We haven’t written about the faux controversy over Sarah Palin’s writing a few words on the palm of her hand at the Tea Party convention, apparently as reminders for her speech or the Q & A session that followed. Liberals purported to find the presence of phrases like “tax cuts” significant. It isn’t clear why; pretty much everyone who gives a speech uses notes if he doesn’t actually read a prepared text, and Barack Obama seemingly can’t order a cheeseburger in a restaurant without his Teleprompter. So the Left’s huffing and puffing was pointless.
Which didn’t stop Palin from getting the last laugh. Campaigning for Governor Rick Perry in Texas yesterday, she wrote “Hi Mom!” on her palm:
It’s Palin’s secret weapon: she brings out the stupidity in her political opponents.
