There is enough dislike for Sarah Palin on either side of the political spectrum that she will probably never be president.<\/p>\n

The attacks on the former Alaska governor and FOX News contributor are truly beyond the pale, however.<\/p>\n

They should be beyond the Palin, too, if you’ll pardon the pun.<\/p>\n

Sifting through the 24,000 emails she sent as governor to make some kind of political hay is ridiculous and disrespectful.<\/p>\n

Credit new Two and a Half Men<\/em> star Ashton Kutcher for being a voice of reason in the matter.<\/p>\n

\u201cAs much as I\u2019m not a fan of Sarah Palin I find sifting through her emails repulsive and over reaching media #palinemail,\u201d Kutcher tweeted recently.<\/p>\n

Ashton Kutcher<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

“So agree,” tweeted his wife and fellow movie star Demi Moore on Palin, the subject of an unauthorized documentary The Undefeated<\/em>, slowly making its way to venues across the country.<\/p>\n

It’s refreshing and rare when someone in Hollywood steps up and says or does the right thing.<\/p>\n
