"You've got to hear this," a fellow Obamaniac insisted. A waitress at the diner where she'd been eating her breakfast had just spent a good portion of her service trying to convince her that Sarah Palin is highly intelligent - she only acted dumb because the Republican National Committee order her to "play the dumb broad to get men to vote for her."
My thanks go to that waitress. I have yet another reason to get down and kiss the pro-America ground I walk on because Sarah Palin won't be in charge of it. It's why I'm almost excited to read the results of a reported $7 million book deal expected for the former vice presidential candidate.
It's like my own daily affirmation a la Democratic Senate Candidate (and holding) Al Franken's alter ego Stuart Smalley. I'm good enough. I'm smart enough, and doggone it, she's not my vice president. Because, frankly (no pun intended), the idea of any woman throwing her support behind "a smart woman who's consented to dumb herself down" to win the approval of the guys who prefer the size of her rack to the size of her brain means women need a serious self esteem boost. It forces me to wonder how many women don't yet think they're good enough or smart enough to share their honest opinions with the world.
Want to feel better about yourself, smarter than someone else? Pick up a book that tells the tales of a woman who thumbs her nose at science and can't even read words strung together on a Starbucks cupholder that rests in her hand.You'll feel better in no time.
