Picking someone like this bimbo to be the future pResident (when McSame kicks the bucket) is one of the most irresponsible actions I have ever seen. She was involved in all kinds of shady deals including using her power to protect the guilty, for the bridge to no where and thinks the VP position is to help AK. Help, save me from McSame and totally evil Grand Oil Party and the completely ignorant American people (with apologies to the fellow liberals and progressives)

...and what "legislative experience" does this woman have both at the state level and the federal level? huh?

And don''t embarrass yourself with some stupid talking point about "executive experience" for 18 months as governor who has less population then most cities.

And reforming the PTA is not presidential qualifications either. Sorry to bust your bubble.

PALIN REPEATEDLY LAUGHS AS CANCER SURVIVOR OPPONENT CALLED NASTY NAMES

LISTEN TO HER LAUGH on YouTube Audio HERE:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j9AIDRGzUAw

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AKkydrUnBZE

-------

Early THIS year, an op-ed in the Anchorage Daily News ripped into Gov. Sarah Palin''s appearance (1/15/08) on a morning "shock jock" radio show ("The Bob and Mark Show") as "plain and simple one of the most unprofessional, childish and inexcusable performances I''ve ever seen from a politician."

Palin has feuded with State Senate president, Lyda Green, over a wide range of legislation.

Lester referred to Sen. Green as a jealous woman and a cancer.

PALIN knows full well Lyda Green is a CANCER SURVIVOR, but didn''t do what any decent person would do, say, "Bob, that''s going too far."

Lester questioned Green''s motherhood, asking Palin if Green cares about her own kids.

PALIN LAUGHS.

Then Lester says, "Lyda Green is a cancer and a b*tch."

PALIN LAUGHS for the second time.

What were teenage boys and girls thinking when they heard the governor laugh at someone being called a b*tch? How about the teenage girls who look up to Palin? What did they think as she laughed?

But there is more. Lester then describes Green''s chair as big and cushy. A clear reference to the senator''s weight.

PALIN LAUGHS a third time.

Palin clearly enjoyed Lester''s vicious attack on Lyda Green. Then she says she''s "honored" by Lester and invites him to her official State of Alaska speech.

Palin only got 48% in the race for Governor-

McSame smear machine claims she has 80% approval rating in Alaska--

Wonder what the approval rating will be after this disaster- I can''t she why she needs the Government to pay for her attorney- and the pregnancy--

Reality check to McCain: Boy you messed up this one!

The whole world is laughing....

Too bad she is know for fighting corruption and has a 80 percent approval ratting. This wont even be a story by wed and Obama Bin Biden will be behind McCain Palin by this weekend in the polls!

that so-called 80% approval rating out of 700 thousand people is equivalent to the number of people in Rhode Island that Obama got during the primaries.

Come on, you can do better then that.

And her fight against corruption was actually her misuse of power in "BABY=GATE".

Palin looks like she comes fully qualified to lead the nation.

She''''s already passed that key GOP requirement - corruption!

She has kids running the streets getting knocked-up and one kid away from the "public dole".

She has no experience except how to put on a bathing suit and make-up for a beauty contest.

She knows nothing about foreign policy except that her state of less then 700,000 people is the closest one to Russia.

Give me a break!

This woman is overwhelmingly unqualified to be Vice President!

Why did Palin preach "hatred of America" for the last 20 years by attending these radical "Alaska Sucession" meetings?

McCain needs to rithink this one...seriously....

She attends a radical succession movement "Free Alaska"

She has kids running the streets getting knocked-up and one kid away from the "public dole".

She has no experience except how to put on a bathing suit and make-up for a beauty contest.

She knows nothing about foreign policy except that her state of less then 700,000 people is the closest one to Russia.

Give me a break!

"We have been hired to represent the Governor and the Governor''s Office" in the investigation, Anchorage attorney Thomas V. Van Flein wrote.

---

So TAXPAYER MONEY is being used to defend Palin against malfeasance in office and BEFORE SHE WAS IN OFFICE?

Can you say, "Criminal misuse of public funds."

PALIN and "ALASKA INDEPENDENCE PARTY"

The Alaskan Independence Party (AIP) believes:
-- Alaskans must vote for secession from the United States (can you say "49 states"?)
-- That "the vote for Alaskan statehood was invalid"
-- ALL environmental regulation should be eliminated
-- All government lands should be turned over to private parties
-- THE MAJOR PARTIES MUST BE "INFILTRATED" TO OBTAIN ALASKAN INDEPENDENCE

WHAT IS THE EXTENT OF PALIN''S RELATIONSHIP TO THE AIP?

Palin belonged to the AIP before she decided to seek higher office.

The AIP supported Palin for Governor.

AIP Vice Chairman of the AIP, Dexter Clark revealed this year:
"the one we were hoping would get elected, Sarah Palin, did get elected. ... And there was a lot of talk about her moving up. She was an AIP member before she got the job as a mayor of a small town, that was a non-partisan job. But you get along to go along, she eventually joined the Republican Party

Sarah Palin recorded a nice message to the AIP Convention this year, saying that the party "plays an important role in our state''s politics" and that "we have a great promise to be a self-sufficient state."

Is Sarah Palin a radical Alaskan secessionist? She certainly believes in them, and she belonged to their party before it became politically expedient for her to join the Republicans...

Governor Murkowski appointed Palin to the Alaska Oil and Gas Conservation Commission, where she chaired the Commission from 2003 to 2004, and also served as Ethics Supervisor.[28] Palin resigned in January 2004 in protest over what she called the "lack of ethics" of fellow Republican members.[29][7][30]

After resigning, Palin filed formal complaints against the state Republican Party''s chairman, Randy Ruedrich,[31] and former Alaska Attorney General Gregg Renkes.[32] She accused Ruedrich, one of her fellow commissioners, of doing work for the party on public time and working closely with a company he was supposed to be regulating. Ruedrich and Renkes both resigned and Ruedrich paid a record US$12,000 fine

"Hey CBS you stupid f_cks. Do your homework instead of parroting innacuracies.
Palin did not hire an attorney. Alaska''''s Attorney General, in his official capacity as an officer of the state, hired a lawyer to represent the Governor and the Governor''''s office. That''''s a far cry from Palin''''s hiring an attorney to represent herself personally.
Get the facts straight and report the truth!"

EARMARK GATE

A governor that encourages use of an opportune political environment to push an earmark, spends the money on other projects, claims to be a reformer for canceling the project(but used the money), and builds a road that ends at an empty beach.

From Anchorage Daily News on October 22, 2006
5. %u201CWould you continue state funding for the proposed Knik Arm and Gravina Island bridges?%u201D

%u201CYes. I would like to see Alaska''''s infrastructure projects built sooner rather than later. The window is now--while our congressional delegation is in a strong position to assist.%u201D

From Anchorage Daily News on August 31, 2008

The Alaska governor campaigned in 2006 on a build-the-bridge platform, telling Ketchikan residents she felt their pain when politicians called them "nowhere." They''''re still feeling pain today in Ketchikan, over Palin''''s subsequent decision to use the bridge funds for other projects -- and over the timing of her announcement, which they say came in a pre-dawn press release that seemed aimed at national news deadlines.

"I think that''''s when the campaign for national office began," said Ketchikan Mayor Bob Weinstein on Saturday.

Meanwhile, Weinstein noted, the state is continuing to build a road on Gravina Island to an empty beach where the bridge would have gone -- because federal money for the access road, unlike the bridge money, would have otherwise been returned to the federal government.
