The random political thoughts thread (Part Deux)

I know I should be ignoring Sarah Palin entirely...but I can't help it.

I've enjoyed watching her squirm, trying to maintain her conservative credentials while being an activist for the first thing I agree with her on.

Then there's the teabagger speech, where she made fun of Obama for his reliance on teleprompters while A) reading her speech off a piece of paper, B) having been given the soft ball questions for the post speech press conference beforehand to review, and C) even having been given the soft ball questions beforehand to review, still needing to refer to notes written on her hand to answer.

You know, if the end result of Sarah Palin being put on the national stage is that the nutbags that idolize her are siphoned into some impotent independent party of nutjobs, maybe it's a good thing.

It would sure be entertaining. (Unless they actually won!)

Did you see her interview with Glenn Beck where she seemed to have a hard time coming up with a name when asked who her favorite "founding father" was?

I loved this bit they did on Jimmy Kimmel: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lAPWD-PR_FA
