Former First Lady Barbara Bush To Sarah Palin: Stay In Alaska

video

Former First Lady Barbara Bush is certainly not known for mincing words, though this may be one of the more subtle hints she’s thrown down in a while. Speaking alongside her husband, President George H. W. Bush, to Larry King in an exclusive interview, she delivered a doubled-edged critique of Sarah Palin– “She’s beautiful,” she tells King, but “she’s very happy in Alaska, and I hope she’ll stay there.”

‘World’s Worsts’ Goes Retro: Olbermann Gives Pres. Bush The Crown For WMD Claims

video

When Keith Olbermann promised to temporarily discontinue his "World's Worsts" segment, many of his biggest fans (and cable news die-hards in general) lamented the segment's passing. It wasn't the segment, it was the way he had made use of it lately, many contended, that caused it to lose its luster. Now that it's back in some form or another, Olbermann seems to have taken the advice to bring back old-school worsts to heart, giving the title to beloved target George W. Bush.

 

Vice President Joe Biden Thinks Sarah Palin’s Presidential Ambitions Are Just Hilarious

video

Vice President Joe Biden has built up a reputation as a relatively carefree spirit-- the kind of guy who only worries when absolutely necessary. And it's fair to say that in his duties as vice president, he has had little time to worry about Sarah Palin. So when the Morning Joe crew reminded him of what Palin was up to-- namely, asserting her belief that she could win the presidency away from President Obama-- all Vice President Biden could do was laugh.

Harper Collins Sues Gawker Over Sarah Palin Book Excerpts

Sarah Palin's new book, America By Heart, is set for release next Tuesday. Savvy internet readers, however, have already gotten a taste for what's in store thanks to Gawker, which scrounged up some leaked pages and posted them last Tuesday. While the excerpts didn't tell us anything we didn't know about Palin already-- she is proud of her family, supports the Tea Party-- the book's publisher, Harper Collins, is not happy and has sent their lawyers after Gawker for leaking the text.

 

Colbert Belatedly Gives NPR Staffer The Medal Of Fear She Rightfully Deserves

Stephen Colbert awarded NPR with a Medal of Fear at the Rally to Restore Sanity and/or Fear last month. Because nobody from that organization was ostensibly at the rally (though there were, in fact, NPR journalists covering the event on the ground), Colbert ended up giving the medal to a random seven-year-old girl. But now, after 20 medal-less days, a brave NPR staffer has finally obtained the award and brought it home to her company's headquarters in Washington, D.C.
