Einstein nailed it

There's a quotation generally attributed to Albert Einstein that defines insanity as doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results. Based on that definition, the United States must be insane. National insanity is the only thing that explains an airhead like Baked Alaska as the next VP.

From the Department of Half-Assed Witticisms Just Begging for a Response: Baked Alaska claims the only difference between pit bulls and hockey moms is lipstick. Pit bulls are ugly and often have vicious dispositions; Alaska brags about being a hockey mom. Draw your own conclusions. Asked about the words "under God" in the pledge of allegiance, Alaska says if it was good enough for the founding fathers, it's good enough for her. What an airhead. Somebody take her into a quiet room and explain stuff to her.

Alaska's one of those Christians that wants books removed from public libraries if they don't meet her moral standards. While she was mayor of that dipshit burg up north, she wanted to fire the head librarian who was resisting her censorship attempts. Can you say Taliban ? God help us if this frakkin' halfwit ever makes it to the Oval Office.

The word I've read that seems to best describe the public reaction to Baked Alaska's RNC speech Wednesday night is hysteria. I'm imagining the mob of evangelunicals in the audience swaying, eyes closed, in the throes of rapture, bliss, or whatever they call it when they go into those semi-catatonic states. The media, including all the conservative blogs, have been pissing their pants over the beauty queen. Here's the most revealing point though: As the media frenzy crests and evangelunical adoration erupts, the campaign is pulling the airhead off the road and shipping her lame ass back home. The implication is they can't risk putting that dimbo in front of cameras and microphones and having her bimbo-ness exposed for the thinking world to see. Frakking incredible.

By the way, that speech that has the world in a foaming-at-mouth frenzy was actually written for a male VP nominee a week before Baked Alaska was announced. After she was designated, the speech was tinkered with a little, I would imagine to prevent incorrect gender references. At wonkette, they're referring to BA as a snowbilly. I like it.
