News for Sarah Palin; meet a few community organizers
I got this the other day from my sister-in-law, and since this is the day of solidarity to speak out on behalf of community organizers and all that they do, I figured this was about as perfect a response to Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin’s assinine and degrading comments about the importance of community organizers as I could find anywhere.
And just for the record, one of these community organizers is Jesus Christ. Being the super duper holy roller that she proclaims to be, this ought to count for something with Palin.

I love it. This is fantastic..You need to MAKE SURE that Sarah Palin sees this list. Perhaps you can send it to C-Span or some other network station that would broadcast it.
