Palin's Patriotism...


So here's the problem.....sending our troops to Iraq or wherever is "Patriotic" but paying the taxes to fund those expeditions - "not Patriotic".

Well, that's the logic from our buddy Sarah Palin at least....

and I quote (from the VP debate) .....

“You said recently that higher taxes or asking for higher taxes or paying higher taxes is patriotic. In the middle class of America, which is where Todd and I have been all of our lives, that’s not patriotic.”

Really? so who should pay for the body armour that protects your son Governor? Perhaps the "free market" or some private donor? Maybe one of those Lehman Bros? Heck, they have all kinds of money.....
