Obama and Palin represent opposing versions of the same identity politics. Based primarily on personality, love, or hatred for the other, it is politics driven primarily by emotion–not logic

BS! FWIW I'm getting really sick of your trying to dig up dirt on this good woman.

I have to say that Pissant is doing a service with his work, even though he is pretty much a one note wonder as far as Palin goes. He brings stuff that folks are saying that is provocative. It typically is a slander or libel of some sort when you get down to it, but he searches for effective ones and tries to post them as an argument against her. And frankly, it gives folks a chance to pick that argument apart.

Pissant is not engaging in the I hate Palin thing, or she is dumb thing. He attempts to find evidence. This is what we do here. You could call him a contrarian specialist.

He has his role around here, despicable as it is. In politics we call this the loyal opposition. Pissant mostly stays inside the bounds and passionately pushes his point of view. This is a good thing and not a bad one. But, of course, then you have to pick this crap apart and show him once again how this is so wrong. But, hey that's what we do here.
