The Prank to end all Pranks. Really.
The Masked Avengers from CKOI in Montreal (I confess I was always a CHOM and that AM station that Dino was on, girl) called Sarah Palin, pretending to be Nicolas Sarkozy. They kept it up for six minutes, and she … Continue reading
Make that…four and a half Secretary of State endorsements for McCain/Palin
Lawrence Eagleburger on whether Sarah Palin is qualified to be President (via HuffPo): “It is a very good question,” he said, pausing a few seconds, then adding with a chuckle: “I’m being facetious here. Look, of course not.” Eagleburger explained: … Continue reading

Hockey Mom, Reformer, Machiavellian Nepotist. You know, the usual.
First in-depth article by the NYT. Thank you. Now my visceral mistrust has some concrete reasons to latch on to.
