Okay, so we hate her or love her, but her ability to seriously fuck with the country and the world has been voted down, so can't we just let Sarah go? Last night, Keith Olbermann and Rachel Maddow devoted too much time and too much parsing to further kick everyone's favourite "you bitch'a."
Back in Alaska, she gave a press conference to address the crap people have been saying. Who cares about the goddam clothes? Do we really need to have a helicopter feed, a la OJ, showing the RNC arriving at the Governor's mansion to pick up the wardrobe from Macy's? And do they really want Todd's silk boxers back? Then again, I'm sure they could make a bundle selling them on bay. As long as they were worn during one of his 3-day Zamboni races. Todd Heisler/The New York Times
I don't understand the point in acting psycho to get your point across about psychos. He has a point of course but Olbermann always comes off sounding like Al Pacino in 'Scent of A Woman' to me---overly overacting, as though he's mid-audition for a political pundit role in the new Law & Order. Generic parody. Again, it's this phony outrage; Olbermann was outraged at Bush, rightfully, but then was outraged at HRC too, because she mentioned Robert Kennedy's assassination. Does he understand politics at all? Being outraged at Bush is one thing, but did Hillary deserve the same histrionics? Just gnash your teeth and grind everything together into a uniform meaninglessness. There should be degrees of outrage. Hearing those 'psychos' scream racist crapola is not shocking. It's grist for the mill. Open your eyes.
Tim Russert dead today at 58. Chris Matthews and Keith Olbermann better watch their backs.
