Not sure how well this link will work outside the UK, but here it is, in full (with ads), and of course I should add, completely legal.

Not much there one wouldn't expect (not a criticism here), a rather damning portrait that seemingly paints itself rather independently of Broomfield's best efforts to gain a neutral(ish) insight. I found the contents rather chilling, but also re-assuring; if this person is the flesh and blood embodiment of the far right those of us who aren't enthusiastic Tea-Partisans can perhaps rest easy a little longer..

Worth a watch, definitely. Not Broomfield's most poignant work, largely because Sarah Palin is becoming something of a predictable commodity, but I think it will stand as an illuminating documentary on a subject that deserves closer examination away from the raucous hyperbole of politically charged mainstream media.


Also, I should add, it was thoroughly entertaining.
