    Funny

    What's next, an article lauding George Bush as steadfast and resolute?

    Palin acted like a frantic get-away driver throwing her kids out of the car hoping that would slow down her pursuers. Every scandal, every criticism, every political opportunity and another Palin kid got jettisoned and left to fend for themselves.

    Frankly I'd answer "hell yes" as well if Sarah was my mom and offered to stop cynically exploiting me.
