I thought Michael Palin was/is English?
‘Course, we’ve been ignoring so much of the Constitution for so long that I’m sure we could ignnore the “quaint” requirement that Presidents be native born if it would tip the electoral balance in our favor./s
Heh….On Sit Room, Carville just caught the McCain spokeswoman on the pork that Palin got…he asked if Palin hired an Abramoff protogee who then got Palin $27 million for her town of 6,000 people, which amounted to about $4,000 per person…the McCain spokeswoman refused to answer and said they could discuss it “offline”….
So far she’s been allowed into public view only to deliver a speech similar to the one she gave at her party’s convention, the one in which, with the sass and smile of a punch line, she ridiculed community organizers who step up to help less fortunate communities whose government has allowed them to fall through the cracks. Her speech made for good television, something the McCain camp felt they desperately needed. And it sure fired up the folks at the Republican National Convention. Who can blame them? They finally have a candidate who can shoot a gun, drink a beer AND speak in complete English sentences. This is real change for them.
Hey! I was just on The Blog Bunker (INDY Talk/Sirius Satellite Radio)! We were supposed to talk about Sarah Palin & this year’s RNC, but when I started explaining that the republicans always bring up national security as a ”strength” because that’s all they have, I had to point out that the biggest attack on our nation happened under George Bush who was too busy talking about other things…well…let’s just say the whole segment was about 9/11 after that! LOL I don’t think I shut up even during the commercial breaks. ;-)
at last, the doors of government have been thrown open and anyone can attain the highest offices in the land. because if sarah palin can be a heart beat away from the presidency, then clearly a era of new opportunity has dawned for us all. but john mccain picked the wrong palin. introducing the newest third party candidate for president of the united states, former monty python member, michael palin. although a british citizen and technically not qualified to run for office in the united states, he’s still more qualified than the other palin.
a constitutional scholar:
strange women lying in ponds, distributing swords is no basis for a system of government. supreme executive power derives from a mandate from the masses.
with a keen understanding of economics:
18 pounds and a kilt, that’s – nine hundred million pounds!
and a tough stance on the environment:
i’m a lumber jack and i’m ok. i sleep all night, i work all day.
michael palin is also an expert at foreign policy and international diplomacy:
this is supposed to be a happy occasion, let’s not bicker and argue about who killed who
while a deeply religious man:
nobody expects the spanish inquisition!
committed to tradition family values:
every sperm is sacred, every sperm is grace
with his extensive military background:

he’s also tough on terrorists and not afraid to use advanced interrogation methods:
if that’s the way you want it. cardinal, poke her with the soft cushion – ha ha!
a true visionary, a man of the people and most importantly, a hockey mom with a simple homespun philosophy that anyone can understand:
try to be nice to people, avoid eating fat, read a good book every now and then, get some walking in and try to live together in harmony with people of all creeds and nations. and finally, here are some gratuitous pictures of penises.
michael palin, because apparently anyone can run the free world nowadays. so why not?

How many electoral votes does England have again?
FunnyD
Sadly, he’s disqualified. But then, Arnie is disqualified for the same reason. Perhaps that balances things out.
Thanks Ian. Needed those laughs!
Hey I was on my school’s PTA. Why didn’t McCain pick me?
Heh….On Sit Room, Carville just caught the McCain spokeswoman on the pork that Palin got…he asked if Palin hired an Abramoff protogee who then got Palin $27 million for her town of 6,000 people, which amounted to about $4,000 per person…the McCain spokeswoman refused to answer and said they could discuss it “offline”….
I’ll bet one could do a lot worse than the adaptable, travelling Michael Palin.
Besides, maybe he’s thought enough about Jack Lint to want to help clean up a bureaucracy full of them.
That’s appalingly true, they did pick the wrong one.
Thanks Eli.
Linked this up earlier, but can’t stop laughing. If you know what “RickRolling” is, you haveta watch this:

Michael Palin is someone I’d like to have a beer with :)
fucking brilliant. love it.
this one is going to keep me laughing for a long time.
…and unlike McSame…he’s not dead yet!
missed it…was it Nancy Pfluffenpuff?
is there a transcript, or am i going to have to make one?
No, it is the woman with the long brown hair that is on all the time…I don’t know her name, but it was priceless.
Pretty funny, Ian.
No one expects the
PelosiSpanish Inquisition!Hey that’s a new evasion tactic. good to know.
Sarah Palin. From Pipeline to Offline.
al franken is up with a funny (and effective) one:
Norm Coleman: Running Man
Gov. Sarah Palin’s church is promoting a conference that promises to convert gays into heterosexuals through the power of prayer.
But this is the self-help you can get if you hang with Palin.
And Bush announcing lots more troops to come home at first of the year. Yeah.
My choice for QOTD:
my bold.
YouTube with more of Palin’s executive experience, and ability to command the respect of his subordinates.
New Christy upstairs on choice.

Just thought I’d share.

Ohohoho!
That was a brilliant synthesis.
Government experience includes seeking a ministry grant to make a walk which is not particularly silly, very silly.
too hilarious for folks on dial up not to enjoy. so i just did a v. quick transcript.
