Sarah Palin–Pit Bull With Lipstick
You know, I have to admit…everyone who’s getting bent out of shape about Sarah Palin–John McCain’s running mate–and her pit bull-esque lunges at the Democratic Party really needs to take a step back and think it through.
Frankly, after seeing her run amok at the Republican National Convention, I’m kinda pleased with how her attack run on Obama turned out. It was great, watching her take sound bites that the Obama camp thought were buried forever–like Michelle Obama’s “This is the first time in my adult life I’ve been proud of America” line and Barack’s own line about country people, bitterness, guns and religion–and throw them back out as though they’d just spat out those chunks of idiocy only yesterday. It’s always gratifying to see that someone–anyone–hasn’t forgotten gaffes just because time passed.
Barack Obama thinks country folk are all backwoods rednecks who pray to the Flying Spaghetti Monster and tote rifles everywhere they go, and Michelle Obama would really rather not be American if her husband isn’t put into the White House. At least, that’s what you can gather from their own words.
Of course, meanwhile, John McCain’s a doddering old relic who can’t even remember, down to the last digit, exactly how many HOUSES HE OWNS. It’s time for the Obama camp–and its various supporters–to get down to brass tacks and remember, if they said it, you can use it.

The e-mail chain letter perspective is important, yes, but for balanced coverage I think we need the other important news source represented: The Daily Show.
Oh, don’t worry, Matt–I’ll have plenty of smackdown for each side of the aisle before we’re all done.
That’s also, parenthetically, what I love about The Daily Show. It doesn’t forget either.
