I don't normally condone "disappearing" people, but if the GOP ever wants anyone to take them seriously again, this woman needs to be disappeared.
She nominated a dude for State Attorney General of Alaska who was on record as saying, "If a guy can't rape his wife...who's he gonna rape?" Oh, he also voiced support for a KKK statue.
She was also overruled by her own Republican-led legislature who took all $400 million in stimulus funds. She was adamantly against taking any of the money.
I suppose I'm validating her by writing about this, but I don't care. I suppose as a progressive voter I should be ecstatic that the seemingly backward Republican Party thinks she is the future of the party. But as a progressive person who cares more about the actual progression of the human race in total and this country specifically, anyone in any position to change the course of progression for the worse is bad news, even if they make a joke out of themselves and their respective political parties. People out there still like Palin, for reasons beyond my comprehension.
Then again, people in this country elected a Bush family member three times. To say I'm surprised that Palin still draws a crowd would be a lie. Even idiots and degenerates have fans (see: American Pop Culture).
