    Just out of curiosity, how many Dems won and how many Repubs during the mid-term elections? And how many Repubs are Tea-Partiers?

    I'm not the statistician. If you'd like to tell us then great, but that really had nothing to do with my point. Everyone pays attention to the Palins... no one is listening to Obama.

    And these are the grownups in charge?

    Hello again, Steve:

    Can someone be cunning and dumb too? I think so. Sarah Palin has extraordinary political instincts. Yet, she's as dumb as a rock.

    Good point ex, I think that applies equally to Obama and Biden.

    Hello again, Steve:

    Actually, no. Obama is smart as a whip, which has done him absolutely NO GOOD so far. I WISH the Obaminator would develop a little cunning... Right now, he looks like a meek little lamb.

    Biden agrees, Obama is just too darn smart, “I think what it is, is he’s so brilliant. He is an intellectual,” Biden said.

    Geez, first a guy shoots his TV and points the gun at his wife, then TV insiders think a Bristol win would ruin the show, now terrorism. This Palin derangement is out of control.

    Hello again, Steve:

    She IS a divisive figure, isn't she? The derangement goes both ways, though... She doesn't like her critics any more than they like her.

    Obama is trying to keep everyone happy, and that tactic is failing miserably. Reminds me of my father. He tried to keep us kids happy and uncomplaining by being constantly agreeable to anything and everything, so we complained even more. My mom heard our complaints, opened the utensil drawer, and got out the big, black wooden spoon.

    All of the events in my last post were about Bristol. People are terrorizing one of her children? Even you should admit that's gone too far.

    A guy shoots his TV & threatens his wife. People complain that DWTS is rigged (or whatever the complaints are -- I don't watch the show) because Bristol shouldn't be there, and now someone sends baby powder through the mail. It appears to me that some people simply don't like Bristol. So what. She appears to be handling it very well, just as an adult should. She isn't a child. She has placed herself in the public eye as her baby's daddy has. She is going to receive criticism, hate, crazed love letters, hate mail, marriage proposals, threats, possibly a stalker or two,. whatever. That is what happens when a person chooses to be in the public spotlight as the Palins and Lohans of the world have. I have no sympathy for any of these people. They have chosen the lives they are leading. You can call it terrorism if you want to. I don't. I call it the price of fame.

    Perfect post - you echo my sentiments exactly.
