In Which Ironicus Points Out That We Are Rubber, And You, Madam, Are Glue

Now, it's not often this blog takes offense at what others may say about us, mostly because what they're saying is true, but in our defense, aside from Friday Hound blogging, we never did pretend to have any socially redeeming value.

However, we feel we must respond to this.

Former Republican vice presidential nominee Sarah Palin is still mad at media coverage of her candidacy, particularly "anonymous, pathetic bloggers."

Madam, how dare you refer to us as anonymous.

She said reporters continue to question whether her 9-month-old son, Trig, is actually the child of her 18-year old daughter Bristol from a secret previous pregnancy. "I'll tell you, yesterday the Anchorage Daily News, they called again to ask — double-, triple-, quadruple-check — who is Trig's real mom," Palin told Esquire. "And I thought, 'Okay, more indication of continued problems in the world of journalism.'"

Umm...when you have a family where folks can't figure out who is related to whom, that's not a problem with us, it's a problem with you. Or you're from Kentucky, one of the two.

In the interview, Palin also reiterated her wish that she had had more input on strategy during the campaign."If I were giving advice to myself back on the day my candidacy was announced, I'd say, 'Tell the campaign that you'll be callin' some of the shots. Don't just assume that they know you well enough to make all your decisions for ya," Palin said.

Ya. And doncha jus' know that puttin' her in charge the that brainiac stuff is the right thing ta do 'cause she's got the pulse of the American people right there in the old melon, OK? You betcha.

Palin said she named Bristol in part for Bristol, Conn. — home of the sports network ESPN.

Now there' someone who wishes he was anonymous. You betcha. Hey, let's go kill us some wolves.
