Good Fences Make Good Neighbors, Bad Fences Make Your Neighbor Sarah Palin

Being from a rural area, I have seen some half-assed, white trash building projects in my day. Usually, though, the people who build them have an excuse: they must fix things with baling wire, toothpaste and duct tape, because they are Poor. So I'm at a loss to explain this fence that the Palins recently put up to thwart the journalist living next door. The woman is clearly making money these days, since people are apparently more than willing to pay for Shrill Ignorant Shrieking Harpies to make their eardrums bleed, so money can't be the reason this fence was apparently built over a tree stump. Sheer Wasillabilly laziness (and/or graft; perhaps this is the fence the "lowest bidder" built) is the only plausible explanation.

Now, if she'd hired a Mexican, that job would have been done right.
