Sarah (Who?) Palin’s Skateboarding Policy

Tonight if you were watching, witnessed history being made in the upside down world of United States Politics. It was a night that Republicans all over this vast land were naively proud of. A night when one day you will be asking other people, “Where were you when the most unqualified person in U.S. history for the pick of vice president, Sarah Palin, took the stage and spoke to a crowd of drones?”
Well if you didn’t consider yourself lucky not to listen to that garbage. I must be honest, just days ago when John McCain chose his running mate for the second most important job in the entire world, (no sarcasm), I was quite surprised. I thought to myself, “Wow, this women can definitely win over those Hilary supporters.” In addition, I think she’s super hot and who wouldn’t want to look at her in the news every day? Rush Limbaugh agreed with me on that one.
But then this morning I was going through my morning Internet search routine, I cam across some of Sarah Palin’s policies. I agreed with her on every single one of her policies like censorship of books at the library, and her willingness to keep sex education and condoms out of the public school system. And my favorite policy of hers: the teaching of Creationism in the public school system. She is such a “maverick”.
Then I come across this quote from Politico.com:
Palin Supported Penalties for Using Skateboards on Public or Private Property in Wasilla - “Beginning Oct. 15 — after the expected opening of the $233,000 Wasilla Skate Park — skaters will be breaking the law if they use their skateboards, in-line skates, bicycles, scooters (or any other recreational, non-motorized wheeled device) on public or private property where signs are posted forbidding their use.”
The Frontiersman added, “In the ordinance approved Monday, the penalty for first-time violators of the ordinance is a written warning and the skate device may be confiscated for 10 calendar days. For a second offense, a $50 fine shall be paid and the skate device may be confiscated for 30 calendar days. A third-time offender will have to pay a $100 fine and will lose his or her skate device permanently.”
How dare her do this to skateboarding. What else are the kids of Alaska supposed to do? As Diddy said, “Do they even have crack in Alaska?” Personally I’m completely stunned by this discovery and I will no longer be voting on the McCain/Palin ticket. Where’s Ross Perot, is he still running?
