Did Sarah Palin, Ted Nugent and Kid Rock go too far in mocking Hillary Clinton’s portrait?
Washington Post ^ | 4/21/2017 | Lindsey Bever

They ate lobster salad and lamb chops, with baked Alaska for dessert. The dinner-table conversation veered from hunting and music to the Supreme Court. There was also a White House tour — led by their host, President Trump.

And, of course, they documented every moment.

Trump's Wednesday-night dinner guests — Sarah Palin and conservative musicians Ted Nugent and Kid Rock — posted numerous pictures after their visit to the White House, becoming quite a topic of conversation.

One photo in particular has drawn attention — the one in which the three high-profile visitors are seen posing in front of the official portrait of Hillary Clinton, when she was a first lady.

In the picture, Palin, Nugent and Kid Rock appear to be mocking Clinton, who has been the subject of sharp criticism and sometimes crude insults from the trio.

The photo, posted on Palin's Facebook page without a caption, has ricocheted around social media, thrilling Clinton haters and upsetting others who have called it “disrespectful” and “straight up classless.” Some in the latter camp have referred to Palin and her rock-star friends as “the redneck holy trinity.”

“What a bunch of disrespectful idiots,” one person wrote beneath the photo. “You call yourselves proud Americans and behave like 3rd graders in the White House. I don't care if you like her or not. You are disrespectful.”

Even Paul Begala, a former White House counselor to President Bill Clinton, had something to say about it.

“It’s a white trash Mount Rushmore,” the CNN pundit said Thursday on Anderson Cooper's show. “I love it. Look at them. That’s just perfect.”

Then he tweeted about his televised remarks.

Warning others of the dangers of a malignancy like the felon is never going too far.

If they didn’t cover it with human excrement, I’d say ‘no’, but if they did, I’d be on the fence.

I went to the article... guess what? No picture. I suspect it doesn’t exist. Just a bunch of second-hand statements as to what may or may not have happened.

Does this pathetic excuse for a newspaper ever complain when republicans are mocked? May the compost die a thousand deaths by myriads of composting fungi!

So... what did they do that has the Post and social media Leftists' panties in a bunch? From what I remember, they just posed for a photo in front of a portrait of Hillary Clinton. So what? It wasn't like they were giving the portrait the finger or anything.

There are four people on Mount Rushmore, so Begala is saying Hillary is a hillbilly?

I saw the photo a couple days ago. It wasn’t any big deal.

I saw the picture yesterday, or the day before, on Breitbart, and I didn't see anything disrespectful.
They just had their picture taken with a portrait of the Head Shrew.
Maybe Hillary's minions were upset because they weren't kneeling and doing obeisance to the portrait. Or maybe her minions were mind readers and knew that Mrs. Palin, Mr. Nugent, and Mr. 'Rock' despised their hero and didn't like them taking a picture next to the Hillary portrait.

The Loser Leftists are a rather thin skinned bunch...

President Trump needs to remove the Hillary Clinton portrait.

They were smiling, period. But don’t you know republicans can’t breath, while democrats attack all that’s good and decent?

Being a Leftist hypocrite means throwing a tantrum over a normal photo of Kid Rock/Nugent/Palin in front of Hillary Clinton's portrait, while saying nothing about the Obama staffers who posed for pictures while flipping off White House portraits of Ronald Reagan.
