Forget Palin a minute...

Am I the only one who thinks it's more than a little creepy for a man to paint his grown daughter in the nude?

Her last tweet: "I kind of like "SHAZAM! PALIN STYLE!" for my debate catch phrase. What do you think?"

this is hilarious and briefer than the interview response generator.

Nude Palin painting

"Okay, sweetie, I'm just going to need you to pose there naked with that gun for about a week. Daddy needs to make sure he gets the details of your genitalia just right. What? Oh, no, honey, you see, Daddy needs to be naked too if he wants this painting to turn out right..."

Seriously, WTF!?!?! Listen, I could draw an anatomically accurate nude female form when I was fourteen, even though I'd never seen one in real life, so I'm pretty sure Daddy didn't really need his bartending daughter to pose nude in order to do a nude Palin painting. So seriously, what gives?

Gov Palin: Internet sensation

Her whole reason that she has become this political meteor was that a few neocon cubicle dwellers(bloggers) thought she was a dream girl. Somehow her cult of popularity grew way out of proportion to what she's capable to deliver. Eventually, we all have to wake up even from the most pleasant dreams. I can't wait for Friday's debates.

music track with Palin samples and hip hop beats

Another fine example of humorous Palin-related pop culture processing can be found in the music track "Redheaded Sasquatch For Jesus," which uses samples of Palin backed by hip hop beats.

The mp3 can be found at kumquatpower dot com.

palin

My favorite is still the "Palin is a post turtle" joke.

You're driving down a country road. You see a turtle atop a fence post. Right away you know it didn't get up there by itself, it doesn't belong there, it doesn't have any idea what to do while it is up there, and you wonder what dumbass put it there in the first place.

@ALG2008

I agree about the Palin vlogs -- I even recommended it to a freaked-out advice seeker to Cary Tennis' column. She's 100 times funnier than Tina Fey.

I hope Colbert interviews her soon (as Palin, natch)!!

Forget the jokes. Palin is toast!

There's a bipartisan-ordered, legislative investigator's report due on 10/10 regarding Palin's vendetta against her sister's ex-spouse, an Alaska state trooper. The governor, her staff and her appointed attorney general have stonewalled the investigation. Despite that, the investigator has discovered that the governor and her husband visited with the state's workers' comp insurance adjuster owner to get her company to deny a legitimate claim filed by the ex. The company was threatened by them with losing the sole provider state contract. The owner capitulated and won the contract renewal despite not being low bidder.

Here's an small excerpt from the story:

Palin Implicated By Witness in ‘Troopergate’ Probe

By Jason Leopold

The Public Record

Monday, September 29, 2008

An Alaska woman who owns a company that processes workers’ compensation claims in the state has told an independent investigator that she was urged by the office of Gov. Sarah Palin to deny a benefits claim for Palin’s ex brother-in-law, a state trooper who was involved in an ugly divorce and child custody dispute with Palin’s sister, despite evidence that the claim appeared to be legitimate, according to state officials who were briefed about the conversation.

Murlene Wilkes, the proprietor of Harbor Adjustment Service in Anchorage, had originally denied that she was pressured by Gov. Palin’s office to deny state trooper Mike Wooten’s claim for workers compensation benefits.

But Wilkes changed her story two weeks ago when she was subpoenaed by Steven Branchflower, the former federal prosecutor who was appointed in July to probe allegations Gov. Palin, Republican presidential candidate John McCain’s running mate, abused her office by abruptly ousting Public Safety Commissioner Walt Monegan, state officials knowledgeable about her conversation with Branchflower said.

Monegan has said he felt pressured by Gov. Palin, her husband, Todd, and several of her aides to fire Wooten. Branchflower’s investigation centers on whether Palin fired Monegan because he refused to fire Wooten.
