What's Wrong With This Picture?


Sarah Palin's first photo-op at the convention. Anybody notice anything kinda...weird? If this is a politician's spousal confab, um, shouldn't Todd Palin be the one tossing back watercress sandwiches and iced tea? (okay, that' entire hypothetical. Between Laura and Cindy a luncheon is xanax and Jack Daniels)

To republicans this is perfectly natural. The girls chit chat in the parlor, the boys stand out in the garage drinking beer. Or something like that.

They do not take her seriously. Tell me, why should we?

You make a good point. The GOP still like the ladies in the parlour and the men in the study with their brandy and cigars.
Hello, 1968.

Thank you! Perfect! And like Dcup, I also wonder why Todd Palin's not holding "his own" baby in any of the family pictures. If Bristol's five months pregnant, maybe someone should give the poor kid a break and take the baby for her.

Check the St. Paul Hooters. If I'm not mistaken, the future Second Dude is at the quickie bachelor party for his future son-in-law.

Great post Jess!

Yes, that picture has many problems including the shoulder pads that 1987 wants back.

Oh, how I wish the GOP took women seriously.

I heard on CSPAN this a.m. that this pow wow was so that Cindy and Laura could bring Gov. Palin up to speed on how to smile into the face of scrutiny.

(insert medication joke here)

P.S. good point, CDP! why is the pregnant kid always toting the baby?

Next we'll see them all posed with aprons on, baking cookies, I bet.

To be fair would YOU like to backslap and chit chat with George Bush?

I think the ladies got the better deal here. Less snickering stupidity.

What's wrong? There are no living, breathing human beings in the picture.

No-slapz, it's good to see you haven't changed!

Can't have the Short Bus driving around empty now, can we?

Superb.
Rosanne Barr, only better looking.

Oh wow, you're right. Wrong combination there. But it's true, they figure the ladies have to lunch.

I think that Palin is serious. Seriously wrong for the country, that is. ;o)
