Poetry by Palin

Some of Sarah Palin’s interview answers have been compared to refrigerator magnet poetry, so Slate writer Hart Seely took her “verbiage” the next natural step. Two examples:

“On Good and Evil”
It is obvious to me
Who the good guys are in this one
And who the bad guys are.
The bad guys are the ones
Who say Israel is a stinking corpse,
And should be wiped off
The face of the earth.

That’s not a good guy.
(To CBS’ Katie Couric, Sept. 25)

“Haiku”
These corporations.
Today it was AIG,
Important call, there.

(To Fox News’ Sean Hannity, Sept. 18)

    This thread you see in quite inane
    It shows the clogs in liberal brains
    Instead of things we know as true
    They ridicule in form, “haiku”

    It sure is great
    Negro that is well spoken
    And clean too! Wow!

    “Verbiage” of Joe Biden

    I would like to challenge those on this thread to write poetry using the positions/words of the candidates instead of the usual exchange of insults.

    “Come and listen to a story about a man named Jed
    A poor mountaineer, barely kept his family fed,
    Then one day he was shootin at some food,
    And up through the ground came a bubblin’ crude.
    Oil that is, black gold, ‘Alaska’ tea”

    Palinator and Gaffman
    Met on the deck.
    Palinator said, “Gaffman,
    Have some moose pie.
    Gaffman said, “Aww,
    What the heck.”

    Palin Haiku sounds like a fun game…

    Our markets need oil first
    I’ll find and bring ‘em to ya
    In what respect, Charlie?

    Why are people acting like no one ever made fun of a politician before???

    Someone wrote a computer program to automatic generate Palin a interview:

    Yes, MonkeyHawk! See what happens when heads are put together, ideas shared?

    We should play that game

    where the first person writes the first line
    and each person adds to the rhyme.

    If Palin is able to survive the bombardment of attacks by the WE Blog and Mainstream Press, it will be a miracle, and a testament to how strong this woman is.

    Feminists won’t celebrate though.

    The Feminists don’t support Palin. Why? Cause she doesn’t support the Liberal Socialist views of the Feminists.

    Thus, Feminism has been exposed as being another arm of the Liberal Socialist Democrats, not supporting women, just supporting Liberal Socialist Democrat women.

    lindalinks55 thinks she’s oh so very clever and cute
    publishing platitudes, sound-bytes, and lies
    spreading propaganda in disguise
    pompous, pungent, poetry
    that is so
    ugly
    those with a brain
    cannot be fooled by her refrain
    of outrageous, sexist, hateful attacks
    intelligent ones see right through lindalinks55
    aghast at the Democrats display of vulgar ugliness

    I caught a few seconds of ‘the other bridge to nowhere’ anyone know about that one. They said it was still ongoing and hadn’t been killed.
    The bridge led to a hunting area and as for businesses, there was one restaurant within 12 miles. And, of course the owner, said ‘well, see it isn’t a bridge to nowhere, you’re here, and this is somewhere’.

    Biden,

    A Senator named Joe,
    often wrong and boy does he blow.

    He calls it like it is, but to his chagrin,
    Obama shakes his head, and says
    “Oh no Joe! Not again!”

    Come tonight, the mean Joe will show up
    And debate a gal named Sarah Palin,
    Old Joe is gonna look stupid and will be a failin’

    That’s all, no Joe for V.P. and that’s funny,
    Cause he’s wasting 100’s of million in Obama contributed money.

    I was one of five
    all left wing loons
    voting against that pipeline
    because the Caribou don’t need oil
    Alaska has no interest in economic development

    Today the Caribou thrive
    more than before
    of all things a woman
    so out of place
    actually thinks she should be VP

    We need to go back
    put the Caribou were we found them
    and the women too
    Both belong in the kitchen
    Of my good boys club

    They say in the Land of the Midnight Sun
    That bumpin’ uglies is the only fun
    For a hockey mom whose hockey daughter
    Gets down with a stud on frozen water.

    And even though she gave her word
    and got the t-shirt “Stop at 3rd”
    Now Hockey Mom will be a Gram.
    It weren’t incest; who gives a damn?

    Thanks beber. Of course this was the purpose of my post, to show how completely childish this thread is in attacking Palin. Although it seems par for the course for the WE.

    I still think Mason Williams described her best:
    “Them Moose Goosers
    by Mason Williams

    How about Them Moose Goosers,
    Ain’t they recluse?
    Up in them boondocks,
    Goosin’ them moose.

    Goosin’ them huge moose,
    Goosin’ them tiny,
    Goosin’ them meadow-moose
    In they hiney.

    Look at Them Moose Goosers,
    Ain’t they dumb?
    Some use an umbrella,
    Some use a thumb.

    Them obtuse Moose Goosers,
    Sneakin’ through the woods,
    Pokin’ them snoozy moose
    In they goods.

    How to be a Moose Gooser?
    It’ll turn ye puce.
    Gitchy gooser loose and
    Rouse a drowsy moose

    Palin loved the bridge
    nowhere is where it would go
    Until she saw political hay to be made
    And then she wanted it no mo’.

    The Palinator turned to Gaffman and said, “We really should do this, the fate of the free world rests on our shoulders, ya.”

    Gaffman replied, “I know. This is too big to just stand around eating Moose pie. If we could…..”

    “Shut up, mouthy.” said the Palinator.

    Together, they jumped on their custom OCR built Lipstick Hog, The Palinator in the drivers seat, Gaffman holding tightly behind.

    The Palinator pressed the starter switch, elbowed Gaffman in the chest, and said, “Watch those hands, buddy; I’m a spoken for woman.”

    “My bad,” said Gaffman. “For a minute there I thought you were Hillary.”

    “Hummpphhh,” said the Palinator. And with that they were off, accelerating at a rapid clip.

    Meanwhile, back about a mile, crowded into a Yugo missing both bumpers, sat Franklin, Regular, Max and two chicks from “thebitchgirls.com blog.

    “Where are they going?” asked Max.

    “They are headed south by southwest on that unmarked road. At the RATE they are going, and being as their gas tank HOLDS three and one third gallons of gas, with two people totaling 278.6 lbs, they will be able to travel EXACTLY 253.7 miles prior to running out of gas.” Stated Franklin

    At which point, Regular turned and beat the crap out of Franklin. Max and his dogs took the two chicks from “thebitchgirls.com” blog out onto the tundra and a good time was had by all.

    THE END

    Sarah gets her chance to tonight
    To moot the goofs borne of stage fright
    She needs to be real good, no great
    This target of the left’s smug hate

    She bore it all with grace and pluck
    She faced it down, she did not duck
    I think she’ll do fine, time will tell
    If she quiets the crowd and rings the bell
