Edit: Please ignore the troll thread three comments in and feel free to actually comment on the diary below :)
Sarah Palin today accused Barack Obama of ties to Rashid Khalidi, a Columbia University professor whom she, in her infinite knowledge of all things having to do with terrorism, calls "a former spokesperson for the Palestinian Liberation Organization." Khalidi has denied being a spokesperson for the PLO, but he has criticized U.S. foreign policy on several occasions, which I guess in Palin's brain equates him to a terrorist.
But Sarah Palin should think twice before condoning academic figures Obama has associated with, as she has acquaintances in her own closet that she may not want revealed, and I'm not talking about her husband Secessionist Todd or her witch doctor priest. What Sarah Palin doesn't want you to know is that she briefly attended Hawaii Pacific University, and do you know who is on their payroll?
An Arabic instructor who has been teaching Arabic to the Army by day... AND CONSULTING ON THE TV SHOW "LOST" BY NIGHT.
DUN DUN DUN!!!!!
Adly Mirza, Ph.D., Instructor of Arabic, also an accomplished portrait artist, musician, and photographer, Arabic Instructor to the US Army, US Air Force and other US Military Branches in Hawaii. He is also the Arabic coach and a freelance set designer for the popular TV series Lost.
"Arabic coach?" "Lost?" If there's anything more dangerous than people who actually TEACH Arabic to other people, it's people who do that on a sexually-charged, violent television series!
Another hidden secret in Sarah Palin's past... you know how she claims to be such a Washington outsider? Well then why did she go to college inside a school built by the same man who built the U.S. Capitol?
The master plan for the UI campus was originally designed in 1908 by the Olmstead Brothers, the sons of Frederick Law Olmsted; the landscape architecture firm from Massachusetts that designed the U.S. Capitol grounds and Central Park in New York City. Other notable campuses designed by the firm include Stanford University, University of California, Berkeley, University of Washington, and University of Notre Dame.
By the way, Ms. Anti-Earmark reform should know that the University of Idaho, where she graduated from, was built thanks to an earmark, in the form of a land grant--SUCKA!!!
Let's not forget her semester at North Idaho College, where Rick Jore, a former Republican member of the Constitution Party of Montana who had his wages garnished for refusing to pay his opponent's legal fees in a vote count dispute, got HIS degree. The "Constitution" Party? Come on, we all know Sarah Palin hates the Constitution... well, except the Second part.
Lastly, let's not forget the crown jewel in Palin's collegiate career: Matanuska-Susitna College in Palmer, Alaska, where students can major in such groundbreaking sciences as Refrigeration & Heating Technology and participate in "community enrichment" activities as "watercolor" (I am not making this up) and knifemaking.
The moral of the story isn't that Sarah Palin isn't qualified to teach pre-school, let alone serve as second in command in what used to be known as the greatest world power. It's that if she needs to go exploring the caverns of academia to find shady characters to link Obama to, either because he once sat in the same room as, attended a cocktail party in honor of, or shook hands with them, she needs to look in the mirror and see how easy it is for us to do the same, with or without bringing the witch doctor into it.
And of course, just for kicks:
Let's pray for Sarah! Come on, talk to God about this woman! Favor, favor, favor!
