Why Liberals Don't 'Get' Palin
Further proof that Governor Sarah Palin's family is so strange which is why the liberals just can't understand them--and her. This from the Caucus Blog at the NY Times:
Her parents, Chuck and Sally Heath, worked at Fresh Kills landfill in Staten Island in January and February of 2002 as part of a federal Department of Agriculture program.
In a phone interview this evening, Mr. Heath said that he and his wife worked to keep sea gulls and rats from scavenging. Mr. Heath, who is a retired science teacher and is 70 now, and Mrs. Heath, 68, a retired secretary, have worked for the Agriculture Department for the last 15 years. They travel around the world dealing with “nuisance” animals like rats and bears.
“A lot of people just didn’t like the job, it was kind of a morbid thing,” he said of the work at the Staten Island landfill. “But I thought it was part of history.” He said they worked alongside detectives and firefighters and enjoyed “rubbing elbows” with them and hearing their stories.
Yep, those small town people traveled all the way from Alaska to NY to help their country, to help strangers, to do their part in a time of great crisis.
Liberals just don't know many who would do that so they don't understand people who do. And they certainly can't understand people who travel around the world dealing with rats and bears; the liberal sophisticate just doesn't travel that way
