Twelve Years of Palinsanity?
I’ve written more about Sarah Palin, and the crazed reactions to her, in the past two weeks than probably anyone else in the time I’ve had The Shack. I’ve honestly watned to write less about her but the stories just keep pulling me back in. I’m less fascinated with her, though, than I am with the people who have gone completely batspit insane at the very notion of her getting within ten feet of the White House.
James Lileks shares my interest, and puts it a lot better than I ever could.
I don’t know if anyone’s stated the obvious yet, but this might be the first time people have become unhinged in advance over a vice-presidential candidate. Not to say some aren’t painting McCain as something the devil blurted out in a distracted moment during his daily conference call with Cheney, but a Veep? It took a while for people to believe that Cheney commissioned private snuff films with runaways dressed up to resemble a portion of the Bill of Rights, but Palin is She-Wolf of the Tundra right off the bat. And god help us she can use email, which means she will control the government. The most Spy ever did with Quayle was stick him in a dunce hat. By the time we reach the election Oliphant will probably draw Palin sodomizing by an oil derrick with guns for arms. I have to confess: I think Palin is an interesting politician, but the people she’s driving batty are much more fascinating.
imagine 12 years of this.
It’s that last sentence that’s the kicker.
Seriously. Imagine 12 years of Palinsanity. If John McCain wins on November 4, I suggest that you invest heavily in every manufacturer of high-blood pressure medication and anti-depression drugs you can find. Their business is going to go through the roof.
