Sarah Palin is not backing off her incendiary waterboarding speech at the NRA. Instead she's taking it even farther down the rabbit hole.
April 29, 2014

Sarah Palin is not backing off her incendiary statements about how waterboarding is how we baptize terrorists. In a rambling Facebook post she writes:

Actions to stop terrorists who’d utterly annihilate America and delight in massacring our innocent children? Darn right I’d do whatever it takes to foil their murderous jihadist plots – including waterboarding. Whatever one thinks of my one-liner at the NRA rally about treating evil terrorists the way they deserve to be treated to prevent the death of innocent people.

Torture baby, torture. She loves it. Apparently the Christian conservative bloggers that took offense to her comments didn't faze her.

She then went on to attack MSNBC and politicians for cutting military budgets and of course, Obama:

...it’s utterly absurd for MSNBC to suggest that I could put our beloved troops in harm’s way, but we’ve come to expect the absurd from that failing network. If you want to talk about what really harms our troops, let’s talk about politicians who gut our military’s budgets, or a president whose skewed budgetary priorities slash military benefits, or an administration that puts our vets on endless waiting lists for care that comes too late to help those who’ve paid the price for our freedom, or those who break bread with those who think it makes no difference how our military heroes died in Benghazi or anywhere else trying to protect America. Those actions are a heck of a lot more harmful than declaring an appropriate message our enemies should receive.

It took her a while to get to it, but I knew she'd throw a Benghazi in there. And as usual, she still doesn't understand what freedom of speech means.

If some overly sensitive wusses took offense, remember the First Amendment doesn’t give you a right not to be offended. Perhaps hypocritical folks who only want Freedom of Speech to apply to those who agree with their liberal agenda might want to consider that the evil terrorists who were the brunt of my one-liner would be the first to strip away ALL our rights if given the chance. That’s why we do whatever we can to prevent them from killing innocent people. And for that, we should NEVER apologize.

Can you tell me what she means in this section? Never mind. She's turned herself into a female Ted Nugent now. This means that her posts and speeches will get crazier and nastier the longer she goes on.

Can you help us out?
