But the Panama Canal Zone WAS a part of the United States in 1936. Just like all Filipinos born between 1930 and 1946 * hold US citizenship, anyone born in the Panama Canal Zone between 1930 and 1999 * has US citizenship.


* Residents of US territories and possessions gained US citizenship via the Insular Act of 1930, Puerto Ricans gained citizenship earlier via the Jones Act of 1917.

1) she claims to be Christian but is a vengeful jerk

How so?

2) hunting from a copter is COWARDLY and she doesn't even use the meat.

Does she do the hunting herself?

3) she has one of the worst environmental records of any American politician

Really?

4) her knowledge of national security doesn't go beyond being able to "see Russia from her backyard"

Misquoted

5) she has the most annoying VOICE i have ever heard

And that makes her bad? How?

6) she supports the war in Iraq

Does she?

7) "drill baby drill"

I am with her on that one.

Me too!

I suspect many of you would wish THE PRESIDENT did the same...

Am I lying?

At least Ol Frankenstein is honest!

The thing that keeps me scratching my head is why do the Democrats in (total) power feel the need to keep bringing her up and making jabs at her? Are they really that afraid of her?

I'm from Florida, and grow weary of the damned ignorance on what happened here in 2000.

For you whining idiots who either don't remember, or don't know, the problem was not with Jeb Bush.

Florida is split into two time zones.

The dumbass, liberal media called the election an hour before our polls in WEST Florida even closed.

This area is very conservative, we don't like candiass liberal Presidential candidates, and we had yet to vote.

The media had already called it.

NOW, the actual votes come in and guess what?

Bush won. Clearly, definitively WON.

But the media stirred up the stuff in the bottom of the outhouse, and so we had to RECOUNT!

They just couldn't believe it! They couldn't ACCEPT it!

So they dragged this crap out forever and another three days, and it still ended up just like it actually happened - Bush won!

So get over it, and for God's sake - quit repeating stupid, uninformed crap from the extreme left.

If you eliminate voter fraud, we might have a different President than we currently have.

Oh . . . I spent a lot of time in Alaska as an Arctic Ranger, Company O, 75th Infantry, and anyone with any knowledge at all knows that there are more helicopters and small planes per capita in Alaska than any other state.

Many places you can't get to but by air. You fly in Alaska unless you're staying near the municipal areas. Try driving from Anchorage to Nome. Or Kotzebue. Or Bethel to Fairbanks.

It can't be done.

On a clear day, just outside Anchorage on the Chugach peaks overlooking the city, you can see Mount McKinley/Denali 160 mile away. How far can you see something in your state?

You don't fly, you don't see many places in Alaska.

Moose are big, dumb pests that because of their size, Liberal brain equivalence, and short temperament are hunted for food.

A couple Moose can get a family through the winter.

Palin is a hell of a woman, one to ride the river with, an accomplished woman, and not a pretentious bitch like I see so frequently here on ATS. Even God loves a woman who can shoot, butcher, and prepare her own food.

I'd take her over many women I've seen over the years who bitch when it's too warm, whine when it's too cold, freak out when they break a nail, and have the audacity to criticize a real woman.

I guarantee you, when the going got tough and push comes to shove, Sarah Palin would be the woman most men would select to share the hard times with.

Whether they'd admit it to their women or not.

And of course that doesn't include men who wear their short backwards. Even candiasses don't like being shown up by a woman.
