Standard Sarah


Sarah Palin didn't leave the spot light for too long. Going Rogue is out and for those of you who haven't heard--it's just behind Fitzgerald's seminal Gatsby as the greatest American book of all time. I put it in the same category as the lush world of Daisey, Gatsby and Nick as it is based in an historical context, but in reality is completely fictional. In honor of the fast-approaching holiday season, I've composed a little jingle...

On the first day of Christmas the world through Palin's eyes gave to me:
A book reframing history.

On the second day of Christmas Sarah Palin gave to me:
Two Piper's piping.

On the third day of Christmas Sarah Barracuda gave to me:
Three doting Fox Newscasters.

On the fourth day of Christmas the Maverick gave to me:
Four lame excuses for exiting her Governorship midterm.

On the fifth day of Christmas Gov. Palin gave to me:

FIVE GOLDEN RINGS! (Why mess with the best line in the song, right?)

On the sixth day of Christmas Mdme. Tea Party gave to me:
Six failed GOP candidates with radically right platforms. (finger's crossed for the midterms next year)

On the seventh day of Christmas Ms. Wasilla gave to me:
Seven first dudes a-snowboarding

On the eighth day of Christmas Tripp's grandma gave to me:
Eight lost civil liberties in the name of family values

On the ninth day of Christmas Levi's number one fan gave to me:
Nine complete political contradictions.

On the tenth day of Christmas the moose hunter gave to me:
Ten giant steps backwards for women in politics.

On the eleventh day of Christmas the second-hand fashionista gave to me:
Eleven spectacular views of Russia from her back yard.

On the twelfth day of Christmas NOT our VP gave to me:
Twelve disparaging comments about us who are not as "Ordinary American" as she.

And this is awesome. Did you actually read this? As in, purchase the book and inadvertently contribute to her red suit collection? No words.

Another good nickname: The Winker from Wasilla. I'll be here all week folks! Dont forget to tip your waitress!
