... over at Lex's place, on the subject of Miss Alaska, her recent editorial in the WaPo, and Leftie reax to same:
OldT6FlyerYup. What Ol' T-6 Flyer said. It's well-known in certain circles that I'm a Palin skeptic even though I haven't posted a whole helluva lot on the subject here in the home space.
The best thing about Sarah Palin is the every time she speaks the reaction from the left is so over the top that any rational person has to say: “What could possibly be that interesting?” and proceeds to tune into the Sarah Palin channel which, even if she’s not totally your cup of tea, comes across as a reasonable sort, especially in comparison to her tormentors, who are found writhing in the corner, foaming at the mouth, and generally making asses of themselves. As a bonus the so called “women’s movement” groups get exposed as, not all that interested in promoting women at all seeing how their silence at the obvious attacks on a leading WOMAN go strangely unanswered.
So no matter what you might think of Sarah Palin you’ve just got to love the apoplexy she causes on the left. If she didn’t exist somebody would need to invent her for the cause.
Which is by way of saying I've engaged a lot on the subject of La Palin in comments on other folks' blogs. I've yet to drink the Arctic Princess' Kool-Aid and I truly believe it's way too damned early to be talking about 2012 presidential candidates. But... two things: (a) I simply LOVE the way she makes the Lefties go completely bonkers and (b) I totally enjoy crossing swords with zealots of any persuasion. And who knows? I might jump on the Palin bandwagon if she keeps on making sense and causing coronaries on the Left. Especially the latter.
