For 100 bucks you get access to an
Internet channel where she'll blather about things like the war on Christmas.

I
figured the Texas lineup of Sen. Ted Cruz, Gov. Rick Perry, and a carnival
sideshow of far-right Congress critters assured my state the glory of being the
hands-down winner of the 2014 blue-ribbon prize for “Goofiest Politicos in
America.”
But
now, a former winner has surged from obscurity to become the frontrunner. Yes,
folks, Sarah Palin is back.
The
former Alaska governor and John McCain’s 2008 running mate on the Republican
presidential ticket has been awarded a reality TV show about (what else?)
herself. You can find it on SPC. You know, the Sarah Palin Channel.
Instead
of just another show, there’s a whole new channel that’s all Palin, all the
time. Don’t look for it in your TV listings. It’s on the Internet and a yearly
subscription costs $99.95.
Of
course, a recurring theme is her hilarious demand that Congress impeach
President Barack Obama.
She
lectures that among other impeachable acts, Obama has opened the U.S.-Mexico
border “to a flood of illegal immigrants,” explaining darkly that this “is
deliberate,” fulfilling his diabolical goal for the “fundamental transformation
of America.”
This
isn’t her first attempt to remove the man who kept her and McCain out of the
White House. Last year she wanted him impeached because he and Congress were
going to raise our nation’s debt limit, as previous presidents have done.
This
time though, Palin upped her game. She’s declaring that any member of Congress “who would hesitate in voting for articles of impeachment”
should also be removed.
Wow,
even Ted Cruz hasn’t topped that, but you can bet he’ll try. Go Ted! Texas is
counting on you.
