Well, the headline isn’t quite as catchy as “Where Were You Circumcised?: State Department Passport Application is Impossible“, but, I thought that going with “Trig Palin may need Andrew Sullivan’s permission to get a passport” might be a bit confusing to those unfamiliar with Excitable Andy’s Trigerism. Anyhow, moving on to the originator of the […]
