She’s incapable of representing all Americans.
On Hannity last night, former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin said she’s “all for” profiling Muslims if it saves “innocent American lives.”
I’m really sick of this sort of talk. It’s beyond disgusting. Frankly, it’s un-American – and I’m not one to use that term lightly. It also sets a dangerous precedent that could be applied to the very groups that form the Conservative/Republican base. Not that I’d expect Palin and Co. to realize that since this group is incapable of seeing past the next 30 seconds.
And wouldn’t this emerging GOP position wipe out their favorite lone wolf argument? Would they support profiling all “pro-life” supporters given Dr. Tiller’s murder? Or all tea partiers and gun nuts given the shoot out in Pittsburgh? Of course not. They had better be careful of what they wish for.
