palin-bachmann

In a recent interview to promote her new book, Sarah Palin's daughter Bristol had a few sassy words to say about presidential candidate Michele Bachmann's fashion style.

"I think she dresses a lot like my mom," Bristol tells me. "But a lot, a lot of women have done that the last few years. I do think it's odd, you know, seeing people with red blazers with their hair up with glasses."

Bristol added a giggle before continuing her thought about Bachmann, a Congresswoman from Minnessota. "I don't know if she's wearing glasses but you want to be hummmm, do you think that people don't notice you're dressing like my mom?"

Whether Michele is indeed imitating Sarah's style --and moreover, whether that's in any way noteworthy-- is a tough call, but that Bristol Palin aspires to Meghan McCain's vapid, catty style of punditry is readily apparent.

Kenneth:

Right now, I'm very, very grumpy because, despite my best effort to ignore the little strumpet, anecdotal information about her night of passion with Levi Johnston has somehow leaked into my consciousness. 

My consciousness is polluted enough without knowing that she forgot to fasten her chubby knees because Levi had plied her with Boone's Farm.  · Jun 29 at 9:22am

I have a question:

How does this missive square with your attitude that it's wrong to call homosexual activity sinful? · Jun 29 at 3:04pm

I don't care about sinful.  I care about distasteful.  Keep it to yourself, chubette. · Jun 29 at 5:04pm

Oh, I'd say calling Bristol Palin a strumpet and commenting on her chubby knees being "unfastened" is not only distasteful but cruel.  But then, what would I expect from a person who throws out a plea for compassion upon the death of his beloved pet and then treats those who responded compassionately with abuse?

I guess it's a Libertarian thing.

Sometimes the spontaneity of a message board like Ricochet may result in an attempt at humor from an egotistical and pompous boor. It’s a small cost to pay for the privilege of free speech.

I'm sure that anyone familiar with my comments would agree that I can be as pompous and boorish as anyone here.

I hope that I am not gratuitously cruel, at least not too often and not without accepting reproof when I am.

Stuart, you're not pompous, boorish or cruel.  I enjoy your posts.  I too thought that some of the comments on this topic were unneccessarily cruel.  It seems like any discussion of Sarah Pallin or her family can bring out the worst in some people.
