TIME featuring Sarah Palin
I’ve never been into politics and therefore wasn’t one of those people who made fun of Sarah Palin. But even I was aware of her being mocked relentlessly in just about every media outlet.
This sentiment apparently runs heavily among students as well – I was at Uris Library yesterday on Cornell’s campus and someone wrote “Skank” on an old TIME magazine issue featuring Palin on the front cover.
Palin may not know what she’s talking about at times, but I think these jeers are more than a bit cruel.
In a recent TIME article with Palin, she said, “Don’t let anyone ever tell you to sit down and shut up.” Even if you don’t agree with anything she does or says, I think we’d all have to admit that that statement is one we can all get behind.
