You probably saw this the other day, but Tracy Morgan got himself into “hot water” after being goaded into saying that “Sarah Palin is good masturbation material.” Although I don’t share that opinion (hey, there’s a world wide web full of suitable inspiration for those purposes, and I think even a cursory Google search would provide you with hundreds of thousands (if not millions) of better material. Still, to each his or her own, and I don’t really understand why poor Tracy (who, I hate to break the news to the professionally offended out there, is a comedian) is in trouble for his remarks. Palin is lucky that anybody thinks of her in that, ‘cuz that’s pretty much all she has going for her. Plus, her candidacy – if she actually runs for anything again, which I found doubtful – and, hell, the whole teabagger “movement” is really just an exercise in autoeroticism anyway.

One person who would definitely agree with Tracy Morgan is Jimmy McMillan, who you may remember as “The rent is Too Damn High” candidate for NYS Governor – whose candidacy was so successful (other than the part about actually winning) that he’s thrown is hat into ring for the 2012 presidential election.

Love her. Constitution. American citizen. Exercising the right to privacy. Free speech. Haters — those who don’t like Sarah Palin. That’s what they are. Sarah Palin: I love you because America gives you the constitutional right to do whatever you want to do as a woman. And people don’t think you can do because you’re a woman. They try to make a mockery out of you. But you stand up for your rights and stand strong for your rights. And don’t let anyone try to cut you down. Not only are they talking about Sarah Palin. They’re talking about me.

So, perhaps all you folks out there who think that Sister Sarah’s appeal only extends to old white guy, you’d better think again.

Of course, I think Jimmy may play for both teams, with his eye on President Obama.

McMillan urged Obama to call him up on the phone and…he called [the President] “a good-looking young guy” that he admired.

“I’m coming after his black ass,” he said of Obama.

Oh well, I slept in late this morning, and have a lot of work to do. Plus, this freakin’ MacBook is being a pain in the ass (not unusual – I really don’t see how people say these things are any better, but well, I don’t wanna start anything; they all have their quirks), so I guess it’s time to get this Sunday started.

I hate the thought of going to work tomorrow.

Have a good one.
