Palin's right

Sarah Palin wants to take on the entrenched Washington elite, and more power to her!

The Republicans have held the White House for all of the last 8 years, 20 of the last 28, and 28 of the last 40. Let's take Palin's advice, and throw them out.

Republican appointees have controlled the bureaucracy just as long. Let's break their stranglehold on their "permanent political establishment."

Republicans have controlled the Senate for 11 of the last 14 years, and the House of Representatives for 12 of the last 14. Let's ensure that their brand of "politics as usual" doesn't return.

All of the last 4 Chief Justices of the Supreme Court and 7 of the current members of that Court have been appointed by Republicans. Talk about a permanent elite!

So yes, let's follow Palin's logic. It's time for a change in Washington; it's time to get rid of the entrenched, corrupt political Republican elites who have been running this country for their own enrichment, and give the country back to the people who have made it great.
