Of course Sarah Palin defends Dr. Laura Schlessinger’s racist comments . . . Dr. Laura is “one of her kind” (was that racist!? Oh you’re so sensitive! lol) . . . Sarah Palin is defending Dr. Laura’s RIGHT to free speech – she’s defending a constitutional RIGHT! WOW! Isn’t that what being American is about!? You might not like what Dr. Laura had to say, and perhaps it was offensive to many (oh, it was!), but like Palin points out – just because you don’t like what a person has to say doesn’t mean he/she doesn’t have the right to say it.
Here’s the clip in case you haven’t heard:
But ahhh . . . here’s something else – if you work for a private radio company and you say racist things on the air and your boss doesn’t want to renew your contract when it’s up (the article says that Dr. Laura chose not to continue once her contract is up, but for argument’s sake I’ll continue my take on the situation) because you’ve been a “bad employee” then is it not that boss’s RIGHT to do so? He/she does not have to resign a Dr. Laura or a Don Imus if they don’t want to. It’s their RIGHT!
Oh how could I NOT put this on my blog!? And how did I allow myself to miss it when it originally aired? I’m so mad at myself . . . I feel . . . I feel . . . like such a retard!
Ahh, but of course I’m using satire. Much like Rush Limbaugh uses (Really, Sarah?? Really?).
Only this woman, pictured at left, has bought Sarah Palin’s book! She apparently needed to hug something.
Wait a second? More people bought her book!? Tons of people went to her book signings!? Sarah Palin has a book!? I want a book.
Was my picture misleading!? Oh I’m sorry. It must be that damn liberal media. They made me do it!
Ah, but I kid – I joke – I fool around – and I can do that because I’m just a silly blogger who pays for a tiny slice of the Interweb (that’s right, the Interweb) – but for a real life “News” channel to “accidentally” show the wrong clip (a misleading one, by the way, that puts the topic on hand in a brighter light) for the 2nd time in less than 2 weeks, is unacceptable – especially when it’s a network with such “high values.” If these were truly accidents, how come the clips never make the story look worse? For example, in this latest mishap, how come they didn’t have a clip of Sarah Palin sitting alone in her Governer’s office, or even a clip of the infamous Katie Couric interview? Better yet, if they are speaking about a book signing, for Gods sake why don’t they just show actual footage of the book signing? Keep it simple, and stop trying to mislead – you already have your viewers hooked – what’s the point!?
