Well, if I’m going to lash one side for being idiotic, I may as well do the other side as well.
This story here is so nutty, that even I don’t even buy it.
The story comes from the Liberal Blog called the LA Progressive, I will resist the temptation to pull a Michelle Malkin here and say, “Well, considering the name, it’s a lie.”
Quote:
“So Sambo beat the bitch!”
This is how Republican Vice Presidential nominee Sarah Palin described Barack Obama’s win over Hillary Clinton to political colleagues in a restaurant a few days after Obama locked up the Democratic Party presidential nomination.
According to Lucille, the waitress serving her table at the time and who asked that her last name not be used, Gov. Palin was eating lunch with five or six people when the subject of the Democrat’s primary battle came up. The governor, seemingly not caring that people at nearby tables would likely hear her, uttered the slur and then laughed loudly as her meal mates joined in appreciatively.
“It was kind of disgusting,” Lucille, who is part Aboriginal, said in a phone interview after admitting that she is frightened of being discovered telling folks in the “lower 48” about life near the North Pole.
Then, almost with a sigh, she added, “But that’s just Alaska.”
Sorry folks, but I, the free-thinking Libertarian Conservative, don’t even buy this one. Do you really expect me to believe that a Woman of her political clout and stature in Alaska would go into a public restaurant and bellow out something as horribly despicable as this?
I would have to say that one would need a “Out of Order” sign posted at the entrance to one’s brain to believe something as outlandish as this.
Yeah, she might have stretched the truth a little on the Jet, She might have done some other rather idiotic stuff, while Mayor of Alaska. But this one, sorry, I don’t buy it, at all.

I would find it easier to believe someone her age used the n word than Sambo. I am 8 years older than her and from the South. The only time we heard it was in the book and there used to be a restaurant by that name, so for us, the biggest association with the name was pancakes and tiger butter.
Exactly. I remember Sambos around here too. They closed long ago. But I remember the place. 😀
