Frank Schaefer, author of “Crazy for God: How I Grew Up as One of the Elect, Helped Found the Religious Right, and Lived to Take All (or Almost All) of It Back” has a great piece about the “counterintuitive contradictions” of the tea partiers bringing down their movement:
Thank God For Sarah Palin’s Picks! (Good News For Democrats) – Frank Schaeffer – Palin is endorsing people who are sure to implode in one way or another. November will be great for Democrats if Palin’s extremist religious picks wind up on the ticket all over America. Pray it’s so.
Earlier today, Sarah Palin invented the word ‘refudiate’ and compared herself to William Shakespeare, which led to the #ShakesPalin twitter hash.
Here’s Sarah Palin on Shakespeare:

And here’s Bill Shakespeare’s take on the rest of us, Sarah Palin included:
“To-morrow, and to-morrow, and to-morrow,
Creeps in this petty pace from day to day,
To the last syllable of recorded time;
And all our yesterdays have lighted fools
The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle!
Life’s but a walking shadow, a poor player
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage
And then is heard no more. It is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury
Signifying nothing.” — Macbeth (Act 5, Scene 5, lines 17-28)
