In her hour-long interview with Sean Hannity last night<\/a>, former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin finally answered that infamous question Katie Couric asked more than a year ago: What newspapers do you read?<\/em><\/p>\n

As she told Hannity, she reads Newsmax, the Wall Street Journal, her hometown Wasilla paper the Frontiersman, and “everything online.”<\/em>
\nAND<\/a><\/p>\n

On Tuesday, Palin took time out from her hectic schedule to chat exclusively with Newsmax about her new book, “Going Rogue: An American Life,” and offer her take on the current political scene.<\/em><\/p>\n

But, before the interview could even begin, Palin excitedly offered her unsolicited opinion on Newsmax.<\/em><\/p>\n

“Thank you so much for your daily updates,” she said, adding, “If it weren’t for Newsmax, there’d be a lot of us wondering what the heck was going on that day.”<\/em><\/p>\n

But Palin couldn’t contain her praise for Newsmax.<\/em><\/p>\n

She continued: “It is very valuable, very helpful, and I appreciate all that you guys are doing to get a good message out there.”<\/em><\/p>\n

When last you heard from Newsmax, it was running an article advocating a military coup against President Obama<\/a>.<\/p>\n

It could be worse.\u00c2\u00a0 When we find out she places on her car the\u00c2\u00a0 bumper sticker that is sweeping America, call me back<\/a>:<\/p>\n

There\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s a new slogan making its way onto car bumpers and across the Internet. It reads simply: \u00e2\u20ac\u0153Pray for Obama: Psalm 109:8\u00e2\u20ac\u009d<\/em><\/p>\n

A nice sentiment?<\/em><\/p>\n

Maybe not.<\/em><\/p>\n

The psalm reads, \u00e2\u20ac\u0153Let his days be few; and let another take his office.\u00e2\u20ac\u009d<\/em><\/p>\n

Presidential criticism through witty slogans is nothing new. Bumper stickers, t-shirts, and hats with \u00e2\u20ac\u01531\/20\/09\u00e2\u20ac\u009d commemorated President Bush\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s last day in office.<\/em><\/p>\n

But the verse immediately following the psalm referenced is a bit more ominous: \u00e2\u20ac\u0153Let his children be fatherless, and his wife a widow.\u00e2\u20ac\u009d<\/em><\/p>\n

It might be worth noting too that this was the top ad on the Drudge Report yesterday<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
