New Mayan Tablet Found: Prediction for 2012?

CHETUMAL, Quintana Roo, Mexico — Archeologists in Mexico have discovered an ancient Mayan tablet said to contain additional information prophesying events to take place in 2012.

The tablet, unearthed recently in the Mexican state of Quintana Roo, is said to contain pictograms of a shrieking shrew, a dog with large lips, a vertical cylinder with a tapered top, two concentric circles adjoined horizontally, and a never-before-seen highly stylized figure roughly resembling a hockey stick.

Adding to the tablet's mystery has been the unexplained deaths of every expert who examined and, presumably, successfully interpreted its meaning. All of the deaths, by spontaneous human combustion, are said to have occurred before the "secret" of the tablet was revealed, according to state officials, who agreed to comment anonymously because they were not authorized to speak.

"¡No sabemos qué coño está pasando!" an elderly Mayan woman told reporters. "¡Ahora ve tu trasero de mi patio y déjame en paz.!"

Which race exactly is "tighten[ing] even more?" the NY-23 race? 2012 presidential race? She makes George Bush (the latter) look like Winston Churchill.

Goldberg's book is
a delusional, twisted crazy hybrid of both 'old stuff' and 'new stuff'.
So that's what fuels Sister "Hoffman, baby, Hoffman" Sarah . hmmm.
One of my previously normal friends inhaled a bunch of Goldberg/Beck fumes this year and turned into a rabid reactionary.
On second thought
I doubt if Palin actually read it.
Someone probably recommended that she reference it, to bolster her 'heavy conservative thinker' credentials. Oh ya, and the readin' thing.
.
OK , I bet she did at least read the title of the book.
the title usually sums up the book anyway.
So why bother with the details?
That's it .....she read titles!
old stuff titles AND new stuff titles!

The election [in NY-23], she said, was a "conservative victory."

No doubt about it. The Republican who withdrew from the race was considered more conservative that most of the other Republicans in the state legislature. The far-right conservative then lost, and the Democrat won.

Let's have more, many more, such conservative victories.

funny how 'bank on it' doesn't inspire confidence anymore

Green Eggs and Ham?

"By resigning, she said she could 'throw off the shackles' groups were putting in place to restrain her ability," Erickson writes.

Excellent strategy. All conservative politicians should follow her lead and do the same thing.

Hey, Joe Lieberman - being a Senator only means having your ability restrained. Resign, and you shall be set free to soar! You have nothing to lose but your shackles!

it took over a year to adequately prep her for the question, "what do you read?" over a year. to teach her the answer to that question.

to think, she would have been a heartbeat away from staggeringly difficult questions like what to do in afghanistan/pakistan.

>shudder

"She likes "the modern stuff too.""

I always thought she might have been riffing off of Finnegan's Wake when she spoke! This explains everything!
