Since news is not happening at all in our country this morning, let’s turn our attention to the East and its Land of the Rising Sun, Japan. We trade with them! And what do we trade? Sexy schoolmarm glasses: “Kazuo Kawasaki, the Japanese designer for Sarah Palin’s glasses, is grateful to the Republican vice presidential candidate for making his product famous although he acknowledged he also likes Democratic presidential hopeful Sen. Barack Obama.” Sarah Palin knows nothing. She’s buying Japanese machinery when we’re at WAR with this very same Japan? [AP]
Her eyes are bridges to nowhere.
Also, a million bucks for a genuine Hatori Hanso would probably be considered a pork-barrel earmark, but she sure could use one.
She should be wearing American glasses anyway. Now the people in Michigan are going to get even more pissed. “Them ‘publicans buy EVERYTHING from the Japs!”
She can see Japan from her tanning salon!
They’re special glasses that give her the sight to see through the lies of our Japanese enemies. They also render her eyes unpokeoutable. Barack Obama’s eyeball fleshmeat can be ripped asunder by the Red Sun menace.

What?! Her glasses were made by a designer?! And a Japanese one at that!!!! I simply assumed that she bought them at the Sunglass Store in the Mall and that they were hand assembled in a Mexican maquiladora by teenage factory girls like every other all-American product.
The truth is soooo suspiciously almost elitist and stuff.
They are naughty glasses worn to trick silly school boys. Bad school boys, Bad!
Today I’m introducing Democrat by Design, the best darn partisan poster project on the web. Every day between now and the election we post a new, free, high res poster for easy download, print and post.

Cotton Hill just rolled over in his grave.
Serolf Divad: That’s ‘Leetist Fer Shur!
Now Kazuo knows how Walt Disney upset was in WW2 when his philosophical enemies put Disney characters on the side of their airplanes. He never did forgive the USAAF and RAF for that.
…of course he supports Obama! Hawaii is closer to Japan than Alaska is, which technically make Barry fluent in Japanese and an expert on Honda’s.
columnv: Remember Attu! Remember Kiska!
AngryBlakGuy: Unfortunately, that also means that Barry can use elitist chop sticks instead of the all-american fork.
I vote for whomever’s Big in Japan, thus my hope for a new Michael Jacksonocracy.
Hunter Gathers: Can he catch a fly with chopsticks? He could totally corner the Karate Kid vote…
Shit. SnowVadge wears the same brand as me.
She’ll probably have every Nippon in Alaska rounded up and delivered to internment camps by this evening….
She obviously believed that the Japanese must make the best eyeglasses in the world by virtue of the fact that they are all so squinty eyed.
She’s just like us…
Lessee … Japanese glasses … probably rose-colored … Tokyo Rose was a Japanese propogandist in WWII … Japan is a short swim to Russia, from which you can walk to Alaska … where Sarah Palin was born … AHA! Sarah Palin (whose name spells “I has ran a lap,” which is Japanese for “I have no idea what I’m doing, ha ha!”), is the secret illegitimate daughter of the Tsar, and a COMMUNIST TRAITOR!! Seize her at once! Burn the witch, yah!
But she still cant ‘see’ the truth.
The light coming into her eyes through the lenses are abnormally bent to the right.
grendel: Not sure, but most of my cracker contemporaries are convinced that the only jobs that Barry’s qualified for are ‘wax the car’ ‘paint the fence’ and ’scrub the floor’.
C’mon. The glasses give her gravitas.
checkonechecktwo: “pork barrel earmarks”?! Are you calling our most illustrious Palin a pig? Sexist bastard.
My instincts tell me that her room smelled like cat piss.
AngryBlakGuy: Yuhhun, but if they’d stop vacationing there, one might be able to get a decent tee time.
Servo: That is gross. It is also probably true.
irisheyes: No, no; I’m just saying you can’t put designer glasses on a pig, wrap it in pretty Japanese tissue paper, and call it Change. The American people are not stupid. They shop at America’s Best, where you get two frames for the price of one, plus a free eye exam.
Palin/Harajuku Girls ‘12!
Sweetfoot: I do like it when Wonkette turns into a forum in which we shamelessly self-promote our own websites by putting links below the comments.

Hmmm…makes sense to me. Here’s are some price estimates.
1. Alaska First pin–made in Japan. $20
2. Glasses made in Japan. $400
3. All Tony Orlando-esque yellow ribbons, car magnets, lapel pins–made in Japan. $1000
4. Flag lapel pins–made in Japan. $2000
Japan never having to bomb us again. Priceless.
You missed the proper end of the quote from the Japanese designer. It is supposed to read:
…Sarah Palin knows nothing.”
The designer is also bad news because he is based in Obama, Japan and therefore a Muzzie terrist.
Sarah Palin is a muslin, yellow-peril-loving terrorista who gazes longingly at Russia every day from her elitist tanning bed.
soytrucknutz: That is change we can believe in!
Speaking of Japan, T-bill yields today fell to their lowest level since Pearl Harbor. Forget about 9/11, what’s happening to our country right now is roughly on a part with Pearl Harbor - according to investors.
Insert random Nintendo joke here. Something abuot balls. Pokaballs or something.
