...Palin shared the bill at the black-tie dinner of the 124-year old club with Rep. Barney Frank (D-Mass.). She was joined by her husband, Todd Palin, and her parents.

Palin -- a potential 2012 presidential candidate -- is touring the nation promoting her memoir, Going Rogue: An American Life. Frank, the chairman of the House Financial Services Committee, just published a biography titled Barney Frank: The Story of America's Only Left-Handed, Gay, Jewish Congressman.

At the reception, Palin mingled and posed for pictures. She told me, when I asked, that her purse was made from otter. Todd Palin explained to me his cummerbund was based on the Big Dipper and North Star in the Alaskan flag.

Palin's speech was loaded with zingers -- aimed at her and the journalists. Palin, John McCain's running mate, had some interesting help in crafting her speech, enlisting Eric Schnure, a former speechwriter for former Vice President Al Gore...

This gorgeous, feminine woman has greater testicular mettle than the fairy man standing beside her.

Thanks for the pingy, SW.

Look at the beeyotch (NO not Barney) the one behind Sarah in th shot. Staring Palin down (shoe envy? PDS? Regressing to HS ‘Mean Girls’ status?). Hmmmph. Love to know who the eye dagger thrower is.

Well, if standing that close to Sarah didn’t “straighten” him out, nothing will.

I could say something to that, but it would be obscene and probably would get me kicked out. Suffice to say Bawney must have had a very fulFILLing night. (ooops)

I’m surprised he didn’t get cross-burn standing that close. You know how gays hate the right, the light and the Christ.

Yech. I’m sure Sarah prayed beforehand, so she’ll be protected from any ....vermin that might try to hop off of Fwanky. That’s probably what his look is all about. He looks like he’s fighting being exorcised....haha!

LOL well that look on his face reminded me of well, ya know, constipation. Maybe he needs some Metamucil. You couldn’t pay me to shake Barney Frank’s hand.

The women behind her are looking at Sarah’s otter purse. I have to admit it’s quite weird..on top of being otter. I know...I know...it’s different in Alaska, they use a lot of fur up there.

I wonder if Sarah needs a purse consultant because if she does then I’m perfect for the job.
