One if by Land, Two if by Tea

Sarah Palin gave a speech to a “tea party” a few days ago, one in which she said “America is ready for another revolution.” Palin’s comments, according to a Register-Guard article, were typically hilarious.

“We need a commander in chief not a professor of law.”

“Foreign policy can’t be managed through the politics of personality,” she said.

Which is exactly why the M.I.L.F decided to quit her job halfway through to join Fox News as a “pundit”. Oh, it gets better.

She assailed the $787 billion stimulus plan — “Did you feel very stimulated?” she asked

(Insert snarky sexual innuendo here)

And…

All she offered was a smile when a moderator asking her questions used the phrase “President Palin.”

I also found the writer of the Register-Guard’s article, Liz Sidoti, to be a bit short-sighted in one comment where she explained for her readers what the “tea parties” are.

Palin gave the keynote address at the first national convention of the “tea party” coalition, an anti-establishment, grass-roots network motivated by anger over the growth of government, budget-busting spending and Obama’s policies.

Anti-establishment, grass-roots network? Hmm. Palin also delivered her cunning wit to go along with her perfect cheekbones.

Noting Democrats’ recent electoral losses just a year after Obama was elected on promises of hope and change, she asked: “How’s that hope-y, change-y stuff workin’ out for you?”

Obviously, it’s not going as well for Obama as it is for Palin. Well, unless you count this picture, which I took about 2 weeks after her book came out:

Probably the funniest thing I’d seen all year.

I’m glad Sarah Palin is still around. In all seriousness… I don’t take her serious in any way, shape or form. She’s a joke now, and she’ll be a joke in 10 years. Like kind of like Bob Dole. Or Mark McGrath.

Palin is coming to Eugene, for some unknown reason, in the month of April. Republicans are allowed to go, but seeing as how we hardly fit that bill, I rather doubt we’ll be able to get in. Well, that and if anyone reads this blog post (and I’m sure Newscorp has trolls that do such things) it probably puts us out of the running for a pass.

Damn. Looks like they’ll be having the revolution without us.
