NYT: No Laughing Matter – Judith Warner goes to a Palin Rally

Haaa haa heee hee snort chuckle

“And, forced to make new friends on the spot, discovered that the Palin Phenomenon is no laughing matter.

Those who think that it is โ€” well, as Thompson warned on Wednesday, โ€œtheyโ€™ve got another thing coming.โ€

Please left coast media elites…continue to misunderstand, misconstue, and mistakenly believe whatever the heck you want to believe about us Palin lovers…..we will be laughing all the way to the White House….

“No, it wasnโ€™t funny, my morning with the hockey and the soccer moms, the homeschooling moms and the book club moms, the joyful moms who brought their children to see history in the making and spun them on the lawn, dancing, when music played. It was sobering. It was serious. It was an education.

โ€œPalin Powerโ€ isnโ€™t just about making hockey moms feel important. Itโ€™s not just about giving abortion rights opponents their due. Itโ€™s also, in obscure ways, about making yearnings come true โ€” deep, inchoate desires about respect and service, hierarchy and family that have somehow been successfully projected onto the figure of this unlikely woman and have stuck. For those of us who canโ€™t tap into those yearnings, it seems the Palin faithful are blind

Doesn’t it seem just a little bit funny that this New York Times Blogger is calling us blind, when the very article she quotes by Jonathan Haidt claims it is Liberals who find it impossible to understand us???
Laughing….
