ALL OF THEM: Market & Van Ness
When asked what newspapers and magazines she reads, Sarah Palin replied, "all of them." All of them! And so, a meme is born. -- mattymatt, "Sarah Palin Engages in Perverse Journalistic Orgy of Excess"
How could we forget such a violently vapid comment?
We can't. We shan't. So let's go.
Between here and Election Day, let's help Sarah and all the rest of us remember precisely what All Of Them means.
Want to help? Please do! Take a picture of a magazine stand or newspaper rack in the Bay Area (or anywhere, really) -- anything that would help hold/illustrate All Of Them. Note the location, send it in to allofthemsf@gmail.com, and we'll do the rest. For great justice.
We begin our musical journey at a main joist of San Francisco, at Market and Van Ness, and we'll post 'em every couple days until Election Day. Can we do this? Yes we can! For sake of All Of Them.
Thank you in advance.

So, uh, SFist endorses Obama?
my Bowling Alley/Sonic Drive-In complex at Masonic and Geary shall also have a newsstand named "All of Them"
one could endorse McCain and still see Sarah Palin as dangerously unqualified. Judging by the poll numbers, many millions of Americans are doing just that.
but probably the entire ist network including Anchoragist endorses the candidate that can speak the language.
What's vapid is a thread about a bland offhand comment. Biden was quoted saying that when the market crashed in '29, FDR went on TV right away and reassured the country. He got a little grief for it (Hoover was president and there was no TV outside of laboratories), then it was forgotten. But "All of them!" is supposed to live forever? Lame. SFist can do better.
That was not an offhand comment. She was pressed, three times, by Couric to name *any* magazine or publication that she read to keep up on foreign affairs. She couldn't think of one. She was pushed into a corner and failed to come up with a response. Then she tried to turn the question around on Couric as though the CBS anchor had insinuated that because she lives in Alaska she can't be up on foreign affairs. This woman is a joke of the highest order.
Good one pork bun (but you left out dave and buster's.
I prefer this footage of the same interview:

@ OrangeDrink: Seriously? The city's only liberally Democrat.
Thank you, Brittney.
Oh, and as usual Brock, your tags are hilarous!
They're also hilarious. Damn.
I think the real issue is trying to manufacture a meme. its rather like a madison ave ad firm trying to create a viral campaign through the youtube and teh internets so the kids will text about it.
what would noam chomsky do?
The idea for this is funny. The tag "market street smells like pee sometimes?"
FRAKKING HILARIOUS!

Ooh, I'd go!
@periqueblend

Noam Chomsky would write a book about it.
(Not-really-related: I wonder if he and Howard Zinn have ever crossed paths? They must have... what would that conversation be like?)

Ayup. That Mkt St scent... So say we all.
I figure that the city that's #1 should smell like #1
