The Future of the GOP = Ha Ha Funny
Cut & paste blogging from kos because I can.
The future of the GOP, in all her glory:
A couple of weeks before the Alaska legislature began this year’s session, a bipartisan group of state senators on a retreat a few hours from here invited Gov. Sarah Palin to join them. Accompanied by a retinue of advisers, she took a seat at one end of a conference table and listened passively as Gary Stevens, the president of the Alaska Senate, a former college history professor and a low-key Republican with a reputation for congeniality, expressed delight at her presence.
Would the governor, a smiling Stevens asked, like to share some of her plans and proposals for the coming legislative session?
Palin looked around the room and paused, according to several senators present. “I feel like you guys are always trying to put me on the spot,” she said finally, as the room became silent.
Damn Republicans in Alaska, with their “gotcha” questions…
Update: What she could’ve answered, from the comments:
all of ’em…
all the legislation. Any of it that’s been put in front of me over the years, also the legislation about job growth you know and the maverick.
Bwa ha ha ha
sarah palin is the reason i drink myself to sleep at night
I’m with you, a. 47% of Americans voted to put her one 71-year-old heartbeat away from the presidency. A significant number of Republicans want her to head the ticket in 2012.
I saw a Palin 2012 bumper sticker the other day. The person driving the SUV looked almost normal but I stayed way back because you just never know what somebody that crazy might do. Driving under the influence of Palin could be dangerous.
Hoping for Palin to run, I feel a little bit of what Republicans must of felt when they thought Hilary Clinton was going to be the Dem nominee.
What she said: “I feel like you guys are always trying to put me on the spot,”
What she really said: “I haven’t been told yet. That national GOP is going to be spoonfeeding me legislation for the next few years so I can look good when the next election rolls around.”
Puppet in Training
Palin has decided that the victim role is a winning strategy. Her battle cry is why’s everybody always pickin’ on me.
And while this strategy may work on occasion, its overuse with only succeed in turning the battle cry into a joke. Um… too late.
why’s everybody always pickin’ on me
Fortunately, she is providing plenty of answers to that question.
