We can’t give Alaska back, we need the icebacks that we get from Russia and Canadia. ---

I sometimes wonder if some Democratic operation has moles planted in the Palin camp to fake setting up gigs. Would be a hilarious strategy if they could get away with it. ---

The clothes were still sitting in a storage room at the RNC offices, last I heard. Somebody - **Surbey**? - updates that “So when is she giving back the clothes?” thread every three months or so. ---

And, does she think she’s some kind of rock star now, what with missing all her big gigs? Now that you mention it, I’ve noticed that you never see Sarah Palin and Axl Rose in the same picture. ---

> [@lieu](#): > > C’mon now, you’ve got to admit that besides her nasaly voice and lack of political judgement and her self-righteous arrogance and bent ethics compass that she’s probably a lovely woman, eh? I like her hair. I sorta liked her glasses. Too many women don’t want to be seen in their glasses, but I thought hers looked good one her. [QUOTE=projammer] But I’m pretty sure the bump in our national average IQ would be noticable. [/QUOTE] Only if she took all her followers with her. The US population is about 307,246,000. And the republicans got about 59,934,814 popular votes in her VP election. Let’s assume half of those people don’t actually like Pailn, so we reduce the total population by 29,967,407 (and $40,000 dollars worth of empty suits) and assume each of those are worth 80 IQ points…uh and the average IQ of the staying population is 100, so we have 28327207440 potential IQ points divided by the palinless population 277,278,593…uh that brings us up to 102 IQ points per remaining population. Not enough to be really noticeable, I think. But I’d be happy to toss in some of our dumber non-voters to make up the difference. Anybody have the number of the Russian embassy? ---

> [@Never\_Say\_Dice](#): > > Did you see the press White House press conference a couple days ago where they asked if anyone in the White House had a comment on Becks’ problem, what ever that is, and like me they admitted that with everything going on in the world they didn’t follow Beck. If I were press secretary, I’d say “We’re sorry that he’s still Glenn Beck.” Which is why I’m not press secretary. ---

So inquiring minds want to know. Is this like full on exorcist puking, or is it like the puking where you just throw up in the back of your throat? Tell us, does your head spin around when you puke? How does it happen? ---
