Some more bashing of Sarah Palin on Sunday night’s episode of CBS’s The Good Wife, but the scene also managed to deliver an illustrative dramatization of liberals in a bubble displaying arrogant condescension toward those who dare stray from liberal orthodoxy – and how they learn to despise the Fox News Channel via Jon Stewart.
A couple who are old college friends of liberal lawyer “Diane Lockhart” visit and meet her fiancé, Gary Cole as Sarah Palin supporter, gun owner and ballistics expert “Kurt McVeigh.” An appalled “Francesca” despairs: “But his views, Diane. All his views. He supports Sarah Palin!”
She soon lectures, before getting cut off: “Issues matter. I know we’re all supposed to disagree and smile and go home and pretend it’s all some big tennis match, but people end up poorer, guns end up killing people. Global warming keeps destroying our-”

“Francesca,” and husband “Lyle,” played by left-wing comedian Robert Klein, meet “Lockhart” and “McVeigh” in a restaurant where they learn he owns a gun. “Francesca” exclaims: “So you don’t think Sandy Hook changed anything?”
Later, at the apartment of “Lockhart,” played by Christine Baranski, “Francesca expresses her disgust with how her soon-to-be-husband likes Palin. “Lockhart,” a fan of Hillary Clinton’s, laughs as she acknowledges, “I fell in love with a Palin supporter.”
To which “Lyle,” just after grabbing hold of Sarah Palin’s book, Going Rogue, on a bookshelf, scolds: “It’s not funny, Diane. Did you see her? She’s back on Fox.”
“Lockhart” points out: “Oh, you don’t watch Fox.” “Lyle” counters, showing where liberals learn about FNC: “They show clips on Jon Stewart.”(continued)

hmm...Palin bashing. 5 years later. Could Hollyweird have an idea she might be in the race in 2016?
Well here’s a Mensa candidate telegraphing Y’all Come to burglars and home invaders.
How many low-info voters actually read articles? But they do watch tv, I woud imagine. What better way to stigmatize and smear her before the election than to regularly make references to her in popular tv shows?
The Good Wife?
I know it is a TV show but beyond that who cares what they say or do...
Maybe ... but it's great that after all this time, she's still living rent-free in their heads. :-)
Yeah, it’s been five years, and Sarah has been living rent free in the libtards’ heads. Eventually the heads will explode.

This is what TV has become? Pretty sick...
“they seemed to be mocking the liberals.”
I think perhaps you give them credit for intelligence they do not possess.
Believe it or not, the title character offered a pro bono defense to a surrogate mom who wants to carry a baby to term in spite of the biological parents’ instance on an abortion in the episode before this one. I have to wonder if a they’ve slipped a more conservative (by Hollywood standards at least) writer onto the staff.
