Sarah Palin: the anti-intellectual boor

Can I just say how tired I am of her? The more we learn the more frightening she is. Recently she criticized government funding for fruit fly research as wasteful and went on to comment that some fruit fly research actually takes place in Paris, France. If she took a moment to read a paper or ask someone with some knowledge on the issue, she would learn that the study of fruit flies had led to important advancement in the study of genetic disorders and defects, including those that have impacted her own family. Of course, when you don't believe in science or evolution I suppose the study of DNA sounds like a bunch of elitist, liberal, Parisian mumbo jumbo, gosh darn it.
