Newt and Mooselini in cahoots? OH, GOODIE!

The Return Of Queen Esther


"What we do know, I think, is that Newt will not bow out if he loses Florida and may go on a scorched earth Palinite crusade to stop Mitt on Super Tuesday. And what we also know is that Palin is fanning the flames. If Newt were to do better than expected in Florida, her clout as a king-maker soars. And the chance that she would lead a Tea Party revolt at the Convention grows."

I mean what if Newt and Romney are so damaged by the end of this that neither has a chance. Could Queen Esther return?

are gettin' it on!

It's possible... and sufficiently gag-inducing to us that we know the teabaggers would love it.

And for you budding cartoonists...?

What better use for your god-given talents?

(warning: anyone who loves the English language should look away now. Palin brutally butchers it, and holds its entrails up for the cameras)

In her latest appearance, Palin stated: “Look at Newt Gingrich, what’s going on with him via the establishment’s attacks,” she said, though the original question was about Ron Paul. “They’re trying to crucify this man and rewrite history and rewrite what it is that he has stood for all these years.”

Palin then called conservative writer Peggy Noonan “hypocritical” for recently calling Gingrich an “angry little attack muffin.”

“They maybe subscribe such characterization of Newt via words like that, but they don’t subscribe those to say Mitt Romney when he or his surrogates do the same thing,” she said. “That’s that typical hypocrisy stuff in the media that I’ve lived with over a couple of decades in the political arena. So I’m used to it.”

“But in order to help educate the rest of the American public, I’ll articulate that it is hypocritical of the media to subscribe to one candidate and not another, that kind of angry attack muffin verbiage to one and not the other.”

Palin offers "to help educate the rest of the American public". How the hell did that woman get a degree in "communications with an emphasis in journalism "?
