		<description>i don't want to belabor the point because i know we've discussed it re gwb, but the way a person is perceived is 9/10ths the law and sarah palin comes off as a backwater soccer mom.  if she doesn't want to she's going to have to try harder.  and i know you think that her manner and social speaking skills shouldn't matter and that people should be able to dig deeper and see what she's really about, but you know what?  if she's as capable as the republicans claim she should be able to figure out how to help us see that.  it's not my job to make her look good in my mind.  it's hers and a fancy wardrobe isn't gonna do it.</description>

		<description>if only all we had to do was say something out loud to make it true.  i'd start with something like - 'there's a billion dollars in my purse right now, there's a billion dollars in my purse right now....' and then i would go shopping.  not that i am shallow or anything.  because i'm not.  i just like money and things.</description>

		<description>I wasn't trying to imply that they were out of line...just that there was a lot of money involved.

Still, I don't see how raising taxes on them is gonna lower the price of gas.</description>
