It's very important when you consider even national security issues with Russia as Putin rears his head and comes into the air space of the United States of America, where–where do they go? - Sarah Palin
This diagram is from an article by Kitty Burns Florey, Diagramming Sarah - Can Palin's Sentences Stand Up to a Grammarian?, at Slate.com.
I've always felt an attraction for (this old-styled) sentence diagramming, and own a copy of Florey's Sister Bernadette's Barking Dog: The Quirky History and Lost Art of Diagramming Sentences. (I also have a poster-sized diagram of a 958 word sentence from Marcel Proust's Cities of the Plain!)

Diagramming - wow! An idea from my past that I had totally forgotten.
Anything that makes PALIN seem less air-headed is a good thing IMHO.
I think that some sort of test of life experience should be added to the requirements for being a candidate for positions like PotUSA or VPotUSA:nothing too difficult, but PALIN is below the needed level.
She IS cute though...
Almost as cute as Tina Fey.
