I wonder what, exactly, you'd expect an objective source to say about the essence of love. "It's everything except that red rose parfum crap. Man that stuff stinks. Ignore Ashley, it's just the crack talking."

My goodness, I'm pretty damn conservative, but I really really really really dislike Sarah Palin. She is screwing up the image of a female republican. STFU already.

In CNN's coverage of her speech just now, I saw a man saying they love her because she represents "what a woman should be like". In other news, I just threw up in my mouth.

Wikipedia reveals Ashley Judd to be 40 years old. She's also got an impressive history of films. At what point does the term "starlet" fail to apply, if not here?

If Palin were using it to reference Judd, I find it pejorative. It's one thing to use it in reference to Disney's latest sweetheart or a 19-year-old adult film star, but Judd?

I'm starting to hate this word as much as "cougar." I mean, it also sounds like "cutlet."

@JerseyGrrrl: My dad was describing an older woman/younger man couple to me this weekend and announced, "She's a panther." Usually, my dad knowing and fucking up a slang term means it's well on its way to collapsing in on itself like a dying star. Fingers crossed that this is the case for "cougar." (Although I do appreciate facetious use of it.)

Sarah Palin is the queen of double-talk. She slams the 'liberal' media but she owes her very existence to the media. To the annoyance of just about every sensible human being on the planet. I've resented every second spent on Sarah Palin ever since she crawled out from under her rock. And she (and her family) has been allowed to get away with murder. Do the same folks who referred to eleven year old Malia as a 'ghetto slut' view Palin's unwed mother of a daughter as the REAL ghetto slut? She didn't even marry her baby daddy. Time and again Palin has been given a pass by the media and the general public. This woman is DANGEROUS. Criticism of her is the same as criticizing the men and women who have put themselves in harms way? Where is the outrage? Why isn't she being called out for disgracing the troops?

The lunatic fringe is calling the shots. Just because the right guy won the election doesn't mean the fight is over.

The only good news is the hope that Palin will have to spend some time writing her book. Imagine her and Todd trying to figure out how to spell 'cat'.

"delicate, tiny, very talented celebrity starlets"

Somehow, this offended me just as much as everything else. So because a woman is physically small, she's "delicate"? And she can't speak out on issues important to her? That kind of "rhetoric" rubs this wolf loving, Alaskan glacier hiking, tiny, not at all delicate girl the wrong way.

She kinda reminds me of Michael Scott in that way.

@CherryAmes_CruiseNurse: I thought she was either trying to insert a blind item into her speech, like "guess which starlet I'm talking about, Hint: she's delicate."

or

She was saying, they're so delicate to make you feel sorry for them. Which also makes no sense but then neither does palin.

I think, for me, the most distressing thing about Sarah Palin's success has nothing to do with her politics (although they are extremely concerning) but the fact that someone who is clearly delusional and has absolutely no grasp on things like real life and common sense has gotten so far in the political realm. I mean, a lot of clueless, self-deluded people have held office, but I feel like they at least understood basic concepts like, oh, I don't know, no matter what you do but particularly when you put yourself and your family in the public eye, PEOPLE ARE GOING TO BE CRITICAL OF YOU, and you just have to suck it up and take it along with the praise given to you. You can't waste your time and everyone else's trying to talk people out of disliking you. As most people learn in early adolescence, you cannot be everyone's friend. Ever. Not everybody is going to like you, and you can't spend your life freaking out about it. She has the psychological and emotional development of someone who's just hit puberty.

What's even more terrifying about this is that she's wildly popular for a female politician. Not to generalize, but I think her voters must be bat-shit, and many of them must like their women in power to be unintimidating, underinformed, inarticulate, and emotionally stunted at a middle school level. So, then, these people who are afraid of strong women end up winning (or at least they think they do) whether she succeeds or fails. If she succeeds, there is even less of a place for strong, smart women in national politics, because she creates a new mold; if she fails, they'll use her failure as illogical justification for keeping women out of politics.

Luckily, I have enough faith in this country and even the Republican party (words I never thought I'd type) to trust that she will never hold the presidency.

@kellieherson: In regards to your first paragraph; in 2002 my father said to me that he used to always say Ronald Regan was the worst president America could ever have. But at that point in time, he was contemplating writing Regan a letter of apology, because clearly G.W. Bush was a horse of a different color. Dad always told me never to claim Bush was the worst it could get, because the galaxy would just prove me wrong.

For the record, I never said Bush was the worst. Which is good, because I think Palin makes him look like a smart, natural leader. Thanks Dad.

@kellieherson: I at least like to think that she is wildly popular only in the sense that it is wild to me than she is popular even one teeny bit. Her fans are extremely vocal, obviously as divorced from reality as she is, and have no qualms about showing off their ignorance, creating the impression that she has a larger following than she does (please God let that be true). Ironically, my faith that she will never be the leader of the country is based entirely on the Republicans. I'm related to some pretty devoted ones, and while almost all of them bought into the idea that she was treated unfairly by that durn liberal media and some of them even think she is a good person (based on WHAT btw I will never comprehend), they have all said they would never vote for her. Not to mention: a) she actually believes her own hype and does not understand the extent to which she will not be supported by her own party when she is running against members of it b) she is a fucking moron and clearly insane (just had to work that in there because of the hatred, the burning burning hatred) c)she's proven that she believes in nasty campaigns and to guess how well that's going to work for her please see a & b.

My favorite part of the whole thing is when the NY Times pointed out someone wearing a shirt that said she was a Palintologist. Which was defined as "someone who studies Palin and shares her conservative values, Maverick attitude and American style."

Everytime I hear someone say that Sarah Palin is an incredible public speaker I cringe. She's not. She's just not. She whips a crowd of blind supporters into a frenzy with colloquialism's and knowing winks. Great speakers have something to say. They move people. They are heard and understood on both sides of the political aisle. Sarah Palin just needs to Shush. (That's right, that was an official librarian shush for Sarah Palin)

@vivianthelibrarian: I always wonder whose public speaking skills they're comparing hers to-- I imagine it is mine, after I've polished off too many adult beverages, and I decide to start delivering, in my outside voice (note: my inside voice is more than loud enough), a lengthy, Faulknerian stream-of-consciousness ramble on the importance of health care reform.

Nope. I'm still better.
