Okay first of all I know I should just try my best to ignore Sarah Palin and her annoying behavior. Second of all I know this story is not from the most objective source.

I do wish I could find some independent verification on this, the liberal media has failed me again. According to the article Palin confronted a woman who had a sign up that read "WORST GOVERNOR EVER". The video shows Palin acting like the shrill wanker that she is ("Oh you WANTED me to be your governor!" she gushes sarcastically). I guess security and/or Todd tried to stop this person from filming the exchange.

Then, according to the article, once the camera was turned off someone from Palin's entourage TORE DOWN THE SIGN. So much for supporting freedom of speech. If this is true then it sums up my problem with Palin and her ilk. They have no tolerance for dissenting opinion and carry an aura of entitlement that makes me nauseous.

I would love to see this story get picked up by the liberal mainstream media but I won't bet money on it happening. I just want to know, did her entourage tear down the sign? Was Palin present when it happened, and did she see it? Does she support this action?

I particularly like the "Grizzly Mommas" thing.

The video is right there at the source you cited.

Boy, the Right Wing sure knows how to pick its heroes, don't it? And frankly victimhood complexes + entitlement complexes + elaborate safety and security not granted to others = contemporary Right Wingers in a nice arithmetical summation.

Every time Sarah Palin receives publicity, God punches a baby.

It's all part of the Republican Party's plan to sustain itself over time.

So, I read the transcript, doesn't look problematic. Looks like an exchange between a politico and a citizen who don't really see eye to eye. I see this all the time.

Now, as for the crew allegedly tearing down the banner, you might not be aware of how poor Moore is as a source here. Her boner for all things Palin is rather epic and pathetic on its own, which is probably why the media isn't picking this up - there's really no story here, and Shannyn Moore is likely just making it up as she goes along, as she has been for years.

Asking the mainstream media to treat Palin fairly has been shown to be an impossibly tall order.

You need no more evidence of this trend than the fact her Facebook page is carefully edited by her staff so that anything that doesn't go along with her "everyone loves me I'm so popular" image is deleted from view as soon as it posts.

I still wanna see her original Wikipedia page from before it was whitewashed.

It's not there in the previous versions? I thought Wiki kept all the previous edits.

I just got an idea of how to be really amused when high.

Check out the Conservapedia page on Palin. That should be a riot.

Palin on the military

I think it's interesting that she advocates military adventurism with constitutional protection as its rationale. She deceives others because she deceives herself.

I'd sooner believe Casey Sheehan's mom or Orly Taitz than Ms. Moore.

There's a reason why this hasn't been picked up by any media.

When you lack a credible source you have no story.

I think this is nothing but speculation and hogwash. If there was a crowd there, SOMEONE would have gotten video of someone taking down that banner. HuffPo will write ANYTHING to paint Sarah Palin in a bad light.

I don't support her being President, but at least my opinion's based on her platform and lack of leadership skills, not her family or gossip about her.

Okay, so it's a case of he said, she said. Super. I love those.

I don't see Palin as a leader, but I really don't think she'd do something like that and risk it at a time like this. The woman with the sign (and I assuming her friend who was recording everything) already have a vendetta against Palin. Something like this would be icing on their little cake. And like I said before, HuffPo is always trying to find ways to sink Palin.

"The NATO charter clearly says that any attack on a NATO member shall be treated, by all members, as an attack against all. So that means that, if we attack Greenland, we'll be obligated to go to war against ... ourselves! Gee, that's scary. You really don't want to go to war with the United States. They're insane!"
