Sarah Palin crawled out from under a barstool this week and went on Newsmax to try to appear relevant. Responding to a short passage in Obama’s new book, she said:
“It’s kind of pleasurable to know that I’ve been living rent-free in his head for 12 years. The movement that he still cannot accept nor understand . . . that movement was all about giving the voiceless a voice, empowering people who are fed up, want accountability in their government, want a smaller, smarter government, things that he just hasn’t been able to grasp.”
Yeah, I don’t think he’s spent too much time thinking about her in the last 12 years.
Here is what he said. And boy is he right:
“Through Palin, it seemed as if the dark spirits that had long been lurking on the edges of the modern Republican Party — xenophobia, anti intellectualism, paranoid conspiracy theories, an antipathy toward Black and brown folks — were finding their way to center stage. She had no idea what the hell she was talking about.”
It’s Thanksgiving time so I think it’s a good day to show this which totally proves Obama’s point.
