Q. How many Sarah Palins does it take to screw in a lightbulb? A. Two! One to wander around the country devouring babies indiscriminately on a large-scale media-whoring expedition, and another to confront the first on a Boston street corner with vaguely threatening intimations that this meeting won't be their last. (Oh, and "one of her guys" to actually change the bulb.) [Video via Hardball]

There are not any funny jokes to be made about alleged sexual assault. On the other hand, this 2009 photo of alleged sexual assaulter Dominique Strauss-Kahn meeting the Obamas is pretty funny, now. Ace job with the gentle restraint there, Prez. Because you know that Dominique Strauss-Kahn! Always (allegedly) goin' nuts around the ladies (unless a court of law determines otherwise).
