Absolutely MUST READ!
Apparently Palin is pissing off almost everyone!
No wonder her negatives are so low. When will the courts step in and protect us from such obscene language.
Can I get some ONOZ's in here!

Vice president's wife Lynne Cheney says she is "amazed and dismayed" that Presidential candidate John McCain is continuing to run with Governor Sarah Palin, whose hate speech encourages violence against Democrats and Barack Obama supporters.
She has taken an active role in condemning the Republican Party for promoting candidates with hate-filled rhetoric and has been especially critical of Palin.
"This certainly isn't the first time, but Palin is certainly, I think, the most extreme example from the campaign of hate speech used to demean Barack Obama, advocate violence against Obama and his supporters, violence against Democrats," Mrs Cheney said in an interview with CNN's Wolf Blitzer.
" John has been good in the past about speaking out on issues of respecting the other side, on issues of being against attacking your opponents patriotism," she said. "I am quite amazed and dismayed that he would continue to run with Palin."
John has said he hopes to influence Palin once in the Whitehouse to deliver his message in a more respectable way. Tuesday, election night, could be a big night for Palin.
The Governor has been nominated by the Republican Party to be John McCain’s Vice President, and Palin’s nomination has been credited for energizing the base.
Since word of the nomination was announced, Palin has been criticized by gay and women's groups for what they regard as misogynist and anti-gay position stances. Gay and women's groups often protest outside her speeches.
Palin has denied attacking Barack Obama’s patriotism by saying he "Palls around with terrorist", and that these attacks should be taken as a statement of "Character."
In her interview, Mrs Cheney said the "Character" label put on Palin’s attacks aren't useful, because they don’t address the concern that she is accusing Obama of treason.
"The label is part of the problem," Mrs Cheney said. "It makes it seem as though Barack Obama is not a good American, and needs to be stopped."
Update:
Thanks go out to TooFolkGR for finding this gem:
"Asked for comment, McCain responded "Lynne Cheney is a bigger c--- than my wife."
