McCain’s Bane,
America’s Lady in Hating
August 2, 2014
A number of highly visible Republican’ts have been throwing
around the idea of impeaching Obama lately. And not just the ones who have been
calling for his ouster since the moment he took his hand off the Bible after
being sworn in for his first term. You might not have heard all of these cries
since most of them can only be heard by dogs. Boehner is suing the president
for…well, essentially for not being a Republican’t. But that’s just not enough
for some, so it’s off to Impeachmentland they go. I wish them hell.
Here’s the latest from Our Lady of Perpetual Futility: “I
absolutely passionately believe that it is possible. And first, I believe
liberals want us to believe that they love hearing this talk of impeachment
because they’re going to be able to turn it around for their re-election bids.
It’s kind of a reverse psychology thing that they’re playing on us and some
people are buying into it. And that’s why I’m going to be even more adamant
about explaining why we should impeach.” In case you haven’t already guessed the
who uttered this simultaneous assault on language and logic, it was none other
than Sarah Palin, who can say less with 100 words than most people can say with
none.
The half-term governor of Alaska just won’t STFU. Despite
the demonstrable fact that every word leaching out of her lips is worthless,
The Mouth That Bored is launching her very own channel on the internets. And
the best part is that it’s not free; so you don’t have to worry about
accidentally hearing her voice while you’re surfing the web. However, for a
mere $9.95 a month you can be a self-righteous subscriber to the Sarah Palin
Channel. Go ahead, I dare you. Who needs Netflix for an occasional movie or TV
show, when you can watch Nutflix all day, every day…until she up and quits.
It isn’t.
Palin is peddling her “channel” – actually it’s a website –
as an alternative to mainstream media, and a place where despondent
conservatives can wallow in stupidity posing as fantasy. I guarantee that after
watching the Sarah Palin Channel for a half hour, you’ll be wishing Obamacare
really did have Death Panels.
Don’t get me wrong, I love the First Amendment. And I support
every American’s right to speak their mind in public, even Ms. Palin, even
though using the words mind and Palin in the same sentence may in fact be a
violation of the First Amendment, or at the very least an insult to intelligent
discourse. However, my real concern is the exacerbation of global climate
change that will result from the excessive emissions from Palin’s mouth and the
consequent spike in hot air, carbon dioxide and, I imagine, methane.
So please try to resist the urge to subscribe to Palin’s
channel. I’m sure you can find other ways to relieve yourself of unwanted money
and/or delight yourself with random verbiage.

Thanks for listening. Forget about gold, invest in earplugs.
