From a wannabe Alaskan author, here’s a portion of a poem inspired by – you guessed it – our fair governor. The poem was posted on a website called TeamSarah.org, a hang-out for Obama-haters and Sarah-lovers.
“We are the people that don’t watch the news,
except for FOX.
We are the people that even after the election,
are wearing buttons.
We are the people that can watch youtube videos of Sarah,
and never get tired of them.
We are the people that have Sarah Palin ringtones,
making our liberal friends uncomfortable.
We are the people that are thinking about moving to Alaska,
just to be closer to Sarah to protect her from the smears.”
I don’t know about you, but I find those last lines truly frightening. If you’re a glutton for punishment, you can read the entire poem in the Alaska Dispatch article “Team Sarah out for Blood.” Be warned: much of the chat quoted in the article is exponentially more disturbing than this doggerel.
