Title: British journalist on Sarah Palin (Election '08 slam-dunk contest)
Post by: billhoward on October 02, 2008, 06:46:51 PM
Britain may no longer be a first-rate military power. It still wields clout in wars fought with poisoned pens. Sarah is no match for cunning linguists at The Guardian (http://www.guardian.co.uk/music/musicblog/2008/oct/02/sarah.palin.rocks)

Quote from: Steven Wells: Why Sarah Palin is totally rock'n'rollSarah Palin has become the perfect embodiment of the live fast, die young and leave a good-looking corpse rock'n'roll aesthetic. ... faced with a reasonably competent interviewer on live TV she resembles us all in that dream we share about playing guitar live onstage with U2 ... The one where Bono beckons you into the limelight. You throw an incredibly sexy shape that has millions of U2 fans screaming in appreciation. And then you crap yourself as you remember that you can't actually play a single note. Except Palin doesn't crap herself. She babbles on, like Joey from the episode of Friends where he's convinced that if he makes French-sounding noises, he is in fact speaking French.
