A Palin Christmas

Sarah Palin shared some of her favorite Christmas traditions with Gretchen Carlson of Fox & Friends during a book signing at The Villages in Florida. Fox & Friends recently aired the short segment titled"Christmas with the Palins" for  their Christmas Special.

So how do the Palins spend their Christmas?

"We go to Grandma's the night before and everybody goes to a candlelight church service on Christmas eve," Sarah Palin said. "Whether you've gone to church all year long or not, you're expected to go at least on Christmas eve to a candlelight service and then Santa Claus comes at night...so the next morning we open gifts, then we go to the Wasilla community Christmas dinner. We help out there. That's for people who maybe don't have anywhere else to go that day."

Palin even talked about the importance of having her oldest son home for the holidays...

"The specialness now of having my son home safe and sound from Iraq really hits home to me. As I think of the families whose loved ones didn't come home from the war zone...I want Americans to reach out to those families and... tell them thank you and thank God for them in this ultimate sacrifice that they have given to this beloved country of ours."

Gretchen Carlson even asked some fun questions about Christmas to a special guest...Piper Palin.

    Is the media going to make a big story about every book signing of Palin's because I have never seen an "author" tracked like this before?

    and this is the same b---h who complained about the paparazzi and coverage of her kids, tracking a out her kid and putting her in front of a microphone, the same kid who has missed more school in the past year than the burger flipper dropout at McD's. Do us all a favor - for my Christmas gift I want the media to ignore the whiny quitter.

    No a "facist state" is when you FORCE a health care bill through bribes, coercion, extortion, and lies despite 60% of the country say NO!!

    You think Glenn Beck looked like that kid "Ralphie" in that movie "Christmas Story" when he was a little kid? The guy who played "Ralphie" doesn't look like Glenn now, but it's not hard to imagine The Freak looking like "Ralphie" when he was that age.

    It's Christmas. Leave her alone. Oh, that's right, she courts the media when it suits her, and gets ticked off when it doesn't. So does she like the media to interview her kids or not? Does she like to have her privacy invaded or not? She should make up her mind.

    I love Divinity Fudge especially while I'm watching Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer, been doing it since I was a little pup no bigger than a sea-lion.

    Speaking of Rudolph watch out around here and other conservative blogs for a troll who uses my stage name of "walrus," this libtarded interloper escaped the Island of Misfit Toys not long ago. Caution his views and comments are very irritating LIEberal spins on the truth, I would even go as far as saying he could be a Mao loving commie.

    Sincerely,
    walrus
