There is so much right about that.
Concerning the video: Hell, I wish Sarah Palin's rhetoric was as elegant, precise, clever, and honest as Al Swearengen's (and if that means dropping in a few "c***suckers" here and there, so be it). Too bad she more often ends up sounding like Wu...
(And a very barely related side note: Is there anyone who's actually enjoying True Blood? What a misfire of a show that is.)
Concerning the image (and doing my best to channel my inner Dennis Miller): "Although remaining undecided even up to this late hour, Gralptar the Basilisk finally sided with the republican party after seeing John McCain make an attempt to connect to his often ignored Deep Earth Lizard Clan demographic."
