Teenage Boys Flock to Sarah Palin! Resonates With Next Generation of Men.

I found this story amusing. I generally don’t link to Conservatives4Palin, but their little heartwarming story of (and I quote) “Christmas Joy” was delightfully irresistible. Americans, prepare to “have your heart warmed” and yes, your “hope for mankind” restored.

It seems that someone was so inspired by a holiday family gathering which included a group of teenage boys, that they just had to share with the fan site. Of all things on the TV that these young men wanted to watch, they picked… Sarah Palin’s Alaska. (hands on heart) Those young patriots are an inspiration for the future.

These guys knew where and when the show was on. That tells me something about the Sarah phenomena. She is resonating with a segment of society I never imagined would have a clue about her.

Sarah Palin is “resonating” with teenage boys? (Does anyone have a trophy around that we can use for best euphemism of the week?) Never in a million bazillion years would anyone expect that. I’m sure it’s the fact that their burgeoning little political minds are intrigued by the Palin phenomenon, the rugged scenery, the camping gear, learning about commercial salmon fishing, and digging for clams as part of a traditional subsistence lifestyle. Or perhaps it’s those cleverly not-so disguised nuggets of conservative politics, and Republican ideology that Sarah so deftly manages to insert in the spaces between caribou slaughter and asking Todd to drill a hole in the fence so they can check and make sure the neighbor’s not spying on them. Or, perhaps… just perhaps…

One of the boys did confess that he found Sarah’s daughter, and I’m quoting here, “HOT.” I found that reassuring in that one would expect teenage boys to be thinking about girls.

Well uhh, (cough cough) you know that um… that’s just normal. Yes, very reassuring. All’s well there you know. Huh huh huh. At least they’re not…. (looks from side to side and mouths the word in a whisper)… GAY. (grimacing and raising eyebrows)

We can almost feel them”resonating” now.

I’ll let the story take us in to the conclusion. You just enjoy.

Democrats beware. All of your attacks on Sarah Palin and your attempts to demonize her or demean her intellect are likely to backfire. You know Sarah is a genuine phenomena [sic] when you are confronted with the fact that three boys with a chance to watch anything on TV choose to watch Sarah. How’s that for a Christmas story?
