Michael Palin for President!
“Bugger, someone beat me to the idea” I was musing to myself - as I’m wont to do from time to time (usually while putting out the washing or feeding the cat) ‘wouldn’t it be great if the republican candidate for the next US Vice President was Michael Palin’s niece or something?’ and then, ‘what if he could become PRESIDENT?’
He could convince her to institute a Ministry of Silly Walks or use his influence to inform her that Afghanistan isn’t in Russia (“They are also building schools for the Afghan children so that there is hope and opportunity in our neighboring country of Afghanistan.” Sarah Palin speaking at a fund raiser in San Fransisco on Oct 5th) and that being able to SEE a country doesn’t actually give her credentials in foreign policy (“They’re our next door neighbors and you can actually see Russia from land here in Alaska, from an island in Alaska.” –Sarah Palin, on her foreign policy insights into Russia, ABC News interview, Sept. 11).
As has been pointed out, if McCain gets into the Oval Office and then has a coronary the most powerful woman in the world would then be this bible-thumping ‘hockey mom’. Well, they had a B Grade actor in the While House… so why not? If those yanks in the know reckon the US is becoming more ‘dumbed down’ with each new generation - they ain’t seen nuthin yet! Within a decade or three there could be no scientists or universities (except those dedicated to the study of creation ’science’) left in the whole goddamn country…
Anyway, as I said, someone beat me to it already - bugger.
