In Sarah Palin News...

...a small controversy was created in her hometown of Wasilla, Alaska, when four political enemies of Palin's were banned from attending a book-signing appearance by the former governor.

Among the four were a journalist, a blogger, a radio host and a local activist, Andree Mcleod, who achieved fame for filing the stream of harassing, frivolous lawsuits that contributed to driving Palin from office.

Good for Palin. As far as I'm concerned, when a political opponent sets out to damage your career, tarnish your reputation or that of your family, they deserve no further effort at collegiality or tolerance. Maybe Ronald Reagan and Tip O'Neill could sit down and have drinks together at the end of the day, even though they were political opposites; the newer breed of partisan warriors don't operate by the same code.
