Sarah Palin is ready to be our nation's vice-Dear Leader because she has met with mass murderer Henry Kissinger and has stood next to some world leaders. She even shook hands with some of them.

The news accounts even had the gall to call it "shuttle diplomacy," which makes Sarah Palin's photo-op in NYC the same as Kissinger flying around the Middle East in 1973 trying to prevent a nuclear war erupting out of the Arab-Israeli war (the origin of that term).

This makes me think. These are core qualifications for high office. It is the handshake that seals the deal. All knowledge is transferred that way. I've seen Thundercats, I know these things.

I myself have shaken hands with great conjunto accordionist Santiago Jimenez, Jr. This photo has been cropped to protect the identity but it is fer real.



This must mean I am ready to be installed in the conjunto hall of fame. Finally. Thanks for setting a standard, Gov. Palin.
