This video of Sarah Palin presiding over a turkey pardoning is all over the place today but here it is for anybody who hasn't seen it. Right around the two minute mark, the contrast between Palin's words and the action behind her is priceless. You know the folks at Saturday Night Live are crying over the fact that this video didn't come out before the election. Joe the Turkey Killer is way more entertaining than Joe the Plumber.

It's all about "what *I* want" or how policies "will affect ME." The Republican stance is that if they don't like something, they don't want anybody else to do it either.
