WASILLA, AK — “It’s almost as famous as her kids, Trig, Trip, Track, Trop, Truck and Troop, or whatever their names are,” said Caroline Marmer, on vacation from Detroit. “It’s all everyone’s talking about.” What Marmer and everyone in town are talking about is Sarah Palin’s new fence. The subject even came up in President Barak Obama’s White House press conference about the Gulf oil spill. A reporter asked the president if he’d consider asking the company that erected Palin’s fence to assist in finding a solution to plugging BP’s leaking oil well. “They put it up pretty darn fast,” said the reporter, referring to the fence builder. “I know,” said the president. “Did you see that fence? From the photos I saw, it looked like it wasn’t flush to the ground. If we want half-assed jobs done, BP’s got plenty of people who can do that. Didn’t I read somewhere on the Internet that the Wasillia Police Department was investigating if the fence contractor was drunk? I don’t know if that was before, during or after his work” The Wasillia Police Department said an inquiry was made about “strange goings on a the Palin estate’ but, the police said, “it was no stranger than usual.” The rumor going through town now is that the Palin’s fence contractor is the same company that was slated to build — and had in fact come up with the idea of — the infamous “Bridge to Nowhere,” a proposed bridge to replace the ferry that currently connects the town of Ketchikan, Alaska with Gravina Island, an island which contains the Ketchikan International Airport as well as 50 residents. As governor, Palin had in 2006 enthusiastically supported the $398 million boondoggle. Now the firm that was to build the “Nowhere” bridge has built Palin a 14-foot high, cedar-colored fence that in places doesn’t touch the ground. “It doesn’t say much about Palin’s judgment,” said the vacationing Caroline Marmer, “but then I guess no one has ever accused her of getting too many gold stars when it comes to matters of good judgment.”

Can you believe all the diseased, soap opera mentalities looking for any stupid distraction to keep themselves from having to confront the reality of the day? Are these people all insane or just scared into some psychotic stupor by the real problems we face today, so much so that the seek relief of that fear in some trivial nonsense? Not that long ago, such people were given living accommodations in the big brick building with rooms that had padded walls.
Palin is being presented as a worthy candidate for presidency by any number of media outlets and political orgs. And the 2012 pres campaign season seems to have started early. Now is the time to assess a candidate's ability to make decisions, not after the elections.
Palin is superior to Obama in everything. Obama has commited an impeachable offense and needs to be removed from office.
You and Goldi-lox think alike. Yesterday Goldi said online that she hoped McCain would be elected and then die...in...office from that melanoma cancer so Palin would take over. I'm no Palin fan so we'll just leave it at that.
