I was sure that in this week's column our Camille was going to leap to the defense of Joe the Plumber, as a shining example of American masculinity, who uses language in a joyously experimental be-bop manner, or some such bvllsh!t. She would then explain that if you think his remarks, about how the media should not report on the war in Gaza, for example, are totally idiotic, then you must be hopelessly elitist, and therefore evil, because the nasty elitists were mean to her at Yale. (The fact that maybe they were hard on her because she doesn't know the difference between a statement of opinion and a reasoned argument defending it is another discussion for another day).
But it seems that Joe the Plumber will have to wait for his glorification, because she's still trying to punctuate Sarah Palin's bvllsh!t to make it looks as though the woman was trying to say something rather than to bluff her way out of answering a question.
Yes, it's Camille who's trying to punctuate Sarah's word salad. Is anyone here seriously dumb enough to think she isn't writinge those "letters" to herself?
