Made for Reality TV
I was sitting at breakfast today with some friends and the news was on. It was all about Sarah Palin's fashion sense. Now I don't deny that she's attractive and she can do a darn good job reading a speech someone else wrote from a teleprompter (sportscasting really paid off on that one), but what the heck does that have to do with leading the country? We're going to elect the leaders of our country based on a fashion show and a lot of invective? We are in the worst times, economically, ethically, and environmentally, that I've seen in my lifetime and everyone's excited about a cheerleader? I mean, someone's "elite" because he can write his own speech? I don't want a puppet for president - we've already had one and we're in a serious pickle because of it. Anyway, here's an interesting little article from one of Sarah Palin's fellow townspeople.

I hate to post a useless comment, but I agree with you on all fronts here. I hate that criticism of Palin on these and other points gets dismissed as sexism.
I think that pushes us all back from however far we've come in the struggle for equality.
I loved this post because it was well put.
A bulldog with lipstick is funny, endearing even. But we don't want it running our country.
