I am not against the killing of animals for food, though goodness knows there has to be a more respectful way to do it than shown here. I'm not a vegetarian.
The terrifying aspect of this video is the juxtaposition of images. There are artists galore out there who would consider themselves geniuses for coming up with a video installation of Sarah Palin talking about god knows what against a backdrop of mindless systematic killing.

Perhaps more than 40% of the Alaskan electorate, though.
I'm pretty sure most of America is watching her and thinking, "Oh, Dear God, when will this freak go away!" But the wingnutosphere loves her, so she'll be around. I'm telling you: Between Bible Spice's continued displays of the utterly bizarre and the firm belief among prominent Reps that McCain failed because he wasn't sufficiently psychotic, the GOP is going Jonestown on us. It's the only explanation I can come up with.
Obama's going to get to 500 EVs next time if they do this stuff for 4 years. WHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!
In the way the The Exorcist is entertaining...
Funny you should mention that particular movie. You're going to love Bobby Jindal in three years. WHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!
