Sarah Palin Calls For Firing Of Chief Of Staff Emanuel & AG Holder

By Donald Griffith on February 10, 2010, 3:45 pm

As Sarah Palin gears up for a possible 2012 presidential run she’s also ramped up her rhetoric against  Obama. Most recently she’s begun openly calling for two key members of Obama’s administration and staff to step down or be fired.

Rahm Emanuel And The F-Word

After reports circulated that White House Chief of Staff Rahm Emanuel had called liberal groups who are thinking of running negative ads against members of Congress who did not support a health care reform initiative “f-ing retarded,” Palin went ballistic. Using her usual means of communication with her followers, she posted a Face Book message in which she called for Emanuel’s dismissal. Palin has a child that was born with Down’s syndrome, and apparently because of this took the slur personally.

Holder And The War On Terror

Next it was time for Palin to turn her attention to Obama’s Attorney General, Eric Holder. Palin and Republicans in general, have been incensed over the administration’s handling of what they feel are legitimate terror cases like that of the failed Christmas Day Bomber. The bomber had transported explosive materials inside his clothes but the bomb failed to detonate, and the suspect was apprehended. Palin has said she strongly disagrees with the fact that that the would-be bomber was only questioned for 50 minutes before he was read his Miranda rights. Palin has also found problems with Holder’s decision to try some terrorist suspects on US soil.

 

Walking The Thin Line Of Hypocrisy

Palin has been strong in her criticism of the Obama administration’s key members, but has been oddly quiet when people on her side of the political aisle have committed similar actions. Shock jock Rush Limbaugh recently made fun of those who were getting angry about people who “are retarded.” When asked about Limbaugh’s comments Palin responded that his words were satire. Until Palin recognizes that the average American recognizes this kind of hypocrisy as poorly executed, it will be hard to take her demands seriously.

    She’s an “f-ing” hypocrit for giving Rush a free pass on his use of the word. She lost a lot more credibiity on that. She’s about over… even Tea Party people are starting to notice that she’ll only speak in front of them if they pay her gobs of cash. It’s only a matter of time before most everyone is aware that her only motivation is her own personal wellbeing.
