i may start a riot by talking about politics on a mainly art-y blog, but, you know what? i don't give a shit. the truth is, is that politics matter more than what most people want to admit. i think sarah palin is probably a fine person. but totally and wholly unqualified to be vice president. i'd probably buy some Tupperware, silpada or pampered chef from her, but the sheer thought of her being second in command to someone who has serious health issues, including but not limited to cancer, makes me cry in my sleep.
her naivety and sheer lack of everything-- real world awareness, foreign policy and national politics experience (sorry, one governor's conference does not count. i've worked two. hosted one. one more than the republican vice presidential nominee has. scary, i know.)
i hope that in this season of craziness that everyone thinks long and hard about whom they cast their ballot for-- because it is important. really important.
