Yet another instance in which Sarah Palin shows her stupidity. And her paranoia.

Palin in Wisconsin
A moment of odd paranoia from Jonathan Martin's piece:

In addition to the suggestion that government officials would consider hastening the death of the infirm or handicapped, she began her remarks with a puzzling commentary on the design of newly minted dollar coints.

Noting that there had been a lot of “change” of late, Palin recalled a recent conversation with a friend about how the phrase “In God We Trust” had been moved to the edge of the new coins.

“Who calls a shot like that?” she demanded. “Who makes a decision like that?”

She added: “It’s a disturbing trend.”

Unsaid but implied was that the new Democratic White House was behind such a move to secularize the nation’s currency.

But the new coins – concerns over which apparently stemmed from an email chain letter widely circulated among conservatives – were commissioned by the Republican-led Congress in 2005 and approved by President Bush.

2. She's right to be alarmed. If you let those liberals at our coins, next
thing you know they'll have the lettering off the coins entirely and floating in mid-air.

Right alongside Putin's head.
