Sunday's editorials and columns

Sunday's editorials and columns were enough to make one want to move to New Zealand or somewhere else far, far away. Daniel Rubin of Philly's Inquirer, who is covering the Fumo trial, observed that a majority of the jury pool had not even HEARD of Fumo -- ack! Their own state senator from Philadelphia. This led him to musings about the presidential race and conclusions that perhaps we deserve the presidents who we get. The Times' Frank Rich, Maureen Dowd, and Thomas Friedman were all on the same page as well.
What IS it with most of the media though? How come that nobody but a few have jumped all over Palin's inane contention that she is ready to take on the world because Alaska is so close to Russia. And I am ready to take over for Warren Buffet because I own Berkshire Hathaway stock.
Why isn't anyone focusing on trigger happy McCain instead of talking about Palin's glasses.
I think I'll consider moving to New Zealand.
