She can see Russia from her house!
Ha ha, here is the latest New Yorker cover, which proves Sarah Palin is an idiot. Tina Fey should get royalties. Speaking of New Yorkers, did you people know you can get your picture taken with Palin and some fake dead thing? [New Yorker]

Hey, stop being so sexist. Haven’t you heard? Sarah Palin went down to teh UN a few days ago and spent the afternoon shaking hands with a bunch of world leaders, so she’s got tons of foreign policy experience, now.

Texan Bulldoggette September 29, 2008 at 12:40 pm

Where are the pictures of dead wolves, clubbed seals & dying polar bears? And why is the ground so verdant looking??

YES! I have a picture of myself with that Palin stuffed moose set up. Kind of wish I had thought to send that tip in myself…

Norbert September 29, 2008 at 12:42 pm

interesting that her power suit is the same colour as Putin’s looming socialist scalp. maybe Palin is the Anti-Christ.

erymanthian bore September 29, 2008 at 12:44 pm

Do not mock her! If you look carefully just over the ‘u’ in Roosia, you kin see Pootin rearin his ugly head. Not to mention the FOUR HORSEMEN OF THE APOCAWITCH!

Obv. fake. Where is Putin’s rearing head?

AngryBlakGuy September 29, 2008 at 12:47 pm

…I guess that is the reason why she doesn’t care if all the glaciers melt, because they obscure her view of Russia.

The image is dead!

If it weren’t for brave Alaskans like Gov. Palin those damn Russkies you be swarming all over the place. The Bering Straight must be guarded 24 hours a day with hunting rifles and sled dogs lest the red menace overwhelm us. Eternal vigilance is the price of freedom!

Hedley Lamar September 29, 2008 at 12:50 pm

I call BS. She never said you needed binoculars.

grendel September 29, 2008 at 12:51 pm

[re=113492]JadedDIssonance[/re]: no, political cartoonists are just notoriously bad at drawing ears.

[re=113478]Serolf Divad[/re]: Palin’s secret power is learning by Osmosis. Not only does she know all about foreign policy, she also knows where Osama Bin Laden is hiding and will be hauling in his bloody carcass as a late October surprise, just in time to sweep them into office (and me into Brasil).

Gazing from the Governor’s Double-Wide, she can see Russia, Jesusland, and Other.

Miller September 29, 2008 at 12:57 pm

Sarah Palin is always ready, always on call, to defend our nation in case Putin comes over the hill with a knife in his teeth and ill intentions towards America. That’s why they put her on the fourth floor, so she has a clear sight line for her sniper rifle…..to keep us safe for another day.

Varchar September 29, 2008 at 12:58 pm

Why does she stop at Russia? Palin probably thinks the Earth is flat, so shouldn’t she be bragging about being able to see every single nation in the entire world?

Sarah Palin is the All-American Girl.

Brain like an Alabama preacher, attitude of a Texas oil millionaire, voice like a Wisconsin cattle farmer, personal style of a New Jersey mall mom

[re=113535]bhosp[/re]: According to Einstein, if she got a big enough pair of binoculars, she could see far enough out of her window to glimpse Jesus’ cave man army riding dinosaurs.

Am I the only one who can’t see the picture of the photo? No biggy, but maybe the photo went down the wrong tube?

Not sure that I want to be photographed standing near a sleeping bag filled with stinking old man parts. Anyway, Cindy eventually will wonder where she misplaced him and Palin will then have to give him back.

grendel September 29, 2008 at 1:13 pm

This is really mean because Palin only reads cartoons.

Ah, I got it. The problem is that Palin can see the local dairy queen from her window, and she mistook it for the Kremlin.

When the Russkie nukes come zooming out of the clouds straight at me, I will curse Sarah Palin with my final breath for being a gigantic moron who rose to prominence through needlessly egging on a friendly ally with cocky, passive-aggressive talk

springfield_meltdown September 29, 2008 at 1:20 pm

[re=113542]mattbolt[/re]: To be fair, Palin’s accent is much more intolerable than that of someone from Wisconsin or Minnesota. It is such an exaggerated version of the real accent that it sounds like a mockery of it and makes the natives of those states wince.

The New Yorker pokes fun at Palin for meeting with leaders last week but BHO didn’t meet one until his useless trip to Europe. Who the hell campaigns in Europe when running for President anyway. Loser.

SayItWithWookies September 29, 2008 at 1:41 pm

They say that the Russians are so cold and distant
But Diomedes are a girl’s best friend.
Geography’s nice but it won’t get the ladies
Out of church to vote
For the mean old goat.
Media elites will apply the heats
When you say Pakistan’s just ’round the bend –
But I’ve got a trump card
Becuase it’s in my back yard
Diomedes are a girl’s best friend.

Kamchatka! Vladivostok!
Talk to me Sean Hannity, tell me all about it.

There may be a day when they throw softball questions
That are awful nice –
But get the bailout right
Or else no dice.

McCain is my guy and my profile is high
And if I’m dumb I can always pretend –
But when I open my mouth and things start to go south –
Diomedes are a girl’s best friend.

Carrie_Okie September 29, 2008 at 1:49 pm

Man, here’s a great idea. I want to see her go back in time and debate Dan Quayle.

Yay! Made it…

Thanks for posting brilliant stuff today – saving day!

“`Tis a miracle to me that people don ´t understeeaand that I have a great deal of experience in, ah… foreign policy. See, we have a boarder to this other country, what ´s-it-called, ah,… Ceeanada. And there is Russia and I mean, hey! If I could spit this close!!!”

Makes me feel giddy when I think that in actual fact, Sarah Louise Heathen-Whaleskin might be President one day.

… my, my…

[re=113629]marjon[/re]: Who campaigns in Europe when running for President? Why, John McCain of course, who travelled to London and Paris earlier this year as part of his campaign – in order to schmooze with local leaders and raise some money from ex-pats. What a loser!

Cal Umney September 29, 2008 at 3:05 pm

I keep waiting for some science geek to point out that you need to be at least 100 meters high to see a point on the horizon approximately 28 miles away.

Another fascist/empty assertion by Mooselini.

slavojzizek September 29, 2008 at 3:15 pm

If I understand New Yorker cover humor correctly, this is actually mocking people who think Sarah Palin is ignorant.

mrtrailsafety September 29, 2008 at 5:11 pm

“Red Dawn 2″….hmmm, or after St Paul, is it “Red Don 2″?

SisterTruth September 29, 2008 at 6:35 pm

Sorry, this just isn’t mean enough by a long shot. I’m a black woman who went into melanin shock – that’s right my caramel brown face went marshmallow – when I saw the New Yorker cover for Barack Obama. They must do much better than this if they are going to even come close to how offensive the New Yorker cover was. This woman should have been in a bathing suit with a sash and had fifteen children running around her in order for this to get in the neighborhood of how nasty the other New Yorker cover was. Why do liberals always turn out to be the most racially disappointing???!!!

SisterTruth September 29, 2008 at 6:41 pm

[re=113629]marjon[/re]: You are making just as much sense as your leader, Sarah Palin. NONE.

The Incomparable Tiny Valdez September 29, 2008 at 7:51 pm

The New Yorker covers being relevant aren’t the only things reminding me that these days look a lot like the Depression.
