The Palin hypocrisy, it knows no bounds

Last week, media gadfly Sarah Palin demanded that President Obama fire Chief Of Staff Rahm Emmanuel for saying that liberal groups thinking of running health care-related ads against Democratic lawmakers were "Fucking retarded". She compared it using the "N" word and urged his immediate dismissal.

However, the rules are different in the party that genuflects before the altar of Rush:

But the former governor went to great and sometimes awkward lengths to insist that when conservative talk show host Rush Limbaugh used the same exact term to describe the same exact group, it was simply in the role of political humorist.

"They are kooks, so I agree with Rush Limbaugh," she said, when read a quote of Limbaugh calling liberal groups "retards." "Rush Limbaugh was using satire ... . I didn't hear Rush Limbaugh calling a group of people whom he did not agree with 'f-ing retards,' and we did know that Rahm Emanuel, as has been reported, did say that. There is a big difference there."
