Who is palling around with un-Americans?
So. Sarah Palin is accusing Obama of (basically) being un-American because he “palled around” with “a terrorist”.
Um. She’s referring to William Ayers, who was part of a violent activist group which targeted buildings and not people. That’s not really what I call terrorism, but okay, fine. It was also a long time ago — in the 1970s — and Obama isn’t exactly pals. They worked together very briefly.
Meanwhile, Sarah Palin married someone who belonged to the Alaskan Independence Party — a separatist group — as recently as 2002. Um, isn’t seceeding from the US kind of sort of a little bit anti-American? And isn’t marrying someone rather a bit more intimate than working on a foundation board together??
