Palin Claims Vice President "In Charge Of The U.S. Senate"

Think Progress:

Yesterday, Gov. Sarah Palin (R-AK) sat for an interview with KUSA, an NBC affiliate in Colorado. In response to a question sent to the network by a third grader at a local elementary school about what the Vice President does, Palin erroneously argued that the Vice President is "in charge of the United States Senate":

Q: Brandon Garcia wants to know, "What does the Vice President do?"

PALIN: That's something that Piper would ask me! ... [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.

It's a really great job, and the first thing I'm gonna do when I get it is hire my witch doctor friend to go to the Senate and chase all the DEMons away.

Wait until SNL gets a hold of this one LOL

[Hedonist88]

Amen and Hallelujah

People google PNAC and john mccain and make sure your sitting down. After your done spread the word. This is chilling.

[whatsthatsound]

And I can fire all the senators I don't like!

[Fudgefase]

She's projecting. This is her ambition, laid bare. Beware.

Sarah Palin-- the newly crowned "Senate Lord, G.od, Empress, Queen, Tzar"

[whatsthatsound]

That would be Tsarina, and why not (?) considering her proximity to Russia. When she gets sent back to where she came from, she can split her time between Anchorage and Vladivastock.

If you close your eyes ... she sounds like Roseanne Barr impersonating Steve Martin.

Way to go, LK! That's surreal even by my own rather lenient standards.

[whataboutGod]

Who is surprised about this? I can't wait to hear what she thinks the presidents job is.

Sarahahahaha, any ninth grader saying that on a quiz when I taught Civics would have gotten a red check mark by the answer and a note to see Article One of the constitution. We know the history, but today the Majority Leader, the caucuses and the Presidents Pro-Tem have those functions, don't they? Isn't it interesting that Sarahahahaha wants to follow the recent trend from the R party to expand the roles and powers of POTUS & VP?
