Palin hate is alive and well in the great state of Nevada.
If you wanna know how stupid government officials can be, this is an example. Maybe Harry Reid wants to suck up to the president a little more nowadays?

A Nevada man has filed suit against the state's Department of Motor Vehicles after multiple requests for personalized license plates supporting Republican Sarah Palin were rejected.
James Linlor, of Douglas County, claims his rights were violated when the state refused to issue a series of license plates supporting the former Alaska governor, branding them 'inappropriate' in nature.
According to the claim, 'GOPALIN' was among several requests rejected, while the agency approved others including 'GO OBAMA' and 'DMOCRAT'.
According to court documents filed on Friday in U.S. District Court, Mr Linlor filed for the personalized license plate 'GOPALIN' in 2009 and 2010. Both, he says, were rejected, reports the Las Vegas Sun.
In June, 2010, his requests for 'PALIN,' 'PALIN12' and 'PALIN16' were denied. The DMV’s Special Plates Committee, which reviews applications, stated the applications were 'vulgar or obscene or expressing superiority of political affiliation.'
