Season of the Witch

Gentle Readers, it's been a overwhelming couple of news days, hasn't it? Yes, with the news that Clay Aiken is gay, oh, how will we cope? Then there's the news of those 90210 girls being way too thin.

Wait, there was other news? Oh yeah, McCain suspending his campaign, that was big. Let's not forget the other news: Apparently a couple of years ago Governor Palin was involved with a prayer/healing/ deal where the minister asked her to be protected from witchcraft. Yes, witchcraft, baby. Frank wouldn't approve, let me tell you.

Since this is such a serious issue, I've decided to investigate even further. I've asked several well known witches how they feel about this recent campaign issue. Be prepared, their remarks are not for the delicate mortal.

Glinda, the good witch of the North-Now is this Sarah Palin a good witch or a bad witch? I'm not sure. I don't like the fact she wants to drill things for oil. What is oil, anyway? Can't people get around with their brooms? People should travel in a pink bubble, like me!

Samantha Stevens-Well! Where does that Sarah Palin get off, anyway? I mean, yes I've tried not to practice my powers, but they have come in handy if Darrin is in danger of losing an account, or if Mother gets in trouble, or if Aunt Clara gets in trouble, or if Tabitha gets in trouble. The only thing I can't figure out is why Darrin changed so suddenly five years after I married him.

Endora, Samantha's mother-This Sarah Palin creature is such a mortal it's disgraceful. She's worse than my son in law Dullwood. The woman doesn't have any pizzazz. Look at me! I manage to look stylish with my blue eye shadow, my caftans, you can hardly tell I'm a grandmother, can you? In my opinion, she needs a makeover and to wear more bright colors.

Dr. Bombay-Why are you bothering me? I'm busy on a safari! Besides, I'm a warlock, not a witch! Oh, that Palin woman. Hmm. Yes, an odd case. Well, if she needs to protection from witchcraft, I recommend not going near Salem, Massachusetts. I also recommend not hanging out with black cats. Cheerio!

Witchypoo-Well, I don't get it. Does this Sarah Palin lady have that magic flute I've always been looking for? You know, the irritating flute Jimmy has? She doesn't? Then what do I want with her? I've got better things to do!

Sabrina the Teenage Witch-I don't know why Govenor Palin would be scared of witches. Witches are not so bad. I mean, the only things I've done is get a car for Archie, and I made sweets appear and float in the air when The Archies sang "Sugar Sugar" That's about it, though. Honest. Betty and Veronica already dislike me for no good reason. I don't need another woman not liking me just because I'm a witch or that I'm pretty.

Wendy, witch in training-Gosh, I don't know why the governor would be afraid of me. I'm not a scary witch, honest. Just ask Casper. Besides, I liked it when her daughter licked her hand and patted her baby brother's head.

Lucy Van Pelt-I am not a witch! I dressed up like one for Halloween one year! Well, I'll tell you something about that Governor Palin. Does she really think she should be scared of witches? She should be scared of money problems and stuff. Plus because of the money problems I'll never get what I really want for Christmas: Real Estate! Witches aren't that bad, just misunderstood. Okay, that's five cents please!

There you have it, thoughts from witches or people who have dressed up as witches. I rest my case. Blessed be!
