    At the risk of invoking Godwin's Law....

    I read WWII books all the time, and the more I read from the German perspective, the more it freaks me out. Hitler believed Prussians were elitist, with their fancy military schools, and their fancy accents. Bavarians were the real Germans, who lived close to the land, didn't have fancy educations, and talked like real people talk. I'm pretty sure Palin isn't the next Hitler, but she has some of his talking points down pat.

    My next effort, and first attempt at writing for children, will be entitled:

    "WTF Mom! The Asshole Bigots Next Door Keep Trying To Give Me Literature And Make Me Eat Venison! Can We Move?!"

    Its also strange though to me that liberals, Democrats and the like are not understanding that there is a fear of change brewing in this country, which to be honest, I can understand. For a 70 year old person, who lives in a small suburb somewhere, I can imagine that watching this country evolve into what it is, with civil rights, technology, etc could be "scary". And I would hope that we could all in some way understand that and then see how to help people understand the necessity of change. I think that somehow we have just expected people to get it and what has occurred instead is the pandering to people who are slightly confused by said change and they have now become bait for conservatives and the scheisters like Beck and Limbaugh.

    I just sustained a minor concussion from head-desking.

    what american dream? they are crushing several of MY american dreams - the separation of church and state, my reproductive rights, racial and gender equality, etc.

    According to him, the presence of so many Asians and Pacific Islanders made her uncomfortable: 'They were a minority type thing and it wasn't glamorous, so she came home."'

    I can't believe I'm defending her in any way (way to go, Dad...what an asshole) but why is it unacceptable for white people to feel alienated among people of another race, culture, educational, or class group, but it's okay for non-whites who write about how alienated they feel in a predominately white school, town, etc?

    That said, I hate her and she makes me sick, and what she represents makes me sick.

    Marxus Obundus? Oh, you can do better than that, Katharine DeBrecht! You need to work Hitler in there somewhere if you want to have a shot at the Conservative Self Parody Belt. There are a LOT of really good contenders this year, so step up your game!

    Palin's Hawaii was fueled by dreams of Annette Funicello on the beach or Elvis with his down home country twang. Maybe she envisioned herself as Deborah Kerr in From Here to Eternity where she and Todd would roll on the beach in their high waisted bathing suits and his "white man" seed would dominate her fertile womb while his inferior Inuit seed would wash out to sea, perhaps to those Orientals out there who were threatening to ruin her utopian ideals. She had no idea what Hawaii was like, other than when she closed her eyes in the shower and pictured herself singing "Wash That Man Outa My Hair" just like the movies she'd watch on the family teevee.

    As an admirer of Theodore Roosevelt and Abraham Lincoln, it chills me to my core to see idiots like Palin and Beck take the Republican political view, that almost 100 years ago actually stood for citizenship and an amazing pride in America to this xenophobic and ignorant bullshit.

    I dream of a Bill & Ted type scenario where Roosevelt returns and slaps Palin across the face with one of his many stuffed "hunts". Oh and it would be awesome if RFK could return as well and smack around Libeman. Ahh dreams.

    This could easily be retitled "...Just Another Kind of Racism." I see Palin and her ilk for the bigots and liars they are. Furthermore, I fail as a human being because I instantly look down on anyone that doesn't realize it.

    I tend to think she is reinventing the Know Nothing Party, myself.

    Governor Palin, what are your activities?

    "I know nothing."
