… I’d let Katie Couric sit on my lap, too. She’s 53 (six years older than me) and she looks great.
But this is no news bunny. In an interview about her Harper’s photoshoot, she discussed her infamous hard interview with Sarah Palin:
As for Palin, in the Bazaar article Couric briefly revisits the infamous, election-changing...

I had a hard time deciding which paragraph from this excellent Matt Taibbi column to use to illustrate his point, that Sarah Palin is the perfect candidate for the her times. There are so many good paragraphs. But in the end, I chose this one:

Goldwater, the 1964 Republican presidential nominee, made his reputation four years earlier with an eloquent and intellectually coherent volume, The Conscience of a Conservative, which laid out a blueprint for the...

There was nothing wrong with her answer to a question on a possibly nuclear Iran. Except she kept calling it Iraq:
Sarah Palin is obviously running for president. This sort of thing just reinforces the perception she’s a lightweight.

Via the Chicago Tribune’s The Swamp:
Today, FOX News host Gregg Jarrett was talking about Republican Sarah Palin’s book tour and the crowd she is drawing at the start of it – no small turnout, with some 1,500 people lining up early this morning for a chance to get into this evening’s premier book-signing...

And they say the Associated Press serves no purpose. Here’s an AP fact check on Sarah Palin’s book. My favorites:
PALIN: Describing her resistance to federal stimulus money, Palin describes Alaska as a practical, libertarian haven of independent Americans who don’t want “help” from government busybodies.
THE FACTS: Alaska is also one of the states most...

You know how moderate U.S. Senate candidate Mark Kirk supposedly asked Sarah Palin for an endorsement. Rick Miller discovered it never happened:

This is sure to drive B.J. Stone insane with fury:
Talk-show host Sean Hannity, a vocal opponent of Barack Obama’s policies, said today he would not rule out a bid for the presidency in 2012.
Egged on by radio colleague Bill Cunningham, Hannity said he would consider entering the front lines of the political fray if...

The Washington Posts’ Howard Kurtz says the media needs to report that the words coming out of Sarah Palin’s mouth are not true:
Yes, there is a point where the media should say a politician is wrong, and this is the point. There may or may not be a legitimate discussion about the end-of-life counseling...

Now there’s a slight update: according to IESB, the shortlist is now only three names: Chris Evans (Sunshine, The Fantastic Four); Channing Tatum (G.I. Joe, Stop-Loss) and Sebastian Stan (Gossip Girl). I’ve stumped for Evans before, but am a bit surprised that he’s still on the list, because of that Fantastic Four association. But that’s no big deal in the long run, as the Marvel Studios film universe has nothing to do with the Fox version of Marvel’s characters. (Confusing!) Evans is easily the best choice here.
Feh. We need a traditional square-jawed hero for this role, not some pretty boy. Evans is an X-games sorta guy. Cap is a baseball/football/track letterman kinda guy. And the FF movies sucked and that kinda stink don’t wash off.
