Philadelphia Flyers fans boo the heck out of Sarah Palin and her daughters
culturekitchen - fresh dissent served daily — I don't know if the w00t the crowd for booing Sarah Palin or to be appalled at the fact she dragged her middle and smallest daughters out on the ice with her. What kind of a mother subjects their daughters to the scorn and rejection of thousands of fans on a hockey rink? Oh right. The same mother that would force her daughter through a pregnancy even if she were the victim of rape or sexual abuse by her father. Way to go Sarah! Via Delaware Online's Pulp Culture. ps : Can you spot the fan with the Obama/Biden banner?

‘Hockey Mom’ Palin Roundly Booed at Ice Hockey Game
Garling Gauge — Hockey fan: “It’s such a terrible start to the season.”  Sarah Palin, Republican vice presidential nominee and self-titled ‘hockey mom’, was roundly booed at the first hockey game she attended since joining the McCain campaign.  It’s hard to find sympathy for Gov. Palin, given her myopic views on just about everything, but I do feel bad for her daughter, Piper, who shouldn’t have to witness her mother contemptuously booed and hissed by thousands of people. Funny enough, Palin saw this ...

Maybe they should call it "FOX Read"
AMERICAblog News| A great nation deserves the truth — NBC's First Read actually claimed that Palin's appearance at the hockey game met a "healthy mix of boos and cheers." Really? What video were they watching? I've seen 3. In all, Palin is getting roundly booed. Video 1. Video 2. Video 3. Why must the corporate media always have to play "fair" with the news - meaning, they know the truth, but they think the truth is unfair if it hurts the Republicans, so they always have to spin things as "mixed." Watch the videos. There was no healthy mix. She was booed. A lot. (FirstRead's story sounds a lot like AP's equally warped piece.) ...

Palin appeared surprised by the reaction, noting that her daughter, Piper, wore a Philadelphia Flyers jersey. Booing is what Philadelphia sports fans are known for. This is the city that booed Santa Claus. This is the city that has one ...

Some Big Bumps In The Road For Sarah Palin’s National Career
The Moderate Voice — Alaska Governor Sarah Palin has hit some bumps in the road in what some consider to be her inexorable attempted road to the 2012 Republican Presidential nomination. She has some public relations problems at homes — typically being blamed on poor staffing that doesn’t do the real Sarah Palin justice. And the many who plucked her out of being just one more GOP governor and his Vice Presidential nomination is not exactly rushing to endorse her for 2012. Add to that her previous image problems — she is a favorite of the GOP’s conservative base but a punchline and a reason not to vote Republican for many other Americans — and she has ...

Politics on HuffingtonPost.com — 10) Last September, a skit on Saturday Night Live suggested incest in the Palin family. "What about the husband?" asked a mock Times reporter. "You know he's doing those daughters. I mean, come on. It's Alaska!" No outrage. Sarah Palin appeared on the show one month later in late October. 9) Days after the announcement of Bristol's pregnancy, Conan O'Brien joked, "It's true, John McCain's running mate, Alaska Governor Sarah Palin, has revealed that her 17-year-old daughter is pregnant. Palin said, 'We should never have introduced her to John Edwards.'" Where was the outrage? Was Conan promoting infidelity with an underage girl? 8 ) From two different ...
