Well, I don't fear Palin, and I don't suppose there's any understanding her (sense; she makes none), ergo I suppose I don't want to destroy her. I just want her to go away. Apparently, so does Margaret Thatcher...lol

Ever read the horror stories of HP Lovecraft? I'm thoroughly convinced that, if anyone were to completely understand Sarah Palin, that person would go completely and irrevocably insane. Her memoirs will come to replace The Necronomican of the mad Arab, Abdul Alhazred. They will be bound in taffeta and wolf skin, with little happy faces and flowers on the front.

Stunta. They tend not to wear helmets. I suspect brain injury.

Its just too bad those that hate her feel some kind of compelling need to analyze everything she says and does like its the Zapruder film. Its like the story (that may be apocryphal) about Howard Stern when he was on terrestrial radio that people who hated him listened far more than those that liked him. Palin gets paid because she brings in an audience, and it doesn't matter if that audience loves her or hates her.

You are assuming the people who hate her are buying her books, or buying tickets to see her speak. I don't see Avatard doing that. All he might do is click on a CNN article about her. She doesn't get paid for that.

Part of selling that book and those tickets is her fans. Another part of it is exposure, and she gets more of that than practically anyone.

Do you think Obama sold more copies of "Dreams from My Father" before or after he became a national figure?

What is a shame is that the media and pop culture in America do pay this much attention to shit that doesnt matter, while the economy, SSI, unemployment, healthcare, ect all take a back seat to who did what to whom...And just when it dies down, one party fans the flames to try and discredit the other whithout coming up with one decent way to return to our proud beginnings as an actual republic.

And all the fanfare over who did what to whom is to keep the public from diving in too deep to all the stuff that truly matters. If we really knew the truth about the economy, SSI, u/e, healthcare, etc., we'd start a revolution and get rid of all the lying scum. But they want to keep their jobs, so there's all sorts of other crap to keep us entertained so we don't dive into learning the truth about the things that really matter.
