VideoJew sent me a fun little Sarah Palin game from Polit Tsk Tsk Tsk that reveals what my country name would be if I had been born to Sarah Palin. You ready?

Bush Gator Palin.

I love it. It’s like the name formulator knew the inner me. Much better than my mafia name (Monkey Shines Emilio) or my gangsta name (Straight Lumpynutz).

Get our your life insurance, your gun, and your credit card, because we’re in for a rocky future.
