Palinophobes Hate First, Ask Questions Later
Sarah Palin is neither savior nor satanic.

By Jonah Goldberg

Slate magazine is just one of the countless media outlets convulsing with St. Vitus’ Dance over that demonic succubus Sarah Palin. In its reader forum, The Fray, one supposed Palinophobe took dead aim at the former Alaska governor’s writing chops, excerpting the following sentence from her book:

“The apartment was small, with slanting floors and irregular heat and a buzzer downstairs that didn’t work, so that visitors had to call ahead from a pay phone at the corner gas station, where a black Doberman the size of a wolf paced through the night in vigilant patrol, its jaws clamped around an empty beer bottle.”

Other readers pounced like wolf-sized Dobermans on an intruder. One guffawed, “That sentence by Sarah Palin could be entered into the annual Bulwer-Lytton bad writing contest. It could have a chance at winning a (sic) honorable mention, at any rate.”

But soon, the original contributor confessed: “I probably should have mentioned that the sentence quoted above was not written by Sarah Palin. It’s taken from the first paragraph of ‘Dreams From My Father,’ written by Barack Obama.”

The ruse should have been allowed to fester longer, but the point was made nonetheless: Some people hate Palin first and ask questions later.

My all-time favorite response to John McCain’s selection of Palin as his running mate was from Wendy Doniger, a feminist professor of religion at the University of Chicago. Professor Doniger wrote of the exceedingly feminine “hockey mom” with five children: “Her greatest hypocrisy is in her pretense that she is a woman.”

The best part about that sentence: Doniger uses the pronoun “her” — twice.

Just this week, a liberal blogger at The Atlantic who has dedicated an unhealthy amount of his life to proving a one-man birther conspiracy theory about Palin’s youngest child (it’s both too slanderous and too deranged to detail here) shut down his blog to cope with the epochal, existential crisis that Palin’s book presents to all humankind. The un-self-consciously parodic announcement seemed more appropriate for a BBC warning that the German blitz was about to begin, God Help Us All.

Indeed, some of us will always be sympathetic to Mrs. Palin if for nothing else than her enemies. The bile she extracts from her critics is almost like a dye marker, illuminating deep pockets of asininity that heretofore were either unnoticed or underappreciated.

In fairness, just as there are people who hate Palin for the effrontery she shows in daring to draw breath at all, there are those who love her with a devotion better suited for a religious icon.

I hear from both camps, often. And while I don’t think both sides are equally wrong (after all, the acolytes of the Doniger school openly reject reality more than any so-called creationist), I don’t think either position is laudable or sufficient.

Sarah Palin is neither savior (that job has been taken by the current president, or didn’t you know?) nor is she satanic. She is a politician, a species of human like the rest of us.

I’m fairly certain that if you read many of her public-policy positions but concealed her byline, many of her worst enemies would say “that sounds about right,” and some of her biggest fans would say “that sounds crazy.” But most people would say that her views are perfectly within the mainstream of American politics. She may be more religious than coastal elites in the lower 48, but that is something some bigots need to get over, anyway.

I’m happy about the books she’s selling thanks to the controversy over her, but that doesn’t mean I think these controversies are justified. Palin holds no public office and, as of yet, is not running for one. But the Associated Press assigned eleven reporters to “fact-check” her book, while doing nothing like that to fact-check then-candidate Obama’s or current Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid’s no doubt riveting book.

As it stands, my sense is that Palin is good for the Republican party but not necessarily great. She generates enthusiasm among, and donations from, the base. But she also turns off many of the people the GOP needs to persuade and attract. That could change with this book tour, and I hope it does. Whether she’s ready or qualified for the presidency is another matter. But the presidency is a long way off, and besides, that’s what primaries are for.

Does being a grown-up like you include making homosexual references aimed at others in an attempt to insult them? Because as far as I know, that's something kids in junior-high do. Mostly stupid ones, I might add.

I know, they are for the asshats that like autographs and to get books signed. Sometimes they will buy extra books just to get them signed.

Doesn't mean they aren't asshats. Palin is doing it because she is promoting a book, probably not because she enjoys signing books and autographs.

I know a great many people, relatives, dear friends and others that just turn into a complete fucking moron when a celebrity appears on the horizon..it's a sort of instinct that overcomes them and they turn into some sort of predatory animal seeking some kind of piece of that celebrities' fame and success.

It's scary...that's one of those moments when I realize we are still at heart, animals. Peoples instinctiive hatred of Bush superceding their love of their own home was another one of those traumatic experiences for me.


I do just the opposite, I pretend I don't even know who they are. They're just another person. No better than that homeless guy on the street.

I didn't even ask Drob for his autograph when I had the opportunity.

I mean hey dude, a couple of weeks ago I was guarding Angus Young while he signed autographs...

Angus
Fucking
Young

Stood right next to the guy and kept dumbasses off him, chicks were wanting him to sign their tits, guys were handing him money to sign, asking him for something wanting to touch him, wanting any piece of him they could get...it's just this primitive animalistic mania that takes over.

Anyway, when he was done he waited for a second and held out his hand and said thanks(this means I've actually heard him talk, which is cooler than actually getting an autograph if you ask me) and it was almost like he expected me to want something too...and I didn't.

I just said, no problem man, you're my favorite singer. Take it easy :smokin
