Sarah Palin : A lipsticked pitbull that's a scaredy cat with the press


The LA Times reports that La Palin is being embargoed by the McCain campaign on account of the republicanos not believing it is in their best interest to have her speaking to the press.  In other words, they're afraid she's going to make a mistake as Todd Harris says in the video above; because she is not ready to give her opinion on anything a Vice-President could conceivably be involved as co-pilot of the President of the United States.

This is supposedly the woman who will be a heartbeat away from the presidency and who could most possibly succeed in office the 72 year-old John McCain. This is not just another GOP and John McCain strategic blunder. It is down right scary anybody would think this woman is ready to be POTUS.

H/T to Jay Rosen who twittered this news item to my attention with this quip :

You do realize that the three guys on the ticket will be on the Sunday shows while the woman is thought too frail, right?

Exactly.

Fauxminists are the product of a power structure that only values women as long as they enhance men in power; in this case the neo-cons and christianists that hijacked the GOP. Hence the alleged "equal opportunity employment" happy Bush administration.

Alberto Gonzales was good as long as he was justifying and promoting torture. Colin Powell was down with the white homies as long as he was spreading the lie of "weapons of mass destruction". And Condoleezza Rice is useful as Bush's ultimate war enforcer.

The GOP has turned equal opportunity into another tool for  the same anti-democratic power structure that incited the Civil Rights Movement. After all, masters have always had slaves as confidants and as part of their slave-holding team.

Words to live by

Play makes children nimble—neurobiologically, mentally, behaviorally—capable of adapting to a rapidly evolving world. That makes it just about the best preparation for life in the 21st century. Psychologists believe that play cajoles people toward their human potential because it preserves all the possibilities nervous systems tend to otherwise prune away...

There's only one graduation requirement and over 95 percent of students meet it. They have to write and present a thesis about how they're prepared to be an adult. It takes time to write, even more time to figure out

...Students have become lute-makers, auto technicians, musicians, equestrian-farmers, dedicated environmentalists. Some have started their own companies at 18. Others take retail or service jobs to get money for travel abroad...They do what they do not by default or by obligation but from a sense of understanding what they're doing and why...
(and) go on to lead deeply satisfying lives. Most are unusually resilient. Almost all feel that they are in control of their destiny.

The alumni study shows that a "spectacularly high number" pursue careers in the arts—music, art, dance, writing, acting. Math, business and education are popular routes, too.

...It may be...that the Sudbury-style schools work so well because they are small...But on a 10-acre estate in Massachusetts, 200 kids are having a hell of a time preparing for the future.


Hara Estroff Marano in "Psychology Today" May/June 2006, sizing up Sudbury Valley School
