One of the most controversial issues that Sarah Palin is facing now is about the video on her thanksgiving turkey pardon. While she gave one lucky turkey a pardon, others are being slaughtered. As Palin delivers a moving oratory for the life of the beleaguered bird, what do we see in the background but a bird being slaughtered! The horror swells (as would the horror music, if you monologue internally as I do) when we think about whose neck is next. Would Palin stick her own neck out and comment on the slaughter that turned a little fun into a vino sprayfest? No! She told reporters “this was neat.” Mind you, she was there for a light-hearted photo opportunity, which I’m sure is a welcome change of pace after that sprint to the finish with John McCain during the presidential race. But was she aware of what was going on nearby? Will she be this aware of her surroundings when she supposedly picks up yoke and plows her way into the 2012 presidential election? She may save Joe Sixpack, but what will happen to Johnny Longneck? I’m guessing he’ll need to get his hands on a fast cash advance for a thick metal collar. Click to read more on a Cash Advance.
