It will surprise few people who pay attention to American politics that Sarah Palin is a world-class hypocrite. But her recent foray into the politics of language and disability have proved that her hypocrisy is dyed in the wool, an amazing contradiction of terms: openly disingenuous, profoundly committed to shallowness. She&#8217;s taken one of the [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=kateharding.net&blog=920046&post=4266&subd=kateharding&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

So apparently there is some kind of football game going on this weekend? I know this for two reasons:
1. Feminist bloggers keep posting about Tim Tebow (boo) and Scott Fujita (yay).
2. My friend The Urban Gastronome has been posting mouthwatering &#8220;game day&#8221; recipes. MMMMMM CUPCAKES

It&#8217;s nothing most of our readers haven&#8217;t seen before, but Newsweek has a refresher course on the &#8220;biggest airbrushing scandals&#8221; of the 2000s.
