1. Yes, I was appalled that she was going to speak in China. I just hope the WH
response, when asked, is that Mrs. Palin is not speaking on behalf of our government, she's no longer a member -- or something like that.

I don't think the administration could request that she not go (not that she sought their permission) without causing a flap. Just roll the eyes, kind of smirk, like she's your nutty Aunt Hazel.

I hate that bitch. 98888i

3. I'd rather not go there
I keep remembering that when Bush the Preppy tried to make a campaign issue of Clinton's activities abroad in opposition to the war in Vietnam, my thought was the only thing that kept me from protesting the Vietnam War abroad was that I was never abroad during that time.

4. I`m still trying to figure out, why she thought an international audience
would be interested in this country`s health care "death panels". The woman was limited to being a national embarrasment, now she has gone international. Sounds like she was trying out her `12 stump speech.

6. She spoke in fron of an intenational group of "investors" in Hong Kong...
Not exactly speakng in front of a group from Communist China.

7. Your OP is riddled with mistakes


The most significant is that she wasn't speaking to Chinese Communists.


In any case the last thing this country needs is more restrictions on travel and some type of ideological measure on who should get a passport.


For more actual facts on what she talked about go here http://www.cnn.com/2009/POLITICS/09/23/palin.hongkong/index.html
