TPM is obsessed with the Palins ... oh, and we really need a 'sarcasm font'

Twitchy reported earlier on some some theories why the left wing media is still fixated on Sarah Palin and her family. Here’s the real, repugnant reason Dems and media still go after Sarah Palin; It’s enraging

Whatever the reason, Talking Points Memo sure seems to have an obsession with the former vice presidential candidate.

@JohnEkdahl @RobProvince Josh Marshall seems weirdly obsessed with Palins.

Of course the strong feelings about Sarah Palin go both ways. A lot of her supporters are on hair trigger alert for any perceived insult. Some of them aren’t very adept at identifying sarcasm either which often causes them to start completely unnecessary arguments.

My mentions have been full of angry Palinistas since tweeting this, which is pretty obviously mocking TPM’s coverage https://t.co/oh1sUuYZgT

Irrational obsession vs irrational protectiveness.

Oh yeah, this was supposed to be about Talking Points Memo’s obsession.

That is a pretty pathetic article.

@JohnEkdahl they don't have the balls to admit it; @JoshtTPM just say it already – Palin deserved to get punched because #rethuglican

The bottom line: the left is clearly trying to send a message with all their Palin hate but knee-jerk outrage isn’t going to help anyone combat it.
