Sarah Palin, A Governor Devoid of Irony

William "They Will Greet Us as Liberators" Kristol, a writer who possesses no knowledge of reality-- just "forms", insults the American people once again in his Times column. Writing with the assumption that the American people are stupid and what should move the people is Culture rather than a real discussion of any issues, Kristol argues that McCain/ Palin should bring up the good Rev. Wright, especially during tomorrow night's debate.

When Kristol asks Palin, Palin states:

“To tell you the truth, Bill, I don’t know why that association isn’t discussed more, because those were appalling things that that pastor had said about our great country, and to have sat in the pews for 20 years and listened to that — with, I don’t know, a sense of condoning it, I guess, because he didn’t get up and leave — to me, that does say something about character. But, you know, I guess that would be a John McCain call on whether he wants to bring that up.”

This quote reveals nothing but contempt for the American people. Why would it be okay for McCain/ Palin to attack Obama because of his religious associations? Are McCain and Palin that stupid to take this route, especially with the religious associations of McCain (Hagee) and Palin (Jews for Jesus, speaking in tongues, Alaska as a place of salvation for the end times).

I would prefer Palin to actually read and then explain the comments by Rev. Wright and then explain how her religious "beliefs" and "practices" provide a better moral foundation for an individual.

For Kristol, this just reveals more pure, conservative, anti-intellectualism. For Palin, this just reveals pure stupidity.

Should we expect anything less? When you cannot offer the American people any substance, you must look to tar and feather... I hope no Wiccans will be burned at the stake.
