A Dream Team Addresses Alaska
The New York Times' The Caucus ^ | September 12, 2010 | Mark Leibovich

ANCHORAGE, Alaska – The Tea Party dream team of Glenn Beck and Sarah Palin held a 9/11 commemoration rally Saturday night. They shared somber remembrances of the terrorist attacks nine years ago, reiterated the “Faith, Hope and Charity” message from the last time they appeared together (at Mr. Beck’s massive “Restoring Honor” gathering in Washington on Aug. 28). They bashed the media.

“Let me tell you, folks, it’s a brutal, leftist-dominated lamestream media world out there,” Mrs. Palin screamed to a cheering crowd of about 4,000 at a sprawling downtown convention center here. Lines snaked down the sidewalks for a few blocks, causing the event to start nearly 45 minutes later than planned.

The people were mostly supportive, though there were discernible pockets of lingering resentment for Mrs. Palin for quitting her job as Alaska’s governor last summer midway though her first term. There were more Beck shirts than Palin shirts – and a scattering of signs and buttons urging a “Palin-Beck” ticket in 2012. One protestor – Richard Zeigler of Anchorage – stood outside holding a “Palin and Beck 2012” sign captioned “Lipstrick and Dipstick.”

And all of them are writing in the comment section there, not a single positive one!

And they call conservatives intolerant, LOL!

“Well, there are Democrats in Alaska, too.”

Correct, Parasitism is ubiquitous.
