Sarah Palin Supporters and their Strange Hobbies
Sarah Palin’s fan club are just weird.
This discovered at the excellent unrepentanthippie blog under the title “You want Creepy” Could also have been called People with too much time on their hands.
Probably for the first time in history, my sympathy is with the half baked Alaskan on this one. Must be pretty freaky to be confronted by someone who has gone out of their way to look like you. On second thoughts I take that back, for an attention whore of Palin’s magnitude their is no such thing as bad recognition.
This following gem appeared in the comments thread of unrepentant old hippies post and this is an instant classic found on the Zazzle shopping site.
A few details lost due to size:
The thing her feet are on has Saul Alinsky written on it – the person that very few teabagger/Palinites had heard of prior to this year. Even if they had they probably thought he was George Soros under a different disguise.
The thing in her hands carries the phrase Death Panels – nothing else just Death Panels.
One of the badges says 4 another has a confederate
Now this one is the most disturbing – the Latin at the top under the name, para bellum means prepare for war . This is normally the second half of a quote, the first half being, “If you want peace “. Interesting that the pond life who designed this didn’t even bother to temper his blood lust with the modifying part of the quote.
Bellum was also the name of a bullet manufactured in Germany around the time of the first world war.

As for the pose, dress, the highly visible fat pole thing she is sitting on and serpent, well it doesn’t take Freud or a genius to work out that the artist has some sad little Palin fantasies seasoned with some Nazi fettishism going on.

We have a few more comments on this peculiar poster here – most notably, its curious appropriate of imagery of the Virgin Mary.
Note, for instance – Sarah has a halo?

Sort of picked up on the virgin Mary thing but missed the halo completely. Kicking myself for that one.
Further thought – I would put the artist in his 60s – imagery very reminiscent of 40s 50s propaganda type art across both America and Europe.
