5 things you need to know about Vanity Fair's Sarah Palin expose In Vanity Fair's new issue, Michael J. Gross takes a hard look at Palin's "surreal new world." Here are some of his must-read revelations posted on September 2, 2010, at 4:03 PM A largely unflattering story in Vanity Fair about Sarah Palin exposed that she has a very hot temper.

Best Opinion: Vanity Fair

In two short transformative years, Sarah Palin has gone from "an engaging, down-to-earth small-town hockey mom" to an isolated, secretive, off-the-rails celebrity road warrior, says Michael Joseph Gross in a largely unflattering exposé in Vanity Fair. And shell-shocked inhabitants of her Alaska hometown, Wasilla, don't know what to think of the makeover — or, at least, are too scared to talk about it. Here are five key revelations from Gross's account of Palin's "surreal new world":

1. Palin's a lousy tipper — when nobody's looking During hundreds of interviews, says Gross, "I heard of Palin giving a generous tip" just once: In front of a large crowd at a chocolate shop in St. Joseph, MI, she slipped the owner a $100 bill "for the staff." Without an audience, she stiffs the bellhops and maids at the luxury hotels she stays at during her grueling speaking schedule, or at best under-tips. At the celebrity-friendly Hyatt in Wichita, KS, "Palin ranks as the all-time worst tipper."

2. Her code name is "North Star" An important concept in Alaska, the North Star shows up on the state flag, in the state song, and even as a symbol for God. Move over, God, says Gross: "Palin is on the way to making North Star a personal brand." It serves as her code name at hotels, dots her speeches, and identifies shell businesses run by her aides. "If she ever does run for president, [North Star] might well serve as her Secret Service code name."

3. She has a wicked temper When Gross first heard tales of Palin's volatile disposition, he says he "couldn’t help but wonder if [they] might be exaggerated." But "corroborating" stories piled up. One family friend recalled a fight between Palin and her husband, Todd: "They took all the canned goods out of the pantry, then proceeded to throw them at each other. By the time they got done, the stainless-steel fridge looked like it had got shot up with a shotgun." Palin gets away with her "horrible temper," the friend said, "because she is a pretty woman."

4. Rumor has it that Palin's Facebook posts are ghostwritten "Palin's most unconventional hire" is "novice media consultant" Rebecca Mansour, co-founder of Conservatives4Palin, a fiercely pro-Palin blog. At the exact time that Palin quietly hired Mansour, Palin's Facebook page and Twitter feed — until then "written mostly in a stiff, third-person form" — became "increasingly provocative and irascible." Her "virtual voice," says Gross, now often "sounds less like Palin herself than someone else's fantasy version of Palin at her most vitriolic."

5. She doesn't hunt While much of the small-town-mayor persona Palin maintained before she achieved national fame was "more or less accurate," some elements were just pure fiction, says Gross. "This whole hunter thing for Sarah?" said a longtime family friend. "That woman has never hunted. The picture of her with the caribou she says she shot? She got out of the RV to pose for a picture." And when Palin made moose chili during an interview with Greta Van Susteren, the friend adds, "Todd was calling everyone he knew the day before — 'Do you got any moose?' Desperate."

The relationship between morality and liberty is a directly proportional one.

She's for expanding a Forever War in favor of Israel and that has contributed mightily to breaking the nation financially while undermining our individual liberties.

I've known some smart blonds. So you saying that is not really fair, but I know what you meant ;)

I"ve always said that if she looked like Helen Thomas (God bless her!) then no one would care what she said about anything.
