Sarah Who? The slipper didn't fit the princess from Alaska and now she is pissed! The "pit bull" from Wasilla is looking less attractive with each passing day. She has single handedly turned little Katie Couric into a ruthless,cutthroat,muckraking reporter who ambushed her and derailed her rise to one of the top posts in the land simply by asking her a seemingly innocuous question about her reading habits. She stammered like an idiot after being beaned by a simple softball question. Now in an effort to show her true conservative bonefides, she rails against the "media elite" and for good measure the "bored,pathetic bloggers". Like most conservatives what she really hates are independent thinkers. If you have learned how to think instead of what to think, you can see through the smoke screen that conservatives put forth in lieu of meaningful public policy and that always infuriates people of her ilk. If they can keep the so called "values voters" enraged by obfuscating the truth and spreading mis-information about social issues they can keep us divided and help insure their own continued existence. If on the other hand progressive thinking people are elected to lead this country, there is a chance we will begin to solve some of the issues that divide us and become a more perfect union like we are supposed to.
GOP Scandals
Evidence is trickling in every day highlighting the corruption deeply ingrained in the Republican party. Prominent party leaders and many of their underlings have their panties in a wad trying to decide whether to lie to the various courts of inquiry they are facing. Jack Abramoff is trying to decide who or what to give up. Testify truthfully about his dealings with Tom DeLay, or lose his freedom on perjury charges. Even the indominable Dick Cheney has to be worried about the consequences of his actions, perhaps for the first time in his life. Just wait and see what happens when the truth comes out about our torturing practices. You can't change established law on a whim. With republicans in charge, America is losing the respect of the civilized world.
