Something's A Little Off Here - And I Think It Might Be Sarah Palin…

Judge for yourself: Did Sarah Palin get into Aunty Peggy Noonan's jar of Magic Dolphin Pills before her speech in Denver this week?

For those of us in need of some comic relief, Sarah Palin, once again, delivers. In some ways, watching parts of the Western Conservative Summit, in Colorado, is excruciating. But in more ways, it's pretty damn amusing. That is, if you can make it through Dan 'All Racists Must Be Atheists' Caplis's intro. He says:

"It is a privilege to be in the same room as Governor Sarah Palin. Stop and think about it for a second. Governor Palin is the most influential woman in the history of the Republican party."

(Okay, if you say so.)

And then he steps into it deeper:


"And she remains one of the most influential political figures of the 21st century."

(Now, Sir - I do protest!)

Sarah starts at about 4:00 (LOL):

I had this memory of some Palin worshiper explaining that this was just good old down home Sarah that didn't need no stink-en teleprompter.
I must be getting old as on the third cup I remembered and wouldn't you know it...........

9. Liberals can't stand that
Sarah Palin has a sense of humor. That she doesn't need a teleprompter. And that she tends to capture audiences with her "talking in your living room" style of speaking to an audience.

You guys are so jealous you could spit.

And I think it's hilarious to watch you squirm and squirt ink every time she opens her mouth. LOL!

Rockey, watch me pull a rabbit out of my hat.
Noooooooo Bullwinkle that's not a rabbit it's Sahara Palin
Whoops, think I need another hat.

Tina Fey's impression of her was do popular it drove Mad TV off the air.

Her exaggerated caricature of Sarah Palin is hilarious, and at the same time comes across as being more Palin than Palin herself. Wait a minute, you mean this woman is NOT Tina Fey???
