This Sarah Palin nomination is going great! And now she’s laid out her geopolitical philosophy in the new issue of Foreign Affairs.

(Yes, I made this. Go here for more stuff like it.)
wow. this might be your best work.
Paste his picture and change the name, you could have a magazine cover made by Joe Biden.
Thanks, el serracho!
This cover is hilarious! Obviously no one will really take it seriously because it is obviously tongue-in-cheek, but it definitely gets a “C” for creativity and imagination. It looks very professional as long as you don’t read it. You should get a job as a cover editor for a magazine if you aren’t working as one already…a magazine that publishes all of the best lines of the late-night politic satirists. This cover even has a bar code. Way to go!
As a mother of two and 44 years old myself, I can not be happier to see a “real” person on the ticket.
I also want bring your attention to this site: www.governorpalin.blogspot.com
You beat the New Yorker to it.
nice political satire Let’s see one on Senator Obama. The way the Europeans fawned over him was hilarious and would make for great political satire.
“Don’t be afraid of information,” Sarah Palin said. “Healthy debate is so important, and it’s so valuable in our schools. I am a proponent of teaching evolution side-by-side with the Babylonian account of creation, ‘Marduk Creates the World from the Spoils of Battle.’”
I loved your magazine cover! Here is some inside copy I wrote for you:
McCain Announces Cabinet Picks!
John McCain was so pleased that his announcement of Sarah Palin as his VP helped him pick up the gun-totin’, beauty queen, Christian hockey moms’ votes, that he has decided to make all of his cabinet picks known ahead of time. “Experience?! We don’t need no stinkin’ experience. I’ve got enough experience for all of us!” Here are his picks and his comments when he announced them:
Secretary of State: Carmen Sandiego. “What? She’s not real?! That’s OK, neither is my foreign policy!”
Attorney General: O.J. Simpson. “There’s nobody I know with more experience with the law AND he should help with the African-American vote.”
Secretary of Agriculture: Jimmy Hudrucker, Jr., President of the Sedalia, Missouri 4H Club. “Who better to run the department than someone who has been raising pork for all 16 years of his life?”
Secretary of the Treasury: Michael Phelps. “He knows how to handle gold.”
Secretary of Defense: Ralph Macchio, aka the Karate Kid. “Wax on, Wax off will be the essence of my military defense strategy.” When asked what he meant by that, he replied, “What does what mean?”
Secretary of the Interior: Paris Hilton. “It was a toss-up between Paris and Martha. They both really know how to decorate but I liked Paris’ home video AND she likes furry little animals.”
Transportation Secretary: Kyle Busch. “Busch with a ‘ch’ dummies! Having NASCAR represented in government will finally put it on the map and give it the attention it deserves. Kyle’s first job will be to raise the speed limit so people can get where they’re going faster thereby using less gas. We Republicans care about the environment, too.”
Homeland Security: Chuck Norris, of course. “After all, he IS a Texas Ranger with a long history of protecting our borders.”
Secretary of Health and Human Services: Meredith Grey. “I hear she knows anatomy, she’s a real babe, and this department won’t matter in my administration anyway.”
Secretary of Commerce: Pablo Escobar. “As head of the Medellin Cartel he increased exports 400%… What? Dead you say. What a shame. Then how about Alex Rodriguez? He knows how to bargain and would also help with the Latino vote. He’s still alive isn’t he?”
Education Secretary: Miley Cyrus. “She will be a real inspiration to young people everywhere that if you stay in school, study hard, and have a split personality you too can achieve the real American dream. She was our third choice, though. Mr. Rogers was dead and Kermit turned us down.”
Veteran’s Affairs: Sylvester “Rambo” Stallone. He has served the United States well and truly knows what it’s like to continually risk your life and not be appreciated by your country.”
Secretary of Housing and Urban Affairs: “We’re in talks with those Queer Eye guys. We have great confidence that they will pull in the Homo vote.”
Department of Religion and Pro-Life Affairs: “What?! It’s my Country and I’ll do what I want with it just like George!”
On Working With President Mccain - He’s progressed to using emoticons on his emails :-)
how much “oil” money does her husband make?
This is inspired! However, Mark H’s comments regarding Cabinet picks is sheer genius - Letter to the Editor? You’ve missed your calling!
This woman downgraded the Women Movement in that interview. Charlie Gibson had to be soft and gentle with her. This has the potential to be a backlash on women in power in the future. Equality should extend to the press. This woman is not qualified to be VP. If she cannot have an interview without days of prepping, then go figure. By the way, they should prep her on expanding her limited vocabulary.
Hey Frieda … Paris Hilton is a real person too. Think you could vote for her? I’ll bet she can see the Pacific Ocean from her back yard too! Please, tell me you have more brains than that.
