Oh noes! Sarah Palin is a reverse vampire! Instead of sleeping in a coffin, she sleeps in a tanning bed! (That's what I heard, anyway.)

Seriously, it seems that Governor Palin had a tanning bed installed in the Alaska Governors' Mansion using her own money. And this is being held out as a scandal by some very silly people: tanning beds are bad for you because they can cause skin cancer. The irony of this is that the accusers point the finger at Palin for being some kind of religious puritan, and yet all the ridiculous moral judgments we've seen since she was selected come from the left - the self-proclaimed 'tolerant' people.

Frankly, if I lived in a place where the sun doesn't show up much for weeks or months at a time in the winter, I might want to put a damned tanning bed in my house, too.

Update: Oh, and I totally forgot about this.
