Screw You, Palin

This Republican mouthpiece who advocates teaching creationism in public schools and an "abstinence-only" sex-education program (because that CLEARLY works), had the audacity to denegrate my fine home city. Since when did San Francisco become an insult? We allow everyone to share the same rights to marry. Per capita, San Franciscans purchase more books than residents of any other city. Sorry to be educated, Sarah. Sorry that we all work so hard so that our region can be at the forefront of technological breakthroughs. Meanwhile, you've spent a number of years presiding over Wasilla, a town of about 8,000 that is known as the methamphetamine capitol of Alaska. Good job, hockey mom.

I pray (yes, we do that here, too, though we are allowed to do it in many forms and languages) that you are never elevated beyond your pathetic role as a smarmy, catty candidate. I could go on about your dangerous, backward views, but I'll simply share a lovely little line that I heard today in light of your mocking of Barack Obama's experience (which, yes dear, is much more impressive than yours.)

Jesus was a Community Organizer, and Pontias Pilate was a Governor.
