Have you heard Sarah Palin’s new zeitgeisty bon mot? It’s “Yes, We Can!” This is exactly how she concluded a recent column in the National Review about drilling and how it’s important that it happens constantly, in every imaginable place. “Alternative sources of energy are part of the answer, but only part. There’s no getting around the fact that we still need to ‘drill, baby, drill!’ And if those in D.C. say otherwise, we need to tell them: ‘Yes, we can!’” Oh god this is probably going to actually work for her, isn’t it? [POLITICO]
Sarah Palin Is Just Going To Help Herself To ‘Yes, We Can!’ Now That Obama’s Done With It

No, You Can’t!
Good god that picture.
Newell, Juli is being mean to my eyes.
Imitation is the sincerest form of idiotic cluelessness.
Yes, we oil can. God, she’s still an oil company lobbyist.
It’s kind of fun watching her do this and realizing that if she was still governor she’d be able to weild some power and influence. Now, however, she twits impotently from some moss-lined hibernarium on the North Slope. You go, you ineffectual little half-termer, you!
what a coincidence, sarah! Yes, I would like to drill your baby in the can! Bristol. I love you Bristol!
I wouldn’t drill her with Rush Limbaugh’s shriveled bit.
French saloon girls the world over add their voices to Palin’s call for action…”Yes, we can-can!”
Stupid attention whore is stupid.
[re=437164]magic titty[/re]: That image is very disturbing. I wish you’d have chosen something else. I realize that it’s a shameful part of American history that we should never forget, but it’s too much.
“A ‘NO’ uttered from deepest conviction is better and greater than a ‘YES’ merely uttered to please, or what is worse, to avoid trouble.”

Get that hag some face powder.
[re=437184]Min[/re]: Ooo-la-la…le win!
Tippecanoe and Tyler too hasn’t been used for a while. Maybe she can use that as well.
[re=437181]Crank Tango[/re]: I would love to drill Sarahbou and Bristol in every imaginable place.
Is that Madame Tussaud’s take on Caribou Barbie?
Her cheeks look like they’ve been simonized.
She followed up by saying “a chicken in every pot because I like Ike; also, don’t stop thinking about tomorrow.”
I still fail to see how you all find this woman so attractive. Guys are seriously weird sometimes.
[re=437168]TGY[/re]: Win.
Can we see a picture of her boobies reading the bible?
Sarah Palin is taking “sloppy seconds” on “Yes we can!”? Don’t worry, “Help Is On The Way” — with a handiwipe.
I like it how she underlines the idiocy of her assertions by reminding us of how she got ground into paste last November. It’s…poetry.
[re=437174]WhatTheHeck[/re]: Shill, baby, shill!
Well, this should work out pretty well for unemployed Sarah. The oil industry is always ready to welcome a
perkyandshinynewcheerleader.[re=437198]Cape Clod[/re]: “Forty Acres and a Mule!!”
Ask not what…America is a shining city upon a…I feel your…Goddammit! Being an unemployed stupid spoiled whore is hard, Todd.
This strategy worked well for Bill Gates, with DOS and Windows.

baby-drilling is against the law, even in alaska.
Sarah P.: Yes we can! Yes we can!
Balloon Barf Boy: [insert Today show reaction here]
Oh, give her a break. She’s way too busy not governing to proof-read her ghost writer’s words before they go to print.
[re=437199]eclecticbrotha[/re]: offshore even!
In Sarah’s presence, we are all little six-year old balloon boys. Soaring above the landscape in our minds, but stuck in a dusty old attic in reality.
I think her slogan should be, “It’s twue! It’s TWUE!”
I thought she made money with her fake book- can’t she afford to keep her hair out of her eyes?
She stole it from Bob the Builder.

Her motto was originally “Work Brings Freedom”, but there were copyright problems.
[re=437218]germansteel[/re]: I now haz sad.
Perhaps it’s just a slightly edited version of, “Yes, we [have gigantic] can[s that are even bigger than Meghan McCain's, that trampy publicity whore]!”
Nice alt text, but why the booger?
Other possible retreads:
“54-40 or Fight!” (Polk)
“Who is James K. Polk?” (Clay)
My favorite:
“Blaine Blaine James G. Blaine The Continental Liar from the State of Maine!” (Grover Cleveland)
[re=437189]user-of-owls[/re]: yes. perfect usage of a wonkette meme
“Like a hit count-driven moth to a very stupid flame.”
“And if those Washington bureaucrats don’t ‘get ‘r done,’ then folks, we need to ask the question ‘where’s the beef?’ because—”
(Mrs. Palin The Governor then collapsed from finger-quote exhaustion.)
Show us your boogers!
Nobody fucking cares what this white trash avatar says or does.
Here’s something new and novel for Dame Palin to use: “Hey America, go foxtrot yourself! For the troops! You betcha, also.”
“Ma, Ma, where is Pa? Gone to the White House, Ha, Ha, Ha!” (James G. Blaine)
[re=437236]sati demise[/re]: I figured if shameless recycling is good enough for her…
[re=437234]proudgrampa[/re]:
“Pa, Pa, where’s my Ma? Not in the White House, ha ha ha!” (Trig Palin)
[re=437232]the problem child[/re]: Hotel Foxtrotting Charlie, thats one Foxtrotting huge booger, alright.
All the way with el BJ!
[re=437246]user-of-owls[/re]: Excellent!
First time I ever heard of capitalizing on somebody else’s slogan was way back in 1863, when General Hooker to make ready to go get Lee had everybody saying “Ready now, General!” Boy, were they ready! And all the ladies of the evening took to leaning out them upper windows and yelling at stray troops, “Ready now, General!” Worked for them. That’s how they became known as “hookers.”
And, boy, did General Hooker ever get Lee. Too much. That’s why you know more a General Grant and not so much Hooker.
[re=437198]Cape Clod[/re]: How about “Fifty-Four Forty or Fight!” about the Brooks Range?
It’s O.K. Barry just borrowed it from Bob the Builder, and it seems as if he’s done with it anyway.
Have fun, sugartits!
[re=437203]Terry[/re]: Not me, lady. I also fail to detect the charm. I think you need to be of the nature of the Pox Noise crowd.
maybe she was trying to be witty…
ok — never mind — i forgot we were talking about sarah palin here!
Madly about Adlai!
[re=437224]S.Luggo[/re]: I think her final bumpkin sticker is “Ignorance is Strength.”
Sarah Palin is fired up and ready to go!
[re=437203]Terry[/re]: Who all?
[re=437254]BeWoot[/re]: Perfecto.
“Just do it!” would have been better. She needs a new word writer person.
Win with Wilkie!
[re=437203]Terry[/re]: You have to understand the difference between true, Mark-Sanford-level adoration of a woman’s tremaculous kesobs, and The Hate Fuck®, a tool for debasing the fuckee and ennobling the fucker. Ever watch that “Oz” series on HBO?
I think she got confused when, upon traveling with WALNUTS! in the STE and asking “Are we there yet?” every five minutes, he would turn around and scream “Yes, you cunt!”
“Less thinking, Feels great”.
It would be cool if she recycled Yoyodyne blurbs:
The future begins tomorrow!
America: A growing excited country!
Sarah looks like she rubbed against Oily Taintz in that pic.
[re=437220]finallyhappy[/re]:
Seriously! Why hasn’t she taught Piper to trim her bangs??!!
how soon can we expect the reimagining of annie get your gun?
She’s got to do better than this. Attention whores all over the country are stepping up their game. She’s probably kicking herself today because she never thought about putting Trig in a balloon.
Until she adapts De Colores as the new RepubiChristian Anthem, I’m not impressed.
No matter what tragedy befalls, all it takes to lift my spirits is a bit on wonkette about Sarah Palin and the 100+ comments that follow.
Wonkette rocks! And its Readers/Commenters. Also.
[re=437261]Bowdoin[/re]: Wikipedia says that there is an equestrian statue of General Hooker outside the Massachusetts State House. I know where I’m going as soon as it stops fucking snowing up here.
Does anyone else ever try to imagine what it’s like at the other of of a Wonkette-driven internet flash mob? I’m trying picture this little site admin at, oh say, http://www.presidentsusa.net, sitting around all Maytag repairman-like when *boom* the site just collapses under the weight of a thousand commenter locusts.
Ok, it’s probably just me.
[re=437184]Min[/re]: Not to mention the Pointer Sisters at their awesome early-70s best.
[re=437314]Nigerian Business Executive[/re]: My poor link didn’t work. Click it. You won’t regret it: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7qHAZ25HYqU
Silly wingnut! Recycling is for bong-sucking hippy lesbian socialists!
With a little more straightforward honesty (yes, I’m dream-posting here) & her own way-kewl catchphrase, this could’ve been so much better.
“Can we rape & pillage pristine habitats even more ruthlessly than ever before?
You betcha!”
[re=437312]user-of-owls[/re]: Huh? That site has a comment option?
Poor Repugs. All they’re trying to do is match demmycrats one-for-one. Palin is supposed to be some sort of attractive female candidate/torch bearer, Bobby Jindal is supposed to be some sort of lanky, brown skinned messiah, GOP dot com is supposed to be some sort of “web site,” Michael Steele is supposed to be some sort of hip, street-wise…oh forget it. Just forget it. They are scorn-worthy fools.
[re=437318]Nigerian Business Executive[/re]: that video was DY-NO-MITE!!!
Jesus – mug of oil, anyone?
Sarah looks like she’s on the deadass end of a coke binge in that photo. Super sexy! Thanks for sharing.
[re=437333]Rumproast[/re]: Plus you can see the teensy-weensy little twin teleprompterz she wears at all times. To avoid mis-speaking.
I am going to copyright The only thing we have to fear is cheap gas itself before this crazy witch thinks of it.
Has the chillbilly been bobbing for fried shrimp or something? No need to drill baby drill, just harvest some of the oil from her face.
Ewwe. Does she always look so greasy, and pencil-lipped, too, also, cross-eyed? Also, too?
I say, if you are going to fuck your husband’s best friend and business partner, AT LEAST sop up some of that freakin’ oil, cowgirl!
Haven’t several people already tried this, including Hilary Clinton?
No one can make those words as magical as President Obama can.
Soon, she’ll be living under the shadow of Levi’s cock….FOREVER!!
Yes we can, also!
Who is this ‘we’ she is talkin’ ’bout?
please, dear, I know your 15 minutes of fame were not enough for you, but ‘we’ are sooo over you. Yes we are!
[re=437370]WadISay[/re]: Thereby guaranteeing that she plagiarizes it.
Terry:
I think it’s that she comes pre-oiled. But who says only guys (seriously weird or otherwise) find her attractive?
Well, thinkin’ about it…Sarah has ALWAYS greased the wheels of progress with her face and mouth. She greased Todd that way. she greased the producer, at that pissy-ant station that she sportscasted for in Alaska, Poor guy. She greased Todd’s best-friend that way. Dollars to doughnuts, she greased every poor guy in Idaho, Alaska, and Hawaii, and the McCain camp that way. Showing up to the door in a towel at the RNC??? Mistake? No choice? phhhlllllaaghhhh. Right.
Sarah Yes we can scratch from the GILF list for that photo.
But beyond my rants, since our Senaors and Congressmen (and women) are whoring themselves out to insurance companies and banks, maybe it isn’t so bad to have an Alaskan-snowbilly whore. How could we do worse? I mean, I hate her guts! But, having said that, I know that we all live with a bunch of insurance whore, banking whores, etc., on capitol hill, so how could snowbilly be any worse?
She’s change we cunt believe in.
[re=437328]RoscoePColtraine[/re]: I really like how they attempted to spotlight the phillandering perjuror in the White House with – Gingrich?
That would be as appealing as Leonard Nimoy singing “Da Butt.” Just not the same.
Setting aside the natural comedy of SP saying “drill, baby, drill” — whatever the context — should we just use up all the oil as soon as possible or what?
I’m reminded of the movie “Baby Boom” where Diane Keaton’s lead character, when informed that her well had run dry, answered “Well, that’s OK. I’ll just use the hose at the house to fill it up again!”
I’m sure SP thinks oil this way, if she thought about it at all. The long-range answer is, of course, some other renewable forms of energy — preferably the ones with the least hidden costs or consequences. But, darn it, oil is just so conveniently right here right now, and she can see it from her house, so let’s not worry about the pesky facts like all the oil will be gone in 50 or 100 years at this rate.
[re=437608]Dangerous[/re]: She figures Jesus will be here soon so no worries.
[re=437608]Dangerous[/re]:
I’m waiting for some crazy proposal to tap the liquid hydrocarbons on Saturn’s moon, Titan. Because, y’know, conservation simply doesn’t work. What good are TruckNutz if you can’t drive a huge Ford Stupid Duty pickup?
Palin steals Viagra Slogans;
10. Viagra, it’s “Whaazzzzzzzzz up, Dog!”
9. Viagra, the quicker pecker upper
8. Viagra, like a rock
7. Viagra, when it absolutely, positively has to be there tonight
6. Viagra, be all that you can be
5. Viagra, reach out and touch someone
4. Viagra, strong enough for a man, but made for a woman!
3. Viagra, tastes great……more filling
2. Viagra, we bring good things to life
1.This is your thingy…..this is your thingy on drugs. Any questions? CALL 1-800-RUSSIANPORNSTICK
SI SE PUTA
SI SE PUTA!!
Seriously though, is she saying we should drill in the U.S. because countries with slacker environmental policies drill in their land? She must be part of the Kay Hutchinson school spine-tingly, ass-backwards political messaging.
[re=437280]WarAndG[/re]: I, too, wish she would have used Just Do It. Nike would care enough to have their lawyers relieve her of that multi-million dollar advance.
This pic makes her look more than her usual stupid.
[re=437234]proudgrampa[/re]: “Ma? Ma” Where’s my Pa?”
“Sitting in the White House. Ha! Ha! HA!”
[re=437261]Bowdoin[/re]: Gen. Pope announced (among other things) that henceforth his headquarters would be in his saddle. After Gen. Lee kicked his ass a few times, wags suggested his headquarters were where his hindquarters belonged.
Shrill, Baby. Shrill!
[re=437635]Can O Whoopass[/re]: She did name her new organization “stand up for america”, so the viagra references are right on target.
SP TO bALLOON dAD…”WHERE ARE THE KIDS?’
The Alaska Fund Trust, the official website for the Governor Sarah Palin legal expense fund.
She has done so much for Wonkette, the least Wonkette can do is keep her out of jail.
[re=438061]Paul Tardy[/re]: Hey Paul, how about a big steaming mug of Fuck Off.
[re=437199]eclecticbrotha[/re]: “would love to drill Sarahbou and Bristol in every imaginable place.” Try Las Vegas. Cheap air fare.
Schill baby Schill!
Sarah is a whore for big oil.
It’s already been noted by other Wonketteers, but that photo is a shocker. If I was that photographer, and I received an invitation to do a photoshoot at her turkey farm, I’d be getting a ‘previous engagement’ real quick…
