I see that the recent episode of “Sarah Palin’s Alaska” stirred up a bit of controversy, along the lines of what I wondered about last week (if not exactly what I was asking about).  My colleague here at The Moderate Voice, Joe Windish, has rounded up some of the commentary.

On a more productive and educational bent, though, is the episode of “Mythbusters” tonight, which features an appearance by President Obama.

The contrast presented between the television appearances by Governor Palin and President Obama is remarkable and interesting and may accidentally present a metaphor to be considered.
