Palin: America does not need ‘this snake oil science stuff’

[Swede]

She was addressing the increasingly urgent matter of global climate change when Palin whipped out a gem of a quote, telling the conference-goers that American does not need "this snake oil science stuff" and calling climate science "Gore-gate."

The former half-term governor was attempting to make a reference to the so-called "Climate-gate" affair that was orchestrated over a set of leaked emails from the University of East Anglia, providing the world with insight to an internal dispute between teams of scientists. The whole "scandal" is better known to MSNBC host Rachael Maddow as "total bull-pucky": fictional claims blown so out of proportion by right-wing media that the masses at least partially accept it.

10. I had a friend whose feet were not on the groud. She was easily manipulated

to believe things about me that were not true. I thought Sarah Palin was a delusional like her. After this post I now think Sarah Palin is pure evil. How could the former governor of ALASKA not know climate change is the truth?
