Low Expectations are a Beautiful Thing

The people I talk to today will tell me they love Sarah Palin. I just know it. She was like a cheerleader running for Student Body President who promises the football team a pop machine in the cafeteria and Fridays off.

"Are ya with me?"

Anyway, you know the best place to be when watching these debates? It isn't CNN. It isn't Fox or MSNBC.

The best place is Facebook.

I've been on Facebook for a while now and thoroughly enjoy catching up with old friends and making new ones as well. My favorite part of Facebook is the status update.

Catherine is "finally cuter than Heather Locklear."

Catherine is "thinking Todd Schnitt should move to Colorado."

Never is the status update feature more fun than during a debate. Here are some of mine along with my favorites from last night's gab fest.

Catherine is "glad Sarah worked in 'revelation'. I can drink my shot now."

Kenneth is "Palin voted 94 times to allow killing of moose from space satellites."

Chuck is "watching the SNL special. When is Tina Fey going to say Live from New York?"

Ron is "close to BINGO!"

Catherine "thinks Joe's confused by her sparkly teeth."

Kenneth is "Sniglet: trigonometry -- when Sarah Palin uses her son's name for political advantage. "

Catherine "everytime she says Israel my husband's kippa falls off."

Reggie "wants to know the difference between surge principles and counter-insurgency principles..."

Catherine is "happy she said McCain tapped her. Another shot!"

Reggie "wants a definition for the word 'quasi-caved.'

Kenneth: "a team of wild mavericks couldn't get me to listen to Palin again after tonight."

We had a good time watching something that was easily as disturbing and nauseating as it gets. Join Facebook, look me up, and take part in the conversation next time.

It shouldn't just be a place where ex-boyfriends find me.
