Sarah Palin’s Heavy Metal Parking Lot

One of the classic cult films is the 1986 documentary, Heavy Metal Parking Lot. It chronicles trashed Judas Priest fans partying it up before a concert in a parking lot somewhere in the hinterlands of America. While waiting, mullet-clad fans scream their praises of Rob Halford and the Priest. We watch and snicker with extreme ironic detachment. Heavy Metal Parking Lot summed up a moronic era that we look back on in amazement that people like this actually existed. 

Watching the You Tube videos of the people camping out for Sarah Palin book signings has almost the  strange, familiar Americana flavor not seen since the likes of Heavy Metal Parking Lot. Sure it’s a different climate in America, but yet you’ll find similar lines of moronic fans screaming blind clueless support for their idol. Once again we snicker at these poor fools with smug ironic detachment (Except the scary part is it’s here and NOW.)

Here’s a taste of the groupies at  Sarah Palin’s Heavy Metal Parking Lot:

As irony served, a woman in Heavy Metal Parking Lot declared she’d like to jump Rob Halford’s bones. Little did she know that Rob Halford was (is) a big, gay leather daddy. It’s funny now with both distance and acquired information. What secrets are yet to be told from straight-shootin’ Sarah Palin?

The full story has yet to be told, but much like how she quit on the State of Alaska, she also quit on a crowd of over 300 people in Noblesville Indiana who waited for hours to have their books signed. Is this how they screamed when she quit office in Alaska?Perhaps, in this circumstance, she didn’t want to be a lame duck book signer?  Once again, please welcome Sarah–the quitter:
