Sarah Palin's Christmas book lifted from Henry Ford's "The International Jew"

Same terminologies.

Quotes From Sarah Palin 'War on Christmas" Book v. Quotes From 1920s Anti-Jewish Propaganda

The point of this comparison is not to cast Sarah Palin as a Nazi. Rather, my intent is to underline uncomfortable similarities between contemporary "war on Christmas" talking points propagated by elements of the American right (e.g. Fox News' Megyn Kelly and Bill O'Reilly) and the evangelical right (Sarah Palin, Bill Donohue, The American Family Association and the Family Research Council, etc.) and anti-pluralist themes to be found within overtly Christian anti-Jewish propaganda that was originally written by Americans and published in America, and then distributed by Hitler and his Nazi Party in the early 1920s.

Surely no one believes that this stupendous twit is capable of actually writing something original.

I doubt that she knows who and what the Nazi's represent or even when the Second World War occurred. She obviously has to pay someone to write for her considering her word salad using words and terminology she does understand. My theory is McCain promoted her for her appearance and ability to work up a crowd and did not realize the messages those around her were feeding her. Palin is on one hand profoundly ignorant and ambitious always a bad combination. Out of curiosity I attended one of her rallies in 2008 and was shocked at her ability rouse a crowd in spite of her ignorance; she exudes loathing and hate, which she also interprets as adoration.
