WASHINGTON DC - White House Chief of Staff Rahm Emanuel's brash, aggressive style is legendary in Washington D.C. Last week Emanuel called a liberal group's commercial that took shots at moderate democrats "fucking retarded." This set off a firestorm of criticism across Capitol Hill, most pointedly from conservative former Alaskan Governor Sarah Palin.
"Those comments were way out of line," said Palin. "I am appalled. President Obama and Vice President O'Biden should ask Emanuel to step down immediately. You can't just have some White House staffer spouting off willy-nilly and saying insensitive things. That's flat out gay!"
Palin plans to begin a bus tour promoting mentally handicapped awareness and political correctness issues. The tour will hit ten cities across the United States. She initially planned for more stops but has experienced trouble selling tickets to the events.
"We'd hit every city across this great country if we could," said Palin. "But, they've jewed us down on ticket prices so bad, we just can't afford to."
