Day Six: Palin decides to leave the rest of her cabinet appointments to her husband Todd because she's too busy trying to locate the fifth commandment in the Constitution. Todd begrudgingly takes time off from shooting random animals with an Uzi and merges the remaining cabinet departments into one cabinet department called The Department of Everything Else.

   

Secretary of State O'Donnell cancels a trip to Germany because she misplaces her broom and refuses to use a mop. "That's okay," she tells the press. "I don't really like to travel anyway and Asia is so far away."

 

Tweet: J. Mcain wnts job in cbnet. Yeh rite! Duchbg.

   

Day Seven : Palin meets with the Prime Minister of India and, in his honor, wears a Cherokee headdress and tries to engage him in a conversation about Geronimo. 

 

 

Later that day, Palin invites the President of Antarctica to lunch, but no one replies. Outraged, Palin breaks off diplomatic relations with Antarctica and instructs the Secretary of Writing Coherent English to "send the president of Antarctica a nasty letter."

 

Tweet: Cant wait 4 halween. wil make cbnt wear cstumes. LOL

   

Day Eight : After a lunch of moose liver pate and reindeer a l'orange, Palin signs two bills, passed by Congress. One of them mandates the placement of a nuclear power plant on Mt. St. Helens; the other orders that chicken a la king be taken off the Congressional Dining Room menu because, as Eric Cantor puts it, "we live in a democracy, plus it'll reduce the deficit."
