Who are these people who think there’s a war on Christmas and Christmas isn’t winning? Have they ever visited a Starbucks?

Why is Sarah Palin even involved? Since she quit her post in Alaska, she hasn’t run for public office but acts like a politician who calls her constituents “fans.” What exactly does she do other than essentially proposition her self and image to the highest bidder? Sounds like Sarah is America’s highest paid escort! See how down and dirty she’ll get for the money at http://dregstudiosart.blogspot.com/2011/06/ecstasy-of-sarah-palin_15.html

Sarah Palin, in her newly self-appointed role as spokesperson and savior of Christmas, only burdens the holiday with more negative baggage. Given X-mas is often a costly, hectic and, for some, depressing time of year, the prospect of a shallow opportunist like Palin using it to stoke the fires of the culture wars really takes the twinkle off the tinsel. Indeed, if there's a war on Christmas, it's coming from Palin and her fellow "serve-the-rich" Scrooges of the right wing. In the name of sheer irony, how can these people pretend to defend Christmas while offering nothing but bah-humbug to the 99% of Americans the rest of the year? What do these people know about Christmas? Nothing!

After watching "Game Change" I almost felt sorry for Palin. Clearly in over her head and knowing she was a laughing stock in front of the entire world. Yet back she comes for more. As long as the media keep reporting on this never was, she'll keep finding ways to cash in no matter how stupid it makes her look. And there are actually people who will buy her book, with Sarah laughing all the way to the bank.

Ah yes, Sarah Palin. She of the Sarah Palin fame who is successful and wealthy beyond her wildest dreams. Indeed, she is so successful, we get the usual tripe of a column(ist) trying to ride Palin's coattails for a few minutes of exposure. Yes, and the column is about a book--> that isnt even written at this time. It's good to be Sarah Palin. I see she wowed the crowd at CPAC today, too. I just remember the crowd she drew at MOA = WOW.

create a nonexistent threat. make a lot of noise. make a lot of money defending against this nonexistent threat. congratulate oneself for preventing further attacks from the nonexistent threat. war on christmas. works just like the war on terror.

I hope she runs for president in in 2016. She is absolutely what the GOP needs.

Old Sarah is just ringing that cash register for all it's worth. I wish these conservative elites would have to reveal their yearly take from feeding the flock. There cann't be a bigger, faster growing cash cow in America than conservative propaganda.
