A Whiter Shade of Palin

In honor of Obama's request to supporters and staff yesterday to stop talking about the infernal dingbat, this will be my last Palin-focused post for a bit, but just in case some of you have been living in a cave for the last week or so I had to highlight a couple of the truly disturbing tidbits that have come to light about Ms. Alaska.

• As mayor of Wasilla, she made possible rape victims pay for their own rape kit exams at the hospital.
• She spent as much as $35,000 (admittedly of her own money—but nonetheless, really?) on a tanning bed for the governor's mansion.
• First she was going to testify in regards to whether or not she had her former brother in law fired, and now she might not. Go figure.
• Apparently Newsweek swiped its cover title "Palin-tol-ogy" last week from a blogger (teehee) but it is a good read on all things Palin should you be able to stomach it.
• Obama's former minister, Reverend Wright, ain't got nothing on Palin's Pentecostal preacher. Apparently Palin didn't speak in tongues, but maybe this guy should have been doing it more instead of questioning whether people who voted for Kerry in 04 would get into heaven and hoping that people who spoke out against Bush would go to hell. Lovely, just what I look for in a Sunday morning sermon!
• Finally, Ms. Palin may claim to not be a member of the "good 'ole boys" club, but she does seem to be fond of rewarding friends and family as detailed in this NY Times piece. 

Wanna show that just because she has a uterus Sarah Palin doesn't stand for your beliefs as a woman? Email womensaynopalin@gmail.com.  Editors of the art magazine Modern Painters, Lyra Kilston and Quinn Latimer, are posting the letters to a blog site Womenagainstsarahpalin.blogspot.com. 

I think that about does it.
