Fantasy Island
Are Republicans losing their grip on reality?
By Jacob Weisberg
Posted Friday, May 20, 2011, at 12:22 PM ET
At a press conference last week, someone asked Chris Christie for his views on evolution vs. creationism. "That's none of your business," the New Jersey governor barked in response.

further down:

Then there are all the mundane, material facts that Republicans choose to "doubt." The market in Obama lies has moved in rough parallel to the recent silver bubble. Over a period of months, the paranoid and foolish bought in, driving up the price. Republican candidates tried to find sly ways to signal skepticism about the President's American-ness and Christianity without sounding like complete imbeciles. Then Donald Trump, for whom that's not a problem, started buying in bulk. This infuriated the outflanked Sarah Palin, who used to have this wackadoodle territory to herself. Then President Obama released his long-form birth certificate, the bubble burst, and Trump was publicly ruined at the White House Correspondents' Dinner. With birther sentiment deflated, Palin has moved on to a new, no less idiotic slander, that William Ayers*, the former Weather Underground leader, might have written Obama's memoirs.

Gotta love Sarah...well maybe not, but she is always good for a laugh. I actually respect her for trying but she has one problem, she opens her mouth and has no idea what may come out. Maybe if she released a porn video folks would....well, you know!

Palin is done. Article coming out that even Roger Ailes thinks she's stupid. Michelle Bachmann will remain the Tea Party whackaloon slot-filler.

Which is good, as it will give us some entertainment until the election. Huntsman's a no go, as is Herman Cain in that regard.
