Our Un-Enlightenment

Thursday’s vice presidential debates revealed little we don’t already know about the potential presidential second bananas.

Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin doesn’t have a full understanding of this campaign, and her accent makes me cringe. Her opponent, Delaware Sen. Joe Biden, contradicted hisprevious stance in certain finance-related Senate votes, but tried to twist the current situation to appear to be Sen. John McCain’s fault.

What we have here is a case of who-gives-a-damn.

I don’t know how Palin got to where she is, but someone was smoking something. As for Biden, he sounds more like former democratic candidate John Kerry — exactly what they don’t need.

Given these events, I’m not surprised that America (and Yahoo.com) decided that Hannah Montana’s fake tan was as groundbreaking as the debates.
