Sarah Palin Will Rule the Senate with an Iron Fist

POSTED BY: Dennis DiClaudio

Here's a little question for you: What is the role of the vice-president of the United States?

If you said, "To do nothing and try not to set the White House curtains on fire," you're close, but not quite right.

Sarah Palin gave the correct answer to a third-grader named Brandon, who should know better than to ask such "gotcha" questions: To be the Queen of the Senate

"[T]hey're in charge of the U.S. Senate so if they want to they can really get in there with the senators and make a lot of good policy changes that will make life better for Brandon and his family and his classroom."

That's right. If a VP wants to, she can just mosey onto the Senate floor and start handing out orders and asking the Majority Leader to go fetch her a Diet Coke, just as the Founding Fathers envisioned in their great wisdom.

Where does it say that in the Constitution? Well, it doesn't technically say that, but that's what's so great about being Madam Vice-President: You don't have to follow the Constitution. Or even read it, really.

Actually, come to think of it, the Constitution could be really useful for the Vice-President. Like, if she doesn't have a coaster handy and she doesn't want her Diet Coke to leave a ring on the table beside her Vice-Presidential throne.

  1. Give her a little time, she'll burn the thing. I've decided she seems to be afflicted with narcissistic personality disorder. She isn't funny, she's dangerous.

  2. This is so stupid, there's no need to comment. You won't listen, anyway.

  3. Sarah Palin is rewriting the Constitution? You mean the one that has been systematically destroyed and declared "just a piece of paper" by the Supreme Court with the assistance of the last several administrations?

  4. Just watch as the Sarah Palin Welcoming Committee gets tackled by the Grand Junction, Colorado Police department. Some people are willing to take great chances in order to show the fallacies in the system.

  8. You can have my constitution when you pry it out of my cold dead hands Sarah Palin!

  10. Funny how so many ignorant people on Comedy Central have opinions, but no good answers on how to run the Country. Please check your facts and see how well Sarah Palin has done in Alaska. Compare that to the idiot VP elect. From his 3 letter words, jobs to his mistatements on other things. Joe B has no brains, but you folks on the far left support his idiology. Perhaps you'll be happy when no one works and has a pay check and we are all dependent upon our "rulers" (Husseins words, not mine). Then where will you find the comdey and the freedom you so value? Idiots.
