John Cole Tells it Like It Is
Sep. 12th, 2008 07:01 pmThe fabulous John Cole over at Balloon Juice sums up Sarah Palin in the only way that fits:
Sarah Palin is the distilled essence of wingnut. She has it all. She is dishonest. She is a religious nut. She is incurious. She is anti-science. She is inexperienced. She abuses her authority. She hides behind executive privilege. She is a big spender. She works from the gut and places a greater value on instinct than knowledge.
And most dangerous of all, she is supremely self-confident to the point of not recognizing how ill-equipped she is to lead the country.
The only thing I'd change about the above comment is the word "dishonest." It's just too elegant. I prefer "liar." It's a nasty little word that suits her perfectly.
Someone asked me if I'm going to watch her on 20/20 tonight. No I am not. Between her vicious performance at the Republican convention and her blathering Charlie Gibson interview last night, I've seen all I need to of this awful woman. She needs to be shipped back to Alaska without delay. This grinning fruitcake so little deserves to be in the White House that there should be a restraining order keeping her from even standing outside it.
