Palin turns the page’ from the economy back to ‘drill baby drill’

Thinkprogress:

The Washington Post reported this weekend that the McCain campaign’s new strategy is “
turning the page” on the economic crisis, with a focus on character issues. “If we keep talking about the economic crisis, we’re going to lose,” another aide admitted.

Apparently, another one of the campaign’s strategies is also to shift back to energy. Today at a rally in Florida, Gov. Sarah Palin (R-AK) claimed that the “value of your paycheck is going down” simply “because of the high cost of energy”:

High gas prices, they are making a full tank of a gas seem like such a luxury. The cost of groceries is going up. All across the board, the cost of living is going up.

Everything is. But the value of your paycheck is going down, and that’s because of the high cost of energy.

Palin then pushed for her “all of the above” approach to energy, to which the crowd shouted, “Drill baby drill!”

Well now that Sarah aka Betty Boop has caused hate around the World with her speeches it's time to turn the page to something else. I read about they man shoot for wearing an Obama shirt in England and as Americas yell Kill and terrorist. This is the way Hitler came to power.
