"They were like locusts. She showed up with like 20 people, and they immediately swarmed the place taking everything!"
A vendor at the Silver Spoon Red Cross For Haiti Oscar gifting suite discusses the behavior of former Alaska governor Sarah Palin and her entourage, who apparently made a pretty good haul the other day.

Remind me again: Is she up for Special Visual Effects, or Non-Original Short Subject?
Wonder how many Haitians she picked up.
Zero. Her fingers were too slick with chicken grease.
Ohh the comments section. Ohhh.
"Sad to see how ignorant some people are, but what do you expect out of columnists on an entertainment site? Ted, you're about as likeable and credible as Katie Couric or anyone else who regularly spits biased garbage on the airwaves. Go Sarah! And gee, way to be judgemental Ted!"
Have you *seen* some of the usual comments on EOnline? At least this person can string a few sentences together with (mostly) correct spelling...
I know this is not how I should think, but I find hill people incredibly delightful.
Excuse me, "snowbilly" is the preferred nomenclature.
I watched the Leno clip last night. She reminds me of a 14 year old who just discovered her first Neitzsche quote. She's America's lightweight and thrilled by it all.
What does not kill her makes me weep.
YES! Let's pay MORE attention to Palin and hurl invective at her because that has always decreased her profile in the past. Good strategy, people who dislike Sarah Palin.
There are those who would argue that shining a light on ridiculous behaviors make them much more obvious and clear to those who might otherwise be unaware of them. In fact, you've made that argument right here, on this site, about other subjects! But I guess it's much easier to be the Contrarian Voice of The People sometimes. And as someone who will slap up a quick bear post because he's too lazy to do anything else, I cannot condemn that self-indulgent indolence. So good for you.
Yeah, the real disconnect here is that there is a large set of people who will see this, and think, "Wow, what a stupid rube! Imagine the horrible shit that would have happened if she was elected."
And another set that will see this exact same story, identify with her, and assume the reporter is part of the vast conspiracy persecuting their kind.
Obviously the readers of this site would be in the first category. I'm sure there's a fine line between kicking this dead horse and the disinfectant qualities of sun shining on bad behavior, but I, for one, still want to point and laugh at this idiot.
Oooh! Churl fight!
Nice.
Love that the Palins are now officially on the grift full-time -- it's obviously Sarah and Todd's true calling, after shooting things and snow machine racing.
I'll bet gives them away as gifts, and then writes them off her taxes.
(I AM AWARE THAT I AM A BITCH)
'she'
Oh man, I felt horrible there for a minute, when I thought she was taking stuff from the Red Cross in Haiti. But I don't feel horrible anymore about thinking that.
