Sarah Palin at the G-8 .... thoughts? Impressions? Comments?
Express your feelings here.

My feelings... utter embarrassment!

I am actually cringing at the thought. The US will continue to be the laughingstock of the world.

Not to mention the fact that we will lose so much more ground in dealing with other nations and negotiating in a way that benefits our nation and the world.

3. By then, it'll be, "There's as many countries here as I have kids and grandkids."

5. Probably no worse than shrub..
I'm guessing at least she would give Angela Merkel a back rub. Personally I'd like the bar set a bit higher though.

7. Palin would be significantly more embarrassing than *Bush at the G-8.
And that's not an easy feat.

8. Everyone will be wondering why Mary Ann from Gilligan's Island is
attending the G-8.

They could understand Thurston Howell III, but Mary Ann? :shrug:

11. We haven't even compared her records against other Governors
I mean Arnold has almost 36 million more people to govern!
Perry has almost 26 million more....
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_U.S._states_by_population

She has the population density of 1.2 people per square mile!
D.C. has 9,644.1 per square mile!
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_U.S._states_by_population_density

1 person every mile, hell I could handle that!!

Too salty. Might make her face puffy.

And the low-salt version? Yuck!

13. They'd have to change the name to G-7.
Maybe even 6.5!
