Palin a Racist?!
Behold, an example of Palinsanity.
1) The Pacific Northwest is full of racists.
2) Alaska is not much different.
3) No evidence Palin is a racist.
4) We need to ask questions and double check that's she not.
... in the Philadelphia Inquirer, no less.
Oh, btw... the author:

Yikes! "Montana Militia, the Posse Comitatus and the Sagebrush Rebels, and individuals such as Terry Nichols and Ted Kaczynski have made us wonder why so many 'angry white men' populated our rural regions." Scary stuff!

Anyone catch the Peggy Noonan piece Friday?

This is bigotry, plain and simple: judging an individual based on stereotypes and superficial factors - including skin color. "She's a white Republican and from the Pacific northwest, therefore we can assume she's a racist until proven innocent."
