#58 When questioned about her knowledge of foreign affairs, Palin notes that her experience with Russia is unique. So unique, in fact, that only Eskimos and polar bear can claim a closer relationship.

Palin’s supporters note that Alaska’s “proximity” to Russia has given her unique experience on foreign affairs. No less than Cindy McCain states that, “Remember that Alaska is the closest part of our continent to Russia.” Thanks for clearing that up, Cindy. Now go back to your sorority house and spend some “quality time” with the BMOC.

Apparently being able to “see” Russia from an island off the coast is the same as actually working with the Russians. Let’s follow this line of logic a tad further, shall we?

Massachusetts is the closest state to Algeria so, undoubtedly, Governor Deval Patrick should be claiming that as his basis for foreign affairs experience.

Hawaii is just a hop, skip, and a jump from China, so clearly Governor Linda Lingle is our go-to person for all things Chinese. How could she not be?

Nepalese Sherpa are up really high in the mountains, so on that fateful day when Mars finally attacks, we know who to go to for leadership.
