New York’s Paladino Declares War on Another Minority
New York’s GOP gubernatorial candidate, Carl Paladino, told a gathering in Central Park on Sunday that children can’t be allowed to think that red-haired people are normal. He lambasted his opponent for Governor, Andrew Cuomo, for having redheads on his staff and accused him of being un-American and “red-friendly.”

Saying she’s pleased to “find a man with some backbone,” Sara Palin invited Paladino to a meeting this week, where she may offer him the vice presidential slot on her upcoming run for U.S. president. Ms. Palin and Mikey Huckabee, her former choice, recently had a falling-out when Sarah belittled hush puppies, a delicate cuisine item in Huckabee’s home state, Arkansas.

“Paladino is expressing views that are dear to the hearts of all Americans — the freedom to belittle, reject and even hate those who look and act differently,” said Mike Caputo, Paladino’s campaign manager. “We have to remember that he’s a capitalist and a Catholic, and we should not expect Christian behavior from him.”

Before his meeting at the synagogue, Paladino told newsmen not to “swallow the lies my campaign tries to spread about how I’ve become all warm and fuzzy.” “I’m the same irascible, quick-to-anger, crotchety, petulant prick I’ve always been,” Paladino assured the all male audience. “I’m a builder, I’m rich and I’m used to pushing people around and getting my way. That’s why the Tea Party picked me over those redhead-loving freaks, the Democrats. They’ll be sorry they were ever born!”
