Shut the fuck up about Palin already or participate in any one of the 200 existing threads about her before starting your own thread with your all important viewpoint. I think we should use the new Side Forums to set up a Palin forum so I don’t have to sift through all the Palin shit to get to the good shit. (and by good shit I don’t mean the NSFW thread. Some wierd looking dudes on this board.) ---

Can I add an addendum? BRICKER BRICKER BRICKER. Shut the fuck up about him being unfairly treated and rehashing the same crap in thread after thread after thread after thread. Both sides are annoying the piss out of me. ---

(and by good shit I don’t mean the NSFW thread. Some wierd looking dudes on this board.) Sure thing. Just remove her from the ticket, and we’ll start all over fresh. ---

The old British term for what in America are called airports – places where one keeps and accesses airplanes – is an _aerodrome_. So a forum where threads relating to Sarah Palin are kept and may be accessed – call it The Palin Drome! ---

On behalf of palindromes everywhere, we don’t want her. To the OP, you do realize that there’s already at least one open “STFU about Palin” thread going, right? Any particular reason you decided not to participate in that one and open this one instead to share your all-important viewpoint? ---

I really don’t get why anyone cares. She’s running for VICE PRESIDENT, for hell’s sake! Her job will be to sit there and keep an eye on the Naval Observatory. Unless anyone truly believes that she’ll be pulling evil strings from behind the throne in a Cheney-esque fashion, I truly cannot comprehend why anyone would give her more than a passing glance. ---

Because in the event of McCain’s death, she’ll be President? ---

Is this like that “Beetlejouice, Beetlejuice, Beetlejuice!” think where, if you say his name three times fast, he shows up? 'Cause it doesn’t seem to be working. Maybe you have to be in your bathroom late at night with the lights out, or something. ---

My boyfriend wants to talk about Palin. So does my best friend. So does half the Dope. I’m just getting tired of all the political talk. It’s been going on for months now, and we have a few months more before it’s all done, and I’m exhausted. I just need something else to talk about for a while. I know who I’m voting for, can we have the elections already? I’ve stopped reading all political threads, but the non-political threads do make for slim pickings right now. ---
