Straight from the Obvious Bag

[unbibium]

Someone finally cobbled together a Michael Palin for President video. It's only, what, a week after VPILF.com went live? But OK then.

What we need now is a counter-Michael Palin attack ad. That'll be easy to do, since one of Palin's strengths as a character actor was his ability to lie in an over-the-top transparent fashion. Off the top of my head, he played...

• A barber that was clearly disturbed by the idea of cutting hair,
• A pet shop owner that clearly sold John Cleese a dead parrot,
• A smuggler that was clearly nowhere near Spain,
• A legitimate businessman that clearly was not delivering a Chinese "watch" to a client around midnight.
• A boarder at a bed and breakfast who was clearly Heinrich Himmler.
• At least two characters, not named above, who let the wrong word slip out, only to punctuate it by covering his mouth and shouting "OH, WHAT A GIVEAWAY!"

I'm going to have to comb through a lot of DVD's to find all that.
