Sarah Palin cultists are not amused that Mama Grizzly had her snout swatted by the Brits:

A firestorm on the US right has erupted after the Guardian reported that Sarah Palin will be denied a meeting with Lady Thatcher on the grounds that it would be “belittling” for her to meet the darling of the Tea Party movement.

Rush Limbaugh, the conservative radio host, devoted the opening section of his radio show to denouncing the “preposterous” Guardian report, as Palin supporters accused Thatcher’s circle of disgracing the former prime minister.

Yes, well, but from what we hear, there’s not much left of the former PM to disgrace. From 2008:

Her husband, Denis, who was her rock throughout her decade in power, found her mental decline extremely distressing, said their daughter. Tragically, after his death from pancreatic cancer in 2003, the former prime minister had to be repeatedly reminded that he was gone.

And Thatcher’s protectors are standing firm:

The ally who criticised Palin said the Thatcher circle would not change their minds despite the backlash. “Margaret will not be meeting Sarah Palin. If necessary we will make sure that Margaret has an off day when Palin is in London.”

Good for The Anonymous Ally. Maybe those warning bells worked!

But let’s cut to the chase: Margaret Thatcher isn’t home. She hasn’t been herself for years. Insisting on a meeting — and surely, a photo op — with the Iron Lady’s shell amounts to little more than exploiting the mentally deficient.

Which, come to think of it, is par for the course for Sarah Palin.

Why is this lady running around with the Star of David? Is she part of the cult that is sending red cattle to Israel to provoke the Apocalypse by buying props for it?

@FlyingChainSaw: Have you, by chance, read The Yiddish Policemen’s Union? It uses elements of Messianic prophesy (including the ubiquitous red heifer) to great literary effect.

If she can’t meet Maggie she could always meet Katie. They have a lot in common.

@Benedick HRH KFC: It looks like a herpes incubator. Is it the equivalent of Paris Hilton on the sceptered isle?

“amounts to little more than exploiting the mentally deficient.”

That’s pretty much Caribou Barbie’s entire *career* right there – between the baby-as-prop routine to the “give me moneez for Jeebus” bit…

@Tommmcatt Be Fat, And That Be That: She’s a bit like Paris without the class. But her ex husband!!! The cross-dressing cage fighter. He puts the hub in hubba.

Thatcher’s keepers could graciously invite Palin to the house, wheel out Dame Edna Everage on a trolley, let caribou have her photo op and then show her the door. The dumb bitch would never know the difference.

@Benedick HRH KFC: Yum. Even with the repeatedly broken nose.
