Sarah Palin is bitching to the media again, about....you guessed it....the media.

Okay I have resisted making this accusation in the past, but I am becoming convinced that Governor Sarah Palin may be insane.

No I am not talking about her suffering from narcissistic personality disorder, we ALL accept the veracity of that claim. I mean that she has an actual debilitating psychosis.

She is complaining about a problem of her own creation, and is seemingly unaware of it. She is like a person who purposefully strikes herself in the forehead and then complains about her constant headaches. It is just nucking futs.

Of course it may be that there is some method to her apparent madness.

"I think she's positioning herself. She's attacking the media as a way to generate support among a base she hopes will support her," said Leonard Steinhorn, a professor of communications at American University in Washington and an expert on the presidency.

"I think she's exploiting and cultivating the anti-intellectual and anti-elitist side of the Republican party," Steinhorn said. "She's trying to salvage her reputation, so she attacks the messenger."

Perhaps that is true, but personally I don't give her that much credit for intelligence.

I think she is simply addicted to being the center of media attention and cannot stand it when she is not being interviewed or talked about.

For instance in a recent example Sarah Palin was attending her daughter's basketball game at the Wasilla Sports Center. When a freelance reporter showed up and asked her if she was willing to give an interview she only hesitated for a moment before agreeing. Essentially she was drawn to the camera like a moth to a flame.

I firmly believe that ANYBODY could get a Sarah Palin interview. The next time you see her just hold up your cell phone, press record, and ask her some questions. I bet you a dollar she will respond.

If you have any doubts about my conclusions then this should help convince you:

"It's all about the family," she said. "I'm wired in a way that I can take the criticism. I can take the shots. But any mother would want to protect their children from lies and scandalous reporting."

Let me remind you that it was Sarah who trotted her kids out on stage during the McCain campaign. It was Sarah who announced to the world that daughter Bristol was pregnant to end the speculation that she was not Trig's birth mother. It was Sarah who called People magazine out of the blue to complain that Bristol and Levi were not high school dropouts (which they are), and that interview resulted in Levi losing his job as an apprentice carpenter on the North Slope.

If Palin had REALLY wanted the press to stop accusing her of not being Trig's mom she would have produced a birth certificate and perhaps a picture of her holding her newborn while in a hospital bed. (Every proud mother has one of those.) But instead she focused the bloggers and media's attention on the pregnancy of daughter Bristol Palin.

Which of course brings up the next unresolved question about Palin and her family.

Supposedly Bristol gave birth to a little boy named Tripp Easton Mitchell Johnston, but nobody I have talked to (and trust me I have talked to EVERYBODY!) has seen this child! And so far, as of today January 21st, there is not ONE photograph of this mystery baby.

So let me call bullshit on Sarah Palin's whining about unfair coverage of her family.

If she really wanted it to stop she could have made it stop any damn time she wanted.

What she really wants is requests for interviews, newspaper articles written about her, and blog posts like this one.

If Sarah Palin would like the opportunity to confront the one person who is most responsible for all of her negative coverage, then I suggest she walk into one of the bathroom of her Wasilla home and look in the mirror.

There Governor, that is the culprit!
