If this is true, I do indeed understand the Palin hate.

It's politics in the USA. Most people aren't intelligent enough to tell you why they're voting, but they'll absolutely hammer the person they're not supporting.Pirate Kitty said:I don't get all the hate for her. I'm not a U.S citizen, nor have I ever been there, so I certainly cannot make a call on the issue, but I've yet to hear anything bad about her - except a lot of hate, which seems to be for hate's sake. I'd love to figure out why this is so.
OT: Why anyone would pay for anything signed by anyone is beyond me. Oh look, it has lines on it... how nice.

In all seriousness, surely if somebody actually had a million dollars and wanted an Xbox360 signed by Sarah Palin, they could get their own copy for a LOT less than a million dollars??
Brand new Xbox360 = $500 including controllers, Kinect, a few games etc.
Paying somebody to travel across the country to get her to autograph the Xbox and bring it back to you = $10,000 (you might as well pay them well for this priceless item)
Car rental/fuel/hotel = let's say $5,000 so your employee gets all the good stuff.
Other things I can't think of = $4,500 for...I dunno what.
Total cost = $20,000. So who in blazes is going to pay $1,000,000 for it?!? This guy is truly nuts, unless he doesn't actually want to sell it.
Reason she's being hated is because she's everything that's wrong about Republicanism and she delights in hunting wolves.Pirate Kitty said:I don't get all the hate for her.

Click the link and actually look at the article. It shows a picture of him having her sign it.SenseOfTumour said:Is there actually proof Sarah Palin signed it? I imagine a big clumsy 'X' in green crayon is fairly easy to fake...
I really don't get why she'd sign a video game machine, that'd be like me getting famous and having my own TV show and then letting the Daily Mail give it away with their newspaper, why would she want to be attached to something as heathen and ungodly as a games console?

They also hammer their politicians for any controversial decision, shortly after they demand it to be made.
Nobody is above verbal trip ups. Anyway George W. Bush was voted in twice and he was one of the worst public speakers in the recent history of presidential candidates, so people obviously don't think it's that important a quality!j0frenzy said:You know what keeps the Chinese government happy every time Taiwan comes up? Saying the government IN Taiwan over the government OF Taiwan. 2 letters keeps the US away from an international crisis. A president or presidential candidate should not be prone to screwing that up, much less which Korea has been our friend for 60 years. Just saying.
Well it would be nice and warm at least.Baked Cake said:A xbox signed by somebody who has nothing to do with the system for $1.1mil? I would've thought that the price would decrease drastically cause I don't believe people would want a xbox with graffiti on it. But this isn't surprise since the person is a Sarah Palin supporter who travelled 2100 miles just to get an autograph.
I would rather spend the money buying 2000+ xboxes and then use them to make a house rather than buy this piece of junk.
