    The intellectual depth of this article can be summed up...

    ...by the sidebar link's summary: "Obama, U2, lesbo porn".

    Palin and Paglia deserve each other. Similar strategy: whenever someone disagrees with you, call them elitists. Easy peasy!

    And am I the only one who suspects that those letters are not from real people? And that Paglia writes them herself, painstakingly tailoring them to her own particular, ridiculous idiom?

    We did get a talk radio mention, yes, but no shout-out to her Italian working-class roots. It's at least one or the other, if not both. That's how she proves she's a "Real Murican".
