Isn’t Peggy referred to as “Athena” at this blog? So Noonan’s the gatekeeper, is she? Palin is attractive, smart, and so far shows she has a shallow understanding of policy. But policy is fairly easy to learn and anyone can eventually learn to write; Palin has skill and talent Noonan has never been able to acquire. Noonan is masking her envy with the pretense of disdain.

I heard W is getting bad reviews, one and a half stars, that type of thing.

#7 – And speaking of which, “W” came in fourth behind, of all films, “The Secret Life of Bees” and “Beverly Hills Chihuahua.”

How fitting.

Where was Oliver Stone and Michael Moore during Clinton’s last year in office, and where are those movies?

I rest my case.

I don’t think it has anything to do with left v. right. She (and her compatriots) is a Tory. Joe the Plumber is okay, because he’s not running for national office, and other citizens running for local or state, or even Congressional, seats is okay. But a citizen, and not a member of our professional ruling elite, on the Presidential ticket is too much for her to bear.

When the election is over, no matter which way it goes, look for citizens to turn their anger against the Tories. It was likely with PDS. Joe the Plumber made it inevitable.

â€œWhy is Bill Ayers a respectable member of the upper middle class and Sarah Palin contemptible?â€

Ayers: Anti-American Elitist.

Palin: Working-class patriot.

That explains it.

I definitely feel that a lot of these so-called “conservative” commentary writers have to write some of their more questionable pieces in order to mollify the social circles in which they swim. I’m sure they get asked questions at champagne and caviar parties about “just how can you justify Palin.” And in those situations, it’s not easy to stand your ground. It’s not easy in life in general. It’s much easier just to agree with people. Hence we see all these concessions by Brooks, Noonan, Parker. Does anybody else wonder just who the heck decided Andrew Sullivan ever knew what he was talking about? I find him the most hypocritical and arrogant and just willfully ignorant.

Sam Schulman has written an absolutely excellent analysis on class and style. His question is: "Why is Bill Ayers a respectable member of the upper middle class and Sarah Palin contemptible?" It is at The Weekly Standard. Please, read it!
