As she has since she stepped onto the national stage six years ago, Palin is the ultimate avatar of base Republican culture since she views herself as an eternal victim, with all the grievance and resentment that entails.
So now, liberals, the media, Democrats, apparently anyone who thinks Palin is a buffoon of almost world historic proportions (which gets you to something like 80% of the country) are all abominable hypocrites for 'laughing' at what is now fairly preposterously portrayed as a violent assault against a woman. If you listen to the police interviews, which occurred just as the brawl had barely ended, all the witnesses beside Bristol said she attacked the homeowner. Indeed, even Bristol's younger sister Willow backed up the these other witnesses' account. She just said Bristol missed with her punches.

Ultimate avatar indeed. This is exactly why conservatives blow a bowel about the so-called victim culture. They are the ultimate self-loathers.

The irony is that conservatives learned the exalted status of victimhood from progressives/liberals.
Is it silly? Absolutely, just as silly as the eternal quest to right the wrongs of every victim class the Social Justice Warriors could discover (or invent).
You know where I hear more about Sarah Palin, Rush and FoxNews - from progressives/liberals not from conservatives. I would say "think about that" but you won't, not even if I put a gun to your head and demanded it.
