And, hey, what's up with this Sarah Palin?

I don't get it.  What is the deal with this woman?  More importantly, what is the deal with her supporters?  I really don't get it.

I am not anti-Republican.  I suppose I'm anti-fundamental Christian, but I've been ok with other politicians that are fundamental Christians (only in spite of that fact, but ok nonetheless).

Do I have a problem with women as politicians?  I don't think so, but I suppose it's possible.  Do I have a problem taking beautiful women seriously in politics?  That may be a little more likely (and, yes, I do think Sarah Palin is very attractive), but I still don't think that's it either.

I think it may be the fact that I see her as a complete Sue Average.  There's nothing spectacular about her.  I don't think she's an idiot, like many on the left think.  I also don't think she's all that smart either.

I think the problem is that she's no more than a female version of George W. Bush.  Enough with the 100 IQ politicians that get their intellectual inspiration from Jesus and the Republican base!

... and the Republican base/Tea Party folks ... enough already!  If you would've been pissed about George W. Bush's socialism and out-of-control spending, you might've had me.  Instead you watched for eight years as he was probably as fiscally bad as the worst liberal presidents.  You justified it because he had (R) next to his name and he talked to Jesus a lot.  If you want to put your money where your mouth is, throw both parties out!

Did I mention that I don't get the obsession with Sarah Palin?  You betcha!
