    I guess if there are women and men involved, it's diverse.

    @Lysergic Asset: Here's the quote I love from the NYT book review:

    Enjoy!

    Elsewhere in this volume, she talks about creationism, saying she "didn’t believe in the theory that human beings — thinking, loving beings — originated from fish that sprouted legs and crawled out of the sea" or from "monkeys who eventually swung down from the trees."

    @Banjo-Sea Kitten: Technically, it's more like "and" than "or"--we's fishmonkies, plain and simple (actually, of course, it's a bit more complex than that, but nevermind). But I'm guessing that wasn't her objection.

    what jeopardy? the logic of writing to your shadow self, "[shadow self], we love you," strikes me as lynchian in the extreme. (cue synths, over-compressed white noise, a single flickering candle...)

    Wow! Angry!

    But the real problem is, all too many people DO take what Sarah Palin says seriously, just because it fits with their thinking. And while none of them read the Washington Post, they find the article via Google or AOL, and the damage is done.

    In reply to Washington Post Explains Palin Op-Ed: We Did It For Attention
    Dude, I have a great idea for the Washington Post - you know what would get them LOADS of attention? An op-ed by David Duke! Or Jon Gosselin! Or Charles Manson could write something for the paper, possibly in feces! Seriously, if the sole object of journalism is to stir up tabloidy controversy, there are loads of better ways to go about it.

    If, on the other hand, you want to pander to a disturbingly influential segment of the populace that clings desperately to nonsensical pseudo-science and bigotry and possibly also please your corporate advertisers who would really feel more comfortable without all that well-meaning but profit-reducing governement regulation, then you have hit the Palin jackpot, Mr. Hiatt.
