| Hillary, Palin to Protest Imanutjob at UN, Obama to Send Email Instead |

| Both Hillary Clinton and Sarah Palin will participate in a protest on Monday of the presence of Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadienjad, NBC News has learned. The two politicians will not appear together at the protest but will both participate, according to those close to the organizing of this protest. The event is being organized by a coalition of groups (mostly Jewish) upset by the presence of Ahmadienjad in New York at the opening of the U.N. General Assembly and the threat Iran presents to "global security." The protest will take place across the street from the U.N. |

| #11 and this was never billed to us as a partisan political event So ... wouldn't having notable representatives there from both major political parties make it at least a "bi-partisan" (if not a "beyond partisan") event? Having both of them there would have been an even better message to the world, imo. |

| #10 No Obama rep at the affair? Palin gets the protest to herself? Beautiful. |

| #9 Note to ace MSNBC reporter guy. I know it's a tough name, but you should be able to spell it. Ahmadinejad. He's been in the news lately. |

| #7 The Gathering of Eagles will be there distributing thousands of copies of the 'Obsession' documentary. It should be interesting. DanNY |

| #6 Hillary thought she would be the media darling at this event. When she found out Sarah Palin would be there she new she would get second billing so she left in a Huff, which is similar to an Edsil. |

| #4 Sure hope Gov. Palin goes anyway, and I sure hope she and Short Round exchange mutual blunt pleasantries. |

| #3 Clinton aides were furious. "Her attendance was news to us, and this was never billed to us as a partisan political event," said Clinton spokesman Philippe Reines. "Sen. Clinton will therefore not be attending." |
