Is Sarah Palin crazy??

Some videos you just have to see to believe. On Thursday, Alaska Governor Sarah Palin appeared in Wasilla, Alaska in order to pardon a local turkey in anticipation of Thanksgiving. This proved to be a slightly absurd but an unremarkable event. But what came next was almost unreal. After the pardon Palin proceeded to do an interview with a local TV station while the turkeys were being SLAUGHTERED in the background!! Seeming to ignore the gruesomeness going on over her shoulder, she carries on talking for over three minutes. Watch the video on youtube to see for yourself. Be warned if you have a weak stomach.

Is Barack Obama increasing the hate rate?


Recently, on current.com I came across a news headline reading, Hate Crimes Spike Since Obama Win. I'm wondering if this is a sign that the harsh reality of racism is slowly emerging once again in the United States. A group of high schoolers in Raleigh, North Carolina made some comments on the Internet about the President-elect that caused secret service officials to give them a visit. There have been over 200-hate related incidents since November 4, 2008. Some may ask if folks are just now paying serious attention since the first African-American president was elected just a few weeks ago. Although some may truly be upset and want to seek out for revenge and attempt to "take their country back."
