Just when I thought I could go to bed...

...I came across this.

Sarah Palin and her virtual burqa have me and my friends retching into our handbags. She’s such a power-mad, backwater beauty-pageant casualty, it’s easy to write her off and make fun of her. But in reality I feel as horrified as a ghetto Jew watching the rise of National Socialism.

Well, yeah. Of course. Not wanting to abort her own baby = Bergen Belsen for you, dude. And being a backwater beauty-pageant casualty, of course. Hey, wait: doesn't that make her a member of the Victim-American community?

The (Washington) Post’s Marc Fisher went to the big McCain/Palin rally in Fairfax County Wednesday and came away convinced that, “In this time of ‘American Idol,’ bedroom bloggers and the belief that experience, knowledge and education don’t necessarily mean a whole lot, Palin is a symbol, a statement that anyone can make it if he or she really tries.


“In this hyperdemocratized society,” Fisher continued, “the national conviction that anyone can succeed is morphing into a belief that experience and knowledge may almost be disqualifying credentials.”

"Anyone can make it if he...really tries"? That is Sooooooooooooooooo fascist, man, that saying so should be, like, a felony. Call in McCain-Feingold to lock that guy up.

No question: Palin is at least as qualified as John Edwards, and probably more so. So what is really the Dem problem with her? Oh...she's a...a...a...capitalist...?
