I don't think Palin is completely unqualified to be President because she makes mistakes. The last perfect person got nailed to a cross two millenia ago, they tell me. I think she's completely unqualified to be President because she's the kind of person who takes a day of reflection and gratitude and instead turns it into a national hissy fit like the spoiled brat she is. This is the kind of behavior you expect from Veruca Salt, not the next President. It is always, always, always about Sarah Palin. The country does not revolve around her stupid, petty, paranoid insecurities, but you'd be hard pressed to say so when millions believe the sun emerges from her ass every morning.
Sully, this afternoon:
This may be a smart-ass retort; it may be useful inoculation against a potentially damaging gaffe; it may even be a well-researched blog-post, but what it isn't is anything approaching the kind of character we expect in a president. A simple respect for the office she seeks would not reflect itself in these increasingly callow, sarcastic, cheap jibes at a sitting president. But sadly, like so many now purporting to represent conservatism, there is, behind the faux awe before the constitution, a contempt for the restraint and dignity a polity's institutions require from its leaders.
Glad I wasn't the only one who noticed. Sarah Palin has no conceivable chance in 2012, nor should she. She is simply too mean.
it must be said that sullivan really is kind of batty on the subject of palin though.
ReplyDeleteOn Trig Palin, yes. There are times when Sully makes sense about Sarah Palin.
