I don't plan on reading Ms. Palin's book, but when someone on an Amazon discussion with the screen name "I Miss W" (groan) said Palin and her family were attractive and intelligent, I said, "You think she's intelligent? Are you serious?"
I Miss W said that Sarah Palin has accomplished more than I ever have. That wasn't my point, but still, ouch.
Oh, I dressed as Sarah Palin last year for Halloween. That was fun.
NotMyGod: I don't plan on reading Ms. Palin's book, but when
I've always been astounded by Palin Supporters delusional claims that we're "afraid of her great intellect".
People can provide many examples of WHY they feel she is not too bright (ign0rant may be a bit too extreme a description).

(1) She majored in journalism but there’s no evidence that she ever wrote anything.
Writing is a highly g-loaded task, so the lack of anything that she’s written could
indicate her inability to write at a competent level.
(2) She had to hire an administrator to run the “city” of Wasilla.
Indicates she wasn’t smart enough to run the city herself?
(3) Interest in evangelical Christianity.
People who believe in the literal word of the Bible and get into evangelical Christianity
are, on average, less intelligent than mainline Protestants.
(4) No intellectual hobbies.
Smart people have intellectual hobbies. Sarah likes to hunt moose.
(5) Proleness
Sarah’s parents are school teachers, the quintessential middle class jobs, but Sarah has clearly sunk to prole. Her husband hasn’t graduated from college, Track is not going to college, and Bristol gives no indication of being college-bound. Track arrested, Bristol pregnant at 17; markers of being prole rather than middle class.
Sinking in class below one’s parents tends to indicate having a lower IQ than one’s parents.
+++++
Palin Supporters should be able to provide many examples of her awe inspiring intellect. Right..?
Yet, they don't..because they can't..!!!
