The message ends with a link to the page of Palin’s brother, Chuck Heath Jr., who wrote a short, open letter to Cher: “I was sorry to hear that you tweeted out such vile comments about my little sister yesterday. It’s sad because Sarah has never had a harsh word to say about you. In fact, our grandmother was one of your biggest fans. Have a good night, Chuck.”
On Friday, Cher launched an attack on Palin by tweeting: “Go to the dictionary, & look up the ‘C’ word, … next 2 the definition … you’ll see a pic of Sarah Palin! No … wait … she’s under dumb C word.”
Cher got lots of commentary back through Twitter, some supportive and some not, and she later doubled down on her assessment of Palin and threw in conservative Tea Partiers, as well.
“Double my last twt & throw in the T-Jihadists,” she tweeted.
