Just one more reason we know the Palin pick was righteous.

Not that I care a whit about that ugly collagened bitch Sandra Bernhard, but WTF?

The Washington Post isn’t the only daily D.C. newspaper to rave about Sandra Bernhard’s anti-Palin ranting. Wednesday’s Washington Examiner joined in, with the headline “Comedienne delivers enraged optimism.” Barbara Mackay claimed “in the end, oddly and subtly, Bernhard’s message is positive.”
That’s not the impression you’d get from the blog of Theater J, where Bernhard is appearing. It has video of Bernhard calling Palin “Uncle Women,” a “turncoat b—h” and a “whore.” One complaint on the blog that Bernhard crosses a line of political incorrectness draws a defense from Ari Roth of Theater J that really drops the curtain on how coarse this show is:

In fact, the play wears its politically VERY correct heart on its sleeve with its indictment of America as “A Man’s World, It’s a White Man’s World, It’s a F–ked Up White Man’s Racist World” and can only be suggested to be racist in its content if one is hell-bent on protecting White Folk for Sandra’s blistering indictment.When Sandra warns Sarah Palin not to come into Manhattan lest she get gang-raped by some of Sandra’s big black brothers, she’s being provocative, combative, humorous, and yes, let’s allow, disgusting.
The fact that the show has a few riffs like this does not — to my mind — make it a “disgusting show.” there’s too much beauty, variety, vitality, and intelligence to label the entire show as “disgusting.” I’ll agree with you that we produced this show because we did find it to be edgy — because we wanted to give right wing conservative Jews a good run for their money by being on the receiving end of some blistering indictments from Sandra.Does it go over the edge sometimes? On the gang-rape joke, yes. Sure. Not much else. It goes over the edge and then comes right back to the cutting edge. [Profanity editing is mine.]

Forgive me if gang-rape jokes don’t greet my ears as oddly and subtly positive, as the Examiner suggests, and forgive me if gang-rape jokes aren’t “a rotating sprinkler that a spectator washes in most happily,” like the Washington Post insists.

Shut up and sing, bitch. Or do us all a favor and drop dead.

Jeff has the video. I refuse to link to it.

Per Fox,

The Canadian Broadcasting Corporation is reviewing complaints from both Americans and Canadians about a Web site columnist who recently described Sarah Palin’s supporters as “white trash,” compared the vice presidential candidate to a “porn actress”and called her daughter’s boyfriend a “redneck” and “ratboy.”
The incendiary column by Toronto-based writer Heather Mallick appeared on the CBC News site on Sept. 5, after the close of the Republican National Convention. On the same day, Britain’s Guardian newspaper published another column by Mallick in which she trashed Palin’s home state of Alaska as a “frontier state full of drunks and crazy people.”
In the CBC story, Mallick wrote that John McCain’s running mate “added nothing to the ticket that the Republicans didn’t already have sewn up, the white trash vote.”

Sheesh. It’s not even worth fisking her, other than to wonder what the hell she cares — she doesn’t have a vote to begin with.
This is good, though:

“We love our own north to the point of covering our eyes and humming as it melts … but Alaska is different from our north,” she wrote. “We share a 1,500-mile border with a frontier state full of drunks and crazy people, of the blight that cheap-built structures bring to a glorious landscape.”

Uh. I’ve been to Canada, ma’am. I think Alaskans might have similar things to say about you.

The more the left rags on Sarah Palin, the more convinced I am to vote McCain-Palin. Good looks, cute family and great speaking aside, if they’re trying that hard to fling something at her that will stick, she must be the greatest conservative politician we’ve seen since Reagan.
My own mother sent me an email yesterday containing a stupid forwarded article bashing Palin, repeating all the stupid crap we’ve already heard and seen debunked.
The left is so frightened of her that they can’t even see she’s running for VICE president.

Roger Ebert, on Sarah Palin: “And how can you be her age and never have gone to Europe? … Sarah Palin’s travel record is that of a hopeless provincial.”
I’m older than Sarah Palin and I’ve never been to Europe. And frankly I don’t think I’ve missed out on much, and I do not consider myself a “hopeless provincial” by any stretch of the imagination.
I do consider Roger Ebert a hopeless Hollywood parasite.
Anyway, the Palin Derangement Syndrome is strong in this one.
