Sarah Palin to PETA - My Son Didn't Eat A Dog, But Obama Did

Sarah Palin got into a bit of hot water when she posted photos of her six year old son Trig, who has Down's Syndrome, stepping on the family dog to reach the kitchen sink. She had captioned the photos; "May 2015 see every stumbling block turned into a stepping stone on the path forward."

PETA took issue and criticized photos saying that Palin had "no apparent sympathy for the dog" and that the organization "along with everyone else, is used to the hard-hearted, seeming obliviousness of this bizarrely callous woman."

Now, the former Republican VP candidate has written a long post on her Facebook page defending her son and excoriating PETA for being hypocrites.
