The Sarah Palin obssession is back. Allegations in a new book suggest that Sarah Palin, the former Alaska governor and John McCain’s choice for vice-president, slept with Glen Rice, an African American man who was a college basketball star at Michigan State. America has lost its mind.

Whether the allegations are true or false, what is the point of bringing it up now? Yes, she claims to be a conservative and the conservatives are tied to intolerance. Is it surprising that she is a hypocrite? Of course not. You remember the campaign for abstinence that she ran and the shocking news of her high school dropout daughter’s pregnancy.

There is nothing wrong with sleeping with a black man. The problem is in the heads of conservatives. Rumors keep coming from every direction. The latest news is that Todd Palin is filing for divorce. Honestly, Mr. Palin must be living in hell. As the Ashanti of Ghana say, “He who marries a real beauty is seeking trouble.”
