That's part of what makes it so terrifying.  She knew what was happening in the background!  And she wanted it!

Um, why would she want it? What possible benefit would she think she could gain?

I think she's simply more tone-deaf and insensitive than I ever imagined.

The fact is that what we're experiencing right now is a top-down disaster. -Paul Krugman

Because she's crazy.  She shoots wolves from helicopters.  She fancies herself a badass rebel.  She's like the moron version of Vladimir Putin.  Insane.

Accd to the Chicago Tribune:

"This was neat," she said of the outing. "I was happy to get to be invited to participate in this. For one, you need a little bit of levity in this job, especially with so much that has gone in the last couple of months that has been so political obviously that it's nice to get out and do something to promote a local business and to just participate in something that isn't so heavy-handed politics that it invites criticism. Certainly we'll probably invite criticism for even doing this, too, but at least this was fun."

You all miss the point of that video. She is solidifying the image of "Sarahcuda" for her fans. This is like helicopter hunting. She's tough!

Lowbrow white male conservatives... they do not make up more than 15% of the US American electorate.

Perhaps more than 40% of the Alaskan electorate, though.

Tough, but civilized.  She's every woman.  Yes, she's rugged enough to do an interview at a bloody turkey slaughter.  But that doesn't mean she can't look like new money, hip and polished in her Burberry scarf with her Starbucks latte.  Wait, it gets better, her trendy overpriced scarf and coffee actually match the blood and turkey in the background!  She also knows how to accessorize!  She can do it all!

Across the globe, the feminists of yesterday would be spinning in their graves if they saw Sarah Palin's version of "She can do it all!" Girl Power.
