Classy salad

Classy salad

In response to criticism of her parenting for allowing her son Trig to use the family dog as a stepstool, Sarah Palin proves that she’s a mature, rational person and a fine role model for children everywhere:

“Chill. At least Trig didn’t eat the dog. Did you go as crazy when your heroic Man-of-Your-Lifetime, Barack Obama, revealed he actually enjoyed eating dead dog meat?”

This reminds me of an insult I once read on a wall of my elementary school bathroom. (It used the term “green-monkey meat” but the idea is pretty much the same. In fact the 5th grader was funnier and more original.)

Then she calmed down a little and embraced her victimization:

Our pets, including Trig’s best buddy Jill Hadassah, are loved, spoiled and cared for more than some people care for their fellow man whose politics may not mesh with nonsensical liberally failed ways or don’t fit your flighty standards.

Ok.

Do you think she was trying to say that she cares more for her dog than liberals care for people with politics that have flighty nonsensical standards? Or is it that she loves her fellow man more than flighty people with  nonsensical liberally failed ways love their dogs? It’s hard to know.  She was obviously very upset and kind of lost control of herself there. In any case, she’s certainly better than other people, that’s clear.

But Jill Hadassah????  Had she and Bristol had a few too many Moscow Mules in the back of the limo one night when they named the dog that? Is it a tribute to Jill Biden and Hadassah Lieberman?  An insult? Whaaa?
