Breaking News: Sarah Palin is right about something!

Johan · May 08, 2016, 12:31:25 PM

Until now I would have sworn she had no connection with reality at all. But apparently she is able to connect with and understand reality from time to time. Who knew?

Sounds to me like she's kinda sorta maybe fishing for a job. But I'm losing track. Didn't Trump already pick a partner, or was that one of those other guys that added a running mate and then promptly dropped out of the race? Palin was right about not having much to offer to the ticket, other than that her recent time in the limelight would make her as well vetted (cough, cough) as anyone. Yeah, I think she's fishing for a job. Maybe Bernie Sanders will take her on. But then nobody ever voted for her for anything. She just gets someone else to appoint her to a position, and then that person loses. Well, OK, some people voted for her in Alaska (is that a territory or a state?), but then she got bored with that job and quit because they wouldn't let her be governor and work out of her kitchen by telephone. How old is she? Like 16? Oh wait that's her daughter. I can't tell them apart.

She's got my vote for press secretary. The lols would be endless.

"Ladies and gentlemen of the press. I'm so glad you could all be here today. As you know, President Trump has been wanting Congress to pass a tax cut for the middle class to make America strong again. I know that sounds totally looney tunes to everyone, so I told him, 'Mr. President, you can't give a tax cut to the middle class when Corporate America needs that money so bad," then he says, "Yeah, but if I just give it to Corporate America, I'll look like an asshole." Well he wouldn't budge, so I said, "OK then, why don't you just give it to major casinos," and he seemed OK with that so I saved our asses on that one, thank God."

Next, the president has been talking about a good will trip to the Mideast. Can you believe it? He says he wants to try and patch things up for some of his stupid remarks during the campaign. Fortunately, I pointed out that absolutely nothing is happening in the Mideast, and those people won't listen to anything, anyway. So he says, "Well maybe I could go to Mt. Rushmore then." Now I just about fell off my chair! I told him; I said, "Donald what are you THINKING? Mt. Rushmore is so 1950s. Lets take a trip to New Mexico. We could go pickup a few neat little things in some of those cute art galleries in Santa Fe, and decorate a room in the White House with a Southwestern feel. You could tell everyone we went to Mexico to talk to the Prime Minister, or whatever they call that guy down there, and we could kill two birds with one stone." Well, he was OK with that, so it looks like I saved the day again. Sheesh, it's just a good thing I'm in his Cabinet or he could make a real mess of things. And thank you all for coming. Next time, I'll tell you more about what I have in mind for a really great America."

Thats just a little... too convincing.

I dunno..unless she just comes right out and says she's a stupid bimbo and would blow every sailor in the fifth fleet on national teevee I have a tough time believing anything she says..

It's not Palin. It's Drumpf. He can make anyone look smarter or right about something.
