From the department of awkward timing: Days after video of Sarah Palin's interview in front of slaughtered turkeys became a web sensation, the conservative group Our Country Deserves Better releases a Thanksgiving-themed ad "thanking" Palin.

The opening of the spot features an announcer praising Palin...in front of images of roasted turkeys.

Take a look:

Some text from the email announcing the advertisement:

Friends, too many times we've seen politicians who "sell out" to the media or political pressure and succumb to politically correct, liberal positions, rather than fight for conservative beliefs. But Gov. Sarah Palin has stood steadfast by her conservatism, both in public as a politician, and in her own private life - carrying to full term her baby boy, Trig, rather than opting out for an abortion as some would have had her done. She believed in the value of that life, just as she believes in the greatness of America.


It's time for us to stand behind Sarah Palin now, not just to support her, but to also show other politicians that if they take the risk to champion conservative ideals, that they will find support from we, the American people.

why were folks upset? she wasn't maligned in any way, even if the media only knows over ki.ll. she didn't miss a beat or blink an eye. get real, she butchers things all the time..it wasn't a big deal to her.

File this video under, "What's Wrong with America". I'm cynically hoping and praying the GOP runs her as a candidate in 2012, that way Pres. Obama can easily win re-election and go back to working on common sense solutions for the problems facing our country.
There's something inherently wrong with a faction of people who believe mediocrity is synonymous with leadership. This same faction gave us eigth years of Bush and can't long enough wait to run Palin.

OMG! That's hilarious! Will it be on SNL tonight? Not sure which one is funnier- this one
or SP and her turkey pardon/slaughter video?

Life can be so surreal!

To me, turkeygate will go down as the most inconsiderate, disrespectful event ever done by a political figure.
