Oh, no, I totally agree—I didn’t go to school for the classes, I went so I could pick the brains of the professors and write for the local daily. Smaller pond, easier to fish, et cetera. College doesn’t mean jack if you don’t have internships and a couple of side jobs to go with it.

As for Palin?

She hasn’t declared, and says constantly she’s a private citizen “on vacation,” just driving a bus with her name on the side of it (and who here hasn’t done THAT? I know I’ve got the money lying around) around to key campaign stops that GOP candidates who are *actually* running for president happen to be at.

Meaning she ought to get the same amount of media coverage as Don and Bev Knutson in their Airstream caravan. But I’m not an assignment editor, so I don’t get to make those calls. Palin == eyeballs == ad revenue. Why ad revenue drives news reporting, I’ll never know, but here we are. Lord knows I wouldn’t be able to sleep at night if I thought for a second I was responsible for ruining Piper’s vacation.

My view on Sarah Palin: If I wanted to get jerked around, I could do it myself with a lot less fuss.

I ignored your post - turkey. No one cares what you liberals think and your obsession with SARAH - as you show up on Sarah threads with your liberal rant.
