What's sad is Palin keeps saying "You don't hear much about that" she should say

[merbex]

'You, gathered here, the base of the GOP don't hear much about this thing called an energy crisis because we, the so-called leaders of the GOP know you are faith based and like 3 word talking points like Drill baby Drill and I have to walk you through what the rest of the world already knows and hears about and talks about and is doing something about....'

That's what she, in effect, is saying

Honestly, she sounds like my kids' kindergarten teacher talking to a bunch of 5 year olds......

That's her audience.

1. You shouldn't knock 5 year olds like that! ;-> n.t

2. There's one anser to the "Drill Baby Drill" nonsense, and it's:

3. Don't confuse me with the facts......

My mind is allready made up.

"Republican" is a diagnosis, not a political persuasion. Characterized by a chronic inability to perceive and process factual material. Providing them with additional facts has no observable therapeutic effect.

4. Noticed the kindergarten teacher aspect as well.

and after hearing all the garbage about how democrats in general and Obama-Biden in particular aren't interested in doing crap on energy, I realized that it is really true that Sarah Palin doesn't read anything, doesn't know anything, and doesn't listen to a word being said. It was a lame argument that fizzeled.

5. The kindergarten thing fits with something Al Franken once said.

"Conservatives love America the way a four-year-old loves her mommy. Liberals love America like grown-ups. To a four-year-old, everything mommy does is wonderful and anyone who criticizes mommy is bad. Grown-up love means actually understanding what you love, taking the good with the bad, and helping your loved one grow. Love takes attention and work and is the best thing in the world."
