The Palin Problem

Discusting, discusting, absolutely discusting reporting - and I am a Hispanic inmigrant from Central America and I'm amazed at the bias of this discusting magazine. I guess that to be a reporter or editor of a magazine like this you need about a "C" average in school and a socialist mentality since you can not make it on your own.

The Way We Should See McCain and Palin From Now On:
Maverick Personality Disorder: A New Diagnosis
http://headofstate.blogspot.com/2008/10/maverick-personality-disorder.html

Palin has stated she has nothing to lose; and perhaps that is true, it will be interesting to see if she is elected to a 2nd term as the Governor of Alaska. if not her future in politics is bleak.
But she has a future with Fox "news"

Taxation is and always has been a redistribution of wealth. Once you recognize that point, the question is, how are we going to spend the money we raise in taxes?

For the past 8 years, our tax dollars have gone to killing civilians in Iraq and giving big payoffs to Halliburton (co-incidentally owned by the Cheney family). And since there wasn't enough in the treasury to do this in style, we borrowed money from communist China and ran up the national debt to pay for it.

Like 80% of Americans, I am sick of this particular redistribution plan.

Obama's plan reduces taxes on 95% of Americans. The other 5% of us (who make over $250,000 a year) can afford to pay an extra 3%. That extra 3% comes out to only $300 for every $10,000 they make above $250,000. It's not going to kill them. In fact, if you make over $250,000 a year, $300 probably doesn't mean much to you. The other source of increased revenue will be making corporations that ship jobs overseas pay a higher share of tax. Right now, these corporations pay a lower share than companies that keep their employees in the USA. No more incentives to hurt America. We all can agree with that.

Obama promises to go through the Federal budget line by line and cut all the wasteful spending. He promises to have transparency, a website where you can go and actually see the real Federal budget, not the made for TV version you can access under Bush.

Furthermore, Obama's economic plans will lead to a strong economy, an educated workforce, more American based jobs, affordable health care, and freedom from foreign oil. We will regain our position as a world leader, a nation that spreads democracy not with guns and threats, but with prosperity and diplomacy.

How do I know this? I read Obama's Blueprint for Change. And I compared it to what McCain had to offer (more tax cuts for corporations and the wealthy, more wars, a really inadequate health plan, and the stated intention of overturning Roe v. Wade). You really should visit the websites of both candidates and read their platforms.

What happens to Gov. Palin? Well, Gov. Palin becomes the prime voice for the religious right which controls the Republican party and she continues the fight for their theocratic vision of society. She represents the belief that her religion and her God alone belongs in the schools, in the workplace and especially in the government. She espouses the idea that religion is the only source of and only reason for all intellectual achievement. She inevitably leads America to a society easily divided into those who know God's will as she does, and those who do not. The same kind of strict doctrine that drives radical Muslims to hate non-muslims: drives Gov. Palin and her followers to hate all other religions and races who will not submit to their version of the true religion. Gov. Palin will be the next messiah of the Republican evangelical wing. Oh, I forgot she is not a man; so she will have to be content to be the next messiah's helper. Are you watching Mr. Romney?

I am an independent. My motto is to vote for the person who I think is least likely to screw things up. So when Sarah Palin first showed up on the scene, my first reaction was, "Who!? My next was to do some research on this person. What I found was disturbing. I started reading ADN.com, which is the Alaska Daily News website. People, Troopergate is just the tip of the iceberg. There are reports that she used her office as Mayor to for her own personal gain, as well as accepting gifts while in office. She lied when at the Republican convention when claiming she said Thanks but no thanks to money for the bridge to nowhere. As we all now know, she kept the money and never gave it back. She gets asked the same tough question the other candidates get asked; but isn't it funny that she whines about being picked on. Of course she is the only one that can't answer the questions in an intelligent way, or avoids answering the questions all together.

I could go on, but the point is this. Sara Palin has shown herself as the type of politician that will abuse her power and use it for personal gain. She can't handle the press because she lacks the substance, then tries hide her transparent lack of substance by whining. And any way you cut it, she has no busy ever being anywhere near the White House, except as a tourist.

The Kennedy tax cut.

http://www.heritage.org/Research/Taxes/bg1765.cfm

About half way through the article.

"President Kennedy proposed massive tax-rate reductions, which were passed by Congress and became law after he was assassinated. The 1964 tax cut reduced the top marginal personal income tax rate from 91 percent to 70 percent by 1965. The cut reduced lower-bracket rates as well. In the four years prior to the 1965 tax-rate cuts, federal government income tax revenue--adjusted for inflation--increased at an average annual rate of 2.1 percent, while total government income tax revenue (federal plus state and local) increased by 2.6 percent per year . In the four years following the tax cut, federal government income tax revenue increased by 8.6 percent annually and total government income tax revenue increased by 9.0 percent annually. Government income tax revenue not only increased in the years following the tax cut, it increased at a much faster rate.
The Kennedy tax cut set the example that President Ronald Reagan would follow some 17 years later. By increasing incentives to work, produce, and invest, real GDP growth increased in the years following the tax cuts: More people worked, and the tax base expanded. Additionally, the expenditure side of the budget benefited as well because the unemployment rate was significantly reduced.
Using the Congressional Budget Office's revenue forecasts (made with the full knowledge of the future tax cuts), revenues came in much higher than had been anticipated, even after the "cost""of the tax cut had been taken into account. Additionally, in 1965--one year following the tax cut--personal income tax revenue data exceeded expectations by the greatest amounts in the highest income classes.
Testifying before Congress in 1977, Walter Heller, President Kenned''s Chairman of the Council of Economic Advisers, summarized:
What happened to the tax cut in 1965 is difficult to pin down, but insofar as we are able to isolate it, it did seem to have a tremendously stimulative effect, a multiplied effect on the economy. It was the major factor that led to our running a $3 billion surplus by the middle of 1965 before escalation in Vietnam struck us. It was a $12 billion tax cut, which would be about $33 or $34 billion in today's terms, and within one year the revenues into the Federal Treasury were already above what they had been before the tax cut.
Did the tax cut pay for itself in increased revenues? I think the evidence is very strong that it did."

After having witnessed the unbelievable intellectual inabilities of Palin throughout this election campaign, it befuddles me how anyone can continue to give her so much credit. Should she become the leading force of the Republican party, I'd say the Democrats pretty much have the U.S. government under their control for the forseeable future. Such a joke. And, yes, I am an Alaskan resident.

This is what I do know about Sarah Palin ....

The Alaskan EarMarks Queen, of the Frozen Tundra.

She has no [Executive Experience]

Her greatest contribution to Wasilla is the Hockey Rink she had erected and she Built the Hockey Rink before purchasing the land to build the road that leads to the Hockey Rink, she built the road on land, she Did Not purchase and now those same landowners whose land was used to lead to the Hockey Rink, now have her A!! in litigation....

Big Note: For using the Land Owners land Without Purchasing the Land First !!

The Town of Wasilla, population 9,000 or Less, was only 1 Million Dollar in Debt, when Palin took Office, When Palin left her office as Mayor of Wasilla, she left the Town of Wasilla with a 20-25 Million Dollars in DEBT !!!

Sounds like Bush-Cheney in a Dress, she's like Bush in this regard....

She's like Bush enetering office with Less Debt and leaving office in Greater Debt than Before !!!

She's like Cheney when it comes to the [Hunting]...

America will not get the allow her the Chance or Witness another Cheney Hunting Incident, in the Body of Sarah Palin .

Todd Palin was an is Sarah Palin's Shadow Mayor and now Shadow Governor, with the Paper Trail to prove it too.

Plain Lied about her turning down that Ketchikan "Bridge To Nowhere"

She sure as hell, Never Returned the EarMarks Millions given for the Project, an used the Millions for other Projects.

If she turned the Project Down, why did'nt she Return the Funding [EarMark Millions]

Her Gas-Oil Pipeline, via a Canadian Gas-Oil Company, she claimed had been started in Alaska, during the GOP Convention, was a LIE and it Does Not Exist and is now in Litigation as I peck away !!!

The Native Canadian Indians are also taking the Canadian Gas-Oil Company, Palin is using, are beig Dragged into court, based on these Native Canadian Indians taking them to court, because they REFUSE to have their Land used in this Gas-oil Venture.


Palin is not a Feminist at all, based on her Husband Controling her Mayoral and Governorship. A feminist will stand on her own an not allow her Husband to Involve himself in her Business and on her Business Affairs.

Palin and her Husband are AIP members and have their own Agenda's

She has No National or International Experience, she's not well read or Educated and these are just a few facts about Sarah Palin, The EarMarks Queen of the Frozen Tundra.

Troopergate Proves that McCain Gambled on this Wildcard Alaskan and like most [Maverick's]...

McCain's A!! is feeling the Pain of Sarah Palin and he Deserves Every Bit of Grief he's recieving.

He Gambled with the American People and you don't Gamble with America when it comes to the Economy An especially International and National Affiars, by presenting a Good Looking, Political Novice like Sarah Palin.

It's amazing to me the anti-Maverick atttitude that Palin the so-called Maverick has. She claims she'll investigate corruption and clean out Washington. But note that when she's on the opposite end of an investigation, she stalls, lies, denies, blockades, and cries political foul. What will her response be to the Washington elite she gets Mavericky on, if they use the tactics she is using; The stalling, lying and denying she utilizes against the Mavericks trying to expose her ethical and political hypocracy? I guess she thinks those she wants to attack will see the error of their ways and be way more cooperative. You betcha.

From within the McCain Campaign

A McCain source says she appears to be looking out for herself more than the McCain campaign.

"She is a diva. She takes no advice from anyone," said this McCain adviser. "She does not have any relationships of trust with any of us, her family or anyone else.

"Also, she is playing for her own future and sees herself as the next leader of the party.

Remember: Divas trust only unto themselves, as they see themselves as the beginning and end of all wisdom."
