A gift certificate to the Sarah Palin Channel. A special gift for that special someone....who you secretly hate.

Okay this story come from that lunatic over at US for Palin, that poor bastard who still believes, for reasons that defy all logic, that Palin may still actually run for President.

Here is what was posted on Wednesday:

Sarah Palin Channel members can give their friends and loved ones a six-month or one-year subscription at 50% off with Sarah Palin Channel Gift Certificates. Prices are $30 and $50 respectively. 

Some Palinistas have not joined the Channel, citing the cost. While the gift certificate is in effect, this is a good time to get your favorite Palinista on board. 

Only current Sarah Palin Channel subscribers may purchase Sarah Palin Channel gift certificates. The offer was released 5:59 PM EST yesterday for “Today Only” but appears to be still in effect….we don’t know for how much longer.

I am going to guessing indefinitely. 

I was asking myself, after reading this, it there was anybody that I disliked enough that I would buy this for them, and the answer is no.

I mean sure there is that one guy who threw my Peter Pan lunch pail into the garbage when I was in the third grade, but I really just wanted him to get hit by a car, not be subjected to the kind of caterwauling that might drive him mad.

Then there was that girl who stood me up in the tenth grade, but she ended up getting pregnant and had to get married before graduation to a guy in the Army. After which she had to spend several years away from her family living overseas.

Besides I slept with her best friend.

So no there is really nobody that I dislike enough to  inflict this "gift" on them.

Here was my favorite part of the post:

The Sarah Palin Channel Gift Certificate is a sign that the Channel is expanding.

Clearly an expert in marketing. Because nothing says "We're successful" like begging your handful of subscribers to buy gift certificates for their friends and families.

You can also tell how successful the "channel" is by how much content is being given away for free, such as this recent video of Palin pretending to cook. (You can tell how much she respects her fans by the fact that she just threw her wig on over the remains of her hair without even trying to make it blend together.)

But then again these days it is really hard to get a hold of a good chunk of coal for that naughty boy or girl's Christmas stocking. Perhaps this would be a reasonable substitute. 

I can hear the marketing ploy now. "The Sarah Palin Channel gift certificate. That'll teach'em!"
