MacPalin, or, The Scott(Brown)ish Tragedy
MacPalin, or the Scott(Brown)ish Tragedy, written by ShakesPalin, first performed on the stage of Twitter.
From the Boston Globe: Sarah Palin, in an unexpected poke at Senator Scott Brown, said that while Massachusetts may “put up with’’ the GOP lawmaker and “some of the antics,’’ Republicans in states across the nation wouldn’t tolerate his more moderate views and compromising ways. “But up here in Alaska, and so many places across the US, where we have a pioneering, independent spirit, and we have an expectation that our representatives in D.C. will respect the will of the people and the intelligence of the people, well, up here, we wouldn’t stand for that,’’ she said.
Let the play begin.
MacPalin, or The Scott(Brown)ish Tragedy, a play of pioneering independent spirit
MacPalin: Foul whisperings are abroad. Unnatural antics do breed Scott MacBrown’s unnatural troubles: liberal leanings, weak compromises.
MacPalin: I have given suck, know tender feeling 2 the babe, but I’d pluck my nipple from boneless gums before voting with Democrats.
MacPalin: Scott MacBrown, screw your courage to the sticking-place and respect the will of the people.
MacPalin: Oh, Scott MacBrown, I do fear thy nature is too full of the milk o’ human kindess.
MacPalin: But up here in Alaska, our deaf pillows discharge no secrets. We have a pioneering spirit, bloody, bold, and resolute.
MacPalin: “Unsex me here,” Scott MacBrown cries, and the real Republican replies, “Already been done!”
MacPalin: Laugh to scorn the power of man, for none of woman born shall harm MacPalin.
MacBrown: I was not of woman born but birthed by Mama Grizzly, and untimely ripped from her den.
MacBrown: Though grizzly born, I’m 100% American and have US birth certificate (just looking ahead to 2016, or 2012—too soon?)
MacPalin: Lay on, MacBrown, and damned be he who first cries, “Pls refudiate!”
All exit, pursued by a mama grizzly bear.
