The normally lucid scaeagles is making my brain hurt with the non-sequiturs.

- You still haven't acknowledged that the Palin quote about the First Amendment has jack-all to do with Joe the Plumber. Your dodge has been extremely successful, as the conversation has gone plumber-crazy since then. (Am I wrong? Really, go back and look! Have I missed something?)

- What about Michelle needs to come out? This isn't about the suppressed "whitey" tape, is it?

- Obama's answer to JoePlumb has been given huge amounts of exposure, criticism and commentary. I myself called it a bacon-wrapped gift to McCain just a few posts back. What more do you need?

I have absolutely no problem with Joe's big question. He had every right to ask, and I totally see that the answer he got plays right into the reasons conservatives don't trust Obama's economic goals. Hunky dory.

Now give me satisfaction about the Palin quote, willya? I mean, it really does sound like she thinks she should be above criticism and the press should shut up, right? Am I crazy?
