Grayson: Palin has no "Head or Heart," is 'Stupid'

If you are unaware of the on-going twitter war between Sarah Palin and Alan Grayson, here is a brief summary to bring you up to speed.  Alan Grayson is running for Congress in Florida.  Several days ago his campaign released an ad in which Dan Webster, Grayson's opponent, is called "Taliban Dan."  The ad also has several sound bites in which Mr. Webster says "submit to me," implying that Webster is a religious zealot.

In the days after, it was revealed that not only were the quotes in the ad out of context, but that Grayson was aware that the ad was factually inaccurate (to put it mildly).  In defense of Webster, Sarah Palin, the 2008 Republican candidate for Vice President and former governor, tweeted on the social networking site Twitter this:


Grayson took exception to the tweet, firing back on Twitter:
Grayson also went ballistic on Facebook, in which he wrote a lengthy, angry response to Palin.  He called Ms. Palin's followers "zombies" and said that Palin had no "head and heart:"

Notice that Grayson calls Palin "half-baked."  He also says that anything with more than 140 characters can't keep Ms. Palin's attention.  These clearly imply that he thinks she is stupid.  In between several paragraphs, Grayson also included several links asking for money.

In response to that, Palin shot back this on Twitter:
For whatever reason, Grayson may see this as a battle he can win.  Considering that this entire controversy started because he lied to the American people, something tells me that he should reconsider.

Here is the libelous video that started it all:


And here is the entire video with the context intact:


Support Dan Webster!
