I’m a maverick you see but I can be a pal.
I’m just a soccer Mom and I’m really kind of fun
if you overlook the fact that I pack a gun.
I know you’ve heard the stories all about the moose
and how I shot it dead when it was on the loose.
The story isn’t true – you now how stories are.
I didn’t shoot the damn thing until I hit it with my car.
Now you may think I’m old fashioned. I still believe in God.
although He’s a little slow so sometimes I give a prod
and remind Him that the Bible contains the list of sins
subject to interpretation by the Reverend Ed Kalnins.
I follow all the rules and practice them everyday
like the Golden Rule “love others unless they’re gay.”
I mean, come on, we know marriage wasn’t meant for them.
Why even in the Good Book it says we should condemn.
I think public education should teach abstinence as the way.
My daughter? Oh, I think she was out sick that day.
These little glitches happen so don’t you be fretting.
You’re all invited to attend a Wasilla shotgun wedding.
So hold on to your questions which I’ll probably ignore.
I just want you to know who’ll be minding the store
if anything should happen to my soulmate John.
I’ll be standing strong to protect you from I-ron.
I’m just like all you Joe Six-Pack’s. I’m strong as any man.
You’re safe with me...
...assuming you haven’t divorced a member of my clan.
Addendum (added after the latest debate)
“The heels are on, the gloves are off”
and so the truth falls in a trough.
Our plans are thin as dime-store tissues
and so we’ll avoid the pressing issues.
The only chance we have to win
is to spread fear from within.

I'm shocked to hear the photo isn't genuine. Which bit is fake? I bet it's the legs.

Standing "O"!!! The woman makes my teeth ache.
surely it is all a practical joke - a particularily unpleasant one.
Great work.

Omg Ken, this one's so full of humor it made me laugh so bad I fell off my chair! (Too bad the seatbelt idea didn't work)
I am so adding this one to my favotes!
Best of luck in the contest!

Did you hear the one when her daughter said she wanted to go out clubbing and Sarah said, "Would that be homos or russkies, darlin'?"

This is funny!! I know it's done tongue in cheek 
I don't know much about her, only the little bit we see on the news here.. but it's a great satire on all the media plays!!

"Joe Six-Pack",eh?
...I've heard she drinks Belgian beer, and has been to parties were they've served French wines!

It's all part of her "foreign experience"
Gosh sometimes I wonder just how stupid we are... we are becoming a nation of "sheeple"... Thanks for the read and comment.
