Why Wait For Green Police: Fashion Police Already Here

The wardrobe imbroglios of the 2008 campaign were insufficient. Now we must regulate all of Governor Palin’s body markings and accessories. Professor Jacobson points to some classless ponce, Yale Graduate School student Eric Robinson, an Iraq/Afghanistan veteran, and possible miniature John Kerry.

Robinson: it’s her son, arm, and metal. For you to say that wearing a bracelet with her living son’s name on it is:

demonstrates a horrifying contempt for those who gave their last full measure of devotion or an almost unbelievable ignorance of the importance of symbols in American history.

This statement marks you both a tool and a clown. Understood, you’re a grad student, and this could help your progress through Yale in un-obvious ways. Yes, that’s how it’s done. By lesser men.

Robinson: you are admonished to consider silence. Serving your country and then going Winter Soldier is not the path to honor.

    The bitty brained blogger could have google image searched Mrs. Palin and found the band was of a gold hue and not the black band he thought it was. For a grad student he is not really research orientated, really just looking to score points. It kind of looks like he is wasting his money going to grad school if he can’t do proper research. mpw

    Wait… you expected extreme lefties to know anything substantive about honouring soldiers who serve overseas?

    Witnesses who have seen the band in person claim that it is not black, but a darkish bronze/gold color.
