This could be funlets make stuff up about Palin

Or lets trust a 19 year old with a grudge

I heard she was an Illuminatti.

I heard she worships cheese. Not the good kind either, the processed stuff at Save-a-lot!

She breaks wind after eating pizza!

She was on the grassy knoll in Dallas.

She faked the moon landings.

She stole the Lindbergh baby.

She once punched the Easter Bunny in the throat!

She takes twelve to thirteen items through the 10 item or less line.
