Getting offended by Letterman, I can understand, he talked shit about her kids.
Getting offended by Rahm... who was talking about other grown men and not any kids... that was a bit of overly-PC, whiny dipshitting.
Attacking Obama for a teleprompter then using hand notes for a Q&A session... that was het just showing she's down-folksy... let those elites use things like "Memory".
Now... giving Rush a pass for using the word repeatedly (in much of the same context as Rahm) was a pretty BIG DEAL. Clearly, she is scared to piss off Rush. And most people realize this now. Rush is doing his part to marginalize palin... as is Colbert, OReilly, hume, and most other right-wing voices all at once.
Maybe they realize it's time to minimize this tea party thing before the 2010 primaries... a good idea from their standpoint...
