January Challenge - Day 10: Is SHE drunk?

We all say silly things when we're drunk. I have on many occasions said things that I wish I could take back. Damn you, alcohol. You are a good friend and a terrible enemy at the same time.

So it amazes me that there are people who say silly things when they are dead sober. You often wonder to yourself, "is dis fool drunk?" Sarah Palin is the fool in this case. Today, she posted a video to her blog to respond to the horrific shooting that took place in Arizona this weekend. Take a look - especially at 2:18 where she addresses the controversy of her previous targeting swing districts in the last congressional elections with crosshairs on the congressmen and women who were at risk of losing their seats (including Democrat Gaby Giffords, who was shot this weekend).





As my homegirl GloZell says, "guurrrlll, how drunk IS you?" Look, you made a mistake. Own up to it - it's a time where people are going to look for someone to blame, but if you own up to the fact that you made a tasteless attempt at partisan politics, people are also in the mood to forgive. Her "my hands are clean" approach is pitiful, and shows again that she is a terrible candidate to be the leader of the most powerful nation in the world. Hopefully, there's one good thing that comes out of the shooting and that it destroys any chance this moron has of reaching the White House.

I'm irritated. It might be a combination of watching this moron's video and the fact that I really want a nice cold beer. Sigh, Day 10. 18 days left to go!
