Quotes
I have one of my absolute best friends for the last 30 years happens to be gay, and I love her dearly. And she is not my 'gay friend,' she is one of my best friends who happens to have made a choice that isn't a choice I would have made. But I'm not going to judge people. --Sarah PalinCBS News: Palin Opens Up On Controversial Issues (September 30, 2008)
