(Ahdon'know, Alaska) - Remember, in middle school, when someone a "clic" didn't like would
do something very clever? Remember the clic would go around slamming and slandering that person
in every way they could imagine? It would be instant and awful, remember?
Things on the left haven't changed a whole lot from middle school. Within 20 minutes of Sarah Palin's
announcement, that she was going to step down in order to save her state millions more dollars in legal fees and
avoid being a wastrel short-timer, liberal bloggers and RINO pundits were posting slurs and falsehoods about
from the governorship of Alaska. Some of the most vicious posts came from the premenstrual Huffington
Post. Then came Time, the magazine, which proves every week that they are in the tank
for our "Fearless Leader." (see: Rocky and Bullwinkle. Jay Ward, Alex Anderson, Bill Scott;
Jay Ward Productions. NYC. 98 TV episodes. 1959-1972.) Finally, Daily Cos and Move-On
Dot Org chimed in with epithets and slurs which reached a peak of fretfulness, the decibels of
which could break glass.
This action, alone, shows the fear that these extremists are suffering under. Her actions are not
their actions, and they are confused and dazed. They shouldn't be. This is exactly the kind of action
that Bill Clinton took on many occasions. It is the riskiest and most brilliant of Machiavellian political
moves. Yet Huffington and Cos and Move-on misinterpreted it. They didn't understand
it when Clinton did it, either. Machiavelli's principle was simple: Don't ever let the opposition know
what you're thinking. Add that to Frederick the Great's war admonition: "L'audace! L'audace! Toujours
l'audace!" and you have what Patton called the perfect strategy.
Battle strategies? Renaissance politics? From a mindless WOMAN? From a "backwoods barbie?"
From a tasteless, hypocritical feak, who looks like - according to one sexist RINO politico - a porn star?
Well.. actually.. yes.
Sarah Palin is, already, everything most male politicians hope they may some day become. And she
does it while looking better at her age than most of these immasculated fops' trophy wives.
How can this be? One can get a great college education at almost any institution, if one does the
reading and listens in class. For example, I learned about Rostovsev's views of Roman history which
still hold value. I still read Cicero, sometimes in Latin. Yes, I studied at Carnegie-Mellon, too, but
I didn't learn any more there than I did at Carolina Merid.
She's not perfect. I'd love to donate 30 hours to get rid of that irritating nasality. I've done
it for others. The important thing is that it's cosmetic and of no real importance. And Charles Krauthammer
is correct when he says that every DC Pundit thinks she's a dead barbie walking. But as I've already
pointed out, I believe them to be terribly wrong.
Remember this the next time you hear some dumb pundit bloviating about her "qualifications":
Sarah Palin could just be the soft spring day that follows our long national night of the living dead.
