Hypocrisy thy name is "Palin".

In yesterday's RAM written Facebook rant, there is this an attack on Rahm Emanuel over this week old report from the Wall Street Journal.

The friction was laid bare in August when Mr. Emanuel showed up at a weekly strategy session featuring liberal groups and White House aides. Some attendees said they were planning to air ads attacking conservative Democrats who were balking at Mr. Obama's health-care overhaul.

"F—ing retarded," Mr. Emanuel scolded the group, according to several participants. He warned them not to alienate lawmakers whose votes would be needed on health care and other top legislative items.

Here is Mansour's....uh Palin's....uh....I don't know....somebody's response on facebook.

The Obama Administration’s Chief of Staff scolded participants, calling them, “F---ing retarded,” according to several participants, as reported in the Wall Street Journal.

Just as we’d be appalled if any public figure of Rahm’s stature ever used the “N-word” or other such inappropriate language, Rahm’s slur on all God’s children with cognitive and developmental disabilities – and the people who love them – is unacceptable, and it’s heartbreaking.

A patriot in North Andover, Massachusetts, notified me of Rahm’s “retarded” slam. I join this gentleman, who is the father of a beautiful child born with Down Syndrome, in asking why the Special Olympics, National Down Syndrome Society and other groups condemning Rahm’s degrading scolding have been completely ignored by the White House. No comment from his boss, the president?

Did you notice it could not simply be a regular person who relayed this information to Sarah? It had to be a "patriot". As if she would not deign to interact with just any old run of the mill American.

It is then that RAM/Palin goes off about wanting "her" child to grow up in a world "free from mindless prejudice and discrimination". Acting almost as if Palin was not the accelerant that started the blaze of racism and hatred that is so prominently on display at Teabagger rallies all across this nation.

However Palin's hypocrisy goes much deeper than that.

I am sure we all remember this tidbit from Levi Johnston.

After Tripp was born, Sarah would pay more attention to our son than she would to her own baby, Trig. Sarah has a weird sense of humor. When she came home from work, Bristol and I would be holding Trig and Tripp. Sarah would call Trig--who was born with Down syndrome--"my little Down's baby." But I couldn't believe it when she would come over and sometimes say, playing around, "No, I don't want the retarded baby--I want the other one," and pick up Tripp. That was just her--even her kids were used to it.

Sarah do you know what is infinitely worse than referring to the actions undertaken by a group of intelligent adults as "f**king retarded"?

Using the word "retard" to refer to an actual child diagnosed with Down syndrome, who is living in your home and looking to you for love and acceptance, that's what.

Your level of hypocrisy is stunning madam. So perhaps I should ask you the very same question posed in the title of your post, "Are You Capable of Decency, Sarah Palin?"

The country, just chock full of "patriots", await your answer.
