Yesterday, Sarah Palin headlined a Tea-Bagger rally in Searchlight, Nevada, (Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid's hometown), and said that Sen. Reid
"will have to explain his votes" when he comes back to his hometown to campaign. Really, Sarah? Will he have to explain his votes in the same way that McCain's campaign staff had to explain World War II to you, and how they had to explain to you why there is a North and South Korea?

And Palin went on to say that the time has come to take back the government from "European-style socialism." To Palin's crowd, the word "socialism" must conjure truly scary images; socialists must be those people who would invade your country, enslave you, rape you and steal your land, religion and culture. Sort of like what Sarah Palin's European ancestors did to Native Americans and Africans. But no, Sarah, socialism is much more benign than that, in fact; socialism is simply anytime that the entire community or state pools its resources for the common good of all the people, you know, as in the public school system, the police department, the fire department, not to mention Social Security and Medicare. Would you like to try to rid the United States of these institutions, Sarah? As we said, it's hard to take people as serious who are this seriously stupid.
