Hockey Mom does hockey things
And for those of you who can’t get enough of Sarah Palin, her next faceoff will come at center ice at an NHL arena, not at a debate. The GOP vice presidential nominee will drop the ceremonial first puck when the Philadelphia Flyers open the regular season against the New York Rangers on Saturday.
When asked how many hockey games she has seen, Palin said “All of ’em. Any of ’em that have been in front of me all these years.” Then she winked and disappeared.
I’ll love her more if she despises both those teams. (psst, I’m a Devils fan)
What sports does Obama like? Other then dressing like a dork then going for a ride on a bike? Can you imagine him throwing out the first pitch? The phrase “short hop” may be too generous. Notice how he has been pretty much kept away from most sporting events? I’ll give John Kerry this: he may have goofed up a few times, such as the famous Lambert Field, but, the guy did know and like sports. People made fun of him for windsurfing, but, good for him, going out there and doing it. Obama is the kid who couldn’t hit the ball off the tee, and it affected him all his life.
But, say, is this sexist?
As Ace points out, it would be easy to dismiss this upskirt shot with a kid looking on like he is at The Doll House, but, there are many more in the same series. Ace has a bunch from al-Reuters.
Oh, and hey, the upcoming Newsweek cover is the subject of intense debate at the LA Times. Entertainment writer Elizabeth Snead wonders if it is OK if Newsweek used a stock photo from 2002 on the cover of Palin holding a gun. Then she wonders
Hey, is that even the right way to hold a rifle? Can’t you shoot your foot off like that?
As Newsbusters points out
What we have here is another denizen of Hollywood that knows zip about firearms. Palin is not holding a rifle. And even if it were a breachloading rifle, with the breach cracked open, draped over a shoulder, one cannot shoot one’s foot off regardless. A breach must be closed before any foot shooting can be in the offing.
$100 says it would be possible if a liberal was holding it. Especially Biden. Obama would run to the shower if he so much as touched it, like a sissy boy who touched a bug.
Let us hope Vice President Palin drops the puck next June for the opening game of the Stanley Cup series between the Pens and whichever team comes out of the West. :)

He likes basketball. Does that count?

How about sinking a 3-pointer on the first try?

Yea, I was going to point out that he’s an excellent basketball player. We all can’t do everything well.
I cracked up when I saw that picture and Lizzie’s “she’s holding a rifle”. Uh, duh; it’s a shotgun. My 12 year old knows that. I have a long story about firearms. I hope everyone against them can learn what I did about them.
Ahem. Devils, Bob :D
Bball with your shirt tucked in does not count. :)
Whose his favorite team? Can he throw a baseball? Football?
I personally do not know all that much about guns, but, I knew enough to know it was a shotgun of some type. And, if Barry wins, I will be buying the same type of pistol you have. If you still have the Walther P99. All the hotties use it. You. Kate Beckinsale in Underworld.
