                                    Mint Julips? I think it is spelled Mint Juleps, unless you were making a reference I missed. So what is next, Stacy going to Derby Days to carry the banner for conservatism, tea parties, and Alabama football?

                                    “After making an ass of himself with a private citizen over nuclear opinions”

                                    Smitty, you are usually more…slippery than this.
                                    I know you really really really hope he made an ass of himself on this one. But this narrative thread will only work on the mindless masses that make up the Tea Partiers and sundry fools.
                                    BTW, a private citizen is one who wishes to remain private. If the jack-ass in a skirt wishes to remain private then she should, you know, maintain a level of privacy. If you and she and her devotees can’t handle the heat then stay out of the kitchen. In other words, the “private citizen” line ain’t working.
                                    As for your ” nuclear opinions” attempt, nice try. You’ll get em’ next time, tiger. They say opinions are like a$$holes: everyone has got one. In Palin’s case, she’s an a$$hole with opinions. Which validates her self-importance in ways she never imagined…
