Comments on: Just how does a librarian give “full support” to a mayor? https://lastchancedemocracycafe.com/?p=1432 Home of the Liberal Burger Thu, 18 Sep 2008 08:39:31 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.5.1 By: Larkrise https://lastchancedemocracycafe.com/?p=1432#comment-56488 Larkrise Fri, 12 Sep 2008 08:17:10 +0000 https://lastchancedemocracycafe.com/?p=1432#comment-56488 Palin is petty, shallow, vicious, and self-serving. A perfect pick for the Right Wing. No wonder McPain was so impressed with her. It was, however, an astute choice. You see, it let all the closet-racists off the hook. Many of them are the Coach Handbag carrying, SUV driving, white, upper-middle class suburbanites. Traditionally, they have been Republicans. After all, if one wants to be socially prominent, wants to be seen as well-to-do and in the Junior League Set, then one must be Republican. Of course, and however, one should be politically correct, too. So, Obama was a problem for them. They dont want to appear small-minded, although they cringe every time African-Americans move into their neighborhoods. They carry within them the fear, that city newspapers perpetuate, by headlining all the Black on Black crime in the inner cities. Occasionally, it is Black on White crime, and this really terrifies them. They have formed dogged stereotypes. They do not wish to hear about the socioeconomic forces that aid and abet the formation of criminals. They do not care about inner city school failures. Like Bush, they think all poor people need to do for healthcare and drug addiction is go to the city hospital emergency room. They fear that Obama represents African-Americans taking over the country and becoming "uppity." Still, it wouldnt be nice to say these things too loudly. Now, the choice of Sarah Palin gives them the perfect out. They would not have voted for Obama anyway. Many would have stayed at home on election day. Nevertheless, they wouldnt tell a pollster that. No, they would say they were undecided. So much nicer to say that. Then, here comes Sarah, and these women come out of the woodwork. They have their excuse. They have their OUT. McPain gave it to them on a silver platter. The wiley old Fox and his foxy gun moll. If we have 4 more years of Bush/Conservative economic policies, many of these idiots wont have a pot left to , well, you know. But, connecting dots, thoughtful analysis, and facing reality are not their forte. They cant even figure out that McPain and Paleface will reinstitute the draft, if at all possible, (and with Pelosi and Reid, it is possible) and their soccer darlings will have to fight the oil wars. "How many times do you have to get hit over the head, until you figure out who the guy is that's hitting you?" HST This is my greatest fear: All the fools out there will continue to refuse to look and see who is hitting them over the head. Still, I will hope for the best, or try to, anyway. Welcome back, Steve. It is great to be able to read your commentary again. It gives me hope that not all intelligent life has left the planet. Palin is petty, shallow, vicious, and self-serving.
