I agree with Sarah Palin. No need to look up in the air - pigs aren't flying just yet. But really - Sarah Palin has a new message she's been trying out in recent weeks - and it has to do with taking on crony capitalism. Sarah Palin is right - we need to end the corruption in our lobbyist-infested government that has led us to this "for the rich, bye the rich" economy. Of course - Sarah Palin thinks the best way to do that is by electing people who'll dismantle government - which will totally leave those corporations and wealthy people to step in and fill the void. I didn't say she's bright, or that I agree with her solution - which really was just a sideways of attacking Rick Perry. But I think it's great that she's willing to identify and attack crony capitalism. But the truth is we need people who'll dismantle corporate power - and that means ending corporate personhood - getting money out of politics - handing the commons back to the people - and making corporations pay their fair share like they used to in America before Ronald Reagan.

1. Palin Lies!

She is a fake. As gov of Alaska she was the biggest pork recipient. Receiving almost a billion federal dollars of welfare each year. Senator Stevens was convicted of corruption, later let go on a legal technicality.
