Andrew Sullivan: "Beware the fantasy of Sarah Palin...."
http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/comment/columnists/andrew_sullivan/article6926728.ece

Why did Sullivan publish this in London? Won't US papers touch the babygate?

I don't get it...

1. Birthers and teabaggers don't question the 'Wild Ride'. It is more 'cockamamie B.S.
from Palin, the warrior woman.

Who would subject their baby to no amniotic fluid? And this is the first I've heard of the ride from the airport to Wasilla. How far is this ride?

And her disciples worry about a birth certificate from a rational man who is our President.

2. Several reasons, chief among them is that no one reads the dailies from the U
There is no viable press of a daily nature any longer. Judith Miller killed it. There are still monthlies, quarterlies, ect. but does not one go on line and read from London to learn the news and some decent essays every single day?

Additionally, MovieFone has made the paper obsolete, and no one is looking for an apartment now. Add in the fact that I had rather had my name in a London paper byline than the NYT and one has the answer. Sad, but true.
The used bicycles are on Craig's List now.

4. so the delay was even longer-- she wakes at 4--speech is around noon, another twelve hours
on plane,and 90 minutes to wasilla. this woman is demonstrably too stupid to be allowed anywhere near any position of responsibility EVER.

5. She is a sociopath/narcisist, which makes her the heir to Smirk
She is completely amoral.
