Sunday, July 24th, 2011The Sarah Palin documentary “The Undefeated” plunged 63 percent in its second weekend and I assume it will be expanding to few more markets, if any. It can now be officially labeled a flop.
I wanted this film to be good. It was not. It goes into the Hall of Ignominy on Rotten Tomatoes, joining the [...]
“New York Conservative” Defamed!
Wednesday, June 8th, 2011My harsh critique of the Sarah Palin documentary “The Undefeated” was picked up by liberal sites like Gawker, Andrew Sullivan’s blog and Dave Weigel of Slate, who strikes me as kinda sorta a liberal or at least not a real conservative. (Weigel is a great guy, by the way, with immense knowledge of DC procedure.) [...]
Sarah Palin Comeback!
Friday, November 13th, 2009Don’t laugh, says Matthew Continetti: It could happen. I don’t think voters will forgive her for walking away from Alaska. Continetti’s perfectly-timed book on Palin comes out next week. I plan to read Palin’s book and write a review as soon as I can.
Is Olive Garden Backing Away from Letterman?
Thursday, June 18th, 2009Olive Garden kinda sorta denies they’re pulling ads from David Letterman because of the Sarah Palin controversy. But won’t say whether, in fact, we will be seeing Olive Garden spots on Letterman. And the original Politico story looks pretty solid. Question: Will Letterman, that scourge of the mighty, tribune of the truth, use this opportunity [...]
Sarah Palin as Oprah?
Friday, October 24th, 2008“How to shoot a moose between the antlers–PLUS! cooking with whale blubber! Next ‘Sarah!’” Is Sarah Palin the next media superstar, or will she stay in government? The Hollywood Reporter mulls her options.
“SNL” Wastes Sarah Palin
Sunday, October 19th, 2008Sarah Palin, who got big laughs during her RNC speech, wasn’t funny on “Saturday Night Live.” Why? Because they didn’t give her anything funny to do. They made her stand there like a rhododendron while Alec Baldwin squinted at the cue cards. Baldwin is normally funny on the show. And he can, presumably, memorize a [...]
Sarah Palin’s SAT Document and Transcript: Fake
Friday, October 10th, 2008So says an expert about that suspicious-looking transcript floating around the Internets.
Sarah Palin Invited to Join Pussycat Dolls
Friday, October 10th, 2008If this whole veep thing doesn’t work out, she’ll be fine. (H/t: Conservative Grapevine.) Elsewhere, a blogger points out that news photographers love to take pictures of Palin rallies from behind the candidate’s legs. Were a liberal woman treated this way, it would of course be denounced as reductionist and sexist to define a candidate [...]
Clint Eastwood Disparages Dirty Harry Fans
Sunday, October 5th, 2008Clint Eastwood came into town last week for a press conference to introduce his new Angelina Jolie-starring period drama “Changeling”–during which he described himself as “a libertarian” and said essentially that he was disgusted with both political parties. Interesting. More on that later.
SP Is for Sexy Puritan, Sarah Palin
Friday, October 3rd, 2008I just noticed Bay State novelist Tom Perrotta (”Election,” “Little Children,” and see my review of “The Abstinence Teacher“) has an essay up on today’s sexiest Puritan: Sarah Palin. Love the bit about “Christian nymphos.”
