Nice Vetting, Part II. Sarah Palin, Secessionist

Which is you know, a variant of treason if you want to make it plain:

This next clip is the 1st of 2 parts from the convention itself. About half way through the speech(at 6:00), the Vice Chairman of the AIP, Dexter Clark, says this of Palin: "Our current governor who I mentioned at the last conference, the one we were hoping would get elected, Sarah Palin, did get elected . . . .and there was a lot of talk about her moving up. She was an AIP member before she got the job as mayor . . . "

The AIP’s main aim is to secede from the United States, becoming either a territory or a sovereign nation. They aim to be entirely "self-sufficient" using profits from the oil and gas resources of the state.

I wonder if anyone - affiliated with what passes for a press corps will bother to ask?

I almost wish I didn't know the answer to that question.
