From my days with the Student's Companion in the motherland, I remember vaguely the more common definitions of rogue but since I've been sitting 27 floors up in thin air for a bit, I had to go back and look it up.
Rogue \Rogue\,
1. (Eng.Law) A vagrant; an idle, sturdy beggar; a vagabond; a
tramp.
[1913 Webster]
Note: The phrase rogues and vagabonds is applied to a large
class of wandering, disorderly, or dissolute persons.
They were formerly punished by being whipped and having
the gristle of the right ear bored with a hot iron.
[1913 Webster]
2. A deliberately dishonest person; a knave; a cheat.
[1913 Webster] #sarahpalin
This is the apex of the movement by Christianists in this country to unseat local school boards and replace them with Taliban-esque fundamentalists eager to replace science with superstition, sex education with religion, history with jingoism and holistic approaches to literacy with phucking phonics. She represents everything that is wrong with exurban America, trading on her brittle good looks to railroad anyone who stands in her way. Yes, she is a pitbull. And she wants to eat your children.
@Mediahohoho: We can only hope she grows an enormous ass while sitting, counting the millions she made from this moose tripe, gobbledy-gook book of hers. My sincere hope is that the people who were, erm, "misquoted" in her book file a joint legal action and block her from ever publishing again.
@sanyucat: Palin's only cache at this point is the aging beauty queen with a pack of kids. If she loses her morning talk show host veneer, I see her fading into the wallpaper. She's proven again and again that she cannot articulate any sort of coherent thought. I'll admit though that I want to just once see her "going rogue" on a group of producers trying to cobble together a show with her as host.
@Mediahohoho: You've hit the nail on the head. It's all very well to laugh at SP and the fools she "pals around with". Enjoy the funny; God knows they bring enough of it. But pay close attention and watch when they get down to business. The less amusing and much less attractive disciples of this movement are grimly devoted to taking this country back to an imaginary "better time", with their pastors firmly in control of your lives. Vote in school board elections; attend city council meetings; God help me, read your local papers. If not, the infestation will take hold and we all lose. #sarahpalin
Well, on the plus side, I've always wanted to see Vancouver, and should Palin ride into the White House on the wings of angels and lies, I guess I'll be seeing it for the rest of my life. #sarahpalin
Every day I pray to the Great Clown Face in the sky that the world doesn't really have enough stupid people in it to let this woman within a mile of the White House. The longer she's in the public eye, the more I'm appalled she ever got as close as she did to such a high office. She's the epitome of everything that is WRONG with small-town America: narrow-minded provincialism; aggressive anti-intellectualism; charismatic, fundamentalist Christianity; cheesy choices in hairstyle and eyewear.
And I feel like the media is using the excuse that she's popular with a certain very narrow segment of viewers/readers to give her what is truly an undeserved amount of attention for a book that amounts to nothing but score-settling and blame shifting - all classic narcissistic, self-aggrandizing behaviors. Classic Sarah Palin. #sarahpalin
@RandomLunatic: Thank you for articulately describing why Sarah Palin is one of the few truly (and completely deserving) cringe-worthy people on this planet. #sarahpalin
As a sincere hater of condescending Jewdentity politics (boo, Sarah Silverman!), I don't really mind this. He's not recommending that proponents of health-care reform pander to The Joos by warning us that otherwise our shpilkes won't be covered or something. He's just reminding his friends that old Uncle Joe already panders to us, as annoying as that may be. Plus, we recognize that, in many people's minds, Lieberman is the most prominent representative of Jews in politics, so it would be nice if he weren't quite so damn embarrassing. #danbaum
This suggestion is a little late, but next time try the following:
"I'm the last guy in the world to try to organize people by their after-school cartoon affiliation, but we MGM fans may be the only people to whom Senator Droopy Dog might listen...." #danbaum
Also, neocon Jews have seriously hurt the Smart Liberal Jewish brand with their collective non-smartness and docuheyness. Of whom Lieberman is one. #danbaum
