Since this week is the Palin media extravaganza, let’s have at it…

Recently, former GOP pooba, Dick Armey expressed his envy of Sarah Palin:

• So she’s kind having to dig herself out of a hole if she wants to regain standing for consideration for a future nomination. And by all accounts, it doesn’t appear she’s doing a very effective job of digging herself out of that hole.

Alright, this is not so bad.  At this rate, there is plenty of ambiguity for those that do not want to believe that people like you have put her in this hole.  It is interesting to note that Dick has a hole on his mind.

• I think she’s probably a person of greater ability than what she’s given credit to. She probably has more sense than what she’s given credit for. But I do think there’s this whole perception-is-reality thing right now, and she’s got a terribly, terribly rough row to hoe if she’s ever going to regain some standing and make her competitive.

Thanks for propagating that reality, Dick.  Frankly, Dick is inadvertently practicing a great pick-up technique.  Is that what he is really up to, here?

• And they don’t have a lot of time for someone who stands removed and says, ‘Right on.’ They’re not looking for a cheerleader; they’re looking for a captain of the team.

Okay, that’s it!  The fact that cheerleaders are on his mind, proves it!  This is an attempt at a Tea Party Movement pick-up!  To think that I was all set to say that Dick was just jealous because he’s old news;  because everyone in the world knows who Sarah Palin is; and because no one knows Dick Armey from Penis Navy.  I was going to say that there are too many instances when the GOP eats its young…and…and…well, someone here is trying to do that.

On another related note, here’s the latest cover of Newsweek:

Nice.  Now, besides providing Dick with some spanking material (in case he missed that issue of Runner’s World), we all know what’s going on here.  Now what kind of commentary can we expect?  How about: “Oh, no one’s going to take her seriously if she poses for pictures like that.  Besides, look at how the world looks at the United States after our President has done all that gay pornography.”  So is Sarah still in the hole?
