Sarah Palin's 'Favorite' Tweet Is About Our 'Taliban Muslim Illegally Elected President'
Sarah Palin's 'Favorite' Tweet Is About Our 'Taliban Muslim Illegally Elected President'



Sarah Palin recently "favorited" an Ann Coulter tweet that linked to a picture of a sign about "The blood of Jesus against Obama," our "Taliban Muslim illegally elected President USA: Hussein." This might be awkward if she runs for president!

For those unfamiliar with Twitter (do you exist?), to "favorite" a tweet is to hover your mouse over said tweet, then click a little star that says "favorite" next to it. That is what @SarahPalinUSA did to the below tweet from @AnnCoulter.



The link goes to this Twitter user's picture of a sign outside the church of Pastor James David Manning, who once called Barack Obama a "pimp" and "long-legged mack daddy" in a sermon. <@SarahPalin via Palingates>

3. i think I joined twitter but I don't remember my penname.
but what I would do is ask her how come her two left feet and legs daughter hasn't been kicked off DWTS. Did she threaten the site. And I would twitter Coulter and ask where the operation was performed. Now I know old Coulter would know exactly what I mean.

4. Well, that "church" certainly used all the right buzzwords.
Their fellowship must be made up of cretins of the type that would make Freepers look smart.

5. Prolly didn't have room for "Socialist" on the sign
They need a bigger sign - plus it's "muslin" not "muslim, ya morans.

Exclusive: Palin Emails ABC News to Push Back on 'Taliban Muslim' Twitter Controversy
November 04, 2010 8:06 PM

Former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin uses Facebook and Twitter to make political statements and communicate with her followers.

Today reporters noted that she had apparently used Twitter to list as a “favorite” of hers a tweet from conservative commentator Ann Coulter showing a photo of a sign labeling President Barack Obama a “Taliban Muslim.”

The image was a church called “The Blood of Jesus ATLAH World Missionary Church” with a sign reading “The blood of Jesus against Obama history made 4 Nov 2008 a Taliban Muslim illegally elected president USA: Hussein”

“MY NEW CHURCH!” Coulter’s tweet declares.

Asked for comment, Palin wrote to ABC News:

“Jake, I've never purposefully ‘favorited’ any Tweet. I had to go back to my BlackBerry to even see if such a function was possible. I was traveling to Alaska that day...it was an obvious accidental ‘favoriting,’ but no one can mistake that Ann Coulter was obviously being tongue in cheek with that Tweet. Shall I correct this with whichever wonderful media outlet ran with this (an obviously bored reporter...since there must be nothing going on in the world today, like, um, ramifications of a shake up of power in the U.S. House of Representatives?).”
