Sarah Palin will appear at a fundraiser for Rep. Michele Bachmann (R-Minn.) in April, Bachmann's re-election campaign announced on Thursday.

The event, to be held at the Minneapolis Hilton Hotel, will feature a dinner, reception and "photo opportunity," according to a statement from the campaign. The price of a ticket to the fundraiser has not been released.

Bachmann's campaign said that "plans are in the works for a rally" with Palin, but nothing firm has yet to be posted.

According to the Bachmann campaign, Minnesota Gov. Tim Pawlenty, former Minnesota Sen. Norm Coleman and several members of Congress are part of the host committee for the fundraiser.

Constitutional scholars Sean Hannity and Sarah Palin teamed up yesterday to discuss the "Demon Pass" by the majority Congress, claiming the maneuver is UNPRECEDENTED and UNCONSTITUTIONAL even though it's been used like reconciliation countless times by Republicans as well as Democrats.

Oooo, those demons Rep. Gohmert said were all around him during the poorly attended Teabagger protest in Washington DC the other day? Hmmm...

I guess the new 2010 Spring Fashion trend is having the aforementioned Hannity and Palin, and hundreds of thousands of heretofore American-civics-and-history-ignorant Tighty-Righties yammer in thousands of videotaped sound bites about Teh Constitution ("don't touch our Constitution!!1).

Yawn.

Can you please all make public that Michele Bachman and her husband Marc are running a Mental Health Clinic that accepts ALL insurance. They would profit from the new law, so we need to find out why they are against it, besides Michele being insane.

She probably gets no appointment at her own clinic, they are all scared of her, because she is beyond curable.

In response to Palin’s attack on Rep Grayson, Grayson actually complimented Palin. Grayson praised Palin for having a hand large enough to fit Grayson’s entire name on it. He thanked Palin for alleviating the growing shortage of platitudes in Central Florida.

Grayson added that Palin deserved credit for getting through the entire hour-long program without quitting. Grayson also said that Palin really had mastered Palin’s imitation of Tina Fey imitating Palin. Grayson observed that Palin is the most-intelligent leader that the Republican Party has produced since George W. Bush.

When asked to comment about what effect Palin’s criticism might have, Grayson pointed out, “As the Knave’s horse says in Alice in Wonderland, ‘dogs will believe anything.’” Earlier, as the Orlando Sentinel reported, Grayson said, “I’m sure Palin knows all about politics in Central Florida, since from her porch she can see Winter Park,” ...part of Grayson’s district.

Grayson said that the Alaskan chillbilly was welcome to return to Central Florida anytime, as long as she brings lots of money with her, and spends it. “I look forward to an honest debate with Governor Palin on the issues, in the unlikely event that she ever learns anything about them,” Grayson added, alluding to Politifact’s “liar, liar, pants on fire” evaluation of much of what Palin has said.

Scientists are studying Sarah Palin’s travel between Alaska and Florida carefully. They hope to learn more about the flight patterns of that elusive migratory species, the wild Alaskan dingbat."

The antidote for The Mean Girls: Alan Grayson. You HAVE to read this, direct from Grayson's site:

"Subject: Palin Attacks Grayson; Grayson Applies Calamine Lotion to the Resulting Reddish Skin

On Friday night, Sarah Palin came to Orlando, and attacked Rep. Alan Grayson. This is what she said:

“I got to meet quite a few candidates who are lining up in a contested primary who want to take out Alan Grayson. And I think Alan Grayson — what can you say about Alan Grayson? Piper is with me tonight, so I won’t say anything about Alan Grayson that can’t be said around children. [Good one, Sarah!] But thank you, Florida, for allowing candidates in a contested primary to duke it out over ideas and principles and values, all with the same goal, and that is unseating those who have such a disconnect from the people of America. That’s what the goal is here in this race against Alan Grayson. Please fight hard, and do this for the rest of the country. Fight hard, and send a conservative to Washington, DC.”

Palin, the former half-term Governor, current-nothing and future-even-less, charmed the all-Republican audience with her folksy folksiness and her homespun homespunnery. Atypically, Palin was wearing clothes that she had paid for herself. At the end of the event, she shared her recipe for mooseface pie.

I was trying to figure out what you get when you cross Palin and Bachmann, but I decided they are way too dangerous to cross. Probably will get you keeled, feeled dressed by Palin and teeled under Bachmann's back forty.

Q: What do you get when you combine Sarah Palin and Michele Bachmann.

A: I have no idea. An IQ of 100, maybe?
10:10 AM on 03/17/2010
100?, you are too generous, they are both idiots, maybe an 80

Well it's definitely end-times. The four horsemen draw nigh, and these two white b!tches team up.
