Palin Derangement Syndrome

It appears that the Bush Derangement Syndrome (BDS) has been replaced by the Palin Derangement Syndrome (PDS). What is it about this woman that invokes such an irrational response from the left? Is it because she is a conservative woman who speaks her mind?

They hounded her mercilessly while she was Senator McCain's running mate. They continued their attacks after the election filing scores of unfounded ethics complaints, which wrecked havoc with her finances and in no small part led to her resigning as governor of Alaska. She was smart enough to realize that she could get nothing done as long as she held elected office and so became a private citizen once again. There are high profile, but low ethics people who to this day pursue some sort of insane quest regarding the birth of her son.

I admire Pam Geller, author of the Atlas Shrugs blog and the target of fear and loathing from a certain pony-tailed blogger who resides under the baggage claim area of the Denver airport, for going on the Joy(less) Behar show, and as this video shows, and Pamela points out, they really don't have anything substantive to say in their criticism of Sarah. They get off plenty of one-liners and snark on her personally, but can't verbalize what it is that they fear from this modern day Joan of Arc.



Just for the record, when I first saw the picture of the notes on her hand regarding the teleprompter, I thought it was either part of joke about Obama or a punchline she wanted to deliver about his skills with a teleprompter. Sometime during the campaign, I turned off the sound on my TV when Barry O was giving a speech and it was then I noticed he had this really annoying habit of turning his head from side to side while giving his speech. If you want to see how annoying it is find a five-minute clip of Obama giving a speech and mute the sound.

Kudos to Pam for going into the lion's den, and liberals, if the best you can do is merely crack jokes and issue put downs in some sort of macabre stand up open mic night at a comedy club exercise, then continue to have the rest of America continue to hold you in contempt and getting your butts handed to you in the ratings.

What they, the liberals, fail to realize is whether you like Sarah or not, the constant bashing of her just doesn't sit well with most people. You can only make something the butt of jokes for so long until it ceases to be funny.
