Esquire has yet another exclusive mini-interview from Gov. Sarah Palin … and it’s just as banal, unintelligent and silly as everything else she’s done.

That many Republicans still consider her the future of their party blows my mind. At least in Utah, everyone except Sen. Uquhart is still in love with Romney. I guess.

A couple of quotes:

Palin on Russia and Credible News Sources
“You have to let it go. Even hard news sources, credible news sources — the comment about, you can see Russia from Alaska. You can! You can see Russia from Alaska. Something like that — a factual statement that was taken out of context and mocked — what you have to do is let that go.”

Palin on Bloggers and the World of Journalism
“Bored, anonymous, pathetic bloggers who lie annoy me….I’ll tell you, yesterday the Anchorage Daily News, they called again to ask — double-, triple-, quadruple-check — who is Trig’s real mom. And I said, Come on, are you kidding me? We’re gonna answer this? Do you not believe me or my doctor? And they said, No, it’s been quite cryptic the way that my son’s birth has been discussed. And I thought, Okay, more indication of continued problems in the world of journalism.”

Hey now! I’m not anonymous, and I never jumped on that silly “baby scandal” bandwagon, either. In a target rich environment, there’s no need to wear a tin foil hat, if you know what I mean.

I’ve said it before: When Katie Couric bests you in a battle of wits, you’ve got bigger problems than the myth of the liberal media.

Read the REST HERE, if you can stomach it.
