Palin outraged at photo found in neighbor’s garbage.
From CNBN:
Sarah Palin’s announced a press conference this afternoon to discuss a disturbing discovery she made last night while rummaging through a neighbor’s garbage. To her dismay, she found an autographed photo from her early TV anchor days with a sloppily markered Adolf Hitler mustache.
“This is an outrage to all women, especially those who are family oriented. The intention of this photo is clear: My neighbor is attacking my oldest son, Track, for simply being a formidable young man. While I am aware that the photo is a likeness of me, and was deep inside my neighbor’s garbage bin flanked by two half-eaten burritos, I am also aware that she is a democrat and has ties to the Wasilla P.T.A.
We will take the appropriate actions to make sure this woman cannot do this kind of thing to American’s ever again - and to those democrats who obviously hate all my children, I will hold another press conference tomorrow so they can give voice to their own objections.”
Okay. Maybe the first quote on this posting is somewhat fabricated. Well, maybe completely fabricated. But it doesn’t seem to far from reality, does it? Here’s reality:
From CNN:
Who even KNOWS what this photo means. I sure as fuck don't. Nonetheless, it's called freedom of expression.
Palin’s latest response comes after liberal Alaskan Blogger Linda Kellen Biegel doctored a photograph of the former Republican vice presidential candidate with her 1-year-old son Trig, who suffers from Down Syndrome.
Biegel, who blogs in support of the Alaska Democratic Party under the name “Celtic Diva,” superimposed a picture of conservative Alaskan radio host Eddie Burke over Trig’s face in an apparent effort to show how close the radio host is with the Alaskan governor.
“Recently we learned of a malicious desecration of a photo of the Governor and baby Trig that has become an iconic representation of a mother’s love for a special needs child,” Palin spokeswoman Meghan Stapelton said in a statement provided to CNN. “The mere idea of someone doctoring the photo of a special needs baby is appalling.”
Please. Give me one…little…break. The photo in question had NOTHING to do with insulting a special needs child. In fact, any FOOL can see the blog photo she’s referring to is a metaphor that is simply using her son’s image comment on a particular radio host. Most abstract-thinking adults can parse this little bit of visual commentary. Anyone but the far right wing and the Palin family. Will someone please shut this woman up?
Sarah Palin will do ANYTHING to remain in the spotlight. She is a vindictive high-schooler who exploits her children any chance she gets. I truly hope she is the Presidential front-runner in 2012.
