No kidding! I saw that, too, and it turned my stomach. Those innocent children have been brainwashed…against TEACHERS, no less.

Ms. Sophie Smith, may I suggest that you read the factual debunking of the lies against Kathleen Gustafson?

Thank you for a wonderfully written essay. It seems it takes a teacher to deal with sophomoric behavior. Well done.

For “Sophie Smith” – the article is inaccurate; the man does not have all his facts in order. Actually, the only “fact” there is the report of a confrontation in Homer between Palin and a resident of Homer.

Ms G is to be commended. But It was Tina Fey and Katie Couric and Matt Damon and of course Sarah who made all Us alaskans look like freakin Oilfield Trash.

What’s wrong with you people in Homer? Palin’s special will bring in a ton of tourists and money to your town and all you can do is trash her. I hope TLC deletes any refereence to Homer when the show airs.

Thank you Mr. Pearson for your keen (and humorous) take on Palin’s latest PR debacle. Once again the queen of the grifters is shown to reveal her true, snarky personality when she thinks the world isn’t watching. I guess the last laugh (once again) is on her.

Thank you for this well written article. AND for speaking out. I’m glad that Alaskans are no longer the Sleeping Giant and are seeing her for what she is.

What is frightening is the way Todd and the other fellow are blocking the camera and walking into that good woman’s space so menacingly. I shudder to think what she would have done (shudder) if she was in the white house and had a similiar incident. Would Todd have contacted the cia to “deal with this?”

A backer of the constitution, especially free speech? Yeah, right…and I’m the Merry Christmas Barbie and Joe the Plumber is an aristocrat.

If you listen closely you can hear the sound of a large lump forming in the throat of the funny looking lady with goggly eyes and go-go boots, when she realizes she is being filmed.

I raise my glass to the nameless Homer local who is a true Alaskan and a hero to the lower 48 and beyond!!!

Excellent report! Question. If $arah behaved worse than a 3 year old (agreed) where would you place the behavior of the former half-term ex-dude, the “muscle” and their camouflaged daughter?

We would also, too, love to learn details of the tearing down of the sign, the frisking of private citizens that took place on the dock and whether the Palin clan had licenses to fish for halibut? Please?!
