86. Startling Narcissism
Edited on Sun Oct-05-08 11:28 PM by krkaufman
Okay, now I'm wondering in which of two ways does Palin appear worse...
  1. Twisting Albright's statement regarding oppressed and exploited women into a self-serving quip in support of her own political career; or

  2. Interpreting her "providential" moment, using her words, that the message being communicated was that more women should support HER, as opposed to, perhaps, a rebuke, that maybe that she should do a better job of helping out women, from her position of power, by, say, not charging for rape kits.

Startling narcissism.


p.s. And then there's the hilarious side... the small town hockey mom who's just like the average person, paying $5 for a latte. And she doesn't read newspapers... but reads Starbucks cups? Are we going to have a foreign policy based on fortune cookies and matchbooks when she takes over for McCain?
