"Sarah Palin Is Very Smart" Says Former Editor of Ms. Magazine, Democrat Journo

People who have never met Sarah Palin are falling over each other to call her the vilest and most contemptible names. They do not know her, know nothing about her. But they publish insults and dismissals of her as if they had known her all their life. Here is the viewpoint of a Democratic Party voter, journalist, and former editor of Ms. Magazine, who has actually met and spent time with Sarah Palin:

Now by “smart,” I don't refer to a person who is wily or calculating or nimble in the way of certain talented athletes who we admire but suspect don't really have serious brains in their skulls. I mean, instead, a mind that is thoughtful, curious, with a discernable pattern of associative thinking and insight. Palin asks questions, and probes linkages and logic that bring to mind a quirky law professor I once had. Palin is more than a “quick study”; I'd heard rumors around the campaign of her photographic memory and, frankly, I watched it in action. She sees. She processes. She questions, and only then, she acts. What is often called her “confidence” is actually a rarity in national politics: I saw a woman who knows exactly who she is. _Daily Beast_via_TomNelson

This is what Al Fin has been saying, although he has never met Governor Palin. Palin has been ambushed by every media dirty trick they could devise, and still smiles and continues working long hours from coast to coast, giving the media more time than Obama and Biden put together. In fact, the redistributionist duo has made itself very scarce on the media scene lately--concerned about several potentially embarassing questions that may come up.

Palin is real, she is authentic, she learns and grows and speaks her mind. Obama is a narcissist full of resentment and fear of being understood. If Obama ever speaks his mind, it is in a moment of carelessness--as when Obama confronted "Joe the Plumber" in the plumber's front yard.

If America chooses a phantom for president, and mocks and derides a genuine and authentic leader, that says more about what America is becoming than about the candidates themselves. Of course, the media bears much responsibility. Meanwhile, Oynklent Green looks on from the shadows.
