    Pfff, this got in?

    • Phaelin says:

      I thought it was funny. =/

      • DeathWyrmNexus says:

        I think it is just funny in or out of political context.

        • Klitch says:

          Alright, maybe it just doesn’t fit my sense of humor. Yes, Palin’s a ditz. But this is more of a “meh” than a “lol” for me.

        • herb says:

          I think this lol unfairly stereotypes those of us with A.D.D. It’s not like any of us chose to have this disorder, or that it makes us bad people. Before judging or laughing, just once, I would love if other people–

          Hey! That dog has a mullet!

        • Seth says:

          Exactly. The look on her face is just priceless. It couldn’t be more cartoonish if Chuck Jones himself drew her.

          • ema says:

            I’m sorry, I know it counts for absolutely nothing but I have to say that she cannot take a bad picture, no matter how they try to get her looking ugly they just can’t!

            • Seth says:

              True, but no matter how much they try to make her look smart, they can’t.

              • DeathWyrmNexus says:

                Also true.

              • ck says:

                COURIC: And when it comes to establishing your world view, I was curious, what newspapers and magazines did you regularly read before you were tapped for this — to stay informed and to understand the world?

                PALIN: I’ve read most of them again with a great appreciation for the press, for the media —

                COURIC: But what ones specifically? I’m curious.

                PALIN: Um, all of them, any of them that have been in front of me over all these years.

                COURIC: Can you name any of them?

                PALIN: I have a vast variety of sources where we get our news.

                • Musicmom870 says:

                  OMG. She has a degree in journalism, iirc. Did she really say “I have a vast variety of sources where we get our news”?
                  Y’all realize one of the hallmarks of dominionist churches is to insulate members from other viewpoints by demonizing sources of information (media) not approved by the church. I’d be willing to bet she gets most of her info from AFR (American Family Radio) News.

                  • froofrou says:

                    You’re assuming she’s a member of one of these so-called dominionist churches. As I’ve said before, people have a really narrow view on church-goers as a whole. Baptist, CoC, Methodist, and some of the other mainstream (non-Catholic) denominations are pretty open-minded about where you get your news. They may encourage a certain way, but they certainly don’t throw you out for watching CNN or MSNBC. I’d be willing to bet (and this is purely speculation on my part) that Palin was told not to be specific in order to not seem as though she was promoting any particular place.

                    • Suze says:

                      Baptists are NOT open minded. At least Southern Baptists aren’t.

                    • Seth says:

                      Assuming? No one’s assuming anything. We are stating verifiable facts. The only way you can go on thinking she’s not a total religious extremist is to close your eyes, cover your ears and sing “LALALALA” at the top of your lungs. “So-called dominionist churches?” LOL, that’s what they call themselves! You can try to pretend like Christian fundamentalist zealots don’t want a new American Theocracy, but they do. They really, really want it.

                • jagenigma says:

                  she is so like Miss North Carolina.

            • that is EXACTLY what we need, a pretty idiot as VP, waiting to be the POTUS.

  2. Raneman25 says:

    Palin > Obama

    • Klitch says:

      Now see, I find this joke funnier.

      • Evil Pundit says:

        It’s funny because it’s true.

        • Notexactly says:

          McCain > Palin
          Obama > McCain
          Evil Pundit = Closet Racist

        • Jaxebad says:

          Yeah, lets hijack another comment thread!

          • D'oh says:

            I bet EP is cackeling behind his monitor now screaming “I did it again, the gulible fools! Muahahahhaaaa!!!” :P
            But really, I lolled, only Hillary can pull faces ‘better’ then these.

            • lowly grunt says:

              Yeah, she needs to work on those big smile and point at the shiny thing thing.

              Oh, and Alaska is a microcosm of America, according to Gov. Palin. (liveblogging Couric interview)

              She’s formed a sub cabinet to focus on global warming which she isn’t entirely going to blame on man. Weather patterns are cyclical over history. (must be what got the dinosaurs last time around)

              She is pro-life and has no answer about a 15 year old being raped by her step father. She wants them to have the baby. Choose life despite horrific circumstances. Doesn’t support anyone being in jail because of abortion. Is in favor of birth control. Wants to see fewer and few abortions in this world. RU486? no, doesn’t want that for herself.

              Evolution, taught as accepted principle, won’t deny seeing the hand of God in the creation of earth. Science taught in science class. Not a member of any church.

              Not going to judge gay Americans and the choice they make in their adult lives. Gay friend made a a choice she hasn’t made. (erections the country over deflate)

              • jellybeans says:

                The dinosaurs were here with man according to Palin … ohhh, about 6,000 years ago. Weather changes would have had time to circle back in 6,000 years.

                • lol says:

                  Wait wait wait wait…Palin is a YEC? Seriously?

                  • jellybeans says:

                    according to an interview with a science teacher in Wasilla yes. When she was confronted with questions about fossils she said she had seen dino fossils wih human footprints in them.

                    • lol says:

                      Wow. She’s made of even more fail than I thought.

                    • froofrou says:

                      There is a place in Texas where human tracks are superimposed over dino tracks. Fossilized, mind you.

                      • DeathWyrmNexus says:

                        I remember those, weren’t they tested as well? I could have sworn it was considered a natural illusion and the sediment settled at different times. If I am wrong, by all means, send me a link so I can correct myself.

                        Also, it is unrealistic to think that all the dinosaurs would have died at once. So depending on the species, some might have been around at the same time. Hell, could be giant birds chasing some dudes for all we know.

                        • froofrou says:

                          I can’t give you a link because I dont’ have the time to look for it, hehe. But I will say that I was raised with the knowledge that the thing exists, and I haven’t really done the research lately to see if what I know from my childhood still stands today. I totally believe you’re right about the timing of the dinosaurs. As I’ve said in another thread, it is not unrealistic to believe that dinosaurs and humans coexisted to a certain extent, simply because my Creationist views allow me to believe that the seven days of Creation took a lot longer than most fundamentals are willing to admit.

                        • DeathWyrmNexus says:

                          Ya, we have to remember that the bible was written by men not God. Even if they were inspired it is still secondhand accounts. We can’t even begin to imagine how long a day or a second might be to an infinite being. We only have our frame of reference. It isn’t like God bases his life off the rotation of a planet in reference to a singular star for a time reference like we do.

                          Some of the outer planets have “days” that measure in the months to years because of their rotation speed.

                      • lol says:

                        Do you mean Paluxy? It’s been debunked to the point that even creationists no longer believe it.

        • Seth says:

          I predict that in a few years, when EP goes away to college he will meet a hot liberal girl and completely change his political views. Unfortunately, he will still be a jerk. Later, he will wind up ‘accidentally’ trampled to death by both cops and protesters at a ‘Homes not Guns’ rally.

          • unfortunately for EP, she’ll be opposed to shaving her legs and pits, he’ll be conflicted, yet hot, he’ll have sarah palin flashbacks, but panic because she was a tad bit smarter, wander through the woods lost, get rescued by a St. Benard and become a priest.

            • froofrou says:

              He’ll take a vow of silence that will last 10 years, then will break it by letting a massive fart loose at the dinner table. The other priests will kick him out and he will go on a pilgrimage to find the lost Troll of the Antarctic, only to be kicked in the head by a penguin.

              • Jane St.Clair says:

                This is a facinating bio, please continue. ;)

                • DeathWyrmNexus says:

                  As he reels from the blow issued, the penguin will speak in tongues and advise him of the simpler life of the antarctic and how it is being decimated. EP will be flustered by the sheer gravity of it all and by the fact that not only is the penguin talking in tongues but now it is dancing. He is challenged by the greatest dancing penguin of all who cheats by not dancing, only kicking him in the head again.

                  Brain damage ensues and EP spends the next five years thinking he is the missing Culkin child and McCauley owes him. This will be further exasperated by the fact that he has drifted to South America and lives on the beach wearing only badly cured hides and raped South American penguins who because of their small size, fit just right. ;)

                  • jellybeans says:

                    After many years of pingu abuse EP will be rescued by a Russian freighter ship that drops him off in Alsaka on their way home to Russia. In stopping at an American port the Ruskies will trigger a response from the Palinistas (National Guard) and the ship will be destroyed. EP will be captured and held as a POW by Polar Bears as they use him in negotiations to have themselves declared an endangered species. They will abuse him in much the same way he abused the penguins.

          • Phaelin says:

            Change his political views? So… he’d be… you?

            • OB1 says:

              But smarter.

              • Seth says:

                Anyone who thinks EP is smart, at all, even a little bit, has just gone and proved their lack of critical thinking. A parrot could do EP’s job: repost other people’s ideas. I’ve never seen one single example of EP thinking for himself.

                • ema says:

                  I have many times in the past, lately he just seems to be phoning it in, he could be busy with other things or just lost interest in this site… That I could understand.

        • ck says:

          How are those polls, EP?

  4. FunTimes says:

    I love how there isn’t a single criticism/lampoon of Obama on this entire site. Any caption which features him is neutral (just “funny”) or criticizes the “other” side politically. Bias to the max! Yay!

    • GomerPhyls says:

      Woe-is-me FAIL.

      Here’s a pretty racist low-blow LOL about Obama… There’s more, but I’m not going to bother finding them, because I’m sure you’ll conveniently act like you never saw them so you can keep playing the victim card because “there isn’t a single criticism/lampoon of Obama on this entire site.”

      http://punditkitchen.com/2008/07/31/political-pictures-barack-obama-pick-pocket-reflex/

      • FunTimes says:

        It’s not actually a criticism of him though, and you know it. Nobody is claiming he is pickpocket – that caption actually makes fun of the other guy showing racism – nothing to do with Obama. “Low blow”? Gimme a break.
        Go ahead, try it yourself. Search for Obama and click through a couple pages. The most substantive criticism you will find is calling his ears big. Meanwhile we heap out every kind of practically slanderous shit on the other side – half of it personal attacks.

        Anyone with any objectivity will see the slant right away, but just to make it clear they should probably just remove the logo with both parties, and other parts of the site that make it seem like you can get satire from both angles – because you actually can’t here :-) _

      • ema says:

        Oh please!! That is no criticism of Obama but a stereotype of white people who must ALL think black people will pick their pockets. Just admit it! It’s ok, I have already accepted the fact and so have many of us. This site will never ever lampoon Obama. Quit trying to come up with bogus examples.

    • Eric the Barbaric says:

      So?

      Does it say anywhere that PK aims to be politically neutral?

      If liberals are the majority of people making LOLs and voting for them, the site will
      appear to have a liberal slant.

      Are you proposing some kind of affirmative action for LOLs that favor the
      conservative viewpoint?

    • ryszard says:

      I do plenty of them. They just get voted down by the left, who listen only to themselves, so think they are a majority. (They are on this site, alas.) Click on my username.

      • PiMan says:

        All I see are 8 low quality cat and dog pictures.

        • ryszard says:

          This is weird. Tech support emailed me last night saying that people were trying to message me and couldn’t. And when they used the username and password I gave them, they also saw the profile you did. But I have over 250 LOLs and 650 faves.

          We’re working on it.

          But I’ll try inserting it here as well: http: / / mine.icanhascheezburger.com/pictures-by-ryszard/

          • ema says:

            I was wondering about that myself, you did the one with the women in the burqas getting their picture taken and the one where Obama replaces the waiter. Those were good!

          • DeathWyrmNexus says:

            I was wondering about that cuz I tried to message you twice and says you haven’t accepted my friends request though I already accepted yours. O_o

      • GomerPhyls says:

        I’ve asked several times for examples of what the right find clever or funny and I’m almost always greeted with more rhetoric about how left-leaning PK is and how evil the lefties are. The few times people like EP have provided examples, they’re either pics of Obama that made it the front page anyway, or their non-sequiturs that don’t make much sense.
        If you’re so bent about not being represented, maybe you should go find more Republicans to help you tip the scales on the voting pages…

    • Well, there are, but this is still a free country, despite pres bush’s best efforts otherwise, so go start a Conservo-pundit and you guys can post each other about how much better we are after 8 years of conservo-trash running the country. Anyone got a hefty bag?

      • FunTimes says:

        Thanks for proving my point – i.e. that this is “Librel-Pundit” and you are all sitting around here subscribing to your own groupthink just as you described :-)

        • not true…don’t you conservatives speak? we can’t help it if you waste your opportunities whining about how unfair life is. now go take a nap and let the big people talk.

          • FunTimes says:

            Ooo, big man and his put down – great comeback. Way to miss the point! By saying people should start conservo-pundit, you are admitting this is liberal pundit. Hopefully I dumbed that down enough for you.

          • FunTimes says:

            Also, I love how the users here aren’t even intellectually honest enough to accept an obvious true statement. That attempt to disprove my statement by Gomer was especially idiotic. Are you all so obsessed with your ideology that you can’t recognize simple truths and patterns? Just go back and look at every post on this site . . it isn’t that hard to see a bias. But instead of simply admitting it and moving on, you just attack and spout venom.
            I also love how pointing this out is seen as a whine or partisan in anyway. You instantly attack anything that even has a hint of criticism. Can’t take it? Also, how is what I said conservative? How do you know I am? Oh right, you just assume anyone who doesn’t fall into line is automatically an evil-conservative-fascist baby-killer. Real mature there.

    • Jim says:

      You only have to look at he ads to see that it is geared toward the left. I have no problem with its being lopsided like that as long as it doesn’t pretend otherwise and I don’t think I’ve seen a claim that this site is not biased. Heck, it’s tough to even find a picture of Obama showing emotion enough to make fun of.

      • FunTimes says:

        It kind of does pretend. The “both parties” logo and the various search filters sort of imply both sides get skewered, when in fact they don’t at all.

        If they changed the name or added a description that made it obvious at first glance it would be better. Though to be fair if one spends any time here and has a shred of objectivity it becomes apparent very quickly.

        • jellybeans says:

          You know the Cheezburger site allows all lolanimals … BUT it is mainly cats. I think maybe cat lovers frequent that site so they make more cat lols.
          Sure you have the occasional walrus and llama and even a chair or two but mainly cats.
          Do you know what the dog lovers did? Got a new site where they post all dog lols and chat amongst themselves.
          Let’s look at liberals as cat lovers and this site as cheezburger … what should the dog lovers in this case do?

          • DeathWyrmNexus says:

            Oooooooh, very very nice analogy there, love. :D

            • Jane St.Clair says:

              No, I don’t want liberals to be cats damn it! I want to be dogs! Except that doesn’t make the analogy work… but still!

                    … I think it is painfully telling of my emotional state that I am watching this exchange and waiting for it to become girl on girl kitten licking. I am going to bang my head on the wall until I am consumer safe again.

                      *points at tubby grey and white cow print kitty*
                      That is Jellybean, he will allow you to lick him and pick him up and make him wear hats and play with his feets to make them dance in time to music. He is too lazy to stop you from doing any of these things.

                        Jellybean is made of win, Sounds like Skittles is just made of kyoot.
                        *Points at grey and white poofy cat* That is Celine, She’ll let you pet her, but pick her up wrong and she’ll tear your arm off.
                        *Points at solid black stretchmonster* That is Pandemonium Playing with him is the kitty version of russian roulette, sometimes he’ll lay there calmly while my neice decorates him like he’s going to be in the Mardi Gras parade, sometimes he’ll curl up on your hand and maul it savagely just because you tried to pet him. So go ahead you can try to lick the kitties if you want. And are crazy.

                          This is Devon, he is picky and believes it is all about him. Lick him, he won’t care or he might playfully bat your face with claws.

                          *holds up very old and cranky white and gray cat*
                          This is Socks, she is old and mean. She also won’t stop crapping on my floor. Depending on how senile she is at the moment, she might let you lick her.

          • FunTimes says:

            That’s fine. Then go ahead and re-label this site as “liberal pundit” and make another one. You’ve admitted that is what it is, so just get some truth in advertising.

      • jellybeans says:

        I have an add on my screen fro palinspeeps – it describes Palin as the woman Hilary WISHES she could be … sounds real liberal to me.

    I used to be excited about seeing a woman with a chance at being V.P. even though most of her views annoy the crap outta me, but looking at her now is just sad. The way her party has treated her particularly stands out.

    Offense #1: nominating her just to add ‘diversity’ to the ticket. It snowballed from there.

    On a side note, we need more Obama jokes. I’m all for poking fun but really, diversity plzkthx.

    I’ve never seen a LOL by a Republican casting McCain or Palin in a positive light. Before you go hating on PK because it’s got such a liberal slant, I frequent the voting pages and I’ve never seen one there either… So I’m curious, if PK was slanted to the right instead of the left, what would the positive McCain LOLs look like? Do they exist?

    Republicans like to say how hateful and evil Democrats are, but at least the Dems can say something positive about ONE of the candidates.

    I challenge any Republican who reads this to post a link to their positive McCain/Palin LOLs in reply to this thread so I can get a look at what they would look like.

    Just post the link… Evil Pundit’s myth about being censored for posting links is bunk. They just get stuck in PK’s spam filter and usually PK staff approve them within an hour or two of being posted.

      But I rarely see one by a lib saying anything other than Bush/Cheney/McCain/Palin/conservative-of-choice is: stupid/evil/stupid/old/stupid/conservative/stupid, etc., etc., ad nauseam. How about putting some actual thought into these things and trying for actual HUMOUR for a change? And, if you lefties are so intellectually honest, why not vote *against* that *don’t* rise above the third grade level? Jest a thot.

      • rick says:

        You’re just bitter because no one thinks you’re funny.

        • ryszard says:

          Actually, I just had three LOLs hit PK’s front page in quick succession. They were voted 4, 4.5, and 5, respectively. All political . . . all involving Dems . . . all heavily favored by lefties. I’m deeply flattered–mystified–but hardly bitter.

          And you just made my point for me.

          • DeathWyrmNexus says:

            Heh, I like talking to ya and I like your humor. Though I am a moderate so I am not sure if that counts. *shrugs*

      • GomerPhyls says:

        I think you missed the point… Dems know how to make LOLs that cast Obama in a positive light ie. “Everyone Chill The Fuck Out, I GOT THIS!”
        But I’ve never seen the equivalent from the Republican side… I’ve never seen a Republican say something GOOD about McCain or Palin, just hatred and bile towards Obama or Liberals, etc.

        • ryszard says:

          And how would you, personally, vote on one that *did* say something positive about a conservative?

          To respond to your implicit question, perhaps conservatives (different from Republicans, which I ain’t one) take the positives about their candidates for granted.

          For my part, I have seen few posts by lefties about a Republican or conservative that are not vile, hateful, or call names. At least few of the most scatological offenders make it to the front page. Those I mark as offensive, and I suspect others do as well.

          But isn’t it odd–I never see one about a lib that needs to marked as offensive (I would if it did).

          Idle curiosity: Anybody wonder how much the slant would change if anonymous posts weren’t permitted?

          • GomerPhyls says:

            I’ve seen PLENTY of jokes about Obama that include the word nigger, usually used in a very derogatory manner, and I’ve seen a couple dozen that go beyond that to include Klan-esque captions such as finding a hangin’ tree, etc.

            Moral high-ground FAIL.

            • ema says:

              Not on this site, those would be censored before they hit the voting page.

              • GomerPhyls says:

                Contrary to your beliefs, PK doesn’t censor anybody… Their voting metrics allow the general public to do that for them… So sad you’re the minority.

                PS. Still waiting for a single, solitary LOL in which a Republican says something good about their own candidate. It’s been a day already… I wonder how long it’s going to take.

            • ryszard says:

              Dammit, I’ve tried to respond to this twice. If I post it again, it’ll prolly show up three times . . .

              • GomerPhyls says:

                Post once… Period.

                Donkephant has said several times that posts get stuck in their spam filters but that during the daytime there are moderators that empty out those filters about once an hour.

            • ryszard says:

              . . . And the above showed up instantly. Hmm. Let’s try again:

              “Perhaps I haven’t been here as long as you have. I have seen no posts such as you describe, and would have marked them as offensive if I had. (I have seen a couple, even today, in which *Obama* is lampooned as saying ‘nigger’ in one context or another, though.)

              Perhaps you should get to know me better before you make Godlike assumptions about where I’m coming from, ‘kay?

              Lib-tolerance FAIL.

            • ryszard says:

              And ANOTHER showed up instantly–but not my direct response. Let’s try AGAIN:

              Perhaps I haven’t been here as long as you have. I have seen no posts such as you describe, and would have marked them as offensive if I had. (I have seen a couple, even today, in which *Obama* is lampooned as saying n***** in one context or another, though.)

              Perhaps you should get to know me better before you make Godlike assumptions about where I’m coming from, ‘kay?

              • M.... says:

                Give it up, man. The Liberal idiots on this site spend all their time here because they are so obnoxious they have no friends in their lives. ( when they aren’t looking at porn ). Picture Comic Book guy from the Simpsons. All they live for is to be snide , crude and try to justify their pathetic lives.
                Me, I’m outta here- Monkey Balloons is more mentally stimulating than this hate fest crap.

      • jellybeans says:

        you forgot stupid
        :D

    • Lolnathan says:

      I don’t know. I don’t see many positive lols period. Political reach-arounds just aren’t as funny as making a jab at somebody. Given the probably 90% liberal readership of the site, this means that with the mechanics of the site as they are, most pictures we see are going to be portrayals of conservative politicians in a negative light.

      Portrayals of liberal politicians get voted to nothingness due to the fact that people take themselves way too seriously and cannot find humor in something they disagree with. A sad and unfortunate character flaw, IMHO, that ruins anyones chance to see some particularly funny captions.

      There is also the unanswered question of how, exactly, lols make it to the voting page. I guess they are trolled at random by site moderators who elevate it to the voting page. If thats true then I must also assume the moderator dislikes captions that portray liberal politicians negatively.

      One could argue that the captions about liberal politicians simply are not funny and that is why we don’t see them. This seems unlikely to me. There are many pictures that make it to the front page and contain little to no humor, just a straight-out bash of some political candidate with no funny or subtle aspects involved. I.e. the “Bush is dumb.” “McCain is old.” “Palin is a woman.” lols. While of course they don’t literally say that, it’s typically some very thin and cliche caption that any 2 year old could have thought up. Now, if people find these funny, that’s fine. But I see a lot of anti-liberal captions that are on that same pathetic level.

      Why aren’t those good enough too? I think it’s a mistake to assume people are voting based on funny/not-funny. I imagine most readers are voting based on who they agree with politically, which is rather sad given the intent of the site.

  10. mrshooah says:

    Palin: “OMG – you bought that?”

    McCain: *Snort* “Holy crap, he did!”

  11. tygrr says:

    And I bet it’s not either of their reputations…

  12. lolbillclinton says:

    best. picture. ever.

  13. 6speedsamurai says:

    i don’t particularly care for Palin, but I do appreciate how much anguish and hatred she’s conjured up amongst all of you faux-politic pussy liberal types.

    • Eric the Barbaric says:

      Anguish and hatred?
      Try scorn and hilarity. Although the laughter is mostly to cover our fear of how bat5hit crazy she is, and how the election is a Trojan Horse masterminded by religious fanatics to get her into the presidency so she can turn us into the Republic of Gilead and declare open war on women’s rights, evolution, homosexuals, witches, and all other things that Jayzus don’t like.
      So, yeah.
      I suppose you’ll be happy when masturbation is punishable by the amputation of your hand!

    • garioch says:

      I understand that all you gun totting right wing theocratic loving fundamentalist psychos over there have this Chuck Norris view of the world where you are all over 6′ and win Vietnam wars single handed but you need to let reality enter before you get yourselves into even more fights you can’t handle.
      It’s relatively easy to follow that path; you just engage the brain to neutral, ride roughshod over any doubts and career into situations where the rest of us have to come once again to drag you out.
      It’s immensely harder to think, attempt to see another person’s point of view and resolution through negotiation at some cost to yourself.
      Mr. Norris and his ilk are soft as wittle furry bunnies; liberals are by nature as hard as Jesus.
      Now off you go and play with your guns and pretend all you like but if we were to meet you would swiftly find the weapon you were brandishing rammed right up your….

    • OB1 says:

      I think you hit a sensitive spot with the pussy liberal Dungeon and Dragon weenies ! :-)

      • n8 says:

        Ah yes, the 101st fighting keyboard commandos are out in force. I wonder if you could ever work up the nerve to call -anybody- a pussy in real life.

        Given the average chickenhawk’s proclivities, I’m guessing “no.”

      • Viking says:

        Is this to imply anyone who plays D&D is liberal, a pussy, and/or a weeny? ‘Cos, you know, several conservative service men and women (those willing to DIE for your cowardly ass) have enjoyed a few campaigns (self included, though I’m as middle of the road as I can possibly be, as I care for neither petty argument of “party first” bull crap)… anyways, yeah… /rantoff

  14. Sukhoi says:

    I lol’d.

    I think that would be more her son’s reaction. *nest angry rant here*

  16. Lallz says:

    Aw, she looks kinda…cute…kinda.

  17. MegaBob says:

    Yawn…….!

  18. Luke says:

    I wouldn’t ever vote for her, but my God she is unfairly hot. I would do things to her that would make Jesus wriggle off the cross and come at me nails first. Hot salvation…

    • Eric the Barbaric says:

      d00d, u needz 2 git layd. srsly.

      Although I can sincerely sympathize. Especially if you’re into the whole naughty librarian thing.

      • DeathWyrmNexus says:

        I just don’t know but business dressed conservative women just seem soooooo pent up. Like sex grenades. Just need to bite the pin and watch the explosion.

      • Luke says:

        I get laid pretty often, just not by psycho bible-thumpers with retard genes. She just needs some superior-being DNA and some warm hands to straighten her out. It’s the same reason I want to bang Coulter, I just want her to tell me I’m the best terrorist she has ever had, and blessed be to Allah.

    • Koki Kariya says:

      It’s good you think that; the only qualifications she has are T and of course A. And T&A’s proximity to the least inhabited parts of Russia.

  19. Joe says:

    HAHA! this made me laugh so hard…generally…i hate the pics making fun of obama/biden, and mccain/palin…but i have to say….this one was too funny! XD

  20. ycul says:

    This made me laugh til I cried as we have long had a family joke about distraction through bling….really, can she face down Putin or any of the other big guys without falling back on her figure or a pistol…maybe if she has private meetings with them and just personally assassinates them one-by-one and then we could have surgically altered undercover agents take their place, no wait, this is the real world and adults with reasoning and intelligence should be saying nuclear with confidence and proper pronunciation, dontchakno…

  21. lizzydaze says:

    this is funny. I don’t get politics.I don’t like her any way.

  22. piepin says:

    HAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAAHHHAHAHAHAUAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! =D

  23. HappyTomatoGirl says:

    I am shaking with suppressed laughter…..
    ….And it’s only suppressed because little sis is taking a nap in the next room.
    Good gosh, this is the best thing EVER.
    HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHHAHAHAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!
    XD XD XD XD XD XD XD XD XD XD XD XD XD !!!!!!!

  24. Uncle Fester says:

    Social liberal, constitution first libertarian with a certain level of belief that social responsibility can be devolved to government, fiscal conservative with anarco-capitalist overtones, and possibly a Lynch style vigilantist, but you only mention taking ‘justice’ into your own hands once, so it’s not easy to say…

    Welcome to Hell! You fit nowhere.

  25. Houdineh says:

    Shiny :D

    Uuuugh. It makes me sick to think this woman could’ve taken office. What a MORON!
