Your article uses the word "fire" incorrectly.
Does, eh? Your own source says this
"Mary Ellen Emmons, got a letter from Palin telling her she was going to be fired. The censorship issue was not mentioned as a reason for the firing. The letter said the new mayor felt Emmons didn't fully support her and had to go."

Man, if that ain't being fired.

The bottom line is
SARAH PALIN is FIT!
How can anyone not love Sarah?

Seeing the left slam her shows the cruelty at their core. Politics aside the Left has taken a bundle of cheap shots at the mother of five who is just doing what she thinks is right.

While I haven't liked the rogues on the left for some time I now find them repugnant, vile and without virtue of any kind.

I suppose they were attacked by their family dog and beaten by their step fathers as infants so they aren't totally responsible for their actions........wait a minute..........yes they are......

Despite a national discussion about whether Republican vice presidential nominee Sarah Palin sought to ban books as mayor more than a decade ago, the city says there is no record of any books being yanked from the shelves.
Since being selected as John McCain's running mate, Palin has faced questions over discussions she had with Wasilla's librarian in 1996. In recent days, a bogus list of "banned books" has been widely circulated on the Internet.

But on its website, the city of Wasilla posted a statement asserting that no books at the library have ever been banned.

The statement notes that the library has a policy to handle requests to remove books. During a period of more than two decades four books have been challenged by library patrons, including a book in 2005 by television comedian Jon Stewart, America (The Book), according to the city.

Taylor Griffin, a McCain spokesman, said Palin raised the issue of the library's policy because there had been widespread discussion in Wasilla at that time about banning books. She was trying to understand the city's policy, he said.
HMmm....
Palin did not ban books in Wasilla as mayor - USATODAY.com

Look like much ado about... nothing. Like 99.99% of the "OMG PALIN" stories the libs like to lap up...

Yes well, considering thats a left wing MSM site citing it seemed appropriate to debunk this silliness.

How can we not love her? Oh, it's very easy, just look at the stuff she supports. Abstinence only sex ed, Creationism next to evolution, unconditional pro-life, etc. etc. etc.

It's quite easy to dislike an extremely religious and Conservative person.

Also, before you start saying how the left is doing all these things, look at the right. They have been doing it far longer than the left buddy.

I guess my post was slightly off topic, so let's get back to the debate!

I was gonna break it all down at you where you're just either misrepresenting her views or are plain wrong, but I figured that was a waste of time.

I'll give a go though.

Palin isn't for EXPLICIT sex ed and believes abstinence is the preferred method of birth control. And she's right. It works 100% of the time it's used. Obviously her daughter failed miserably to practice abstinence and thus... is now preggers and to be wed. She has to live with this error. Some people call that cruel, others see that as holding a person accountable for their actions.

She believes there is a place for creationist teachings in school, this is true. But has she ever pushed for it actively to be enacted, the answer as far as I know is she has not. She would like to see it happen, but there are bigger fish for her to fry as they say.

And she's not unconditional pro-life, she does support abortion under certain conditions.

You have no idea what Sarah supports or doesn't support. All you have is what you guys on the left want us to believe she believes.

Let her speak for herself. And remember a very real thing; other people can disagree with you and still be good people.

Now I want you to sit and ponder my statement. While you are a leftist, those on the Right are also good people. I'm not sure that you understand this fact, being a leftist and all; and a proponent of class and racial hatred.
