Noooooooooooo!

I was reading CNN.com this morning and saw something that was truly awful!

Sarah Palin is quitting politics!!!!

This is terrible news!

How will a blogger like me be able to go on without her?

'I'm through,' Palin says

Waitaminute! Wait just a gosh-durned minute there!

I just read the article, and what Sarah said is that she's through "whining about the media"!


Oh, thank god!

I don't know what I'd do if we didn't have Sarah Palin to kick around any more. I thought I was gonna have to actually work to come up with an easy blog post every so often!

All is well.

UPDATE!

What can I say?

I love Sarah, and I love "Fargo" (the Coen Brothers movie from 1996)...

So tell me, what can possibly be better than this? (BTW Frances McDormand totally rocks!)

Bob, get a grip.

Even if Wailin' Palin reverts to bein' her former role as a cheerleader, it's still a "target-rich" environment (what with Bachmann, Gingrich en ensemble).

Quoth the "Godzilla from Wasilla":

"Loader up agin!"

Maybe, but Sarah is in a class all by herself!

Uhm, you can kick around Michelle Bachman? She's in the race according to Time's Mark Halperin.

Well...There's always joe lieberman...

But I reccommend rep. peter king

Sorry if they're both male, but I still think they qualify.

CT Bob said...

I don't really qualify candidates by gender when I ridicule them...I prefer to rate them by "dingbat quotient".

Sarah scores a flawless "100" on that scale, but there's certainly no shortage of lesser dingbats in the GOP. You absolutely can count on me to address them in due time.

One more quick thing- I'm marveling at the photograph CT_Bob used.

There's just something about it that I can't quite put my finger on. Is it the strange lighting and contrast? The weird perspective that makes her jaw appear about twice as large as her cranium (and that even with the pouffed up hair)? The puffy cheeks that look like a chipmunk smuggling walnuts? The ditzy sorta-smile? Or is it the lack of a body, like an alien head in a bell jar?

Much as I love to, ummm, "retouch" stuff, I don't think I could improve on it. Bravo Bob, nice work.

lakezoarian, the photo appears to be straight from the CNN story (follow the link). It does not seem to be retouched (other than cropped) to me.

CT Bob said...

That's exactly it, straight from CNN but cropped. Not 'shopped at all. She really looks like that up-close. She's freaky.

Hi carterman- I was trying to be funny. If you've seen what I did a while back to CT_Bob here, you'll realize that when I say "retouch" it might not mean what you think, tee hee.

Also, I liked the Youtube. reminded me of this reecent FDL post:
