I was watching the news the other morning and a story about Sarah Palin came on, yeah. Apparently, during a little-noticed speech to a GOP dinner in Alaska last week, Palin rattled on for nearly an hour on a variety of topics, including why she thinks she loss, the media, and actress Ashley Judd, and Obama. She blames the media for the GOP loss in the election. She says that their coverage of her was slanted and they didn't focus on the important issues at hand., whatever that means. I am sure she is trying to point the finger of why she loss at the media though. In reality, she loss because she couldn't deal with the media effectively and she didn't take care to build a good public image of herself. Both are vital to being President or VP. The media just shows what you put out there for them. If you constantly say moronic things, then don't surprised when the media paints you as a moron. Her next statement about Ashley Judd shows what I'm talking about.
In regards to Judd's efforts with the Defenders of Wildlife Action Fund, an environmental organization that has mounted a campaign against the governor to halt the practice of aerial wolf hunting in Alaska, Palin said to her fellow Repubs., "stand up to those goofy Defenders of Wildlife celebrity starlets who don't even know about Alaska." That right there says it all. She called an environmental organization 'goofy' which does not show any professionalism (nor intellect for that matter), and she attacked one of the spokespersons rather than the issues of the group. Let's not forget, this is coming from a candidate who had Joe the Plumber as their 'celebrity' spokesperson lol. Over 45% of people polled last week said that their opinion of Palin has gotten worse since the elections. She is not helping herself with comments like these if she is serious about running again in 2012. We already knows she's bold, now she really needs to do something big to show people she has real brains, political strategy and innovation, and that she can handle running a country.
Moving On
It is once again necessary for me to make mention of Hollywood to help illustrate another important point. Lindsay Lohan, in a recent interview, the 22 year old starlett admitted she is having trouble paying her mortgage and other expenses, and get this, she blames all the "sicko fans" out there that are obsessed with her personal life for why she can't seem to land a role. Once again, pointing the finger at others for your miscalculations and failures does absolutely nothing to help anybody. Instead of blaming herself for being addicted to the bottle and her partying ways, she lashes out at fans and the media. Even though it was her partying, drinking, and drugging all night and then calling in sick to work on her movie the next day. The media only shows what you put out there.
You really were the one drinking, smoking weed, and driving while under the influence of crack all those times the cameras caught you after you had crashed into something with your Benz, so why are you surprised that your career has suffered?! People hate to see rich, talented people who have the world at their fingertips throwing their life away over stupid shit...it pisses them off and makes them resent you because you don't realize how truly blessed you have been. She needs to take responsibility for herself being in the unemployment line, clean herself up, go back to rehab and take it seriously this time, change her lifestyle for the better, and maybe then the public, producers and movie companies will want to invest in her again.
