Celebrity BlackBerry Sightings Roundup!

Sarah Palin is a BlackBerry User

It's a week today that Sarah Palin was named as the Republican's candidate for Vice President, and I tell ya, it's made her the most "in demand" Celebrity with a BlackBerry these past seven days. I received over two dozen emails from people forwarding me articles (like this one) making mention of her BlackBerry use. The best picture I've seen to date is the one above, originally posted by CBS. I think for the most part pretty much every politician is a BlackBerry users addict.... so before election day rolls around we'll be sure to do up a Special Edition Politician Roundup (send in your pics to editorial @ crackberry.com).

More sightings after the jump, including Serena Williams and John Mayer....

Don't care too much about celebs and their crackerries but whatever floats your boat I guess.

Knowing Sarah Palin uses a BB makes me want to get rid of it.

Why do people not like Palin? What has she done thats so bad?

 
 
Posted by tnewton3 Friday, Sep 05, 2008 1356 days ago

People don't really know they just aren't republican so they so lame stuff like this.

 
 
Posted by reeneebob Friday, Sep 05, 2008 1356 days ago

as a woman I am sickened that she would be perfectly happy to take away the rights I have to my own body.

But, thanks for coming out.

 
 
Posted by chumpsucka Friday, Sep 05, 2008 1356 days ago

She's protecting the rights of the other body, not yours. You have the right to do whatever you want to your own body, she's not trying to remove that from you. How can you not see that? Maybe it's above your pay grade.

Please....nothing but interfering with a woman's right to choose.

Sarah Palin + Mc Cain = DISASTER

 
 
Posted by reeneebob Saturday, Sep 06, 2008 1356 days ago

but until it can survive on it's own outside my body, it's my choice.

And no one, not you, not anyone, can take that away.

That's why it's a right to CHOOSE. You choose to do what you want and I will stay out of your decision. All I ask is the same.

And since it's also, in a lot of cases, imposing your religious view on the other person at the same time, it's awfully self righteous.

Where are you right to lifers after the birth when the child is in foster care or in a poor home?

It has nothing to do with pay grade. It's my body. Stay out of it. I am sorry you are too narrowminded to realize that.

So you are saying its better to just kill them rather than give them a chance at life? Wow, I'm am almost disgusted enough to get rid of my berry because of YOU! See what you are forgetting is that you did make a choice, you dropped your pants! You made the choice and you should take responsibility for what you did, created a life. Be responsible and have the child and give them up for adoption to a family that can't have kids. It's like shooting someone then saying oops, I want to take that back! Sorry for the rant all, ignorance ticks me off.

If she was lil more concerned about the future of our nation she would just stand down. She is extremely under qualified to be VP of the United States of America. If McCains health decides to take a leap off a cliff (God forbid) lil Sarah Palin will wear her prom crown again. I think she needs to be realistic that McCain did a wrong choice... and do our nation a vital favor. I'm a woman and a proud republican... it has nothing t do with gender or political party... just the thruth!

I do not advocate abortion for birth control.

However, when I was pregnant last year, as I have downs in my family I had to have the screening, and even with fertility issues I would have aborted had the fetus tested positive.

And that's my choice.

I took birth control until I wanted my family, so you can back the hell off.

WELL SAID. Ignorance ticks me off as well.

 
 
Posted by dlgus Monday, Sep 08, 2008 1353 days ago

But how is this fodder for the forum? We all have our opinions, but this was a blog about celebrities and BBs.....and frankly, how anyone else feels about the right to life is their business, and I'd just as soon keep it that way.

We will all vote (I hope)our conscience this November....but since no one is going to change anyone's opinion on this or any other matter, why bother to argue about it?

I don't think Palin has any problem with you choosing to use contraceptive methods so as to eliminate the problem in the first place. If you choose not to do that and something happens, why should somebody else get screwed. I mean, honestly, how selfish is that? This isn't even a religious issue to me. I just look at how many important people in the last 100 years have been "accidents" that have gone on to do so much good in the world. If their parents had continued to be irresponsible after the initial slip up and gotten abortions, we would've lost so much as a society. So the way I see it, you get yourself into the situation and you follow through. If you don't want to get there, "choose" before you make an issue of it.

And for the record, defining life is an ambiguous issue in a legal sense. A mother can abort a fetus and it's not really considered taking a life while if some mugger punches you in the stomach on the street and kills a fetus and then it's murder. That's just a little strange and ambiguous to me. I realize that it's a slightly more complicated issue than that so don't go all postal on me, but again, these definitions of human life are far less religious then many pro-choicers make it out to be. There are plenty of us pro-lifers out there with opinions that are grounded in the world of science with proven facts and statistics to give us cause to believe the way we do.

Ultimately, I think most of us pro-lifers would prefer to stay out of your body, we just wish that you would share your own advice with guys first if you or he are unwilling to be responsible with your little endeavors.

I'm glad you weren't my mom,

E

Actually the only contraceptive methods Sarah Palin approves of (judging by the sex education she has mandated in her state) is abstinence only. I think we can all agree that the common goal is to reduce the number of unwanted pregnancies and abstinence only is not going to do that. People make poor decisions when they're uneducated. So much for that plan...Bristol Palin and Jevi Johnston really carried through w/ premarital sex and an unwanted pregnancy. (There is nothing wrong with them wanted to have a kid, but I don't think they planned on having a kid in the first place and that's why I think it's a bit hypocritical to be abstinence only and have premarital sex. In the words of Levi Johnston: "Cuntry first, condom second."

 
 
Posted by I mean really... Sunday, Sep 07, 2008 1355 days ago

Who would be against condoms in highschool? Your definitely IGNORANT if you believe that teaching abstinence will prevent young adults from having sex. Can we say denial?? Palin is entirely against abortion, meaning...regardless of rape, incest, or anything, shes against abortion. Its a womans right to choose, period. As for the person way up above, too bad they werent your mother, she would have done the world a favor and aborted you.

The world needs more abortions.

You do realize I said abstinence is not effective, right?

That baby that you are so willing to kill did not "CHOOSE" to be brought into the world! You may have made the choice to sleep around and then not deal with what you created, the life you made. How hard is it to see that Fetus as a life, sure it may still be inside of your body, but it has a body of it's own, it's own heart, it's own soul, even if it's mother is lacking both of those things. As for where are the right to lifers when there are babies and children who where not killed by their mothers but left up for adoption? There are people like the McCain's who adopt them and bring them home to give them a better life, or like so many famalies that I know that pray to have just one child of their own, but they are unable to so they adopt 4 to 5 children. I guess I just don't see how some people can have no morales, how they can live with themselves after committing murder.
I guess to sum up the way I feel about you is: To bad your Mom did not have your lack of morals, the world would be a better place.

"but until it can survive on it's own outside my body, it's my choice."

So what you're saying is abortion should be legalized for children up to say, 5 years old? I have yet to see a 2 year cook his/her own meal, let alone survive on his/her own.

Ignorance is bliss...

ummmm check out her character assassination speech at the RNC delivered in a irritating, nasal tone and you might get an idea.

Now that I see she uses a BB, I'm thinking about getting another one.

I love her and my whole family laughed when a friend of hers mentioned sending her a text on their BBs.

New issue of TIME has a spread pic of Palin (8700?), Cindy McCain (88xx) and Steve Schmidt (83xx) looking as though they might implode if they take their hands off their berries.

You libs just can't help yourselves can you?

There are a zillion sites out there where you can post and blog about how much you hate those mean and nasty Republicans. Places where you can say stupid things like:
"If he wins I'm moving out of the country" or
"If she wins I'll never use that product again"

And imagine my surprise---you never, ever do it.

How about doing all of us a favor.............

Go spew that crap somewhere else and leave this one site a place for those who love their Berry's to come and hang out. Or at the very least, confine your stupid coments to a political post.

Kevin, thanks for all the great pics. I could care less about most of those people but it is always cool to see others using their BB. This is a great site.

It's time for these Libs to get a job instead of waiting for there Party to babysit them. Economy most be really bad, I see that these crybabies all own Blackberries. I guess they fell they are entitled to keep their Berry's when they can't afford them? lol

 
 
Posted by reeneebob Saturday, Sep 06, 2008 1356 days ago

I'm sorry, I didn't know that as a liberal I wasn't allowed to have a day off work in my 60 plus hour work week.

The only name calling going on here is the republicans bashing the liberals, fyi. Speaks volumes.

As long as you stay out of my country, it's just too bad so many of your bad decisions affect the rest of us.

This is a photo of Palin using a blackberry.....Not a forum to debate abortion or any other issue. Please keep your comments out of these posts....they are not relative to the post. I happen to support Obama, but I'm not going to go and bash Palin or McCain in a comments section such as this.

Fellow Crackberry addicts: I am addicted to Crackberry.com because this "was" a place that allowed me to indulge my addiction regardless of my religion, politics, socio-economic status, or sexual orientation. Here, we are all equally addicted to a multi-media communication device. Please try to leave the politics out. I'm always happy to see "celebrities" who are crackberry addicts, whether I agree with their politics, lifestyle, choice of clothes, or not. :o)

Saw this post from blackberryinsight about an article on UK police force equipped with blackberries. This is so much better than celebrity sightings...now that is why BBs rock! :-) Not only are they being used by popular celebrities, they are so functional, they are used even by the police!

I noticed in some articles they mention her Blackberry phone. In one of the photos I saw, there were 2 Blackberry in front of her on her desk. O.o

My entire clan will be voting for her and McCain! :D
