'Only dead fish go with the flow'

You've been flushed, Palin. Bye. Even dull-witted Mark Steyn is surveying the carcass. Of course, he blames the media. They're so mean. This sudden bit of empathy from the same asshole who wants all brown-skinned people, especially foreigners, to cease to exist.

Most of those who sneer at Sarah Palin have no desire to live her life. But why not try to - what’s the word? - “empathize”? If you like Wasilla and hunting and snowmachining and moose stew and politics, is the last worth giving up everything else in the hopes that one day David Letterman and Maureen Dowd might decide Trig and Bristol and the rest are sufficiently non-risible to enable you to prosper in their world? And, putting aside the odds, would you really like to be the person you’d have to turn into under that scenario?

Yeah, Steyn, but we're not all crooks like Palin and Sanford and the whole conservative mindset. Keep swimming, Steyn and Palin, in your own filth. More than anything, Steyn and the conservative crew's reaction to Palin's obvious cowardice shows the gullibility of those who write for the right. They are not just corrupt, they are stupid. This is not about Trig, Bristol or Letterman. It is not about being a victim. It is about embezzlement, stupidity and greed. Pure and simple.

Steyn sees the world as he wants it to be: rich, white and above the law. It's all about them. The world does not work that way. Even children know that.
