Please do not refer to Palin as Lady Blah Blah. It's usage immediately evokes the name of LBGTQ
advocate Lady Gaga. Lady Gaga does not deserve the association with a despicable hate monger.

1. That's who I thought was being talked about when I read the title of the other thread.

2. I agree
I'm not a fan of Lady Gaga's music/shows but I admire her for her activist work. I respect her and cannot say the same for that piece of trash Palin.

4. I admire her activist work, as well. And it does a disservice to that activism
to associate her with a well-known bigot.

3. I don't like "Caribou Barbie" either.
A caribou is a graceful and peaceful animal that does not deserve to be associated with a despicable person like Palin.

And Barbie is an innocent children's toy that should not be besmirched by association with an insane rabid right-winger.

9. But Barbie was based on a German comic strip about a hooker.

12. Well... I don't know about "innocent" Barbie...
My Barbie was always finding herself getting knocked up by Ken on the dining room table of the Barbie Townhouse (with elevator!)

14. I am absolutely serious. The term Lady Blah Blah evokes Lady Gaga... a person
who does not deserve the connection to Palin in no way shape or form.

13. I have always felt that the attaching of "names" to politicians we detest (with the
possible exception of our former pResident) to be ridiculous. I promise I won't use it. :hi:

15. I don't think Lady Gaga needs your help. If she's become such a household name, like Kleenex
that people start playing off the name, and immediately get the joke, she's doing something right in a business where up to the minute visibility isn't the biggest thing, it's the only thing.

Lady Gaga will be fine, who knows- maybe she'd even appreciate the joke.

16. I thought it was a clever name for Bailin Palin
but certainly if is objectionable I won't use it, you have a point.

19. I personally think it's an apt-description of her
Palin sounds to me like the "adults" in the Peanuts cartoons. She is, to me, the "anti-Lady Gaga".

But I'll refrain from personally referring to her as such.
