What we have is a Mr Brian Beutler (Talking Points Memo) saying "Sarah Palin Calls Joe Miller A Lost Cause, Quotes Scopes Monkey Trial Attorney." That would be the famous Clarence Darrow.♠
Law Professor Ann Althouse thinks that Mr Beutler is patronizing and ignorant, at the same time.
My question is, if Ms Palin is the ignorant person TPM thinks she is, then isn't this TPM post and like blog posts the same as shooting fish in a barrel?

♠ As I recall, the whole John Scopes trial was an agreed deal in order to bring attention to the Tennessee Town where it took place. It was great theater.

You should definitely post that "Sarah Palin Channel" SNL skit video on your blog template header--because you are definitely becoming the.
Real topics, please. This is getting deathly dull.

Cliff has an "anomaly fetish."
Palin simply fits into his pedantic focus on statistical outliers.
As long as her gravitas far out weighs any jusitfication, he will dwell. I think, it's because he is curious as to how and why?
No doubt he sees what we see, but he processes it differently. Like a socio-anthropologist studying an isolated tribe, he watches intently. On occasion, he prods us to see how we react.
Exactly!

Just to back up what Jack Mitchell said, here is a video at the Ann Althouse blog site that had me laughing even the third time I ran it.
Sure, it was a setup, but it was plausible and it was funny. For the record, I do think President Barack Obama is a Keynesian. Heck, I used to be a Keynesian, back in the day. Only in the last decade have I come to question that view.
