So I spent the first hour of my technical-work-time reading Sarah Palin's speech and news articles about her and the RNC, & essentially making myself angrier and angrier. It's not the best way to start out the morning. But then my dad came in with this video: Jon Stewart on Palin's media surrogates--and it made me feel so much better.
I have the feeling that this election season for me is going to be a cycle of reading news stories & getting really fucking pissed, & then watching Jon Stewart & Keith Olbermann to soothe my ruffled soul. Not a bad version of chamomile tea, I think.

So it really doesn't make any difference to me whether she's Miss America or the former secretary of state; I won't vote for her.
