Many of our Tea Party faves are blithely heading into media buzzsaws and and are gonna get chopped.
Even if they emerge relatively intact, the suspicion will remain “how could they have not known they would be savaged?”
Not one in a five hundred people of either sex could put up with the assault that has been launched against Sarah Palin. I hope Michele can handle what she is going to unleash upon herself.
I would prefer she proceeded a litle more gingerly and I will not diminish my support of her, but the impression is created that she does not know what she is doing walking into this type of hornet’s nest and so she *also* may not know what she’s doing over here, and over here.
It’s as if a lot of Tea Partiers actually believe being media savvy is a negative trait.
You are unwittingly aping a leftist argument. To wit: Because conservatives are savaged by leftists this proves that conservatives are "stupid" because if they were "smart" they would "know" not to say things that "cause" leftists to savage them.
Here's how I see it: Conservatives say conservative things because that is the only way to promote conservatism. Leftists respond with outrage whenever conservatives say conservative things because leftists are crazy and evil. People who blame conservatives for leftist outrage are themselves either crazy and evil leftists, or else they are stupid and are allowing themselves to be suckered by the leftists.
Frankly, looks reasonable to me....
