Dear Democrats,
I can see you don't like conservatives much so pardon me for crashing your party. I'm actually a moderate independent but my experience with the left is that anything to the right of code-pink makes me a "repugnant-con" or whatever. Anyway, I know that Sarah Palin gets your blood up but please, look at yourselves. You are spending precious moments of your life hating on someone who will NEVER hold higher office. I know she has some influence etc. but really, you are making her more relevant by your constant , unceasing hatred. And why? Just because she has different political opinions than you? I can't hate everyone who has a different opinion than me because that would mean I hate something like 57 million people, and that's just in the United States. I don't agree with most of Sarah Palin's opinions, but I don't waste my day, like you folks do, obsessing over it. To those of us on the outside, it really looks like some sort of Palin-hating disease. Give yourselves a break! There are birds chirping and and children laughing. Pay attention to that. Meditate or something. But this hatred is really unbecoming of a group of people who I know are sincerely interested in making the world a better place. Believe it or not, hatred is destructive to your cause. Try love, understanding and compassion, even for those who disagree with you. You will feel better. I guarantee it. Or, read a book by Thich Nhat Hahn.
Yeah. They’ll be gone soon.
Think about why Palin is the focus of such hate. Yes you can call it derangement but eventually you have to come to the conclusion and realize it is genuine, sincere fear on part of the Far Left that Palin in 9 months and then in 33 months may eat their lunch if they do not do something now to undermine her political influence on the current debate and growing popularity among Republicans, conservatives, liberatarians and independents.
You quickly dismiss her as “someone who will never hold higher office”. Two recent polls have found she is now the frontrunner among Republican voters for the GOP nomination. I know, I know you will say it is early-but ask yourself do you really think Palin is going anywhere, that she is going to disappear from the political scene, that suddenly her loyal supporters (I am one) or the Tea party movement are going to abandon her. Palin is here to stay, so I suggest you get used to it and also get used to even more pronounced episodes of Palin Derangement Syndrome in the coming months and years.
