The Audacity of Sarah Palin

Wednesday Sarah Palin spoke about the tragedy in Tuscon. Or, for better matter came in on the defense for her rhetoric. Instead of drawing me to her side, she has made me further disgusted at the arrogance, the jealousy, and the plain ignorance from this former Alaska Governor.

I do not expect much from Palin. She is a novelty politician that is showing that she is only appealing to a sliver of those that are on the political scene. This Mama Grizzly did not have to do much. No one is expecting her to change her political beliefs. However, there is a certain time when a person in politics has to eat their words, come clean and move on. Sarah Palin showed today that she has no intention of doing this. She dug herself further into a hole, as far as the "Liberal" media is concerned.

Let's go into this, She claims that after the Tuscon shooting that a "blood libel went against the right." Okay, Sarah you are such a victim. What about the Greenes who lost their precious 9 year old girl? What about Gabrielle Giffords who is undoubtedly never going to have a normal life again. SARAH you are such a victim! I bet you are hurting so bad from all those nasty things Olbermann said about you.

Okay, I am not blaming Palin for what happened. I never did, I went on the Democratic Party's facebook site and defended her. But I did not defend her words. I have always believed that her rhetoric and the rest of the right in 2010 was distasteful. I do believe that there is a dangerous element in the Tea Party. This isn't the picture of the whole movement, but when you put fuel on the fire- something is bound to happen. But, I believe Sarah Palin is not to blame for what happened on Saturday.

But when a district that she "targeted" on her website, happens to have a tragic event. If she had any remote language that can be considered violent, she has a duty as a leader to explain herself. She has a duty to say how we need to tone down our rhetoric and not incite any violence. She doesn't have to apologize for her views, but she needs to at least say, "That was not my intention."

But like I said, what she did was ignorant and hateful. Does she even know what a blood libel is? I doubt it, or she wouldn't have used it. A blood libel is an Anti-Semitic (Hating Jews) conspiracy theory where they claim that the Jews used children's blood in their matza. To even compare her plight to the Jewish plight was a strong hateful stroke. Maybe she knew that Gabrielle Giffords, was Jewish. (I am just saying.) But, I cry ignorance.

Which further proves my point. This is the frontrunner for the Republican Party in 2012. Is anyone a little disturbed? A good leader takes their faults, and learns from them and goes on. Sarah Palin, doesn't do this, she arrogantly believes everything to be true.

I wonder how she's going to get out of this.

My opinion, is this is the thing that's going to hurt Sarah forever. If her remote chances of being President were there, they are gone. If the country elects her, they will make the worst mistake they have ever made.

God Bless us and God Bless America,
