The McCain team may not have properly vetted Sarah Palin, but the Democrats sure did when she ran for Governor.

This thing is full of damning evidence and bizarre anecdotes about Sarah Palin and her little town of Wasilla. But this one is by far my favorite:

Palin Presided Over a Wedding at a Walmart. He worked in the pets department. She was a cashier. A romance blossomed. And when it came time to say ''I do,'' they chose -- where else? -- an aisle next to menswear. Sandwiched between racks of cotton pants and surrounded by ''Back-to-School Specials'' signs, Jake McCowan and Rosalyn Ryan exchanged vows last week at the place where they met, work and fell in love: the Wasilla Wal-Mart. A crowd of 200, including passengers from a tour bus and several dozen curious shoppers, watched the two employees tie the knot in an afternoon ceremony officiated by Wasilla Mayor Sarah Palin. ''It was so sweet,'' said Palin, who fought back tears during the nuptials. "It was so Wasilla." [Anchorage Daily News (Alaska), 8/28/99]

Wow, you literally could not make this stuff up.

  2. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

    Did the happy couple have McDonald's cater the event? Did they consummate the union in the front seat of a P/U truck in the parking lot? Don't tell me, they vacationed at a minature golf course?

    This is so good I nearly fell out of my chair! An instant classic!

    I may post this and credit you back.

    Thanks for the laugh, Gryphen.

    Please reassure me that there's enough stuff out there to keep this train wreck from being a position to actually be the VP of the US. When I think about her occupying the same office as John Adams, my palm keeps hitting my forehead.

    That noise you hear? It's John Adams and Teddy Rooselvelt spinning in their graves.

    The interesting question is did Obama properly vet Biden?

  9. On the unlikely chance McCain wins (and a new poll shows that Palin TANKED among Hillary voters and likely women voters in general), and the National Enquirer affair story is true, will that make Todd Palin The First Cuckold?
