Defending a dysfunctional political lightweight like Sarah Palin is just as absurd as attacking her. Again: this Caribou Barbie with the deer in the headlights vacuous look in her eyes is not worth all this trouble. It doesn't matter what sidde of the aisle you stand on; either wat, her most endearing quality is her uncanny ability to find a way to be the butt of so many hilarious jokes.

Sarah Palin is not leadership material. Period. Nothing personal, no labeling, no acidic or hateful comment. As with many people who get a taste of the limelight, she now craves it like a drug. If she were smart, she'd go home and lay low and watch to see how things pan out for President Simba.

Unfortunately for her and the people closest to her, "smart" and Sarah Palin don't find their way into the same sentences very often.
