Because we're still talking about Sarah Palin, Pat Buchanan “playfully” suggested Todd Palin drown Levi Johnston. Not that we condone it, but we'll take any opportunity we can get to see the world's hottest absent father without his shirt on .

Dick Cheney managed to utter an (albeit slightly equivocal) endorsement of states allowing same-sex marriages at the National Press Club today. Apparently, “freedom means freedom for everyone.”

TV BUZZ: Slate's Jonah Weiner argues that every blue-stater's favorite TV show is actually conservative. His thesis: “Liz starts from a progressive perspective before coming around to Jack's way of seeing things” and “we seem meant to accept Liz's Jack-ward drift…as part of her maturation.” The whole article (charmingly titled “I Want To GOP To There”) is worth a read, even if it makes you feel old and Republican.

POLITICS BUZZ: In just three weeks, Iowa will be the fourth American state to consider marriage legal between any two people in spite of their genitals. Sarah Palin's “Real America” just got bit more “real,” wouldn't you say?

These sweet little children hate the stimulus, they hate tax-and-spend economics, and they hate the fact that we've entrusted America to a no-good socialist President. When you see their tears, you will feel the same way.

MUSIC BUZZ: Calvin Tanella is a former construction worker from New Jersey who became so enlightened after listening to a 10-minute rant by Michael Savage, that he decided to drop everything and become Hi-Caliber, the Republican Rapper. His new album, Mr. Conservative , was influenced by the likes of conservative pundits ranging from Sean Hannity to Bill O'Reilly and hip-hop artists from Run-DMC to the Beastie Boys. In Obamanation , Tanella raps, “A Socialist in the White House, what have we done? You think Bush was bad, now the real fun has begun.” F**k it Tanella, let's do it live!

A Gallup report seems to suggest there are only five states left where republicans have a significant party-affiliation advantage. The governors of Utah and Alaska are already contenders for the republican nomination in 2012, and there may not be much other competition.

Stephen Baldwin, the mailman from Cheers, and a handful of actors I’ve never heard of want Minnesotans to think twice about electing Al Franken to the senate. The concern seems to be that he is hurting their reputation. Huh?

POLITICS BUZZ: In an effort to protect moose and caribou, the Alaskan governor has condoned the practice, in which volunteers chase wolves from above and shoot them after they’ve died of exhaustion. Palin unsuccessfully tried to have the state pay $150 for every slaughtered wolf, which was considered an “illegal use of bounty payments.” Also, it would make wearing this shirt in Alaska a huge bummer.

POLITICS BUZZ: The Republican National Committee has launched BarackBook a Facebook parody intended to draw attention to some of Obama’s lesser known political associations. His current status: “Barack is hoping to settle on an Iraq policy before November.” I say so what if Marilyn Katz sent him flair? At least he beat William Ayers at Scrabulous.

POLITICS BUZZ: Alaska’s governor is suddenly everyone’s favorite politician of 2007. A pot smoking, moose burger eating former beauty queen (Miss Wasilla 1984!) who recently posed for a Vogue shoot, Palin is the anti-Bush, popularity-wise. Update: McCain selects Sarah Palin as his VP! Crazy.
