palin proves you can't fix stupid

beauty fades, dear sarah, dumb is forever.

ffs, would news organizations all decide to just leave her be, and not talk to her ever, ever again? the more i think on the fact she was almost the vp of this country, the more amazed i become. john mccain should have been removed from office as a senator, he's obviously senile and demented. how else explain choosing her as his running mate, and forever installing her as a punch line?

john mccain suffers from the disease that, with any luck, we will all suffer. he's old.

it's the one prejudice we hold that we also hope we'll be victim of. if only we got darker, poorer, and gayer with time.

he's hardly alone in the responsibly for sarah. you really need to go back to august 2008 and look at the political landscape he faced. it's not as if he could have nominated joe lieberman without an actual walkout at the republican convention.

he rolled the dice with a young, female, conservative pinup. that quelled the potential rebellion in his own party and gave him some hope that women (a vital cohort that his party had been steadily losing) would support his ticket in the general election. it's easy to look in hindsight and see what we all learned the last 5 years about palin.

i know the post was about another phenomenally stupid thing she said. but i hate to see a guy who i still think is the best candidate for president i didn't vote for get another "senile" shot.

he's a veteran and pow who dedicated his life to public service. she's a wanna be pageant queen who's living the dream on his dime. i don't excuse the choice he made, but i can understand it.

john mccain served, but he's no hero. his actions in the banking scandal back in the day got conveniently forgotten-but then, we do have bigger and better banking scandals to worry about.
if he wanted to go for a woman, he could have at least chosen one who was capable, and had more than just a pretty face. her lack of experience took away any realistic chance he had to call out obama for that same lack.
i don't care for mccain, i think he's gotten more respect for outlasting people than because he actually has done things to earn it. he's another that if you do more than scratch the surface, you won't like what you find. that rolling stone article a few years back was scathing, and factual.
but you're right, we all hope to age well. some day i plan to be an old bat who eats at the country kitchen buffet, and then hopefully makes it home in one piece.
