I do not approve of this. You will hear from my lawyer.
Bad idea and poorly done.
Ergh... if yer a-gonna write something that could be misused by even one right-winger, it could at least be FUNNY.
Most of these "new column" pieces are poorly done. You have to be either 13-years-old or retarded to find them funny.
Really poorly done. Not a bad idea, but damn, the faux redneck speak is so awful it ends up caricaturing you, not her.
Most Palin satire--this included--falls flat because it doesn't capture her rural Alaskan (almost Fargo-esque) accent and cadence. "lil chitlin", "we all's gonna be"? It ain't Appalachia up there. You guys can do better than that.
Whatever haters, that was comic gold
Suck a dick and die! All of you!
...well, I laughed...
The Stranger is not The Onion.
Post fake stories under fake names = never make claims to credibility again.
It's really simple.
That might just be sexist.
Why did she give all her children what sounds like the names of car models or running shoes? Is it commemorating the backseats in which they were conceived, or what?
You people disgust me.
Dry Cooter - I used to love his music, especially his albums from the late '70's/early '80's. "Bop Till You Drop" was a particular favorite.
I adore that pink paper clip
you have to admit the 'Toothbrush Manson Otterback Palin' thing was a little funny
That is extremely unfunny. You could have done so much with a fake Palin column. Actually lampooned the reality of who she is and her candidacy in some actual way, for instance. Way to make her supporters think they're justified in their cries of unfair attacks.
I'd say making fun of the names she's given her offspring DOES in fact "lampoon the reality of who she is".
Running obviously satirical columns doesn't ruin the Stranger's credibility any more than running Marmaduke ruins the Seattle Times credibility.
Plus, this shit was funny.
Stupid and unfunny. I bet none of your comic writers could even get a list published on McSweeneys Internet Tendencies.
Fourth rate. And I can't stand Palin. Don't be so dumb.
Making fun of the weird names is funny, sure. But also totally obvious, and completely beside the point of why she's dangerous. I'd think the lib-rul Stranger would want to land at least one ON-POINT zinger in there SOMEwhere. But I still say it was unfunny, with the possible exception of funny names.
Um.
Well at least that's one thing she wrote.
Cause she didn't write the speech she gave last night.
A man did.
It was written by a man, for a man - they changed it for her later.
That was hilarious. I laughed my ass off.
@4, i'm not 13, but i AM developmentally disabled and i thought it was hilarious, you fascist fuck.
I don't think it was a "Hail Mary" speech, considering that she is a FORMER CATHOLIC who is now an ASSEMBLY OF GOD member (thus assuring that my mother and her friends will never vote for her, regardless of what she thinks about abortion).
Not that my mother would vote for a Republican anyway, but it's the talk of her little group of old Catholic ladies.
Everyone needs to remember that this election is not about issues, but a coagulation of images into some sort of a feel-good electoral congee-thing.

Making fun of funny sounding names is fun! Barack Hussein Obama, his sister Maya Soetoro-Ng, and his spawn Malia are great places to start.
It's also fun to make fun of people who think their vagina is a clown car.
Nancy Pelosi springs to mind.
Memes! It's a Festival of Memes!
There's more truth in that than anything Sarah Palin's ever said.
Funnier, too -- and that's saying something!
I am the laughing man!
As for the 'column,' I thought it was borderline funny, but nowhere near as good as "Don't Do Blow, by Sandra Oh."
Put a check next to my name in the That's Funny column.
