But I have to confess: I am absolutely baffled by the continued GOP support for Palin. My best guess is that those who support her have a very different concept of the presidency than I do. I see the president as someone who actually has to run the country, so I value traits such as competence and knowledge. They see the presidency in more symbolic terms, which means they value those candidates who epitomize America as they wish to see it. Note to writer of article:
Mr. Bookman -- Jay:
Saturday Night Live features an actress named Tina Fey spoofing Gov. Palin. That is not really Sarah Palin.
If you need, print this out and tape it under your TV.
Or be like most of us and just don't watch NBC.
Yeah, talk about competence and knowledge... he is part of the media making the lies, then believes them himself. What does that say about Mr. Bookman’s own knowledge and competence?
