The No-Longer-ARCO/BP gas station that’s on the corner of Castro and Market across from Harvey Milk Plaza and catty-corner to the Twin Peaks Tavern, one of the oldest gay bars in SF [with some of the oldest gay men, badump!] apparently decided it wanted to invoke a boycott, as this morning its owner allowed The Liberty Freedom Foundation* to put up a billboard advertising the Snowbunny grifter’s speech on Oct. 14 at San Jose’s Center for the Performing Arts.

Part of the problem is Palin’s strategery, filing some late sure-thing endorsements to up her stats. But this one, on home turf, was by no means certain, and she gets full credit:

We passed on the Shocking! Sarah Palin Disses Teacher! video Monday because, well, it didn’t seem as Shocking! as advertised. Supposedly she Rolls Her Eyes! when the teacher identifies her profession, which was taken as an affront to anyone who has to babysit a bunch of insolent runts five days a week.
