It's good to see that people are shooting down any lie about Obama, and any glossing of Palin, as soon as it tries to leave the ground.
So let's look at Palin. What DO we know? Not a lot. In fact, most of what we know can be put into a few pictures.
Join me for the Susan Palin Gallery, below the fold...
First thing we know is that she won second prize in a beauty contest.
It sounds like a Community Chest card in Monopoly because it IS a Community Chest card in Monopoly.
Maybe that should be McNopoly.
It's said by some that Palin has lots of foreign experience because she lives so close to Russia. How close? Not very. Google Earth says over 680 miles from Wasilla to the nearest Ruskie rock.
By the same metric, people in Prague have a great shot at becoming the next Prime Minister of Great Britain because the capital of the Czech Republic is less distance to London! (Don't ask John about Prague, Sarah, he'll just get confused.)
There's some debate over who she looks like. Some have said Peggy Hill.
But some have suggested Karen from Will & Grace...
...and that's not a slant at Palin. It's a quote from the show. Others say she looks a bit like Tina Fey (in Palin's DREAMS) or that Big Fat Greek Wedding woman Nia Vardalos.
There's a lot floating around concerning the birth of her latest son. Some are asking who the mother is... I'm not going there. But some point to the fact that Palin returned to work just three days after giving birth to Amoxicillin Lipitor Onomatopoeia Trig Paxson Van Palin.
The baby was named after rock group Van Halen. I wish with all the hope I ever had that I was making that up. I really do.
So what is Wasilla famous for in Alaska? Well, you just have to see what Alaskans would make of the sleepy little hamlet in their jokes...
