I’m posting this because I think that it is quite funny.
Bronze to Kathleen Parker, who wrote this rather hilarious article about John McCain’s picking of Sarah Palin.
Quote:
My husband called it first. Then, a brilliant, 75-year-old scholar and raconteur confessed to me over wine: ‘I’m sexually attracted to her. I don’t care that she knows nothing.’
Finally, writer Robert Draper closed the file on the Sarah Palin mystery with a devastating article in this Sunday’s New York Times Magazine: ‘The Making (and Remaking) of McCain.’
McCain didn’t know her. He didn’t vet her. His campaign team had barely an impression. In a bar one night, Draper asked one of McCain’s senior advisers: ‘Leaving aside her actual experience, do you know how informed Governor Palin is about the issues of the day?’
The adviser thought a moment and replied: ‘No, I don’t know.’
Blame the sycamore tree.
Which garnered a rather startled reaction out of Kathryn Jean Lopez over at the National Review:
Monica?! [Kathryn Jean Lopez]
Because I know some of you are understandably and sensibly wondering WHY?: We’re running our roster of syndicated columns through the election. Period. So that’s why we published one today that is embarrassing and outrageous.
Kirk Petersen called it a Cat Fight in the Corner. Andrew Sullivan got a rather hearty snort out of it as well.
The Silver goes to Rupert Murdoch for deciding that he is not too keen on his autobiography that is coming out.
The Gold goes to Rush Limbaugh for bringing up a subject that has been debunked by Factcheck.org and WorldNetDaily. (I know, I just broke a promise, but it was for a good reason.) My favorite line in this was, “Michael freaking Savage?!?!?!” 
This is one of the reasons why I love being a Libertarian. I can sit back and laugh at the “Coming apart” of the Republican Party too.
