Obama's Huffington Post: "Palin Will Run in '12 on More Retardation Platform"
Friday, July 3, 2009 | Kristinn

Posted on 07/03/2009 3:31:16 PM PDT by kristinn

The Huffington Post, an official arm of the Obama administration, published an article a few minutes ago on the resignation of Alaska Governor Sarah Palin with the following headline: Palin Will Run in '12 on More Retardation Platform

To make sure that the article's reference to Gov. Palin's infant son Trig who was born with Down Syndrome last year, the article is keyword tagged by the Huffington Post: ...Sarah Palin Trig; Trig; Comedy News

The article is authored by Erik Sean Nelson was posted at the Huffington Post at 6 p.m. EDT.

The text of the article:

In Sarah Palin's resignation announcement she complained about the treatment of her son Trig who always teaches her life lessons. She said that the "world needs more Trigs, not fewer." That's a presidential campaign promise we can all get behind. She will be the first politician to actually try to increase the population of retarded people. To me, it's kinda like saying the world needs more cancer patients because they teach us such personal lessons.

Her first act as President: To introduce a Pre-K lunch buffet that includes lead paint chips. Sort of a Large HEAD-START Program.

She will then encourage women to hold off on pregnancies until their 40's just to mix up some chromosomes.

She now is in favor of abortion only in case of diploid birth.

Her policies will increase jobs because Wal-Mart is building new stores each day and someone has to be the greeter.

This will lead to smaller government because fewer Americans will have the cognitive ability to hold a government job.

Look, she says she's resigning as governor because people are making attacks on her and Trig. If she ever did become president, all Osama bin Laden would have to do to defeat the United States is Photoshop a picture of Trig and she'd surrender the country that night. As she said, "That's not politics as usual." It isn't. Politicians don't usually quit for so stupid of reasons.

Nelson's HuffPo bio: Erik Nelson has written for several comedy websites and published short fiction while living in the deep South. He has studied the local culture of his Red State and feels confident that they have accepted him as one of their own. Big mistake.

The Huffington Post was recently invited to the White House to ask a question of Barack Obama at a nationally televised press conference. The questioner, HuffPo National Editor Nico Pitney, asked a question on a pre-arranged topic of Obama. Pitney was trusted to do so because of his background as a Democratic party operative.

I am a former Wachovia Bank shareholder (now Wells Fargo). I only wish the screen cap showed a Wachovia Banner for me to forward to investor relations demanding they discontinue sponsoring that website.

Disgusting.

I heard a liberal "going off" a few weeks ago saying that Dominos donates to Republican candiates. Dunno if that's true, but all I can say is Pizza Slut can stick their breadsticks up their P'ZONE.

HuffPo is a collection of genuinely evil sub-humans.

There will be no ramifications for HuffPro’s running of this offensive story. There rarely are any when liberal media crosses a taboo line. Letterman had to apologize, days after his committed offense, only because advertisers were pulling out of the network. Otherwise, it woulda been downplayed and no apology.

Palin is an easy target by the media that wants to distract from the Obama fallacies. She has done nothing to deserve the vile media attacks.

How pitiful but so typical of the left's hateful way of thinking. It's obvious Sarah simply scares the heck out of all of 'em.

Did you hear Juan Williams utter pearls of wisdom saying that she just ruined her chances of EVER RUNNING FOR ANY OFFICE because she resigned prematurely? Wishful thinking on all their parts.

They just pissed away any legitimacy they had. The WH would be dumb as a sack of hammers if they go within 10 miles of crap like that.

I listened to her entire announcement. It was honorable, it was direct, and it punctuated the insane politics of our day...it also punctuated her personal commitment to fight, and to do so when it would not distract further from her job as Governor and the foundation she has built there.

I am proud of her and support her. She is a great American.

I think Sarah has just turned, like a fed-up mama Bear, on her detractors. She has put things in order, she has left them in the hands of capable people, and she has now turned to face her enemies directly.

...and I think they are going to be sorry. We have smelled the fear in them for a long time. Good on her!

I believe she will assist others greatly in 2010, and will run herself in 2012...and she has my full support.

GO SARAH GO!

This is what passes as humor with the radical left. No different than blurting out “Chimpy Bushitler” and getting mad laughter from the kool aid drinkers in the audience. No different from when Randi Rhodes made the reference from the Godfather movie. No different from the anarkids (read DNC operatives) at the St Paul RNC convention smashing window, slashing tires, and making fire bombs to use on the police, this all being “exercising their right of political expression”.

The time for civil debate is long past. We are at war. Wake up.

But..but..she resigned....why are they still maligning her?

For the same reason nobama tries to blame all his troubles on Pres. Bush. Because liberalism is a mental disease.

Below is my email to Wells Fargo Company investor relations:

***************************************************************

To Whom it May Concern:

As a former WB shareholder (now WFC), I demand that Wachovia drop sponsorship of The Huffington Post website.

Today's commentary on The Huffington Post directed towards Sarah Palin and her mentally-disabled son, Trig, has no place in a civilized society.

Quoting Erik Nelson, Huffington Post writer:

In Sarah Palin's resignation announcement she complained about the treatment of her son Trig who always teaches her life lessons. She said that the "world needs more Trigs, not fewer." That's a presidential campaign promise we can all get behind. She will be the first politician to actually try to increase the population of retarded people. To me, it's kinda like saying the world needs more cancer patients because they teach us such personal lessons.

Her first act as President: To introduce a Pre-K lunch buffet that includes lead paint chips. Sort of a Large HEAD-START Program.

She will then encourage women to hold off on pregnancies until their 40's just to mix up some chromosomes.

She now is in favor of abortion only in case of diploid birth.

Her policies will increase jobs because Wal-Mart is building new stores each day and someone has to be the greeter.

This will lead to smaller government because fewer Americans will have the cognitive ability to hold a government job.

Look, she says she's resigning as governor because people are making attacks on her and Trig. If she ever did become president, all Osama bin Laden would have to do to defeat the United States is Photoshop a picture of Trig and she'd surrender the country that night. As she said, "That's not politics as usual." It isn't. Politicians don't usually quit for so stupid of reasons.

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/erik-sean-nelson/palin-will-run-in-12-on-m_b_225568.html [since removed]

Financial sponsorship of such loathesome commentary is a poor reflection on Wachovia Bank, and as a WFC shareholder I feel obligated to point this matter out to President Stumpf and the Board of Directors.

I look forward to a response on this matter in a timely fashion.

Respectfully,

[Rodamala]

What a vile and toxic article...no wonder they pulled it. Anyone with half a brain would see this uncivilized bullying uncalled for. This is not “reporting” it is terrorizing and taunting. The Liberals must truly be afraid of Palin. Otherwise, they wouldn’t waste their breathe.
