “Blair Bitch Project”…
