The above are the names of Sarah Palin’s children, though the procession sounds like an old-fashioned forward line.
She is governor of Alaska.
And now she might be Vice-President of the US.
OK, Alaskaâs only got a small population; but the US? Sheâll only be a heartbeat away from the whole shooting match (which given her proclivities it might well end up as.)
But never mind her politics; would you let someone who calls her children names like these run the proverbial whelk stall?
(And before anyone asks, yes, I would feel the same about a man whose children were similarly lumbered.)
