"Palin" means "backward" in greek.
How unfortunate.

I still carry the original Thinkpad (the little notebook). Had it 45 years.

Actually, it's better translated as "again". But I'm sure something as
simple as a fact will keep liberals from quoting it as you have.

If politics as usual is considered "forward", then we can use a little
Palin.

"The Greek word for "again" or "backward" is palin."
http://www.drbilllong.com/GrLaRoots/lysis.html
The Obamanites should not take much comfort from this. "Obama"
derives from the Kenyan dialect verb meaning, "slightly bent", or,
"twisted".

No, "Palindrone" is truer to the experience given her one speech "I
was for the bridge to nowhere before John McCain Congress said No,
thanks."

Interesting. How about a citation/reference (seriously).
For my part, I concluded that "McCain's VPPick was beyond the palin."
And that this phrase may well be adopted into our lexicon as Sarah
replaces the old English fencepost.

Dang, coffee right out the nose.
BTW: is there an abbreviation for that like ROTFLMAO maybe like LSHCOUTN
(Laughing so hard, coffee out the nose?)
Anyone?

Palindrone????
Is this another obscure reference to Micheal Palin could possibly be a
relative of Gov Palin and the aging Monty Python actors are pulling a
farewell HOAX on the Entire Western World with this election? Both
parties!!!

"Obama" means "bum" in Swahili, as in "Wipe your bum, Obongo".
