Hockey Moms for Truth: "She betrayed us in the past. How can we trust her now?"

Ah, the politics of resentment. But it is a funny ad.

Here are two ideas for new ads: I'd like to see one about Sarah Palin's lie that the teleprompter broke down when she was giving her speech at the RNC. Trouble is, the teleprompter screen was in full view of the press. It operated perfectly. So why the lie?

And then there's this:
Sex, Lies, and Trooper-Gate

Sarah Palin is having trouble keeping her stories straight about why she fired her public safety director in Trooper-Gate.

At one point, she went so far as to say she hadn't fired him at all: he'd quit. But now, with help from the McCain campaign, she's come up with a new justification for what is again being called a firing: insubordination.

And what, you ask, did he do that was supposedly insubordinate? He was too aggressive in trying to go after sex offenders, specifically child molesters. Seriously.

Have you noticed our sports distinctions are soccer-moms and hockey-moms. These are the two least attended sports that have the lowest number of adult devotees - thought the fans they have are passionate. Also they tend to be geographically diverse - to the north and to the south. Just a curiosity that has itched enough to need scratching.

I am astounded that the politcal handlers have not started a NFL fans for *** or NBA fans for ###. In that it is NFL and MLB seasons it would seem likely. The NBA is out of synch. And what are we to do with NASCAR, about as un-green a sport as ever devised? This would all make the Bud-Bowl (Tastes great / Less Filling) look a lot more interesting.
