In Which I Go Iowahawk

Probably not as good as the exalted one, but hey, I do Holmes now and again.

“So the Mambo beat the Foxtrot!”

This is how Republican Vice Presidential nominee Sarah Palin described Barack Obama’s win over Hillary Clinton to political colleagues in a restaurant a few days after Obama wowed them on Dancing With the Stars.

According to Lucille (or Esmeralda, or Susie or Beldar - our pseudonym engine is on the fritz), the waitress serving her table at the time and who asked that her last name not be used, Gov. Palin was eating lunch with five or six people when the subject of the Democrat’s primary battle came up. The governor, seemingly not caring that people at nearby tables would likely hear her, and apparently unaware that the left would turn her comments into something they were not, uttered the slur and then laughed loudly as her meal mates joined in appreciatively.

“It was kind of disgusting,” Lucille (or whatever), who is part Aboriginal, part transplant, part Estonian and, we suspect, partly Presbyterian, said in a phone interview after admitting that she is frightened of being discovered telling folks in the “lower 48” about life near the North Pole.

Then, almost with a sigh, she added, “But that’s just Alaska.”

Dancing slurs may be “just Alaska” but, clearly, they are common, everyday chatter for the left in the lower 48. Hell, we make this stuff up at the drop of a hat.

Besides insulting Obama with a Patrick Swayze, Dirty Dancing swipe, people who know her say she refers regularly to Alaska’s Aboriginal people as “Mambo Maniacs” or “Tango Twits” – how efficient, lumping two apparently Unrelated dance styles into one ugly description – as well as the more colorful “Twists” along with the totally unimaginative “Limbo Loonies,” according to a number of Alaskans and Wasillians interviewed for this article. (They took a break from the dance marathon to be interviewed for this article.)

But being openly dancist is only the tip of the Palin iceberg. According to Alaskans interviewed for this article, she is also vindictive and mean, eats puppies for breakfast, uses kitties for doormats at her vacation home and has a sideline business selling walrus burgers. We’re making all of this up, of course.

Frankly, at this point I got tired of the vitriolic tripe from the left. This is how low they will go. And worse, I’m sure. Keep excavating kids. Maybe at some point you’ll realize that your trench will only serve to bury your candidate’s chance for election.

But I rather doubt it. Carry on.

UPDATE: Don Surber has the news that the leftosphere is now trying to pass off (faked) nude pictures of Julia Louis-Dreyfus as nude pictures of Sarah Palin. The absolutely hysterical best take on the whole thing comes from one of Don’s commenters, MU78 who has this absolute gem:

I’ve come to the conclusion that if there are swimsuit pictures out there, McCain goes to 55% in the polls. Bikini shots will push his numbers to 70% and if the photos are in color Obama and Biden will vote for her.

Short, compact, blistering. Funny as all hell. Absolutely perfect. Kudos, This is better than my effort!

It gets better, the “Julia Louis-Dreyfus” pic is itself a photoshop.

There are no racy Sarah Palin photos out there.

Not that I’ve spent hours searching online … really….

This whole thing is becoming surreal. Imagine if McCain had taken my advice and picked Meg Whitman. NBC and CNN would have run off doing horrid stories about her and within a single banking cycle they would have been bought out, shut down and their office furniture sold on eBay.
