Silly Sarah.

"We believe that the best of America is in these small towns that we get to visit, and in these wonderful little pockets of what I call the real America, being here with all of you hard-working, very patriotic, um, very, um, pro-America areas of this great nation."
-- Sarah Palin, North Carolina rally, October 16, 2008

So, let me get this straight. I grew up in a city, so by Governor Palin's standards, not actually in "real America." This means I do not live in a "pro-America" area of the country. Well, I'll be damned. You'd think that considering Baltimore's role in the War of 1812, and the freakin' fact that our national anthem was written here, we would be considered "pro-America." Do I have to move to a small town to be considered a real American now? Am I only American by geographical location? Please enlighten us, Sarah. I am neither a plumber, hockey mom, nor a beer drinker, so that might rule me out.

You know who's not "pro-America," Sarah? People who are members of political parties that advocate secession from the union. You might know a thing or two about that. This woman, she is so insulting.

You know, with as much as I talk politics, you'd think I'd have a political icon or two.

In happier news, I got bellydance swag from medievalmuse in the mail. Soooo shiny! I'm sure you'll see them in pics soon. Thank you for thinking of me. :)
