Since the 2008 election, Sarah Palin has traveled the country attacking the President. Just as in the election, she is so vague and nonsensical that it is hard to know exactly what she is talking about.

"Death Panels", is a Sarah Palin original. Whether or not she is actually telling a lie or believes what she is saying is unclear anyway, with her it really does not matter.

"Don't tread on me", is the Tea Party's standard. It was a worthy flag in the American Revolution when the "me" in the flag was America itself. Now, the flag bears are the ones doing the treading and the President is their victim.

Excerpts from "Rage, Racism and American Unreason" by Susan Jacoby in the Washington Post on September 14, 2009:

"We have entered what columnist Kathleen Parker calls "a political era of uninhibited belligerence," that is finding expression in sermons, at town hall meetings, on radio talk shows, even on the floor of Congress. Maureen Dowd of the New York Times told it like it is in her op-ed column Sunday, when she said that the real meaning of South Carolina Rep. Joe Wilson's outburst during President Obama's health care speech was not "you lie" but "you lie--boy. Many Americans spent a good deal of time last November patting themselves on the back for having elected an African-American president. What we are seeing now is the bitterness of an un-reconciled minority that will never accept the legitimacy of that election."

Signs carried by this un-reconciled minority prove Ms. Jacoby's point:

The zoo has an Africa lion and the White House has a lyin' African - Impeach the Muslim Marxist - Obama Bin Laden No, No to Anti-Capitalist Congress = Slave Owner Tax Payer = N-Word - Hey Big Brother, show us your real birth certificate - Obama's Plan, White Slavery - President pictured as a witch doctor - Obama, Monkey See, Monkey Spend - Cap Congress and Trade Obama back to Kenya - The anti-Christ is living in the white house - Gimme Yo Change (Obama pictured as a Rapper) - Obama is a destructive unpatriotic black Muslim - Barack Obama, the new face of Hitler - Obama is the Anti-Christ, Oust Obama
