Can we all agree that regardless of your stance on gun control, it has nothing whatsoever to do with marriage equality, tax policy or healthcare*?

Seriously, I don't care what your personal favourite cause is. It may have merit, it may not, but if you have to back it up by having Rick fucking Santorum speak, you've already lost.

*apart from supplying doctors with gsw patients, obviously.

@ChaosEngine

If anything, it's an indication of just how polarised view points really are between generally republican and democrat positions.

I'm sure as an industry body, slanting their PR convention towards aligning with conservative values was calculated based on solid data that said that the number of socially liberal supporters they alienate will be vastly outnumbered by the conservative supporters they can fire up.

CrushBugsays...

Yes and it was horrible. The first thing it did was log me out of VideoSift, toss my theme settings right out the window and basically sundered my Chrome browser experience.

I didn't want something to proxy my entire browser session, I wanted something that would handle just the video embed, just like MediaHint does.

Hola is a nuke when I wanted a knife.

Have you tried Hola?

Darkhandsays...

Yup,

This is why I never give my money to the NRA but I'll donate it to local firearm advocates that do not have any direct ties to the NRA.

I would agree...

Honestly people who show up to hear her talk though seem to just eat this kind of stuff up. At this point she is just cashing in on their ignorance, I don't know that i think she even believes half the insanity she spews.

ChaosEnginesaid:

Has anyone watched the piece just before this?

Hells bells! I mean, Palin was always kind of a joke, but she has seriously just gone full retard.
