Who pays attention to Paris Hilton anymore?

Now if you'll excuse me, I'm off to play Palin a little soundtrack of woe on the world's tiniest violin.

Throughout the entire election, Palin was proud of her "hockey mom" status - but here questions class issues?

“It’s going to be interesting to see how that plays out and I think that as we watch that we will perhaps be able to prove that there is a class issue here also that was such a factor in the scrutiny of my candidacy versus, say, the scrutiny of what her candidacy may be.”


Is she new to this country? First of all DEAR SARAH - you YOURSELF went on SNL and MOCKED YOURSELF. The statements below just proves her ignorance. What she got during the election is nothing compared to what she would have got if (heaven forbid) she was elected...

"She observed that Katie Couric and Tina Fey have been “capitalizing on” and “exploiting” her. “I did see that Tina Fey was named entertainer of the year and Katie Couric’s ratings have risen,” she said. “And I know that a lot of people are capitalizing on, oh I don’t know, perhaps some exploiting that was done via me, my family, my administration. That’s a little bit perplexing, but it also says a great deal about our society.”

Right. As if Palin got nothing out of the deal - she went on SNL, as all politicians do, to show she can laugh at herself and she's "down with it". And she went to Couric for a public forum to advertise both herself and McCain's campaign platform without using ad dollars. Everyone got what they wanted. (Well, maybe not in the latter case, but it's not Couric's fault that Palin ****ed up so thoroughly.)

Well she was exploited, but it wasn't by them. It was by her own party.

Pssh, I am so over Sarah Palin. Never has anyone so one dimensional warranted so many examinations from so many different angles.

I dunno, Roscoe. I think the country's gonna have better things to think about for the next few years than Sarah.

“Is it political? Is it sexism?” she asked. “What is it that drives someone to believe the worst and perpetuate the worst in terms of gossip and lies?”

She will be remembered as the patron saint of hypocrites.

Not to mention the proud Jane sixpack got herself hundreds and hundreds and hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of non-Wal Mart clothes and accessories.

And exploiting Diet Dr. Pepper in the process!

It's really hard to type this response with my SKIN CRAWLING! I really hate the whole victim thing Palin is doing right now. The only child that has really been scrutinized is Bristol because of Palin's abstinence preachings. The media has pretty much left the Obama girls alone because not only are they younger, but they weren't pregnant and tried to hide it with their brother when Palin introduced her family. Bristol and Levi have "dropped out" of school because they are getting their GED online- not attending classes with their classmates. The way that Palin is making all of these snide comments is just ridiculous and completely unprofessional. There are so many more candidates who deserve to be the frontrunners in the Republican party and I'm really sick of how Palin is using the media and how Fox is carrying on this love affair with her- especially Greta. Puhleeze- just go away! That folksy "charm" is just so fake and inappropriate. To me, this interview has come across very hypocritical. okay, just sayin'
