Okay, after the last few weeks, I have come to a realization that Sarah Palin is worse than Dan Quayle.
I do some open mic stand up, and love just commentating on life. My friends have often told me (and I do find this so flattering) I am the type of guy at the party that makes everyone laugh, from just making observations.
But when I first really fell in love with stand up, I remeber hearing someone say that Dan Quayle was to stand up routine what Microwave ovens were to Appliance salesmen: WE'RE SAVED!!!!!!!!!
Now as Sarah Palin has become more well known, I feel like I am experiencing this myself. I am also disappointed. Sarah Palin has become her own punchline;
Two moose walk into a bar,
Sarah Palin.
That's all thats needed, it's like Lewis Black said about Michael Jackson.... it's not all good.
Mrs. Palin, Govoner.... PLEASE!!! Don't write my material for me. Tina Fey appreciates it, but I prefer to try and find humor and wit by delving into the topics.
Then today on a local radio station (94.9 Norfolk... no clue on the call sign) one of the two females stated she was tired of people picking on Sarah Palin, and she thought it was becuase of her looks. This is a person who is a female, and goes by the moniker "Woo Woo" (Of the Chuck, Heather and Woo Woo morning whatever they call it)(Woo Woo plays the ditzy one for the record)
I couldnt get through on the phone, but here is a quick response that I believe everyone might want to use.
"I am not calling out Gov. Palin's record or gaffs because she is pretty or female. I am calling her out cause she's a MORON.
I don't want Vice President Babrie up there just waiting for Bill Kristol or any other necon waiting to pull her string to spout out whatever programmed line is needed for that moment. I want someone who understands and grasps the things to needed to command the worlds last original super-power.
This is gender and race nuetral. This is a requirement. I EXPECT the President AND Vice President to be able to name a Supreme Court case they dont agree with other than Roe v Wade on the drop of a dime. My co-workers might not be able to, but I think that little emminent domain case the supreme court ruled on a few years ago in Conneticut?
Plessy v Fergusson, Brown vr Topeka Board of Education, HEY MRS LAW & ORDER, How about Miranda v Arizona?
Claiming anyone who asks you a question you answer off the cuff is gotcha journalism, and then claiming sexism as well??
Quit dealing from the bottom of the deck Mrs Palin, my mother, grandmother, wife and my daughters deserve better representation as a woman, and all of us deserve better respresentation from a canidate for the second most important office in this country.
If I wanted Joe Six-Pack running the country, The country would vote for a recovering alcoholic with a daddy complex....
SHIT!!!! nevermind
