McClueless Old Man Selects Pepperpot For His Veep

So Johnathon Sidney McCain The Third (esquire)’s handlers have selected his vice presidential running mate. I’m not sure how they convinced Michael Palin to come out of retirement, and start wearing women’s clothing again:

Mrs. Inexperience and her naughty bits

What’s that? It’s Sarah Palin, corrupt anti-choice creationist Republican’t from Alaska who said she didn’t want the job? Who has even less of a clue about foreign policy, economics, federal politics, and governing more than a small town than Johnathon Sidney McCain the Third (esquire) claims his presidential opponent has?

Look for a shriller, less-coherent version of the Monty Python Pepperpots in the next set of Gramps Simpson for PrezNit commercials, even now being hastily cobbled together in Dick Cheney’s Secret Underground Bunker. Coming soon to invade your living room!

Big time props to commenter Quaker in a Basement for imbedding this in one of Oliver Willis’ posts so’s I could show it to you!

Update: Our good friend Tild has provided a new campaign button for the occasion:

    Hateful, completely tasteless.

    She hasn’t been indicted.

    And so she doesn’t think that fetuses should be terminated. Women’s “rights”? Please. I want to shoot heroin with my body, why can’t IIIIII IIIII III do it? What about the baby?

    And she’s for MORE information in school, not less.

    It’s clear she’s pretty practical, sans the principled moral part. Heck, she’s not even anti-gay, and has what, the same positions as Obama?

    She overthrew the corrupt Republican establishment, made sure that a 1700 natural gas pipeline was done to ensure energy needs.

    Get real.

    Hateful, completely tasteless.

    As opposed to the stuff the Republican’ts have been doing this year? Your selective outrage is showing…

    She hasn’t been indicted.

    Neither has Obama. Yet we still hear about Rezko ad nauseum.

    Ladies and gentlemen, if you ever thought hypocrisy was dead among the Republican’ts, here’s some evidence to the contrary…

    And so she doesn’t think that fetuses should be terminated. Women’s “rights”? Please. I want to shoot heroin with my body, why can’t IIIIII IIIII III do it? What about the baby?

    This message brought to you by the men who want to control women’s wombs.

    Womens’ rights? Please!

    And she’s for MORE information in school, not less.

    Incorrect - she’s for more religiously insane nonsense to be treated as if it has any bearing on reality in the schools. I’m surprised she hasn’t asked for alchemy and astrology classes, too…

    It’s clear she’s pretty practical, sans the principled moral part. Heck, she’s not even anti-gay, and has what, the same positions as Obama?

    It’s clear that not a heck of a lot is known about her. Nice try to give her some credibility by pointing out how much Republican’ts want people to think she has the same positions as Obama.

    I certainly would agree that she appears to have a lack of principles and morals, though…

    She overthrew the corrupt Republican establishment, made sure that a 1700 natural gas pipeline was done to ensure energy needs.

    And then installed her own corrupt Republican’t establishment in its’ place. Funny how she never questioned Senator Intertubes corruption and got his support when she got ‘elected’.

    Get real.

    Says the Republican’t Putsch fellator. What color is the sky in your world?
