1. OMG, I pointed that out to my boyfriend last night!

That's EXACTLY how I view her ... or Nicole Kidman's character
in that movie that was based on Pam Smart's story.

2. Great piece!

"On a night when Republicans did everything but belittle people who can spell for being elitist, the R's also made some rather remarkable promises. Speaking of McCain, Mitt Romney proclaimed "radical violent Islam is evil, and he will defeat it!" Yeah, right after you reopen all those auto plants in Michigan, Mitt."

"She offered almost nothing of substance. She's positive we should be paranoid. She mocked constitutional rights. Well screw you, Nananook of the Nazis. The stuff about putting the governor's jet on E-Bay was cute but other than that she did what reactionaries always accused hippies of doing -- she tore down but she didn't build up. She did something that no hippie was ever accused of doing, she fortified the luxury bunker where the rich and powerful hide. The creepy thing is that she did it in the guise of an American every woman. She sold herself as a great administrator, even though she couldn't manage to keep a carwash open in the the muddiest state in the union. . "


"This is not to say they won't get away with it. My pal John Joslin points out that Palin only needs to pull off this act for the next 60 days. She also serves an important function with all her snarkiness: she distracts us from the doddering McCain who can stay backstage and get a few extra huffs out of the oxygen mask while she creates the diversion."

3. I just told my moderator over lunch today, "It turns out I'm an elitist snob.

Because when I watched her last night, all I could think was 'trailer park trash'. Not proud of it, but there you are." He nearly did a spittake, and replied, "If the most empathetic person I know only sees negtives, there's a problem!" I thanked him for the compliment.

8. New gambit: the "Lib'rul Media" attacking the poor, dear thing

"For now, if reporters dig up facts that contradict her assertions, she'll sell herself as a martyr in the great struggle against the Marxist media."

Shoot, they were already trotting out that line last night, in spades. :puke:
