Sarah Palin is the Empress-Queen of the screaming-for-screaming’s sake generation. The people who dismiss her book Going Rogue as the petty, vindictive meanderings of a preening paranoiac with the IQ of a celery stalk completely miss the book’s significance, because in some ways it’s really a revolutionary and innovative piece of literature.
Love this post by Matt Taibbi. I think he’s right in a big way. Andrew Sullivan and other, otherwise intelligent analysts of her career and her book are totally missing the point. It’s not a book, it’s not politics; it’s more like a bolt of pure Dada. And she doesn’t have to be conscious of what she’s doing or why she’s doing in order to be incredibly effective.blog comments powered by DisqusPosted on November 21, 2009 with Comments
