I wasn't sure what she looked like, so I had to google her. Plus there's that pesky fact-checking thing that's advisable with lying liars from the great white trash north. But Palin (and many Trump-supporting idiots) probably subscribes to the one-drop rule, too. Not sure if Australia had anything similar.ETA: white guy in Seattle, and I'm darker than she is.
Australia isn't as nuts as America about the whole "one drop" thing. I hasten to add that we're a very long way from being "post-racial", though, it's just that our racists focus more on Aboriginals & Mooslims than on African folk, although probably only because we have so few of the latter.
I am truly grateful to the Moose Queen for adding the word "squirmish", which sounds like a drunken bar fight among worms and snakes, to our lexicon. I look forward to someday being able to pass it off as a Scrabble word. This business, though, of " batting an eye", should be "batting an eyelash"; otherwise, it sounds like an act wothy of Al Capone. It is like " your eyes are getting heavy", as though one's eyeballs are sinking into one's chin. No, it is your eyelids, for the love of God, that are getting heavy.
Yeah, I can't do any of the fancy formatting things other non-commenters can. Do I need to spell in HTML or something?Moose, elk, deer, whatever. They are all best after roasting over a very low flame. That's a gud byte!
I just need to say totally off topic - THAT AVATAR IS THE BEST AVATAR EVAR!
I was scratching my head over that one too, seeing as Iggy is nearly as white as I am, & I'm approximately the same colour as copy paper.
'Møøse bytes'You're welcome!
I believe the entire article is just empty white space.

Still true - maybe even more so - if you lose those last 4 words.
My inner firebug approves.

Huh. What happened to her defense of the 1st Amendment with all of her argle-bargle?

That's all. I haven't had coffee yet.
Dude, you forgot the quote marks (and trademark) around "make American great again" (or just make America "great" again.
Sarah who?

Judging by the way you spelled "libels", I'd say you've been hitting the bottle yourself...
How the holy hell did this become the liberals fault?!
Sounds like when I "take care of my giant cyclops."
