Sarah Palin’s disastrous interview with Katie Couric last week has been widely criticized, and some sound bites have been played over and over again, such as Palin’s absurd statements about Putin rearing his head over Alaska, but every part of the interview revealed that she is a person who has never seriously considered any issues regarding matters outside “the great state of Alaska.” On top of that, she tries to mask her ignorance by being arrogant and condescending. Here’s one of the lesser-heard exchanges from the interview:
Couric: In preparing for this conversation, a lot of our viewers … and Internet users wanted to know why you did not get a passport until last year. And they wondered if that indicated a lack of interest and curiosity in the world.
Palin: I'm not one of those who maybe came from a background of, you know, kids who perhaps graduate college and their parents give them a passport and give them a backpack and say go off and travel the world.
No, I've worked all my life. In fact, I usually had two jobs all my life until I had kids. I was not a part of, I guess, that culture. The way that I have understood the world is through education, through books, through mediums that have provided me a lot of perspective on the world.
There were a lot of ways she could have answered this question without insulting people who actually do travel abroad. Apparently she believes that only spoiled rich kids would travel outside the U.S. and only because their parents tell them to do so. It doesn’t occur to her that there are people who have a natural curiosity to see the world, and who might work to save money so they can travel.
And look at the last sentence. This woman has a degree in journalism, and she doesn’t know that the correct plural form is “media.” Somehow she missed that snippet of information during her six years at five colleges. When you use the plural form “mediums,” you are referring to psychic people, as in the TV show “Medium.” I don’t think that’s what she meant to say.
After her performance at this interview, plus her consistently absurd answers to the few questions she has taken from reporters, I seriously believe that the McCain camp will have to let her go. They have no other choice. And it will happen before the debate on Thursday. They will find a time to announce it when it is most likely to be overshadowed by other news – which shouldn’t be too hard to find these days – and they will wait as long as possible, to give Joe Biden as little time as possible to prepare for a different opponent. But it is going to happen.

Is McCain ready to implode?
I’m getting addicted to reading political news coverage. It’s fascinating and scary at the same time to watch what is happening. It’s truly amazing to see the McCain/Palin campaign implode, and it is frightening to see that McCain is still even with Obama in polls. It can only be a matter of time before that starts to change. I’ve never quite understood why anyone would want to vote Republican, but now it’s even harder to comprehend. Each day brings new damaging revelations. Palin is emerging not only as a person who’s ignorant of anything that doesn’t involve moose or hockey, but also as a shrewd politician who governs by secrecy, favoritism, and lack of willingness to listen to critics. Sounds eerily familiar to George W. Bush. And poor McCain, I actually feel sorry for him. At one point he was known for his honesty and integrity, but he has given up every shred of that in order to become “electable,” and he doesn’t look like he’s enjoying his new persona at all.
It’s interesting to see how McCain and Obama are responding to the current financial crisis. McCain comes out with rash statements that are meant to sound decisive but turn out to be hotheaded, and he has to backtrack and change his mind on a daily basis. Obama, on the other hand, chooses to step back and review the current situation and discuss the options with financial advisors before he will announce specific plans for dealing with the crisis.
Who would you rather want to be president? Someone who favors rash decisions that turn out to be wrong? Or someone who wants to absorb and understand the facts and discuss options and scenarios with knowledgeable people before reaching any conclusions? That should be an easy choice. Of course a president must be decisive, but a president should also be levelheaded and capable of making rational, intelligent, and carefully deliberated decisions. The ability to think before acting is a mark of wisdom. So is the willingness to listen to people who disagree with you.
Oh, and by the way, with all the Republican chatter about “tax-and-spend” Democrats, it’s worth noting that a simple statistical analysis of economic conditions from 1959 to 2007 shows that under Democratic presidents, the economy does better on every important measure. Taxes are lower, government spending is lower, unemployment is lower, inflation is lower, budget deficit is lower (or surplus is higher) and the economy is growing at a faster rate. Again, it should be an easy choice.

One Scary Lady
I stand corrected. Sarah Barracuda is not entertaining; she’s downright scary. It’s not her soap opera family (though the hypocrisy is appalling: the media are told to stay away from the pregnant teenage daughter, yet the poor girl and her hapless boyfriend are placed in the front row during Palin’s convention speech); it’s the issues. The more I read about Palin, the less I like her. To think that Hillary supporters would ever vote for this woman is preposterous. She stands for the exact opposite of everything Hillary stands for. Sarah Palin is pro-life, anti-gay, anti-gun control. As the mayor of Wasilla she wanted to ban books from the local library and threatened to fire the librarian when she wouldn’t comply. She wants creationism taught in schools. Her answer to our energy problems is simple: Drill, drill, drill for more oil. Nothing about saving energy.
She’s far to the right of John McCain, and disagrees with him on issues where he has taken a moderate stand. For example, she doesn’t think global warming is caused by humans and thus wants to do nothing about it. She wants to drill in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge, which McCain does not. She is by no means anti-lobbyism; she hired a lobbyist to secure federal funds for the tiny town of Wasilla. She was in favor of the “Bridge to Nowhere” until it was politically convenient to oppose it. Her economic politics are reckless, reminiscent of George W. Bush. I read about this on blogs (but, I admit, not from any “reputable” sources). Apparently, as mayor of Wasilla she turned a balanced budget into a large deficit. She lowered taxes for businesses but raised taxes for ordinary people. As governor of Alaska she wants to hand the state’s surplus out to citizens while borrowing money for necessary projects.
I watched part of her speech at the Republican National Convention last night – I couldn’t bear to watch it all, but I watched enough to see that she’s one tough lady. The blog rumors have it that she’s ambitious, ruthless, and stops at nothing to get what she wants. One of the TV commentators pointed out that her speech brought the culture wars back into the spotlight. Hasn’t John McCain tried to position himself as someone who can work across the aisle and favors bipartisanship? God help us if this woman is elected to the second-highest office in the nation. I hope that the American people will see her extremist views and stay far, far away from her.

A Brilliant Choice, Indeed
In my latest post I said that McCain’s choice of Alaska Governor Sarah Palin for VP was a brilliant move. Well, the line between genius and madness is a fine one, and we have yet to see which it is in this case. It may be a brilliant move, indeed – for the Democrats.
So far it is at least very entertaining, with Palin’s soap opera life story being unrolled in the media. First, there are the rumors all over the internet that Palin’s five months old baby is really the child of her teenage daughter. Then the campaign comes out with news that the teenage daughter is indeed pregnant (conveniently, she’s exactly five months pregnant, effectively putting an end to the rumors). None of this should matter, of course, except that it does bear some relevance to Palin's political positions. She, her baby (who was born with Down Syndrome), and her daughter are living proof of Palin’s pro-life ideals, which will surely make the Evangelicals happy (though they’ll have to overlook the moral issue of an unwed teenage mom). To others, her daughter’s pregnancy is evidence of the folly of Palin’s abstinence-only sex education policy.
Even if Palin’s and her daughter’s reproductive choices should be off-limits, thornier issues are surfacing. Such as the ethical investigation into her possible attempt to get her ex-brother-in-law fired from his job as a state trooper, with Palin ultimately firing his boss for not complying. The report on this issue will be released a few days before the general election. There’s also the question of whether she really was against the “Bridge to Nowhere” and other earmarks, or if she’s simply a political opportunist just like everyone else, taking the position that best suits her at the moment.
However these issues play out, it becomes increasingly clear that McCain made a very spontaneous decision that could turn out to be disastrous for him. He has effectively undercut his own casting of Obama as not being ready to lead. He has made people seriously question his judgment and ability to make important decisions. My guess is that the social conservative voters are going to love Palin, and McCain will largely have secured their support with this choice. But he’ll have independent voters and moderate Republicans scratching their heads. We’ll have to see how Palin fares once she starts actually saying something, other than talking about her family and her general ideas about politics. But it’s hard to imagine that she’ll do well discussing foreign policy, national security, or economy.
Obama seems to be born under a lucky star that has helped him so far in his political career. This comes just as his poll numbers started slipping. It could be the gift he needs to keep going. Thank you, John McCain!

Who picked the best VP?
I hate to say this, but McCain’s choice of Alaska governor Sarah Palin for VP is a brilliant move, and a great way to invigorate his campaign. She’s young – helping to quell concerns about McCain’s age. She’s a woman – attractive to discontented Hillary supporters. She’s conservative and pro-life, helping to attract the evangelical crowd. She’s a Washington outsider, bolstering the Republican ticket’s ability to bring a message of change. This is, quite simply, a bold and daring choice. And it makes one wonder if the Republicans may overrun the Democrats and serve up the first female presidential candidate. Actually, the strongest female leaders in Europe – Margaret Thatcher and Angela Merkel – have been conservatives. Could it be that a woman has to be a conservative to be seen as “tough” enough to become a leader? Liberal woman may be perceived as “softer” and can’t convince people that they have the stamina to be world leaders.
Of course, that’s speculation. Right now I’m afraid McCain has won this round. Obama’s choice of Joe Biden as his running mate pales in comparison. Biden is a good guy, but he’s a safe choice. He complements Obama on foreign policy, connection with working class voters, age, and experience. But he doesn’t make the ticket more dynamic. Perhaps the Democrats figured that Obama can carry the excitement all by himself and needed somebody to ground him. But people don’t want to be grounded; they want to be lifted up to a higher vision. This one is a score for the Republicans, and they are darned smart to announce it the day after Obama’s historic acceptance speech. I was working on a blog entry about Obama’s nomination, but now that seems old and stale. If it has that kind of effect on my little blog, imagine what it does to the big media machine. But fortunately things move fast in politics, and a lot can happen before Election Day. The excitement will wear off and other issues will become more important.
And while McCain's choice is smart, it's also a gamble that's sure to put off some Republican voters. It's interesting how both Obama and McCain chose running mates that undercut some of their core arguments. Obama talks about bringing change to Washington, yet chooses a VP who has worked in Washington politics all his life. McCain's hammers Obama for lack of experience, yet chooses a running mate who is even younger and less experienced. It will be interesting to see how that all plays out once the excitement settles down and the debates begin.
And we should all remember that we are not voting for a black candidate, a female candidate, or a war hero candidate. We are voting for the person who is best suited to be the leader of the most powerful country in the world. McCain’s many years of service and experience apparently have not brought him insight and wisdom when it comes to world affairs. And that’s an area where Sarah Palin can’t help him. In contrast, Obama’s speech yesterday demonstrated, once again, that he has the insight, the intelligence, and the judgment to make decisions that are in the best interest of the United States and the World.

My Life as a Football Mom
My 9-year-old son Nicklas is a sports nut. He wants to participate in every conceivable sport, and so far he’s been involved in soccer, basketball, baseball, swimming and tai-kwon-do. But this summer he decided that he wants to play football – not flag football, but real football, with full equipment. That did not make me happy. I consider football to be a dangerous sport that promotes aggression. I know this is heresy in the U.S. (and especially in Champaign, Illinois), but I have never been able to understand the appeal of that game; to me it looks pointless. All I see are two groups of big guys standing opposite each other. At a given signal they charge, struggling to knock each other down, until the referee blows his whistle. Then they withdraw, until it’s time to start over again. Somewhere in all this, there’s a ball floating around, but how anyone can keep track of that is beyond my comprehension.
However, Nicklas is convinced that he is the next Eli Manning, and who am I to crush his dreams, so when he brought home a flyer about a new football league in town, I agree to sign him up. But I knew we would have problems when I saw that all the important parent meetings and equipment handouts were scheduled in mid-July, while we were on vacation. I had to scramble to get everything done as soon as we got home, and we immediately started out with practices every single night for two weeks. Most of the parents actually camp out at the practice field, watching the kids from 6:00 – 7:30 pm. Who has time for that? I, on the other hand, rush home from work, rush Nicklas to practice, rush home to cook dinner, rush back to pick him up… you get the picture (OK, some days my husband comes home from work early enough to pick him up – yes, he usually works that late).
To make matters worse, we had scheduled a trip to South Dakota on the weekend of the first game, so I had to tell the coach that Nicklas wouldn’t be there. That was OK, but there was another problem – Nicklas hadn’t been weighed on the official scale that the football league is using. (Actually, he was weighed when he got his equipment, but the person who weighed him forgot to record it.) So I get an email from the coach saying that he has to report on Saturday morning to be weighed. Well, that wasn’t possible since we would be out of town. The coach gives me the name and phone number of a person to call in order to resolve this matter. I have no idea who this person is, but I call him and start explaining the problem. It turns out that he is the president of the football league, he has no time for small matters like this, and he certainly has no patience for ignorant people like me.
Nicklas must be weighed on this particular scale, which is on loan from the wrestling team for just one day. I try to ask if he could be weighed at a different scale, or if they could just go by the weight that was recorded when he had a sports physical in June. But no, that’s not OK. I ask the guy what I’m supposed to do, and he finally has had enough of me and yells, “It’s your own fault, you choose to be out of town when football season has started.” Uh oh, I’m afraid we just don’t have the level of commitment it takes to be a dedicated football family.
But then I see my son in his full football gear, broad shoulders, padded pants, and a big helmet. I see him come out of practice drenched with sweat, not complaining one bit about the hard work and rough tumbling. I see his excitement when the coach tells him that he is one of the fastest players and a valuable addition to the team. And I can’t help being a little bit proud of my budding quarterback. Maybe we can get used to this after all.

Money or Happiness?
This blog shouldn't be all about politics - so here’s something completely different to ponder. A study at the University of Illinois has looked at the correlation between happiness and money. The researchers found that the happier you are, the more money you make – until you reach a certain point. If you are blissfully happy; that is, if you are scoring a happiness level of 10 on a 1-10 scale, you earn less than people who score 8 or 9. Similar findings have been reported in other studies.
So what do the researchers conclude? A little unhappiness is good for you. It’s fine to be reasonably happy, but you need a sliver of dissatisfaction, because is will make you more likely to work harder and strive to make things better. If you are overly optimistic, the researchers contend, you’ll have less self control and be more complacent, and you won’t do as well in terms of career and wealth. The scientists suggest that if you are “too” happy, you should surround yourself with negative people who can drag you down to a level where you start caring about doing something with your life and making money.
These conclusions may have been valid, if they were based on a longitudinal study and found that ten years later these “overly optimistic” people were suffering and unhappy, because they hadn’t become wealthy. But that may not be the case at all.
Apparently, it doesn’t occur to the researchers that money may not be the ultimate goal for everyone. Maybe the “10s” are blissfully happy, exactly because they have realized that life isn’t about making money. Who is to assume that it is more important to be rich than happy? If you are blissfully happy, do you need money? Maybe the people who score “10” are those who have found that the pursuit of happiness does not equal the pursuit of money. Maybe they have moved beyond the desire for material possessions and found happiness through love, relationships, good health, and overall quality of life.
It would be very interesting to take a closer look at the people who score a “ten” in happiness. Are they Buddhist monks who have reached spiritual enlightenment? Or are they, as the researchers imply, naïve airheads who will at some point fall flat, because they don’t know how to worry about important things in life?
Without knowing more about these studies than what has been reported in the press, one can certainly draw a conclusion that’s very different from what the researchers suggest:
Making more money will increase your happiness, up to a certain point. If you want to become blissfully happy, you must transcend the need to make money and let go of your material desires.
