Palin Supporter owned at my specialist's office
I went to see my orthopedic specialist this morning on the status of my shoulder. Injured in college (7 years ago in Football and Baseball, 3 surgeries later) After tests and everything was done. My doctor, nurses, and I jumped to politics all of a sudden. As we walked out into the lobby My doctor said, "I tell you one damn thing, I'll never vote for anyone whos wife dress costs more than my house and a running mate who's I think should be in a mental institution."

One of his waiting patients said (Woman 35-45), "Dont talk about Sarah!"

I said, "Sarah Palin aint shit."

She then said, "You know she's one of us."

I replied, "In what way she's one of us?"

She said, "You know".

I said "How?"

A hispanic woman who walked into the conversation said, "I cant take this conversation, Sarah Palin is Anti-woman, She want to force her religion down our throat, demean our education system, and will raise our taxes to buy her hunting supplies"

The Palin supporter didn't say a word after that.

7. Joe Biden is white, too. I'm guessing that she meant Protestant.
Biden is Catholic.

3. WTG!
I agree with the poster who said the comment pretty much meant "she's white." It's sad that people are still so damn hateful and racist they would vote for an underqualified hockey mom just because she is white. Anyway I love reading post about folks taking down these idiotic Palin supporters and you and that other woman handled her well. I don't run into many of them in my regular life, but I would be ready to take 'em on if I heard them talking stupid.
