Palin ostracized herself

Sarah Palin feels she was treated unfairly by the media. Strangely, the majority of the other candidates, present and past, have been able to handle the mockery coming from "Saturday Night Live" like adults. Most of them appeared on the show, yes, including Palin. Hmm, could it really have been the nefarious forces of NBC, MSNBC, SNL and Katie Couric that ostracized her from chances at the vice presidency and American people? No, I think it truly was her impossibly concealable incompetence, diva-like attitude and nauseatingly, quirky, folksy-persona — and her childish beliefs on science. Actually, I retract childish. Most children know that dinosaurs did not die out 6,000 years ago.
