Sarah Palin said something
and what she said was sensational
and it was about
President Obama's failings
as a leader
and who should care
since she's just a quitter
who can't settle graciously
for living under Obama's
race-baiting socialist rule
and she is ageless and perfect
in every picture
which is actually bad
because a politician's job
when done with a measure of nuance
not typically found
in a fascist
(same difference
you elitist) dictatorship
is very hard
on the hair and complexion.
She said "Well if I
were in charge
they would know
that waterboarding
is how we’d baptize terrorists"
a statement that
is accidentally brilliant
in that it just may settle
the debate
between so-called "secular progressives"
and so-called "traditionalists"
(thank you Bill O'Reilly)
which is "Is Sarah Palin
an affront
to basic human decency?"
