Please, caption this and I expect more imagination than “Running For Office.”  

Sarah Palin, as she appears on the Runner’s World website.  Did anyone ever know she was this hot?

Oh, man. That Palin family. I thought they’d stop entertaining us after this last Presidential election wrapped up, but I should have known better.

Here’s a clip of Levi whining to Tyra Banks about how Bristol is mean to him and won’t let him take the baby anywhere. Poor Levi. He really has that “pathetic” act down pat right now. I almost feel bad for him. Almost. And I love how Tyra is just coaxing out every sob-story word of it, letting every little drop of mock-tragedy fall like water down her silly, silly extensions.

So what does Sarah Palin’s camp have to say about all this? “We’re disappointed that Levi and his family, in a quest for fame, attention and fortune, are engaging in flat-out lies, gross exaggeration, and even distortion of their relationship,” her rep said in a statement. Dude. That’s a really poorly written statement. It’s not clear what “their relationship” and its corresponding “distortion” refers to. The Palins can’t even get a publicist who can write?

Sarah Palin’s niece auctioned a pair of shoes that Auntie wore while on the campaign trail; they sold for $2025 on Ebay.  Who knew the provenance of Sarah Palin’s GOP foot sweat was so desirable?  Palin has repeatedly stated that she felt she was under constant attack during the days leading up to the direction.  If you’d like the sanitized version (and who wouldn’t?), you can buy the same Naughty Monkey shoes here new for ninety bucks.

As a related tip during these tough economic times, I do a bit of selling on Ebay and have learned that used shoes and socks have a very dedicated following.  If you think I’m kidding, search “well worn socks” and “well worn shoes” in Ebay’s completed listings; seventy-eight pictures of ped porn per listing plus vaguely written descriptions equals big bucks.

Thank God this woman isn’t our VP.  When questioned about her geographical skills, she called the media “jerks” and stuck her tongue out at the reporter.  The tongue part is a lie; I have a rich fantasy life.  Regardless, this is truly the most finessed and polished wordage she could come up with?  How about something like “I dispute the facts as they were reported.”?  Gah!  Can you even imagine?  I can almost picture her at a briefing and being like “We have to get Osama Bin Laden.  He’s such a poopy pants!”  

I think of other high-profile women in politics.  Golda Meir, Margaret Thatcher, Corazon Aquino, Hillary Clinton.  Can you ever imagine one of them, while speaking to the media, calling the media jerks?  And how about that Miss Jackson if you’re nasty head snap at the end of the video?  She’s as fun as a peep show to watch but thank God she isn’t a heartbeat away from the presidency.

 

Sarah Palin didn’t know that Africa was a continent.  So what?  Who knows that kind of stuff?  And is that really necessary knowledge to be VP?

Ahhhhh ha ha ha ha ha!

This clip is totally safe for work.

But I’m definitely going to have to watch the whole thing once it’s out.

Justin Timberlake may have brought sexy back, but Sarah Palin is bringing PORN back!!!!

Saturday Night Live is a comedy show. It’s not Meet the Press. It doesn’t “ask the tough questions” or “set the agenda.” It attempts, with varying degrees of success, to make people laugh. That’s it. Whether they skewer and savage people in order to do so, they don’t care. When you come on a show like that, you are prepared in advance to get worked over. Palin knew that. Palin came on to be a good sport. And she was. She was polite, gracious. (More so than some of the famous actors who come through there, believe me.)

However, I assume that, like Meet the Press, SNL feels an obligation to offer their special forum to any and all public figures and officials who are current. Headline making. And in SNL’s case, would make for a hit show. Several people decried SNL for giving her a spot on the show. You’re kidding, right? The woman is the Vice Presidential nominee of one of the two major parties in this country. Don’t put her on SNL? With all of her exposure and the Tina Fey performance? What reality are you in?

If you think an appearance on Saturday Night Live would sway voters and actually affect the outcome of the election, you may have more contempt for the electorate of this country than the Republican National Committee does. And that’s a lot of contempt.

Alec Baldwin, writing for the Huffington Post, about Palin’s appearance on SNL this past weekend.

Honestly, people, why are you taking this Palin-on-SNL-thing so seriously? Alec Baldwin didn’t even take it seriously enough to memorize both his lines.
