Palin non sequitur

So, let me get this straight. Sarah Palin and the Republican Party trotted out Bristol, Sarah's unwed pregnant teenager, all over the 2008 campaign trail, using her as a political prop as a symbol of superior family values. All the old guard at the party that used to rail against teen pregnancies instantly switched their morals to show support.

Now David Letterman makes a joke about it, and Palin and the Republicans are all over him, calling him sick and perverted. They're twisting his joke (any joke can be interpreted as funny or not) to insist that he meant something completely different, and repeating their "alternative" interpretation of Letterman's joke to any talk show that will put her on.

How desperate is Palin for publicity that she has to make up this kind of garbage and slander someone because she didn't like a joke? How desperate is the Republican Party for any kind of leadership that they're looking to someone like Palin, and sad tactics like that?

The GOPpers are getting more pathetic every day.
