Politics’ loss is society’s gain as Sarah Palin stepped into her new career with “some straight talk” about the media and Hollywood.
“You represent,” she told assembled journalists, “what could and should be a respected, honest profession, and what could and should be a cornerstone of our democracy–and that’s why our troops are willing to die for you.
“So how about in honor of the American soldier you quit making things up?”
She also decried “anti-hunting, anti-Second Amendment circuses from Hollywood” that rely on “delicate, tiny celebrity starlets” to persecute peaceful gun owners with healthy appetites.
“Hollywood needs to know we eat, therefore, we hunt,” she told a cheering crowd, including a woman in a red T-shirt reading “Palintologist,” defining the profession as “someone who studies Palin and shares her conservative values, Maverick attitude and American style.”
