Fox News reports that ex-VP hopeful Sarah Palin’s daughter and the man who got her pregnant are “working their butts off”, contrary to reports that they were high school dropouts and drug fiends (never mind those pesky police reports and hard, tangible evidence). I’m pretty sure I’d be a little irritated if either of my parents went to the media discussing my ‘butt’ or saying anything like that in the Minnesota accent that we all love so much. “Gosh, I tell you what, he’s just working his little tush off, oh yeah, maverick Russia.”
It appears that class and propriety are hopelessly lost on people like her. “Working very hard” is a perfectly good phrase. But no, it’s not folksy enough. Ugh.
