Politico has an interesting article today airing lamentations of old-school conservatives regarding Sarah Palin's ever-increasing penchant for casting herself and her family as victims. Apparently, this is anathema to Palin's "blue blood" critics and they liken her to their other favorite old-time nemesis, Al Sharpton. What, of course, is left out of this comparison is that Sharpton (at least, the new Sharpton) airs mostly legitimate concerns. As well, as Slate points out in a response posting on their blog, it's not exactly breaking news that Will and company don't fancy Ms. Palin. Probably the most insightful aspect of the article is the ending... does Sarah Palin really care about the hate coming from that camp (who could probably learn a thing or two from Palin about rousing the house)...apparently, not much.
Here, Ms. Palin complaining about "50-year-old bully" Kathy Griffin:
...And Ms. Griffin's response
