[According to McClatchy, Palin's office indicates she has not agreed to be the keynote speaker at the Republican fundraiser in June; in fact, she has not decided to even attend the dinner. Somebody sure got their signals crossed. Repugnicans in Texas, of course, are so dumb they don't know signals from pigtails.]On June 8, the annual Senate-House dinner will be held in Washington, D.C. This is a Republican fundraiser-type dinner. It is to raise funds to help Repugnicans get elected to Congress.
Sarah Palin has been invited to be the keynote speaker at this auspicious event, which will be attended by all the nogoodnik, backward, nasty, christianist Repugnicans in town. She has accepted.
What is Sarah going to talk about? Of course, this is a cheerleading job and she's already proven her worth in that position, but cheerleading only goes so far. I guess she could relate once again how she sold her jet on eBay, or how she reads all the newspapers, or how she can see Alaska from her house.
She could go into detail as to why she never released her medical records, and she could reveal the truth as to what the hell happened to those clothes that cost the RNC a ton of money, or she might further discuss how Levi was not supposed to be working in the oil field 'cause he didn't have a diploma, and she might explain what happened to that young couple--Redneck Levi and daughter Bristol--of whom she was so proud because they were going to raise their baby up right.
Palin could further relate once again how she is innocent of abusing her office even though she was deemed guilty of doing just that, and she might describe how she's so desperately against earmarks, except when they provide funds for Wasilla or when they help to build a bridge to nowhere.
Sarah might also tell us how she wasn't really a drag on the Repugnican ticket in 2008 because John McCain is plain lame and his controllers had too tight a control on her, and if she'd only been able to get out and talk to the press more theywould have probably won the election.
She could try to take credit for finding Sam or Joe the plumber.
Perhaps she could emphasize all the qualities that made her fit to be vice president and thus would have made her fit to step into the Oval Office had McCain won and then kicked the bucket; or she might indicate to the Repugnican clowns in attendance at this dinner how she has a PAC going and will no doubt be running for prezident in 2012 'cause she's so smart and has all these great ideas.
Oh, another thing: she might explain how she was opposed to the stimulus, but now can't wait to get her grubby little hands (tainted with gunpowder residue) on the money; and she might explain how Alaska's economy is going down the tubes; and that there really is no gas pipeline in sight; and how nobody in their right mind would drill in the ANWR, and how she doesn't give a shit about polar bears or melting ice or global warming, and how the Tanana school district is $200,000 in the red and now must decide either to pay the bills or pay the teachers, and she could further explain how through her financial genius-like mind she's going to help that school district, which is soon to be replicated by hundreds of school districts throughout her state.
But do not weep for Sarah. The Repugs think she's the Virgin Mary or the equivalent - even though most of them are Protestant rightwingnuts.
John Cornyn, who's from Texas, and one of the more notorious morons in the Senate, said this (try to control your laughter):
"Governor Palin has quickly emerged as one of the most popular and recognizable faces in the Republican Party, and we are honored to have her deliver the keynote address at the Senate-House dinner. [We've asked her not to wink, though! Nah, he didn't say that.] As a proven leader [note "proven"] in her home state of Alaska, Gov. Palin represents a breath of fresh air from the business-as-usual crowd in Washington, and is one of our party's up-and-coming young governors who will play a critical role in our re-building efforts in the years to come. [Omigod! Breath of fresh air? Please! She's G. W. Bush in a dress, only maybe dumber!] Last fall, she electrified and energized crowds across the country [that's true: millions of people voted for Obama because they were terrified of this wolf-killer from the north!] and we expect she will generate a similar amount of enthusiasm at this spring's dinner."
Heh. Heh. Maybe she will generate "enthusiasm." Unfortunately, what the Republican Party needs is a code of ethics, a concern for the people of the country instead of their corporate benefactors, and some real ideas - cutting taxes for the rich doesn't cut it.
If the Republican Party is putting its hopes on Sarah Palin, a Pentecostal theocrat who believes that this is a Christian country and should be ruled by the laws of the god of the Bible, and who's dumber than a sack of bricks, it is in deep ca-ca.
Of course, Palin would only be a figure-head anyway. She'd be taking orders from Rush Limbaargh!

They will get what they deserve! Maybe she has been reading more and has learned something. Who knows, If they run her and Limbaugh, maybe they will create a new version of their party. I wonder if they will allow media to attend or if she will take questions and actually answer them. Maybe Jon Stewart can attend and ask questions.
