Shoot Me Again, I’m Quoting Andrew Sullivan Now

Read his opening ‘graph:

Some readers think my continuing attempt to expose all the lies and flim-flam and bizarre behavior of Sarah Palin is now moot. She’s history – they argue. Move on. I think she probably is history. Even Bill Kristol and his minions in the McCain-Palin campaign may not be able to resuscitate her political viability now. But even if she is history, she is history that matters.

That she is a disaster is certain. That she will fade back to well deserved obscurity is likely.

That this should have never happened in the first place is what needs to be examined.

The idea that Bill Kristol, a man who has nothing to recommend him except his parents, got her nominated as VP because he had a crush on her after meeting her at the governor’s mansion while on an Alaska cruise for conservatives is frightening.

That the media treated her as something other than a joke compounds the terror.

That the media is now actively participating in her rehabilitation leads one to despair.
