An Apostle of Alaska

Alaska is a unique state with unique problems. It is very different even when compared to Montana and Wyoming.

Sara may be a good choice for a state that has one foot in the early 1900's but she is not for the technical, industrial, highly poulated southern 49 states. Her experience does not relate to the heavily populated cities and states of the south and it's myriad of economic and social problems. Her experience isn't even close to representing and dealing with the world with the complexities of military, social, economic problems that we have. The fact that she possesses Limbugh-Rove qualities is a big deduct in my eyes. Vicious attack politics based on lies and facts taken out of context are not admirable qualities unless you plan to join the roller derby or a mudwrestling contest.

Let us just say that she is an attractive and talented woman. Competent in her niche but not experienced or knowledgeable enough to even consider leading the free world. Yes, nice speech at the RNC but virtually anyone who can read a prepared speech from a teleprompter.

I rest my case.

I wish Sarah well but I do not wish her to be the next president of America.

What a horrible article. Palin "hired friends" and "punished her enemies"? What...are you supposed to reward your enemies and punish your friends? Her "friends" (who happened to be campaign bosses and experts in their fields) that were "assigned" (aka HIRED or APPOINTED) to positions were also qualified for those positions. The fact that Palin knew them makes sense. If she had not known them, people would criticize her for "not properly vetting them" like the Dems are doing now. As for favoring the "Bridge to Nowhere", a $270 million influx into a state is great! Palin was "for" the money but ultimately opposed how it being allocated to friends of the former Senator. The money was already in Alaskan coffers, and you can't give it back (a DEADLY political move especially when you state has already LEGALLY received the funds. Palin used the money for statewide repair projects.

Oh...and the Republican model DOES work. Read your history. The founding fathers of this country saw "Democrats" as rabblerousers who governed based on the "mob mentality". Because of this, they wanted to make it clear that The United States of America was distinguished as a "Representative Republic" (aka "Constitutional Republic") and NOT a "Democracy". If our schools would teach these facts, we'd all be better for it.

Obama is FAR FAR FAR from reprieve. He has yet to explain his radical and criminal associations. He has yet to explain allegation his community party ties and instead attempted to SEQUESTER any available paperwork. He has repeatedly flip-flopped over what he believes (and this is well-documented). I'm so sick of hearing Obama start sentences with, "I've always said I was for (or against)......" and then discover on YouTube that he flip-flopped on his positions....AGAIN. Obama has spent half of his time in office campaigning, NOT WORKING.

Obama makes me sick. His socialist policies make me sick. And if Americans can't see that he intends on "taxing" everyone at the gas pumps by allowing higher gas prices (he quoted a tolerance of $7+) then taxing the hell out of oil companies, then America is under a voodoo spell. Tax cuts for the middle class my arss. The middle class spend more on gas and oil than anyone else. Add $3 to every gallon of gas the middle class pays for and there's you "universal health care" money. What a crock. Are Americans going to despise Bush so much that we're willing to sell our souls for false promises of salvation?

If Americans want to fix the economy, spend more. Duh.

N.O.W. (National Organization of Witches) are being unmasked. They have shown all the world, with their attacks on Gov. Palin, that they are NOT REAL WOMEN. They despise the Gov. because she is NOT a carpet munching FEMINAZI. If for no other reason than the, end of their days....I find her selection, one of the most profound and refreshing political statements, in my lifetime.

We will look back on this .....and recognize this....as the end of The Isle of Lesbos FemiNazi movement.

Sarah Palin...A REAL Woman.

NOBAMA!!!

She may be a qualified Gov but how much does she really know outside of her own little world. She is so out of touch with the rest of the nation, that she up until now has hardly even seen any of the lower 49 other then when she attended college. People need to see past all the things we have in common with her, and think about how she would impact this country. I fear for this country if McCain wins. I will pray, for Gods will.







blah, sooooo

The issue isn't even Palin. With the number of questionable activities now attributed to Palin's administrations of both her city of 6000(at the time she was mayer) and the State of Alaska (pop. just about half a million) the major issue now is McCain's decision making ability. Obvious, like the general republican electorate, McCain was simply bowled over by her personality (as snarky as his, evidently). Did he knowingly choose a running mate who took over a town with 0 debt and left it 22000 in debt while redecorating the mayors offices numerous times, tried to fire the librarian because she would not burn books, and was finally forced to hire a city administrator to do the job she should have been doing (yes, Sarah, being mayor does require responsibility, too bad you couldn't handle it.)? Did he knowingly choose a running mate who hired a public relations team to get earmarks from the federal government? Did he knowingly choose a running mate who backed the bridge to nowhere until it was expedient not to, but kept the money anyway? Did he knowingly choose a running mate embroiled in an investigation of abuse of power? The list goes on: John McCain has shown the worst decision making skills possible. I am flabbergasted, and scared. He absolutely cannot be president.

IN ADDITION TO THE TWO SCANDALS SARAH PALIN IS CURRENTLY INVOLVED IN - THE OTHER SHOE MAY DROP ON PALIN THIS WEEK!!!!

"The National Enquirer's coverage of a vicious war within Sarah Palin's extended family includes several newsworthy revelations, including the resulting incredible charge of an affair plus details of family strife when the Governor's daughter revealed her pregnancy. Following our John Edwards' exclusives, our political reporting has obviously proven to be more detail-oriented than the McCain campaign's vetting process. Despite the McCain camp's attempts to control press coverage they find unfavorable, The Enquirer will continue to pursue news on both sides of the political spectrum."

What I would really like to know is why CNN fanned the flames of "Troopergate" while sitting on information that they had on Wooten and his many "issues" while pointing accusing fingers at Palin. Not until they had an interview with Wooten did they disclose a couple of the many problems in his personnel file. I find CNN's bias on this matter distressing. Most of the problems that Wooten had during his career were known by many of us here on the blogs by last Sunday but CNN didn't begin reporting on them until Friday even tho CNN had at least 2 "reporters" in Alaska. CNN purposely sat on information that would have balanced the story for thier own purposes of promoting Obama and bashing Palin. If you think you are getting "fair political news" from CNN then I have a snow ski resort in the Florida Keys I'd love to sell to you!

It is quite apparent that "Maverick" McCain has been roped, hog-tied and branded by the radical right wing of the party. They have thrust upon him an ideologue who actually hopes that Armageddon is coming soon. A cheerleader with a Bible and a gun.

Although many say that we should not judge her personal life, it is just those irresponsible choices in her life that disqualify her from the second highest office in the land

In her early forties, with four children she is elected to a governorship - and THEN gets pregnant? Oh well, she can do it all. But with what is nowadays called a "special needs" baby who, may I ask, is providing those special needs? And who is paying for them? Her eldest son is off to fight in Iraq - as it is God's will. Her eldest daughter abstained her way into a pregnancy of her own - God's will again, I suppose.

That leaves the First Dude and the two little girls to take care of baby Trig.

Palin says that she is so proud that Bristol "chose" to have her own baby. Yeah? I don???t for one moment believe that Bristol had any choice whatsoever.

Has anyone found out how much the Repulican National Commitee is putting into the dowry for Bristol Palin and her babydaddy Levi Johnston? It must be quite a substantial sum to get him to smile so broadly and so constantly. Will the shotgun wedding be before or after the election? Does the prenuptual agreement stipulate what, if anything, Levi will get in the divorce? Do the terms depend on the outcome of the General Election in November?

If Palin is elected and she treats the Nation the way she treats her family and her Alaskan constituents I fear for the Republic.
