Portugal. The Man discusses Sarah Palin in new interview

Portugal. The Man's recent commentary on vice presidential hopeful Sarah Palin has spawned a lengthier article with Los Angeles' Metromix where the band further commented on the governor and former Wasilla mayor:

What is it about her that you don't like?
Just everything that she represents. When she came into office, they made this big deal out of her firing all the corrupt people. So who gets the jobs that were just all opened up? It ends up, it's all people from her church. They get the jobs at the hospital and they get abortion out of the hospital; [they] pretty much enforced their own rules. I'll always be the first to say: we're not a political band. We're not into voicing opinions on things like this. It's just--that's our hometown.
