I so, so wish I had written that line, but alas I did not..
My milspec snarkometer explodes in a shower of burning plastic and molten metal nearly every time I log onto balloon-juice, it's one of the funniest blogs on da tubez..
http://www.balloon-juice.com/?p=29874#commentsVia NoMoreMisterNiceGuy, I see that Newsweek seems to have devoted an entire issue to Sarah Palin. As I said earlier, with Sarahcuda dribbling through a full-court press from the media (I’m not sure who I’m parodying here, but it’s someone), Playgirl’s got to pull the trigger on the Levi issue ASAP.
Anyway, the Newsweek analysis isn’t entirely stupid, though it does push the “center-right” nation bullshit. One piece compares her to Barry Goldwater, which I think is wrong. I agree with this email from a reader, suggesting she is more like a cross between Carrie Prejean and Rudy Giuliani:
Palin/Prejean
I haven’t seen many comments about the similarities in the behavior of these two beauty queens.
Both expect to be treated with deference by journalists, and accuse the most milquetoast of old, male interviewers of bias.
They’re both conservative fundamentalist megachurch attendees.
Much of what they say is later proven to be a lie.
Both quit their day job to cash in.
Both have big skeletons in their closets, if you believe Levi Johnston.
Both have a gay blogger nemesis.
