For me, two things are unforgivable regarding Sarah Palin: book banning and overturning Roe v. Wade. Her lack of experience and her history of stretching truths, along with an apparent abuse of power are just icing on that cake.<BR/><BR/>I am often speechless as I watch this drama play out.Claire B.https://www.blogger.com/profile/00672272108651345776noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7324751670638732798.post-38922659596057635992008-09-18T00:43:00.000-05:002008-09-18T00:43:00.000-05:00She is a NIGHTMARE.

And perhaps the New Yorker humor is lost on me again (like when they put that awful Obama in the white house caricature on the cover) but that article by George Saunders just making fun of her misses the point entirely. This isn't about making fun.
