Janine Turner ‘cried when she heard’ Sarah Palin announced. But thanks to Restasis Eye Drops, she was able to actually shed tears when listening to ‘Fox XM’. (Who shasn’t?) But Turner better keep those drops handy. Because, although Palin was first showcased as a Nordic Helen of Troy, she’s long since proven to be McCain’s Trojan (props to Planned Parenthood) Moose.

McCain’s Trojan Moose never tried to blow up the US Congress, never God d***** America nor was convicted of fraud and money laundering as Obama’s mentors have been. It is alarming that Palin is being attacked by the press for nothing when up to now, Obama has been given a free ride despite his past and current associations. I will give Obama two things though, he does know how to think quick and he does know health care as demonstrated on this youtube.com/watch?v=x-_cYjKD8TI

In the photo above, which one is Janine Turner?
@ 11:19 am on October 11, 2008
Got to love these “high moral” types like Janine… By the way who’s the father of her child???
@ 11:47 am on October 11, 2008
Well, we know who “grandpa” is!
@ 11:51 am on October 11, 2008
I love those liberal types who are supposed to be the “tolerant” and the “nuanced” among us but only bring up personal attacks on people who do not share their belief system.
@ 12:13 pm on October 11, 2008
I’m right there with you JB!
“Do as I say not as I do”
That’s why I’m a proud card-carrying Feudalist

What, the GOP didn’t die a little bit more today, Wick? It’s actually alive and well somewhere? Janine, you smart, talented, beautiful Dallasite woman, thank you for taking pride in the glass ceiling that Sarah America has shattered. Every American should be proud, except for the Barack-star Marxists who socialize with their friendly neighborhood bombers.

Mushmouth,
You attack someone’s views and personal failures trying to find “justice” in your own by the fact she had an out of wedlock baby?
Good show!
I am not religious but I do not pretend to be superior. People can believe what ever they want. I personally would never hang someone’s religion around their head. If they find personal strength in it why should we impugn them? Even if they differ in opinion.
I have a feeling this discussion is going to turn into a religious shooting so I am opting out at this point.

Dubious Brother you need to calm down. Seriously. You’re scaring the blogosphere.
@ 1:13 pm on October 11, 2008
KRM, are you serious? LOL. You are quite the kidder. LOL.
@ 1:18 pm on October 11, 2008
I cried when I heard Sarah Palin was nominated also — but for different reasons.
@ 1:26 pm on October 11, 2008
Sorry Tx. Rep.,
That’s just what Dubious Brothers do.
@ 3:14 pm on October 11, 2008
I don’t understand why conservative Hollywood elites should project their views to Middle America.
@ 3:37 pm on October 11, 2008
Hmmmm.
“Yes, Governor Palin brings back many Northern Exposure memories.”
Did someone forget to mention to Ms. Turner that the series was taped in Roslyn, WA?
“I am supporting and applauding [Palin's] character, moral fiber, intellect, feistiness, and spunk. She is the essence of the independent spirit of America — the pioneer spirit — the type of spirit that made and makes America great.”
I wonder when Ms. Turner became delusional.
@ 5:04 pm on October 11, 2008
Hah … D’s content filter censored a word that National Review and Janine Turner find descriptive.
@ 5:07 pm on October 11, 2008
Uhh, Freud, Janine was in Northern Exposure, I think she knows where it was shot. The link below of the great TV spokesperson, Obamessiah, is so good it deserves a repost:
Ms. Turner forgot to mention “abuser of power” in her descriptives of the northern lightweight Palin.
@ 3:28 pm on October 12, 2008
Come on, JB. Like the GOP doesn’t use personal attacks on people who don’t share their belief system. Double standard, perhaps? Puhleeze.
@ 8:43 am on October 13, 2008
what is wrong with all the smart women and where did they go. sarah is a joke and the only position she should have to chosen for is as a replacement for Holly when she leaves the show, The girls next door. LThe choice to make her his vp shows just what John McCain thinks of women.He could not deal with a smart woman so he picked her. Oh by the way I am a Republican so don’t try that old bull on me that you use on the other parties. the whole world is laughing at us because of bush and his old men (greedy old men) and then john had to go and get this mess to go on the world scene with her comments I will not call them thoughts because she does not think she repeats go away sarah go away.
@ 9:24 am on October 13, 2008
It’s quite simple — critics of the Republican Party do not impugn Republicans for gay cruising, out-of-wedlock children, etc. We impugn them for their rank hypocrisy in waving the banner of Family Values.
Ailing? They don’t need a doctor, they need a priest.
@ 10:23 am on October 13, 2008
They they they they they. So much for progress.
@ 11:45 am on October 13, 2008
Responding to the comments and general social attitude I see lately, not the story.
@ 11:45 am on October 13, 2008
Evelyn, that is the smartest pro-Obama endorsement that I have heard this year.
I’m a liberal Democrat but I think Ms. Turner has the right to support anyone she chooses. Why all the anger ??? Sarah Palin isn’t my choice but somebody must like her she did get elected Gov of Alaska.
@ 10:25 am on October 26, 2008
I saw Janine Turner on Larry King. I didn’t know she was dumb. I see why she likes Sara Palin.
@ 1:42 pm on October 29, 2008
FrontBurner® launched in March 2003, the first blog in Dallas run by a media organization. This is where the editors of D Magazine come to waste a tremendous amount of time.
