Ah, the madness continues. Sarah Palin has hit the news again offering her support to Dr Laura, the US radio show host who resigned recently following her use of racist remarks to a caller on her show, reports the Huffington Post.
Sarah Palin sent two messages about Dr. Laura on Twitter yesterday:
Dr.Laura:don't retreat...reload! (Steps aside bc her 1st Amend.rights ceased 2exist thx 2activists trying 2silence"isn't American,not fair")
Dr.Laura=even more powerful & effective w/out the shackles, so watch out Constitutional obstructionists. And b thankful 4 her voice,America!
What disturbs me more, the use of text speak (Twitter is an art form, it requires less language, not a new one) or the general insanity of extreme Republican politics? No, it's too difficult - I'll get back to you on that.
You can find the background to this story, as well as two hilarious related features outlining all the offensive, inappropriate and downright idiotic things both Sarah Palin and Dr Laura have said over the years, both of which I would thoroughly recommend and which you'll find at the bottom of the page.
And I thought the Daily Mail winds me up. If I was living in the States, these two alone would have me apoplectic in seconds.
