Truthiness, Women & Politics...

--No talking about politics, ok? says a book club member right off the start. (book: Special Topics in Calamity Physics).

--I don't want to see anymore, says another book club woman who flipped over this week's Newsweek, below right, with McCain and Palin on the cover.

--Three of her best friends may not vote for her, says yet another.

--John Feehery, a Republican strategist, said the campaign is entering a stage in which skirmishes over the facts are less important than the dominant themes that are forming voters' opinions of the candidates. (The same article points out that half-truths become truths when candidates perpetuate them enough). 

--Me: Well, she's good arm candy, she, the it celebrity mom-of-the-moment.

Want to see an Amazing Woman?  My Houston friend, mother of my god daughter, sent me this.

My mother knew a woman without arms who could do everything.
I look upon Palin as an enemy. Haven't we all known someone like her who was always playing up to men and putting other women down to get ahead?
Isn't she Cindy McCain's replacement, arm candy for the old guy?
She sure turns me off.
