The art of public speaking...
...as exemplified by Sarah Palin on Fox News, when asked what she thinks about Obama's slump in the poll numbers:
"Of course they're sinking. It was just a matter of time before more of that reflection of the people's uncomfortableness that they feel towards this administration is manifesting in these poll numbers," she offered.
It is shocking that McCain might have won the election with this woman as his VP. He doesn't seem to care that they didn't vet her. However gormless, she remains dangerous as the poster girl for the teabaggers,* who are Christianist, resentful, wilfully ignorant, and righteously armed.
*Yes, I know what it says in Urban Dictionary, but that's what Tea Partiers have called themselves.

Ms. Palin is in sore need of a translator. (Or maybe an exorcist, who knows.)
Or a metal health counsellor. Maybe she should contact Iris Robinson...

I still can't free myself from Lily Savage's use of the term, Anne! But yes, we're right to be worried...
