Sarah Palin is not so bright - Part 423

I didn't think I would do Sarah Palin posts back-to-back. Alas, I should have known better. Could not resist this story. The Caribou Barbie apparently told People magazine that the job she would most want right now in the White House is the Chief of Staff.

GOD.DAMN.HILARIOUS. It gets better. Here's a direct quote:

"It would be chief of staff, so I could start appointing people who would recognize those things that America needs to get our economy back on the right track and to secure our nation."

Where do I start? Let's do Civics 101. Here are the responsibilities of the White House Chief of Staff.
Here are the people who report to him.

Now that we have cleared that up, what EXACTLY is Sarah saying here? That the current WHCS appoints only people who hate this country and truly wish for it to fail miserably? That she fully acknowledges she knows so little about the executive branch that she does not even KNOW who gets 'appointed' or who is on the White House staff? Or maybe she is saying that only she holds the super seeekret formula for choosing just the right candidate to bow to her every whim to drill baby drill to save the country.

But, wait. Appointing Washington power brokers? People who have influence over policy? Without congressional oversight? Sarah .. have you lost touch with your wingnut base? The appointment of influential policy makers without proper vetting is unconstitutional, communist, abuse of power, and shadowy.

Awwwww... too bad Sarah. You won't get THAT White House position either.
