Palin in Haiti on humanitarian mission


http://www.cnn.com/2010/POLITICS/12/11/haiti.palin/index.html?hpt=T2


From everything I have seen about her in the headlines, once I can say again is WTF?

ON EDIT: I should add I hope she can do the people of Hati some good (at least she's not toting a shotgun). But I fear it's just a photo op.

12. She went to take Christmas presents to the "most pathetic brown children" she could find.
Some rich white people do that at Christmas to absolve themselves of all guilt associated with causing all that suffering in the first place.

16. I guess after killing animals on camera she needs to soften her image a tad

She'll pretend she cares about their plight, all the while trying not to wrinkle her nose at the smell of poverty, disease and squalor. We'll get to see 'Sarah Palin, the Humanitarian'. Be sure to get your hankie.
