There's somethin' about Sarah

Many of the world's major religions revere Sarah as a major figure.  In both the Hebraic & Islamic holy books, Sarah's beauty, prophetic insights and role as the wife of Abraham or Ibrahim cast her in a special role in the history of these peoples.

In the present day, we have our own figure of great beauty and insight, known as Sarah Palin.  Though she's married to Todd, who while he may not be Abraham who founded a people, five kids is nothing to sneeze at.  Other than failing to marry a biblical prophet, the ancient Hebrew Sarah had nothin' on our lady from Wasilla. 

Our modern day Sarah, who was unfortunately bound to the fatally-flawed John McCain as her running mate (why oh why did she pick him?!) in the great battle against the infidel Barack Hussein Obama, now faces the monumental challenge of remaining in the public eye for a period of no less than four years, a virtual eternity while you're waiting for your next 15 minutes to arrive.  In fact, if you want to know exactly how long four years can be in Alaska, here's what you need to do: buy a walk-in freezer, equip it with a couple of moose heads (a few Mooseheads wouldn't hurt, either), bundle up and plop your ass down until the Iowa caucus.

In the meantime though, there's the small matter of your Q rating. If no one can remember who you are in four years, fat lot of good this whole escapade will have done ya. We are not not goin' to let that happen, are we Sarah? You betcha we're not.

So, what can we do to keep our name on everyone's mind?  What can we do?

Hmm.

There must be an issue that will energize our base so they're still jazzed for more of our elk chili recipes in '12. Think, think, think. 

Hey! How about this!  We can tell everyone what a jerk that Barack Hussein Obama is!  How his policies will be bad for the country!

Oh wait, that's a problem because people seem to like him and besides, then we'd have to talk about why we think the policies are bad and the next thing you know, people would be expectin', ya know, answers and stuff to all those rascally media questions.

That's it!  The media!  (Cue harps and light shining down from the good Lord's heaven above)

We'll just blame the media for everythin'!  We'll blame the media for callin' our son-in-law, the one who dropped out of high school, a drop-out!  How dare they?!

We'll blame them for giving that Caroline Kennedy such an easy ride!  Why I'd bet she can't even see the Russian Tea Room from her house!

We'll blame that Katie Couric for exploiting us for purely political purposes and askin' all those trick questions about newspapers and Supreme Court what do you call 'ems, rulings!

There ya go!  We can come up with 4 years of that stuff, easy!  Heck, they print newspapers pretty much all the time, don't they?  They must run that CNN at least 6 hours a day so that should give us lots of material.

That's the ticket! Well, half of it anyway...

Now, who should we get as our next runnin' mate next time?  How 'bout Reagan?

Nah, he'd probably want too much attention.

Update: Welcome CNN readers.  Apparently this post has been snagged by some list of blogs on CNN.com. Go Habs.

no problem staying in the light. we have individuals like you who write absurd things about Mrs. Palin out of spite, jealousy and the quest to out do her. Good luck on that, she rules!

[FlexSF]

Those "bored, anonymous, pathetic," bloggers are voters, you right-wing moose shooter, hillbilly.

[Rebel Without A Pause]

Actually, Palin is her own worse enemy, as are most right-wing idealogues who simply can't accept that their narrow, intolerant view of the word is in danger of become totally irrelevant--and extinct.

Here's one bored anonymous Blogger who tells the truth. Sarah is a dim witted wannabe has been. Now can we get over it?

[Maria Temoche]

I for one am tired of hearing from Sarah dim wit wanna be. Why won't she just fade into obscurity? She lost and all this noise is just sour grapes!

That sure is a motley bunch in the picture. Just Palins style. She wondered why McCains people try to muzzle her? I'll tell you why. She didn't have anything worth saying and kept making a fool of herself with her ignorance.
No one was out to spite her. She self destructed long before any media or people caught on. I don't know why they keep writing about her. The way she slammed Bush, Obama, and everyone she could set tongue to...it seems to me it is all coming back to haunt her. She needs to go back to school and quit thinking you can wink your way through life and get what you want on your looks. You have to have a mind, Deary. So Sarah, get a life. Do you ever take time for the kiddies? You asked for everything your are getting so shut your wicked mouth, do your job, and stay in Alaska. No job for you here in the rest of the USA.
