SamLo Says No to Palin

Lindsay and Samantha may not have openly come out as a couple yet, but they’re already issuing joint press releases, using the PR rep of choice among young Hollywood’s elite: MySpace blogs.

They’ve taken time out of their busy schedules to remind people that you don’t have to have, ya know, a Princeton education to realize that Sarah Palin’s an idiot. Tutoring on the set of Disney films is really all it takes.

UH OH!
Current mood: shocked

I really cannot bite my tongue anymore when it comes to Sarah Palin.

I couldn’t be more supportive of a woman in office, but let’s face it, it comes down to the person, and their beliefs, male or female.

Is it a sin to be gay? Should it be a sin to be straight? Or to use birth control? Or to have sex before marriage? Or even to have a child out of wedlock?

I find it quite interesting that a woman who now is running to be second in command of the United States, only 4 years ago had aspirations to be a television anchor. Which is probably all she is qualified to be… Also interesting that she got her passport in 2006.. And that she is not fond of environmental protection considering she’s FOR drilling for oil in some of our protected land…. Well hey, if she wants to drill for oil, she should DO IT IN HER OWN backyard. This really shows me her complete lack of real preparation to become the second most powerful person in this country.

Hmmmm-All of this gets me going-Fear, Anxiety, Concern, Disappointment, and Stress come into play…

Is our country so divided that the Republicans best hope is a narrow minded, media obsessed homophobe?

I know that the most important thing about this election is that people need to exercise their right to vote, regardless of their choice… I would have liked to have remained impartial, however I am afraid that the “lipstick on a pig” comments will overshadow the issues and the fact that I believe Barack Obama is the best choice, in this election, for president…

Palin’s Desire to “save and convert the gays”-really??

According to this Associated Press story, the church of Alaska Governor Sarah Palin is hosting a kind of conference devoted to the “conversion of Gays” — no kidding.

Here’s the AP text:

ANCHORAGE, Alaska (AP) ? Gov. Sarah Palin’s church is promoting a conference that promises to convert gays into heterosexuals through the power of prayer.

You’ll be encouraged by the power of God’s love and His desire to transform the lives of those impacted by homosexuality,” according to the insert in the bulletin of the Wasilla Bible Church, where Palin has prayed since she was a child.

Palin’s conservative Christian views have energized that part of the GOP electorate, which was lukewarm to John McCain’s candidacy before he named her as his vice presidential choice. She is staunchly anti-abortion, opposing exceptions for rape and incest, and opposes gay marriage and spousal rights for gay couples.

I feel it’s necessary for me to clarify that I am not against Sarah Palin as a mother or woman.

Women have come a long way in the fight to have the choice over what we do with our bodies… And its frightening to see that a woman in 2008 would negate all of that.

Oh, and…Hint Hint Pali Pal- Don’t pose for anymore tabloid covers, you’re not a celebrity, you’re running for office to represent our, your, my COUNTRY!

And in the words of Pamela Anderson, “She can suck it”..

Lindsay- “I have faith that this country will be all that it can be with the proper guidance. I really hope that all of you make your decisions based on the facts and what feels right to you in your heart-vote for obama!”

Samantha- “I love this country- however i wasn’t born here and don’t have the right to vote- so i beg of you all to really do your research and be educated when you cast your vote this coming november…. and if you’re in doubt- vote for obama! Mainly because if she gets elected my green card probably won’t get renewed!!!”

Heh. I totally didn’t know she got her passport in 2006. OMG. This is a woman who could one day run our country, guys. A woman who had so little interest in foreign affairs that, up until the point that she decided to run for governor of an entire state, she didn’t even feel it necessary to procure a passport. Like, guys, I know it’s exciting to fantasize about introducing this small-town girl with small-town thoughts to the broader world of, like, caviar and anal beads, but did you notice we’re at war and she’s running for Vice President? Mind-blowing.

  • “Beet” you don’t speak for women, and LEZLO certainly doesn’t either!! What kind of a woman speaks like you? So vulgar and unclassy. You, my friend, are the type of woman this country doesn’t need. Lindsay Lohan is a piece of filthy trash with no talent and a bad attitude. Hey LI LI babi, please don’t pose more anymore magazine covers, you are a drug addict NOT a celebrity. K?

  • Uh oh. Sam and Lindsay, don’t you know that Palin is reputed to be a vengeful woman with a long memory?!? If the McCain ticket wins you girls better head for the hills…(I’ll join you there.)

  • I wonder why people like from “Shut Up” even read your blog. I think you speak more for woman that fucking Palin will ever even know how. So don’t listen to stupid people like that girl up above, she can go to hell.

  • I’m gonna have to say that as a woman herself, beet kinda does have a say in if she wants to be forced to pop out a child with no birthcontrol every few years at most til she dies an early death.

    SHUT UP, my dear, have you ever HEARD Palin speak? its a wee bit vicious and vulger and id say having 9 statements that 7 of have been proven to be complete lies makes you unclassy.

  • Hey SHUT UP you should take your own advice before you open your ignorant, mindless trap again. Or is it classy now to call a woman a filthy piece of trash? …….yeaaah.

  • It’s easier for me to imagine sarah palin as VP, than it is for me to imagine Lohan capable of ACTUALLY WRITING that piece herself. That girl is barely incapable of forming complete sentences in public…there is no way she authored that.

  • She may or may not be articulate enough to have authored that piece, but I’m sure she knew what she was saying when she agreed with it.

  • Whew! I was waiting for these two MENSA members to give their Vice Presidential endorsement; now who can they favor for President. hmmmm.

  • As a person who is not from your country (America) I really don’t understand why it seems as if when anyone has something to say and people don’t agree with it, they start ATTACKING that person.

    SHUT UP is a perfect example of why your country is falling by the wayside. I mean, it is extremely ignorant to say that Beet doesn’t speak for women when in fact, she is a woman. Who lives in your country. If she can’t speak for women who can?? the men??

    As an outsider looking in I feel it is necessary for you all to just calm down. The way that you vote doesn’t have to affect the way that you treat other people. Who cares if someone wants to vote for McCain, and another wants to vote for Obama. Everyone is still equal. Its funny how every morning you stand up and say the pledge of alliegance, stating that everyone is equal when you don’t practice that in your daily lives?

    I am extremely over generalizing here, and I appreciate that, but its just so common for all these nasty hurtful comments because someone doesn’t agree with the other person.

    It looks like the US is heading for more of a Nazi mentality. (the only people who are ‘clean and pure’ are worthy of being ‘American’ and everyone else needs to … for a better word SHUT UP)

    These are my opinions. And you can challenge my opinions wholeheartedly if you disagree, but do not attack me personally, because as HUMANS we deserve the RIGHT to express what we feel without persecution.

  • First off I am not a Sarah Palin supporter but “4” years ago she had forgotten her news anchor aspirations and become involved in politics although it was pretty minor league.

    Second if Sam became a citizen of the country she lives in and says she “loves” she too could vote. Get your citizenship, Sam, its not that hard and the US does allow dual citizenship in most cases.

    This election is quite entertaining. Can’t wait for the debates!

  • I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again.. let McCain do the presidential job and let Palin do the vice-presidential job which is really glad-handing other heads of state. This dumbass dyke (Samantha Ronson) wants us to vote for Obama if we’re uncertain otherwise her green card won’t get renewed??? This is america bitch, we have a choice in who we want to lead us not like England where you’re forced to worship some horse faced royalty just because they’re there. I hope your green card DOES get revoked and you’re forced to stay the fuck out and take Lindsay Lohan with you.

  • Um, “me,” do you realize how old McCain is? If he is elected, it is very possible that Sarah Palin could end up as president. Scary.

    And another thing, you’re completely ignorant about British government. STFU.

  • Nadine, a lot of what you say is sad, but true. There are more emotions in this election than I remember from any since I have been following politics. There is definitely fear amongst the American people because our economy is faltering and we are starting to finally realize that we have to trust our leaders to save us.

    I am trying to tell myself that voting simply boils down to basic beliefs. I personally believe simply that women should have the right to choose in the case of rape or incest, that homosexuals should have the same rights as heterosexuals, that the government should provide some sort of healthcare to its taxpayers. As such, I will vote for Obama. It’s nothing personal against Sarah Palin (who I like as a woman but still think is grossly unqualified for the job).

    Honestly, I think whoever wins is screwed because we are on a tight downward spiral from which neither candidate will be able to instantly recover. Both candidates are fudging details, both candidates have weaknesses. If we can just look at our personal beliefs on the issues and accept that others may not feel the same, the personal attacks could cease.

  • Thank God that Sam the Man is here in the USA to script Lindsay’s political views.
    What a country!
    At least Samantha does state that as a foreigner, she’s ineligible to vote. Maybe some day she’ll go back to her own country, straighten out good old England and stop being a parasite here.

  • I was born in a different country and while I don’t stand for McCain or Palin, I am not fearful that my greencard won’t get renewed if they are sworn in! That is just silly talk from Sam.
    And I really don’t see the big deal with her not having a passport. She was running her state. Yes, she prob could have done/learned more/different things with a passport, but I feel that the media is making too much of a big deal with that. just like they have done with every other little thing that really doesn’t matter much, instead of focusing on what really matters.

  • I am a white, single mom age 37,and I will be voting for Obama. These are scary times,our economy is crumbling, the unemployment rate is higher than it’s been in decades, teenage soldiers are dying in a war that has been going on far to long. I implore everyone, do your homework here. If the fate of our amazing country is not worth time for little research I don’t know what is. Sarah Palin is resposible for several untruths, misleading comments and some pretty audacious insults the past 2 weeks. I have 2 daughters. I want their reproductive rights to be theirs and theirs alone. Sarah Palin believes in abstinence only in schools again abolishing my daughters right to learn about alernatives in PUBLIC schools.The mere thought of teaching creationism with evolution goes against the very soul and founation of the U.S.A. (That’s the seperation of church and state for any of you republicans who may have forgotten.) These are just some of what should be concerning us about a woman, hockey mom, governor and LIAR, who could end up using her shiney new passport to run our great country. I would pray that people still love this country enough to get the FACTS and think with broad and open mind and for nothing else .

  • I have actually warmed to Samantha Ronson, she is cool and seems to make Lindsay happy. I don’t get how she is a parasite, she works so will also pay taxes. Besides, USA is based on immigration and the economy depends on it.

  • Geez, since Lindsey Lohan says so, it must be gospel. I’m gonna do what Lindsey and Sam tell me to do! Yay! Baaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhh

  • @ mal.. John McCain is 72. So you’re saying that it is “very possible” that he won’t live to 76? If so, then you are an idiot and don’t deserve to grace these wonderful United States with your presence. And it’s just my layman’s knowledge that the british don’t actually elect their royal family. Am I correct? I know there is a parlament and it has a leader but I was talking about the monarchy you stupid fuck. Furthermore, if Sam Ronson wants us to vote for Obama as the leader of our nation, if for no other reason than to assure her green card and you support that notion, you, my friend, are an idiot.

  • OMG-this is america..ALL americans can speak their minds regardless of creed color or backround…last time i checked lindsay IS an american. havent we all heard that young people need to get out there and vote…i sure have…here is a young woman with passion& interest in this election ..so whats the problem?
    some disagree …well you ve had your say let lindsay & samantha have their’s…samantha already said she cant vote so again i say what s the problem.
    as for the name calling…obviously some must forget…our president and other political leaders had/have that SAME problems…you wouldnt disrespect them in the same manner…or would you? & “no class”??? REALLY?
    obviously they ve hit a nerve..& ..good..its time all the religious crack-pots got back into their respective places of worship & OUT of our government.
    GO LINDSAY *hearts*

  • me: “John McCain is 72. So you’re saying that it is “very possible” that he won’t live to 76? If so, then you are an idiot and don’t deserve to grace these wonderful United States with your presence.”

    “…but I was talking about the monarchy you stupid fuck.”

    “…if Sam Ronson wants us to vote for Obama as the leader of our nation, if for no other reason than to assure her green card and you support that notion, you, my friend, are an idiot.”

    Um, I think you need to calm down a little. Or continue on in that vein, in which case maybe you’d feel more at home on the Youtube comment boards.

  • I have a hard time trusting the sources that Lindsay comes up with. I would be shocked if what you have read has as much truth and accuracy as what Lindsay would lead you to believe. I also think that it is difficult to criticize Palin’s experience when truth be told Obama also lacks experience when he is the one running for President. I would never presume to tell people how to vote, but I would hope that most American’s would not vote based on research off of Lindsay Lohan’s blog. Come up with your own opinions and try to make it about the policies and less about what some 20 something ex-drug addict thinks is best for “her” country.

  • “Me” – you are correct that the British monarchy is not elected. But you seem to be assuming that they are responsible for the day-to-day running of the country, which simply isn’t the case. For that, we have ministers of parliament, who are elected and are far more equivalent to your senators than the Royal Family are.

  • when asked if she had visited foreign countries, she replied that she has been to canada and mexico; quite the world traveler.

  • Sorry to interrupt the intellectual conversation, but apparently I am totally out of it… where was Samantha born??

  • I just love how this blog is giving Sarah Palin credit for determining what a “sin” is…. It’s clearly printed in the bible what is a sin – and yes, homosexuality, sex before marriage and having children out of wedlock are all mentioned! The truth is – that we are all sinners. I just love it when people pick out their own sins and point the finger at a “christian” as attacking them personally. That’s not really how it works. True Christians use the bible to guide their own lives, according to God’s written word. I see so few christians (real or proclaimed) attacking anyone – yet a lot of liberals are scared of us. They needn’t be.

  • I don’t think SamRo had anything to do with this at all! It was all ghosted for our young lovers by that damned HERBIE!!!

  • Here’s another thing that scares the crap out of me as a woman- While Sarah Palin was the Mayor of Wasilla, women were forced to pay for their rape kits in hospitals. It wasn’t until democratic lawmakers in Alaska created a bill that this nasty practice was stopped. So, let’s sum it up for women:
    John McCain doesn’t support equal pay for equal work, saying it would just be a burden on companies and the problem is that women need better education (because we are dumb whiners)
    Sarah Palin doesn’t support abortion even in cases of rape and incest. So if a 12 year old girl were raped by her uncle, Sarah Palin would make her carryout the pregnancy.
    Sarah Palin believes a woman should pay for her own rape kit after she’s been brutalized
    John McCain voted against a bill that would require health insurance companies to cover birth control if they covered a certain men’s sexual health pill that I apparently cannot say the name of on this website (hint it starts with a “V”).

    And I think they are setting the women’s movement back years by all this faux sexism stuff. Beet, you said it very well in another post. Expectations are lower for Sarah because she’s a woman. If you grill her on her experience, you’re a sexist. If you ask her to explain a lie, you’re a sexist. If you mock her on SNL, you’re a sexist (you hear that, Tina Fey?) Like we shouldn’t be held to the same standards as men? Yikes.

    And Texas Gal, while I’m not a practicing Christian, I have some FANTASTIC Christian friends, some of whome are-gasp- gay! They believe in helping, loving, and accepting people just like Jesus did. Liberals aren’t afraid of Christians, we are afraid of extremists. And like our founding fathers, many of us don’t believe a democracy can work without the strong separation of church and state.

  • @ Becci: mind your business
    @ NowNowChildren: a typo doesn’t mean one is stupid (nownowchildren would be three seperate words, not one, you stupid [insert your choice of explicit noun].)
    @ Grace: Please re-read what I posted. I acknowledged that the Monarchy doesn’t rule over the people. And as a matter of fact, the people don’t elect the prime minister either. The majority party of the parliament does. SO READ UP YOU STUPID BITCH!!!
    @ Beet: love the hell out of you

  • Such hostility on the Beet comments. But I do find it kind of hard to take political ” advice ” from Lindsay Lohan. Samantha, well I don’t know. But someone who has their cooter posted all over Beet’s website doesn’t really deserve to be taken seriously in any means in my opinion.

    While they are entitled to their opinion, so is everyone else, and that was mine.

  • I think the McCain-Palin ticket will seal it’s own fate here. I am so pleased that the media have been calling them out and pointig out inconsistancies in their words and proclamations.It’s concerning that so many people seemed disracted by her celebrity/womanhood,or whatever you’d call it. I am a woman but I don’t use it as an excuse to be treated any differently than anyone else. I expect to get equal pay as a man would for doing the same job, I also expect to be held accountable for my words and actions in the same light. If anyone out there could come up with another way of candy-coating her lack of experience and integrity I’d be well…not shocked at all. This is ridiculous, not to mention upsetting. Just yesterday John McCain said the fundamentals of our economy were strong…today diferent words. Was he somewhere else all together yesterday?? WOW. Thanks for the info on the rape kits Dinosaurs I am always happy to learn more, and mentioning the church and state thing again. We will always be a country made up of diversity that’s what makes us ,…U.S. so lets elect people thrilled to accept and nurture that not alter and “change” that.

  • and as I am watching the view right now I must say that I find Elisabeth Hasselbeck to be one of the most closed minded judgemental ignorant people I have ever come across in my life. She makes me want to scream.

  • Thanks Dinosaurs, nice to know of other well informed voters regardless of sex, religion or race. We can all connect on Nov.4th, for eachother and our future, my children, yours, theirs,everyone. I am an Obama mama!

  • I am not against her as a mother or a woman either seeing as we have 5 children. Mine ae undr the age of 7 and they are boys that are smart and hansome. BUT all that aside, I feel faint she is running. I even like her, but in a pta kind of way.

  • The symbol of the United States is the American Flag. Does Obama know this? Its pretty basic people, how can you trust a man that doesnt even respect America enough to say the Pledge of Allegience and salute the symbol of the USA, the American Flag? He voted NO to a bill that would make desecration of the American Flag illegall! Whats bad is that he misses almost half of the bills that he is supposed to vote on but voted no on that one! LOOK AT HIS VOTING RECORD PEOPLE. MOST OF WHAT HE SAYS HE VOTED OPPOSITE AND THE REST OF THE TIME DIDNT VOTE AT ALL! You think he will stand up for Americans when we need him but cant even get him to stand up and vote for what you ask him to half of the time? Maybe if we were all drunk drugged celebrities living in a fantasy world we wouldnt need to look at voting records. Here in the real world you have to actually WATCH WHAT PEOPLE DO NOT WHAT THEY SAY!!

  • One other thing, how can a man that has attended the same church for 20 years never hear or not agree with the views of the preacher? There are always other churches you can attend if you do not agree with what the preachers is saying but he stayed for twenty years. He listened to Wright preach of hate for 20 years, he called Wright his mentor, his sound board, and yet he somehow has completely different views? Here is just one paragraph of millions that you can find simply by googling OBamas preacher.
    “An Obama spokesman told the New York Times he is proud of his pastor and his church.The church also is the largest recipient of Obama’s charitable donations. The pastor married Obama and his wife Michelle and baptized his two daughters. Obama has shown continued allegiance to a man who preaches racial exclusiveness, the superiority of black values over white middle-class values, and whose teaching contains anti-Israel diatribes. All these are sharply at variance with what Obama himself preaches on the campaign trail.”
    I guess Wright only made those speeches on the select few dates that someone there recorded them?? Obama has since distanced himself.. again, took twenty years and alot of people raising hell before he would do it. Go ahead.. google it if you have the guts to admit that you have been fooled by a man that preaches of hope and peace in this country that he was not even raised in and his wife has just barely begun to be proud of.
