In a hilarious demonstration of self-delusion, Palin said&#8230;<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;Name one &#8212; name one prominent Republican who even comes close to what like the Alan Graysons, the Harry Reids, the Joe Bidens come up with and spew to the American public.

OK: <strong>&#8220;Sarah Palin.&#8221;<\/strong> The woman who accused Barack Obama of <em>&#8220;palling around with terrorists.&#8221;<\/em> And earlier this year she said <em>&#8220;Nancy Pelosi is a dingbat,&#8221;<\/em> and that President Obama is <em>&#8220;a tool.&#8221;<\/em> And she repeatedly calls anyone with whom she has an ideological disagreement a socialist. Sarah Palin is about the most vituperative, mean-spirited, mud-slinger in America today. And she can&#8217;t think of a single name of a prominent Republican who fits that description. Well, in her defense, she did specify a <em>&#8220;prominent Republican.&#8221;<\/em> And she&#8217;s the same person who couldn&#8217;t think a single newspaper or magazine she had read.<\/p>\n<p>In case Palin is interested in any other names, she might want to look into Allen West, who was her top choice for Romney&#8217;s running mate. West has called <a href=\"http:\/\/www.newscorpse.com\/ncWP\/?p=6843\" target=\"_blank\">half the Democrats in congress communists<\/a> and accused them of being aligned with Nazi propagandist Joseph Goebbels. And I would also refer Palin to Michele Bachmann, Joe Walsh, Virginia Fox, Louis Gohmert, and Herman Cain. Then there are media figures like Rush Limbaugh who called a college student a slut and a prostitute, and Glenn Beck who called the President a racist.<\/p>\n<p>There are way too many instances of Republicans descending into the most vile disparagement and hate-speech to list them all. Yet Palin can&#8217;t come up with a single name. And what makes that especially disturbing is that her own name would be at the top of the list. In this same segment with Van Susteren, Palin called Obama a socialist and defended <em>&#8220;these powerful and truthful and accurate words to describe what President Obama is running on and what he is doing to America.&#8221;<\/em> And how much more insulting can you get than to call someone a pal of terrorists?<\/p>\n<p>Seriously, why does anyone pay any attention to this idiot?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Washed up GOP VP loser, half-term governor, and failed TV reality show star, Sarah Palin, appeared on Fox News last night with her friend Greta Van Susteren.
