A Message to You, Rudy

Dear Rudy,

The next time you decide to spend prime stage time sneering and mocking Obama's experience from two decades ago as a "community organizer," perhaps you should consider the fact that your party's current nominee for Vice President also cut her teeth as a... community organizer.

Oh wait, I'm sorry, every time I say "community organizer," I'm supposed to smirk and chuckle, right?

Smirk.

Chuckle.

Y'all are awfully proud of Sarah Palin's experience as a PTA member, aren'tcha? But wait one cotton pickin' minute... isn't the PTA a voluntary organization? Don't members organize their communities in order to create positive change in schools? Hasn't Sen. McCain lauded his running mate's efforts at the community level, saying that running for the PTA reflected her courage? And doesn't this courageous experience kinda make Palin's history that of a, er, community organizer, y'know, before all of her extensive executive experience as a small-town mayor and um, foreign policy veteran (I'm so glad she's dealt hands-on with all of that raging Canadian and Russian turmoil so that the rest of us wouldn't have to)?

Rudy, does this community organizer black mark mean that she shouldn't be hired, either? Urg, I'm so freakin' confused here--am I supposed to smirk and chuckle now?

Hmm. Maybe I'll just leave all of the smirking and chuckling to you.

Fuck right off, you raging idiot and failed Presidential candidate,

Diana
