Nice. I guess she finds her melanoma double-cancer survivor running-mate a real HOOT.

Early on in the conversation before Palin started to crack up, Lester referred to Sen. Green as a jealous woman and a cancer. Palin, who knows full well Lyda Green is a cancer survivor, didn't do what any decent person would do, say, "Bob, that's going too far."

But as the conversation moved on, Lester intensified his attack on Green.

Lester questioned Green's motherhood, asking Palin if the senator cares about her own kids. Palin laughs.

Then Lester clearly sets the stage for what he is about to say by warning his large audience and Palin. He says, "Governor you can't say this but I will, Lyda Green is a cancer and a b----." Palin laughs for the second time.

But there's strong evidence Palin did condone Lester's name-calling. At the end of Lester making fun of Green as a mother, calling her a cancer, twice, and saying she has to go; after calling the senator a b----, making fun of her weight, and accusing Green of being jealous and hateful; after all of that, Lester ends the conversation offering to visit Palin.

How does Palin respond? "I'd be honored to have you."

The statement released by the governor's office also called Palin's action bad judgment.

But bad judgment is when you stay up late the night before a big test, order steak at a Chinese restaurant or wear blue jeans to a black tie affair.

What the governor did was wrong.

Not only did she sit by and watch a decent public servant get thrashed in front of tens of thousands of people, she actually enjoyed it

3. I just listened to the broadcast of this.

She's the governor (!?!) and she lets those two morning radio guys handle her throughout that entire conversation. It's pretty pathetic. The laughter is beyond inappropriate.

What a peach.

4. well, I ALSO think the re-scheduleing her SOS speech is a big soft spot...

5. And yet, there is a thread here laughing about McCain's cancer. See 9:42.

6. Hmm, anyone on that thread running for POTUS or VP? I didn't think so.

McKeating5's cancer isn't funny, but neither is the idea of this wacko assuming the presidency.
