    Sarah's pallin' around with a real America hater

    Sarah Palin doesn't mention that she's actually married to a man who doesn't "see America as you and I see America," who "see[s] America as imperfect enough to pal around" with extremists who want to sever their ties with the country she professes such love for.

    Until his wife hit the state political circuit, Todd Palin was a member of a secessionist party whose founder despised the American flag and who famously bloviated: "The fires of hell are frozen glaciers compared to my hatred for the American government."

    Oh, and did she mention that as Governor she taped a warm, warm welcome to this group at their annual convention?

    Glass houses and all that, Sarah.
