Sad commentary on my way of making ballot choices, but if Sarah Palin had half the hot body that all these internet Photoshop pixel jockeys keep sticking her head on, I'd probably vote for her.

I'm surprised anyone really , and seriously listens to her, or anyone like her. I don't even have to read the article to know it was more firebrand rhetoric, boilerplate, emotionally charged babble, and generally catered to the far right in a feel good kinda way.

These people (the far right) from everything i've ever seen, are devoid of logic, reason, and practicality. It's always emotionally charged rhetoric and little else. This is what has pushed me away from the right and more towards center. Logic, reason, and practicality, in my mind is what i want in government. Not "feel good" talk and rhetoric.

They open their mouth like they have, and i move further away. Now, i don't even listen anymore. All crediblity in my eyes, is lost. Not that the left is much better, but they're rhetoric level is nowhere near the level of the rights. Which is the only thing that makes the left remotely tolerable.

No I didn't. I said plenty say she is stupid, dumb, unintelligent however she still draws a crowd. Nowhere did I say popularity implies intelligence. If that is the case then your Jersey Shore comment makes Snooky a friggin genius.

I guess the whole thing i dont understand about the Wisconsin situation is:

why do government employees deserve more rights and privileges than privately employed individuals?

Why should taxpayer money be used to supplement the retirement of a government employee who put almost nothing into his own pension fund?

Why does a government employee, protected by so many laws and regulations pertaining to occupational health and safety need collective bargaining rights that expand to anything beyond wage?

And just wondering, is there actually anyone here that respects her? As a human being? Family person? Mother?
Not wanting to stir up a hornet's nest here but, i kind of feel for her, regardless of her lack of political prowess or know-how.
The ridicule and sexist jokes and remarks she cops is pretty bewildering.
Sure she's good-looking but does it really warrant the inuendos and sexual conotations?
Kind of shallow really.
My 2 cents worth.
