Jeff Jacoby Is A Dumbass Mother Fucker.
This Boston Globe moron (apologies if any of my writing friends know him).
In this Op-Ed piece today, he had nothing but faux praise for Sarah Palin's performance in the debate last night.
And I am sorry, but when she said that having an exit strategy was "waving a white flag and surrendering" when asked about Iraq... The woman is a d-bag! If we wait around for the Iraqi leadership to decide they are ready to take on their own responsibilities, we'll never be out of there. (And we never should have been there in the first fucking place.)
I will grant you one things: she does have a great sense of humor.
Sure, she's great for Alaska. But she is not yet ready for prime time national leadership. She needs to become more familiar with the rest of the issues of the rest of America, and how to deal with the rest of the world.
And I find it insulting and sexist that the expectations for her performance were so low that she "did incredible" based on last night's performance. She did not do incredible. And Biden was simply being nice, and not attacking her... Which is something you should well know that he is capable of. He played nice.
So I don't quite understand, Jeff, why you are applauding her efforts. I do believe she annoyed the fuck out of a great majority of voting women out there last night. And it's insulting to see the media saying, "Oh! You did a good job honey! You're just a girl! You met our low expectations."
Sarah Palin is not ready. If she was, she would have ripped Biden a new hole. And Biden shouldn't have played nice, but he had no choice. She is inexperienced. And she needs to stop calling herself a "hockey mom."

"What she conveyed beautifully wasn't policy wonkery: It was reasonableness, groundedness, common sense, and intelligence leavened with good humor and real-life connections."Dear Jeff, are you stupid? Were you not paying attention to the words that were coming out of her mouth? She did awful. She was too scripted. She rarely answered a question without first running off in a tangent, if she offered it at all. She said Maverick too many fucking times. At one point, I wasn't sure if she understood that Israel and Palestine were two different places.

I don't believe a VP's job is to "sit there and look pretty."
Maybe in another 4 years she would be ready. But she is certainly not yet. And her performance last night was weak.
