Dick Cavett wrote a wonderful piece on the mangling of the English Language by Sarah Palin, the Wild Wordsmith of Wasilla.
I can play a kind of Alaskan roulette. Any random channel clicked on by the remote brings up that eager face, with its continuing assaults on the English Lang.
There she is with Larry and Matt and just about everyone else but Dr. Phil (so far). If she is not yet on “Judge Judy,” I suspect it can’t be for lack of trying.
I am as baffled as Mr. Cavett about what did a percentage of the population see in the lady as a show of leadership. All I see is her obvious good looks, which are good for a modeling career, or maybe a job as TV anchor, but certainly not to deal with this country's problems.
As an aside, and apropos, she was in Miami last week for the Republican Governor's Association meeting. Here's what the Miami Herald's columnist Carl Hiaasen reported about the meeting (not really). Have you noticed that after all the pretty speeches and lamenting the election's results, they did not name her for any post in RGA's management? I wonder why.
