My favorite bit from that Reason interview with the pro-Palin Real ID activist is this part:

Matt Welch: I was just talking to someone who claimed to have knowledge of Alaska to some degree, and they say where Sarah Palin comes from it's the equivalent of Humboldt or Chico in California, like, of course, you know, she'd have a Girls Gone Wild phase, and smoking pot. Is this just wishcasting, or what can you tell us about her geographical background?

Bill Scannell: So the Mat-Su Valley, you know, Matanuska-Susitna Valley, otherwise known as Upper Wingnuttia, is full of right-wing libertarian militia fundamendalist Christian gun-toting, pot-growing dope-heads.

Welch: Awesome.

Scannell: Yeah. If Jerry Falwell rolled his own, you would have the Mat-Su Valley...
