Ann Coulter at Human Events online: Sarah Palin: Conservative of the Year
Sarah Palin wins HUMAN EVENTS’ prestigious “Conservative of the Year” Award for 2008 for her genius at annoying all the right people.
Granted, one oughtn’t ascribe too much intellectual seriousness to Ann Coulter, but if the main criterion by which one ought to measure a ideological movement’s political hero is there capacity to annoy, then there is perhaps something wrong with one’s movement.
I would utterly ignore this piece, except ...

... I told Ed this morning that the only way we’re going to drum up even moderate interest in the site this week is to bait readers with posts about Palin or atheism. I guess I’ll start looking for atheism news after this . Who cares if Palin was qualified to be President? She was running with John McCain! There was no chance that ticket was going to place her anywhere near the presidency. In fact, I can’t think of a better place to put someone you wanted to keep away from the White House than on a ticket with McCain. Palin was a kick in the pants, she energized conservatives, ...

Sarah Palin reveals her biggest lesson from defeat
Top of the Ticket —
... Obviously, her new staff was worried sick Palin would make an irrecoverable blunder in her early days, so they kept her from the desperately curious press, which not only silenced her but created the "why is she hiding campaign?" and left the press to be fed tons of anti-Palin information by opponents. Then, when the McCain crew did roll her out, they revealed their suicide wish by starting with Charles Gibson and Katie Couric. Ann Coulter has her own take here on the Palin phenomenon. ...

Political Animal —
... arguing that Ann Coulter's piece on Sarah Palin was clear evidence of "the wrong direction the conservative movement is moving in" and the dominance of "anti-intellectualism" on the right. I finally read Coulter's piece, and I have to admit, it's even more inane than I expected. Coulter, heralded Palin's selection as "Conservative of the Year" and applauded the Alaska governor's role in politics. To hear Coulter tell it, Palin is a hero because she sent "the left into a tailspin of wanton despair." Who cares if Palin was qualified to be President? She was running with John ...
Sarah Palin Calendar 2009
Blue Star Chronicles —
... admired woman’ for eons. Interestingly, people voted for Palin over Oprah Winfrey. You might remember that Oprah didn’t want Sarah Palin on her show, you know, sitting on her couches and all. At least she didn’t want her until her audience got upset that she didn’t want her. Then she told some reporters that she DID want her … yet it still hasn’t happened. If I were Palin, it wouldn’t happen at this point.
She’s also been chosen “Conservative of the Year” for 2008.
The Sarah Palin Calendar is very nicely done ...
