Palin does not seem to realize that people are going to check her facts now regardless if she is a cute and spunky right wing extremist!!


Ah, the musings of a left wing extremist…lie and attack, lie and attack, lie and attack!


The fact that the most down to Earth, next door neighbor, type to burst onto the national scene has been called a right-wing extremist is a lie at best! Cute and spunky are matters of less relevance but when anybody that isn't a freaking democrat is seen by the left as an extremist is it too late?


No intolerant religous extremist, religous fundamentalist or right wing nut or wingnut or bat# crazy are probably better expressions.
She believes a woman should not have a right to an abortion even in the cases of RAPE AND INCEST. Is that mainstream????
She thinks creationism should be taught in schools! Is that mainstream???
She BELIEVES the end is near and true BELIEVERS are going to float to the sky during the rapture and the rest of us are going to burn in hell. She is sure of the fact that if 144,000 jews can be converted to christianity jesus will return and the rest of the jews will burn for eternity! She believes in Noah's Ark, talking snakes and bushes you get the picture.

I guess you probably think those are mainstream views...well you would be very wrong. If Americans find out who she really is she will be history!

Where are you from man? Hell yeah, I'd say christiantity is still main stream in America! The "progressive" movement isn't that far along yet.

There are plenty of MORAL reasons to abolish Roe vs Wade. The argument does not hinge on religion. Who give anyone the right to willfully destroy more innocent people? Bush or the Pro-choice group?

And you can keep all your "sky is falling" antichrist rhetoric too!

I wonder why so many of the posters on this board are considered lunatics by the rest of Americans?

I believe you new found best friend would be a very good candidate for the anti-christ!

Hey gator do you have kids how about a daughter or a mother or sister. If some scumbag violently or savagely raped your loved one would you damn her to hell for having an abortion?? Would you want her to have the baby and raise the child?? Just curious. Now don't evade the question.

Would you want your daughter to have the baby?? Yes or No.

"I came to office promising major ethics reform to end the culture of self-dealing, and today that ethics reform is the law. While I was at it, I got rid of a few things in the Governor's Office that I didn't believe our citizens should have to pay for. That luxury jet was over the top. I put it on eBay," she said.

Of course, Palin never mentioned that though she did list the jet on eBay, she didn't sell it on eBay.

SNIP she said "I put it on ebay" she never said if it sold or not.

you guys are grasping at straws now, this is getting ridiculous..

Mod Edit:

Some people might find this hard to believe, because it's from a Government website but, I thought I'd post it anyway.

Westwind II Jet Sold to Valdez Businessman

Westwind II Jet Sold to Valdez Businessman

August 24, 2007, Juneau, Alaska – Governor Sarah Palin today announced the sale of the state’s Westwind II jet. The aircraft was sold to Valdez businessman Larry Reynolds for $2,100,000. Several attempts to sell the jet on eBay were unsuccessful.

“From the beginning of my administration, no state agencies have ever used or requested use of the jet,” said Governor Palin. “If the Department of Public Safety decides at a future date that it needs another aircraft, we will invest in something more sensible that can land on Alaska’s rural airstrips. Any purchase, if deemed necessary, will go through the normal legislative budget process.”

The jet is currently parked in a hangar in Anchorage. Reynolds is expected to take custody of the aircraft this week.

The jet was purchased for $2,692,600 in November 2005 by the Murkowski administration. Since then, the state has been paying it off at a rate of $62,492.79 per quarter. Governor Palin has never used the jet.

Look I never said it was a lie of monumental importance.

I said it was an example or sample of the type of character we should expect from Sarah Palin. She wanted to appear to be homespun and folksy. So in a very media savvy calculation she ommitted information to achieve that effect and it worked until someone checked the facts.

Recently I found another article in the LA progressive that I believe will grow in importance over the coming days.

Here is the link!


“So Sambo beat the bitch!”

This is how Republican Vice Presidential nominee Sarah Palin described Barack Obama’s win over Hillary Clinton to political colleagues in a restaurant a few days after Obama locked up the Democratic Party presidential nomination.

According to Lucille, the waitress serving her table at the time and who asked that her last name not be used, Gov. Palin was eating lunch with five or six people when the subject of the Democrat’s primary battle came up. The governor, seemingly not caring that people at nearby tables would likely hear her, uttered the slur and then laughed loudly as her meal mates joined in appreciatively.

“It was kind of disgusting,” Lucille, who is part Aboriginal, said in a phone interview after admitting that she is frightened of being discovered telling folks in the “lower 48” about life near the North Pole.



Granted the story has not been independently verified but we are just at the start of getting to know Sarah Palin.
