Sarah Palin 'Target WikiLeaks Like Taliban'

Posted by CmdrTaco on Wednesday December 1, 2010 @05:45AM from the name-calling dept.

DMandPenfold writes "Sarah Palin, who is widely tipped as a possible Republican candidate for president in 2012, has said WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange should be hunted down in the way armed forces are targeting the Taliban and Al-Qaeda." So that means we should spend billions of dollars and not catch him? Good plan.

why the hell does the media pay so much attention to her?

Because she is even more hilarious than when Tina Fey makes fun of her.

Sarah Palin's commentary on anything deeper than an Alaskan salmon stream is wasted air. She is not a political mind worthy of quoting. I'd be more interested in Britney Spears commentary on the escalating North Korea situation since we might at least get some good cleavage pics.

This discussion is about Sarah Palin. I think you meant to say "fence post."

I hereby propose, that just like in all her public speaking events, any and all quotes from Sarah Palin must be appended with a winking smiley
;)
Correction: a winkin' smiley

It's entertainment not politics.
There's a difference?
Yeah. Entertainment is funny.

Speaking as a mostly-leftist American, I would like nothing better than seeing Palin win the Republican nomination.

You don't need to hunt fame whores. Just set up a camera and they'll come to you.

Oh don't worry. Even if she won the Presidency, she'd just get frustrated and quit after two years.

>> And while we're on that topic, why is always considered a bad thing
Correction: Always is considered a bad thing only sometimes, but never is considered a bad thing always. On the other hand, sometimes is never considered a good thing, so it's always considered a bad thing.
Oh wait, I guess you were right.
