Update: McCain Selects Gov. Sarah Palin as Running Mate

[The Goat]

Just thought I'd share an interesting personal story about Palin. My cousin lives in Wassila and up until a year ago was the athletic director and football coach. The governor's son was trying for the football team but was constantly ineligible due to academic performance (evidently brains don't run in the family). Palin demanded Joey make the exception for her dunce son but my cous stood his ground and stuck w/ the athletic policy. The next week she intervened and had the board fire him.

Now the funny part is that he's a devoted Publican who planned to vote for old Johny. When he heard Palin was the veep he decided he just couldn't vote.

Funnier still how she's already under investigation for corruption based on a similar scenario.

Even funnier still how the conservative media can fall in love so easily w/ someone who's evidently known as a vindictive bitch up there in corruption central

...you gotta love American politics.
