Posted by a friend,one of her students ---I would like to share my real reason for my interest in finding a cure for ALS. This is a letter from one of my students that she wrote on her own to our brother Jim while he was going through the ALS journey. Shannon came in to school and asked me to give it him. I did so, and he asked me to read it to him. These words meant a lot to him. He did so much for all of us as a nation through his life's work...I can see him smiling down from heaven today as he saw Laura Bush pour a bucket of ice water over George's head! Miss you Jimmy!

Sarah Palin: I ‘Hated’ That SNL ‘Portrayed Me as an Idiot’
http://www.mediaite.com/tv/sarah-palin-i-hated-that-snl-portrayed-me-as-an-idiot/

In an excerpt released by The Hollywood Reporter, Palin shares her reaction to Fey’s portrayal of her and the reasons behind her decision to ultimately appear on the show herself:

“I think SNL is egotistical if they believe that it was truly an effect on maybe the public debate about who should lead the country in the next four years.”

“I know that they portrayed me as an idiot, and I hated that, and I wanted to come on the show and counter some of that.”

“If I ran into Tina Fey again today, I would say: ‘You need to at least pay for my kids’ braces or something from all the money that you made off of pretending that you’re me! My goodness, you capitalized on that! Can’t you contribute a little bit? Jeez!’”

Those damn Republicans, always asking for a handout!
