Vanity Fair, The New York Times, The Washington Post - only a few amongst the plethora of media outlets who see Sarah Palin as a news item - all have articles out this week.

Sarah Palin: I do not care, DID not care, do not have an opinion, a judgment, a view, other than to think that she is the stereotypical politician. She seems vapid in interviews (I suspect she's got a better head on her shoulders than the press allows.) People are judgemental about her political aspirations and her children. The press is more interested in her attire (and the cost thereof), her kids and marital well-being, than anything. Unfortunately, Sarah Palin is fodder for the tabloids. I predict her political ambitions will be unmet, like so many other Americans along the way. Do I care? Not one whit.

What I DO care aboout is this nonsense appearing in the next issue of Vanity Fair. Please do not run out and buy a copy, because that would defeat the purpose of this writing. Catch it on the Washington Post and NYT issues (links below...). VF has acquired a nonsensical interview from the former boyfriend/sperm donor of and to Sarah Palin's teenage daughter, who had a baby last spring at age 18. This 19 year old "kid" gives his views and opinions about the Palin household and of Sarah Palin herself. What a stupid interview. (Again, see links below and do not dignify Vanity Fair w/ your payment.)

The only thing about this whole hoo-hah is my own wee mental humor, which thinks: "Omigoodness, what MUST the former and current boyfriends (of our daughters) think about our family, and ME, specifically?"

OMIGOODNESS.
