		<description>Sarah Palin reminds me of Nicole Kidman&#039;s character in &quot;To Die For&quot;. And that character thought women were jealous of her too.</description>

		<description>I like her looks, actually---even the half down hair.  (Not so much the color of the suits, as you point out.)</description>

		<description>I&#039;ve stated often enough elsewhere that I think she&#039;s simple- minded, but being criticized for looking attractive is just wrong.  There&#039;s absolutely no reason a woman has to look homely, in a severe business-like way, to be smart or capable.  If men can&#039;t take her seriously because they&#039;re too busy staring at her, that&#039;s their problem.  Unless she goes around in 6-inch skirts and lots of cleavage on the job, it&#039;s just sexism.  (And she&#039;s doing anything but, with that beehive hair -- looking even worse HALF up, for Gibson&#039;s interview -- and Sears-looking neutral colored suits, dull pumps.)</description>

		<description>TRANSLATION:

Congress: Sarah, the country is going to build you a ridiculously overpriced bridge and it&#039;s not going to cost you a dime! 

Sarah Palin: Fantatsic! I&#039;d love a ridiculously overpriced bridge that won&#039;t cost us a dime! In fact, I&#039;m going to go around wearing t-shirts celebrating this totally ludicrous earmark! Wooo, free bridge, bitches!

A LITTLE WHILE LATER:

Congress: Nevermind, Sarah, the country doesn&#039;t want to build you a ridiculously overpriced bridge. It&#039;s pretty stupid, when you think about it. 

Sarah Palin: Nevermind, Congress, we don&#039;t want the country to build us a ridiculously overpriced bridge. It&#039;s pretty stupid, when you think about it.

Congress: (scratches head, confused) Um. We just said that to you. 

Sarah Palin: Yep. Uh huh, no thanks on that bridge.

Congress: (even more confused) What do you mean &quot;No thanks&quot;? We&#039;re not offering the bridge, Sarah. You can&#039;t say &quot;no thanks&quot; when we AREN&#039;T offering you anything.  That&#039;s not how it works. &quot;No thanks&quot; doesn&#039;t apply anymore.

Sarah Palin: (smiling, clueless)  Uh huh. No thanks on the bridge, Congress.

(Long beat)

Congress: Are you on drugs, Ms. Palin?</description>

		<description>One factor to be considered is the American belief (shared by no other country as far as I can see) that anyone with a &quot;good Heart&quot; and &quot;Common Sense&quot; can succeed in governing. Its the theme behind &quot;Mr Smith goes to Washington&quot; and &quot;Dave&quot; and it animates all those silly questions about who you&#039;d like to have a beer with. As Tony McPeak, former Chief of Staff of the Air Force, wrote a few years ago for the last eight years we&#039;ve conducted an experiment to see whether any idiot can occupy the oval office. So how is that working out for you?

Funny really. Would you hire a plumber because he (or she) was a good guy? Or would you want someone who knew what they doing? How about a Doctor? Forget their education and residency! Are they a &quot;maverick&quot;?

All I can say is this may be jitters but if America buys this pig in a poke then they shall get what deserve and I really don&#039;t want to hear anymore about their troubles. That is for grown ups.</description>
