5 Absurd Right-Wing Moments this Week: Sarah Palin Hawks Christmas Book in a Negligee

http://www.alternet.org/tea-party-and-right/5-absurd-right-wing-moments-week-sarah-palin-hawks-christmas-book-negligee



1. Sarah Palin joyously hawks her Christmas book for the good of all mankind.

If you are not a regular viewer of the Sarah Palin YouTube channel, you might have missed Palin’s nearly four-minute infomercial for her book about recapturing the true heart of Christmas. It’s called Good Tidings and Great Joy: Protecting the Heart of Christmas and it’s a must-have.


2. Bill O’Reilly interrupts his vacation to be a complete jerk.

Bill O’Reilly offered his reliably incisive insight into New York politics in the wake of the murder of two police officers in Brooklyn. Just kidding, he was a total douche.

3. Rush Limbaugh is apoplectic at the thought of a black James Bond.

With all the problems in the world, the one that really had Rush Limbaugh worked up into a lather this week was a casting decision he disagrees with. Not even a decision, actually, a casting trial balloon. It turns out that Sony honcho Amy Pascal floated the idea of a black actor being the next James Bond in one of her hacked emails.


4. Bernard Kerik: Protesters against police violence are more dangerous than all our other enemies.

For some reason, Time.com saw fit to run an absurdly overblown piece of right-wing propaganda this week by Rudy Giuliani’s former police commissioner, Bernard Kerik. In it, ex-con Kerik breathlessly declares that there is a war going on right here in the homeland, a war on law and order and a war on cops. This war is being waged by an enemy more dangerous than all of our other enemies, including ISIS, Al-Qaeda, the Taliban, combined. That enemy is us.

I've noticed such a change since '08. There's just an ever-present hardness behind her eyes. Her smile isn't real. Do you see it?

Little known fact, when you cook with berries in Alaska, you have to get to them before the bears do.
