Over the top much? And the right accuses the left of over reacting.

$1:

But most of the message from Palin, a favorite of Tea Party conservatives but a lightning rod for critics on the left, was overshadowed by criticism of her use of the phrase "blood libel."
The phrase, used for centuries to justify the killing or expulsion of Jews, had been used by other conservative commentators including a Wall Street Journal column since the shooting of Giffords, who is Jewish.

Every time she opens her mouth, I hope she runs for President.

Brilliant choice of words...

Her PR director really needs to do some homework!

Speaking of people who's mental state might render one a danger to themselves and other people I nominate Sara Palin.

One one level she is amusing watching her antics, but on another level she is freightening.

I'm not sure I would trust her with a rifle, let alone the whole US military.

She thinks North Korea is a US ally.

She may be a very fine lady but she is out of her depth when it comes to running a state or a country.

She's right in what she says, except for the use of the those two words - can't imagine why she would have been advised to use them. No matter what she says it will be twisted and demonized and no - I wouldn't vote for her.

Yup, Palin's the real victim in all of this. Has been since Katie Couric got all unfair and left-liberally with her when she asked the then Governor "what newspapers do you read?". Like, how totally mean to Palin was that?

Only one thing with Palin is certain: everyone who watches her antics is literally seeing in front of them a real-time day-by-day evolution of the ultimate narcissist. I don't know what else to say about someone who thinks that any criticism of her is the equivalent to The Protocols Of The Elders Of Zion.

Blood libels are false and sensationalized allegations, so taking that part of the definition, minus the 'human sacrifice' she's right on...

This popped up on my Facebook today:

"Sarah Palin is feeling unjustly blamed for the actions of an extremist. Maybe she can ask Muslims for advice on how to deal with that."

Why is it that so many right wingers seem to think that actions only have consequences when the action is committed by someone else?

I don't. I've had to suffer through recurring bouts of recoil for my actions.

I'll defer to your eminent qualifications on the subject of 'ultimate narcissism'.

Oh, well, I can fire nuclear weapons out of my penis too. Also, I fart depleted uranium dust on small children. I tell them it's fairy dust and all of their wishes will come true.
