"Sarah Palin: 'I Owe America A Global Apology'"

Sarah Palin: 'I Owe America A Global Apology'

by Paige Lavender at the Huffington Post

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2014/09/12/sarah-palin-apology_n_5810808.html?utm_hp_ref=politics

"SNIP.......................


"As I watched the speech last night, Sean, the thought going through my mind is, 'I owe America a global apology. Because John McCain, through all of this, John McCain should be our president,'" Palin said.





Palin went on to compare the Islamic State to Hitler and questioned how seriously Obama is taking the group.

"So when Barack Obama, like the rest of us, hear these bad guys, these terrorists, promising that they will raise the flag of Allah over our White House, for the life of me I don't know why he does not take this serious, the threat. Because yes, it's more than a vision," Palin said. "They're telling-- just like Hitler did all those years ago, when a war could've been avoided, because Hitler, too, did not hide his intentions. Well ISIS, these guys aren't hiding their intentions either."

Watch Palin on Hannity above.

looking at the "because" phrase, it appears you can gather that from it. Which makes it the first thing she's said that makes sense in a long time, too.

She's in some different dimension, that's for sure.

the little graphic game of Palin that someone put up online. I had it saved on my old computer. It had Palin's "oval office", and clicking on parts of the picture made stuff happen (like, clicking on the window and a dinosaur strolled by). Anyone else remember that?

On Election night 2008 when Obama had won, the office went dark, all that Palin crap was swept out, and there was a bottle of champagne chilling in an ice bucket, along with audio of a speech the President made on the campaign trail.

"As I said before, if we are dangerously uncertain of the outcome and are led into war by a Commander-in-chief who can’t recognize that this conflict is pitting Islamic extremists against an authoritarian regime with both sides shouting 'Allah Akbar' at each other, then let Allah sort it out," Palin continued.

With the exception of the "can't recognize" part, this is the one and only time I've ever agreed with Palin.


...and now, back to the 20 family-member brawl.
