Compassionless conservatism

CNN finally gets around to reporting on Sarah Palin's, uh, anti-rape activism record while Mayor of Wasilla. This is truly old news now - Talking Points Memo has been all over this one - but, regardless, I'm glad to see CNN shed a little light on the subject.

I would think that, once and for all, this exposes the farce of Palin's nomination as a bait for all those disaffected Hillary holdouts and PUMAs. But who really knows about these things?

Some people might be inclined to call it fiscal conservatism. I might substitute "compassionless" for "fiscal."
