I've shown unusual restraint on the latest Palin fooferaw. It's her nominee to be Alaska's attorney general, Wayne Anthony Ross, who has the kind of politics you'd expect from today's ever-self-marginalizing GOP:

[H]e called homosexuals “degenerates,” hailed the “courage” of a student who lionized the Ku Klux Klan, vowed to undermine the sovereignty of Native American tribes, and allegedly defended men who rape their wives.

Here's the KKK incident, lovingly reported by Max Blumenthal:

Among them is a 1993 piece entitled, “KKK ‘art’ project gets ‘A’ for courage,” in which Ross cheered on a local college student who had offended an African-American classmate by creating a statue of a Klansman with a cross in one hand and a flag in the other. “It might have been fun to see [the African-American student] try to remove the display,” Ross wrote. “Then she could have been arrested and her future as a student of the university could have been resolved through the university disciplinary proceedings.”

And some thought Palin would disappear after the election...
