*When Sarah Palin quips quite earnestly that, "If God had not intended for<br />

us to eat animals, how come He made <strong>the</strong>m out of meat?" (a quote <strong>from</strong> her book<br />

"Going Rogue"), <strong>the</strong>n we can go vegan for those abused & tortured innocent beings,<br />

and we can do so post haste!<br />

*When Sarah Palin claims that <strong>the</strong> $700 billion bank bailout gave "help to<br />

those who are concerned about <strong>the</strong> healthcare reform that is needed to help shore<br />

up our economy" (her interview with Katie Couric on Sept 24, 2008), we can know that it<br />

was nothing of <strong>the</strong> sort -- we can know that said bailout was an unjust, illegitimate<br />

& corrupt bonus given to businesses who didn't (and still don't) care one bit about<br />

ei<strong>the</strong>r America or <strong>the</strong>ir fellow Americans.<br />

*When Sarah Palin admonishes Dr. Laura Schlessinger for resigning <strong>from</strong><br />

her popular radio show after using <strong>the</strong> N-word 11 times in five minutes by<br />

tweeting: "Dr. Laura: don't retreat...reload!" (quoted August 18, 2010), we can go out<br />

into our communities and do whatever we can to reach out to members of o<strong>the</strong>r<br />

races & o<strong>the</strong>r creeds & o<strong>the</strong>r sexual orientations & o<strong>the</strong>r species; to do whatever<br />

we can to completely eliminate <strong>the</strong> scourge of bigotry <strong>from</strong> our society.<br />

*And when Sarah Palin says that <strong>the</strong> American government should "create<br />

law based on <strong>the</strong> God of <strong>the</strong> Bible and <strong>the</strong> Ten Commandments" (her interview with<br />

Bill O'Reilly on May 6, 2010), we can strive to uphold <strong>the</strong> actual intent of <strong>the</strong><br />

American Founding Fa<strong>the</strong>rs by keeping our communities & our schools (and<br />

<strong>the</strong>reby <strong>the</strong> United States, and one day <strong>the</strong> world) fully & Respect-fully secular.<br />

Amen ... Let it be so.<br />
