I can't stop reading about Teabagger craziness, though it's making my head explode. And serious-fucking-ly, Sarah Palin?

I'm tempted to boycott the Discovery Channel, as they have signed her up for a multi-episode reality show called Sarah Palin's Alaska.

Noooooooooo!! Not with a new season of Deadliest Catch coming on soon! Argh. I can only hope that Palin's media saturation means that she wants money more than she wants to ever run for office again. Right?

Wrong.

She wants power, and she's savvy enough to realize that how to use the media to give her a voice.

What scares me so much about her, is that I think she'd prefer to live in a country that looks more like A Handmaid's Tale than I could ever be comfortable with. Unfortunately, with the recent Texas Textbook decision, we're moving in that direction, despite ourselves.

I don't know why exactly, but she reminds me of Octomom and Kate Gosling.

Oh god, I re-read that book last year and it scared the pants off me even more than it had before.

I can see the Octomom/Kate resemblance- they are media whores who do not seem like they're very good people. And that's Palin!
