THE ALASKA GAME HEN AND THE GOVERNMENT SHUTDOWN
News Item: Former Alaska Governor, Sarah Palin joined Senator Ted Cruz, the
leading Senate opponent of Obamacare and opposed efforts to compromise.
Ya know, it's easy to figure out. This Gran' Ollama President ya have ... he's gonna
communisticate us. That's what this healthcare is -- it's a communisticatin' device.
An' that ain't no sex toy ... you better believe it!
I'm tellin' ya. Back where I come from I can see these communistas from my backyard
and it ain't a pretty sight. Scares the livin' daylights out of ma flock ... worse than a
grizzly.
Imagine closin' down a memorial to the greatest generation ... right here in the capital
city. They who fought for our freedoms. It ain't right, an' a truly patriotic President
would've found a way to keep it open.
Our vets ain't timid, they fought for us. So we ain't gonna be timid callin' out those
who use 'em as pawns in their political wheelin' an' dealin'.
An I ain't cacklin', I'm tellin' ... I'm tellin' this leader of those droopy nosed, soft-bellied,
curly furred quadropeds, this Gran' Ollama ... I'm tellin' him: Tear down this wall, tear
down these barricades so our people can pay homage to the greatest generation ...
What? What da ya say? Surprised I can say quadropeds! Yeah, an' I can say
quadroplegic as well. An' that's what you'r gonna be when I get a hold of my
shotgun. So button ya lip ...
