Palin would not answer reporters' questions "until the point in time when she'll be treated with respect and deference."

By Dick Cheney's standards she's certainly ready to be vice president, if now wring-wraith shadow president.

Obama really made a blunder. He doesn't realize the great love between red state residents and their pigs.

Selling the plane was a good thing. She deserves credit for it, regardless of whether the details of her explanation are a big foggy.

As for earmarks, maybe McCain can be her sponsor at Earmarks Anonymous. Remember, Sarah, the first step is admitting you have a problem.

Not much of an American market for asian 'pop' stars

There's a market for them. Just not as pop stars.

Judging from Boa's marketing plan, it sounds like she's looking to satisfy that market.

Thanks, Taka. Anyway, it'll probably be lost in the buzz here. I should note that I've linked to FactCheck.org articles debunking claims by both the Republicans and the Democrats. I invite anyone else who's sick of lies and distortions from either side to subscribe to their newsletter.

The last time I looked most whales don't like you touching them and will usually dive a couple of hundred feet underwater to get away from you.

Just so that people don't get confused she spells her name BoA while a couple of Rock Bands have been named BOA (or simlar spellings).

In media references they would all be "Boa" anyway, since news organizations are not in the busines of adapting bastardized styles of English.

McCain-Palin ad has FactCheck.org calling Obama's attacks on Palin "absolutely false" and "misleading." That's what we said, but it wasn't about Obama.

Our article criticized anonymous e-mail falsehoods and bogus claims about Palin posted around the Internet. We have no evidence that any of the…
