"Mr Shankley."


If you find poetry in my words, my sweet, then how can I deny you?

Great thanks. Ummm, I gonna add a period at the end. I don't know if that was some kind of artist flare or something else, but ... it doesn't look good.

BB, you're sexist for even questioning her. You sexist woman, you.

Honestly, I don't think Palin has the mental capacity for introspection. I want to give her the benefit of the doubt, but I can't just picture it with her. She's cut from the "America has nothing to apologize for" cloth. If something were to happen to Obama, she'd say that was sad and move on five seconds later.

I would expect the first person to question himself would be McCain. It was clear that things didn't go the way he wanted, and despite how much his campaign disgusted me, I think he would be horrified.

Ugh, looks like she's eyeing 2012 (in a very indirect way). But apart from that, this line is golden:

"I'm like, OK, God, if there is an open door for me somewhere, this is what I always pray, I'm like, don't let me miss the open door," Palin said in an interview with Fox News on Monday.

I mean, like, ohmigod! Like, if that door is, like, so totally open, then I'm going to be, like, I gotta go for it, dontcha know?!

(Sorry, couldn't resist. )

I agree with you Sean that Palin probably even lacks the ability of introspection in that sense. I still feel uncomfortable 'hounding' a relatively wet-behind-the-ears (ex-)candidate, but it truly beggars belief how moronic this one turned out to be.

I honestly have to wonder if Republican strategists deliberately chose the most foolish, dimwitted female candidate they could possibly find as a way of sticking two fingers up to the prospect of breaking through the glass ceiling and womens representation in politics generally. The whole thing almost seems like a tasteless joke by them.

i think it's okay to hound an inexperienced candidate when that inexperienced candidate is willing to put her quest for power above the welfare of the nation she intends to represent in the second highest office in the land. her machiavellian attempts to bypass the necessary experience one should gain before striving for that seat of power leave her totally open to whatever valid criticism you can lob her way, regardless of how harsh it may be.

she knows she's inexperienced. she knows she's sneaking in the back door of a club she would never be admitted to otherwise. she deserves to be raked over the coals for her actions.

i honestly think the republican strategists thought they would get away with it. the modern republican party is marked by one distinct quality: hubris. i think they knew they were trying to pull an eliza doolittle here and pass off a mealy-mouthed backwater hillbilly as a seasoned statesman. they were overconfident in their ability to use spin and the social psychology of party-wide victimization to manipulate the public into believing the illusion they were trying to create.

and i honestly think they had no idea that she would be too headstrong and arrogant to submit to their image control. not to mention that after this many years of republican style-over-substance shenanigans the public has gotten suspicious of their spin.

FU sarah! don't bitch about how people talk about you, you unrepentant social climber

andrew sullivan says it best:

This deluded and delusional woman still doesn't understand what happened to her; still has no self-awareness; and has never been forced to accept her obvious limitations. She cannot keep even the most trivial story straight; she repeats untruths with a ferocity and calm that is reserved only to the clinically unhinged; she has the educational level of a high school drop-out; and regards ignorance as some kind of achievement.

If true, the world really will end in 2012 (or, umm, January 2013)
