Sarah Palin is harmless enough if she were just your narrow minded cousin who kept her stupidity confined to the hillbilly town where she resides. Her puritanical views spewed out on an international stage are even more embarrassing than George Bush's 8 years of blabbering if that's even possible. I am a firm supporter of women and their rightful place in our government but she really is a sad exception to that rule. She would better serve our country lying quietly in front of an abortion clinic somewhere in Anchorage.
