Sarah Palin now speaking at children's charity, not hospital
The organizers decided to have Palin speak at a children's organizations instead of two hospitals. Read here:
http://thespec.com/News/Local/article/693129
The organizers are really twisting things around. They say "We changed our minds because this became a health care debate", but that's not true. They changed their minds because everyone got mad at their stupid idea.
And they said "It's unfair that the hospitals were targets of negative publicity", but they are the ones to blame because they are the ones who booked Palin. |

Great. Now she can infiltrate the susceptible and innocent with complete garbage.
This is so unethical. Those kids don't have any protection.
And I don't even believe in ethics.
In all seriousness though: ""I don't think we could have predicted the backlash, not necessarily here in Hamilton but across North America," Concordia said."
What ****ing country do they live in? OF COURSE that was gonna be everyone's response. >_<

I don't think she's speaking to children. It sounds like she will be speaking to adults at an event where the proceeds go to a charity that benefits children.
That said she's still an idiot and why any charity is booking such a moronic speaker is beyond me.

Oh I'm sure they will, but really should that be the motivation of a charity? Hey let's exploit a moron for money. $$$

Charities need to look after the kids. They'll get the money however they can legally. Let's not forget where the money from the lottery and the like goes. |

Well we laugh and call her a Moron but chances are she'll be a Republican frontrunner for 2012 if she continues her current streak of popularity with working class Republicans/Rich Donors and in the next 2-3 years decides to spend a few minutes reading 6th grade Geography, History & get a subscription or two to Time/Economist while she's at it  A good number of people in USA love her :S
Or we can hope our savior Ron Paul 2012 gains even further ground when his cult followers on the Internet actually come out to polls

Well atleast the world will be a safer place with his let's stop meddling in world affairs ideologies
Unlike the potentially war mongering Palin who won't think twice about the consequences before pulling the trigger at Iran, North Korea or even Pakistan! While sending covert missions to gold old Latin America to topple the new*close economy protectionism hence no cheap labour/raw materials for USA* left movement
