In the interest of full disclosure, I didn't watch the videos above. I know her shtick and it's not likely to change until she loses the Republican primary in 2012. If she's able to create a more perminant media career for herself, I fully expect she will continue the aww shucks brand of anti-American, anti-progress, anti-intellectual hogwash we've seen since John McCain foolsihly elevated her to the national stage in 2008.
What are you predictions for 2010 and 2012?
The Republicans will take back a few seats, but not as many as expected.
What are your thoughts about the desire to return to "Reaganomics" in the wake of "Obamanomics" in a post-recession (i.e. economic recovery) America?
Reaganomics isn't an economic theory, but a corporate conspiracy put in place to reduce government regulations and taxes and to increase corporate welfare in order to bleed the state dry and create an maintain an oligarchy, a corporatocracy. If it succedes, we will have many more economic bubbles and collapses and each time less and less money will rest with the many and more and more money will rest with the few. It's a long-term strategy.
What are your thoughts on the support for American exceptionalism in 2010 and beyond?
America is just some land with a common government. Nationalism is a plague, feeing on people's ignorance and fear and standing at the doorway to true, species-wide progress not allowing anyone through. It's the tool of the corrupt and the opiate of the ignorant, much like any ideology which empowers its believer to think he or she is better than anyone else.
