Palin has still to answer the Trig mater/pater-nity question which brought the exposure of her daughter's private life to the front of the media buzz. No denial, just a new story.
She appears to be a seasoned liar.
But McCain using her, her supposed beliefs about "life", her frying the bacon up in the pan schtick, her "reformer" rep, well, what a waste of our time! Less than 60 days to the election and he throws this heartbeat-away VP-pick to us? So he doesn't have to continue to show his own ineptness and ignorance? Knowing she will crash and burn (knowing what THAT feels like)???
Colossal arrogance! He knows she will have to back out. He doesn't care. This is just a script, and he doesn't even have to memorize or even know his lines!
So who's directing this episode? "We, the people," sure aren't in the cast. And I am really mad! Because I feel powerless to effect any change. Votes, letters,e-mails to Congress (really a waste), signs, marches, bumper-stickers, call-in talk-radio,blogging, yelling, money, petition-signing, house-parties, rallies...been there, done that, doesn't work and no media coverage.
Anyone else mad? And today, they freaking arrested Amy Goodman in St. Paul!
