Now Imaginary Friends Are Weighing In On Sarah Palin

Yesterday columnist Froma Harrop shared a fanciful tale of her dinner with a “Republican-leaning independent who was despondent” over the Palin VP nomination. This “friend” was a McCain supporter who said that

all she could now see was that picture of Palin’s pregnant 17-year-old looking defiant and stupid as she held mom’s fifth baby.

Classy, Harrop. Classy.

Harrop’s imaginary friend then offered this gem:

Don’t they have birth control up in Alaska?

No, Froma. I reckon up in Alaska they’re too busy fantasizing about indoor plumbing and nailing their cousins to worry about birth control.

But that’s okay – if Obama has his way they’ll have infanticide, and that’s really the next best thing.

By the way, unwed father David Letterman also questioned the availability of Trojans in Alaska, and wondered why Sarah Palin didn’t have “the presence of mind to have chatted to her teenaged kids for five minutes about birth control.” Apparently humor is now above Letterman’s pay grade. Luckily Dr. Phil was there to school him on the limits of parental influence in the lives of teens.
