1. Not because Im a fan or even agree with her ideology.. (Gee, really? You're not a fan? We'd have never guess by the fair, even-toned missive you wrote)
2. Somehow, Palin has achieved celebrity status since the 2008 election. (Somehow? Give me your mailing address Mizz Reese and I'll send you a clue)
3. How many failed vice presidential candidates and former Alaska governors end up with book deals and reality TV shows? With an estimated net worth of $12 million? (Oh dear, not that nasty success thing! Gotta keep that class envy thing goin')
4. she was dressed more for the part of Hollywood celebrity than serious politician. (Tell us, Mizzz Reese, how does a "serious" politician dress? )
5. I know someones going to remind me that just last week, I said it was sexist to focus on the wardrobes of women in politics.
But it was hard for me to take Palin seriously dressed as she was. (Maybe if you removed the corn cobb from your backside you wouldn't have so much trouble.)
6. and her t-shirt...emphasized her figure. (Jealous because you don't have a figure to emphasize?)
7. Im sorry, but Id like my minister, my doctor and yes, my politicians, to look and dress for their parts. (Yes, we know you're sorry).
8. Once Palin spoke, I couldnt help but think she sometimes sounds like a caricature of herself. Perhaps its her unique manner of speaking or her overuse of certain phrases. (and once I started reading your column, I couldn't help but think you were a caricature of every hack-journalist who's been on the bash Palin bandwagon since she first set foot on the national stage).
9. none other than Dick Cheney recently blasted her for not being an appropriate choice for McCains running mate in 2008. (He didn't "blast her" that's just wrong. He was critical of McCain's process and has clarified his remarks since - maybe due to a tongue lashing by his daughter).
I could go on, but Mizz Reese isn't with any further time.
