| The Ghost of RubangB said: I didn't call it the People's Republic of Alaska. That was a quote from the article. I only added the part at the bottom about my tiny stimulus package 10% the size of theirs. I take it they got stimulus packages as well even though they don't need it. They don't even have a sales tax up there. It's weird that McCain picked a veep that comes from the state that has no idea we're in an economic crisis and won't be able to help at all. Palin is a horrible choice for McCain and she supports the windfall tax that Obama supports and McCain opposes. Palin's economic experience is "drill for oil, tax the oil, drill for oil, tax the oil" and that's it. The oil is over 80% of the Alaskan economy and she hasn't had to make a decision about money that doesn't evolve oil in her life. Horrible choice for somebody who could be in the White House possibly making a real decision once or twice. It's no wonder some crazy Alaskans want to secede so they can keep all the oil to themselves, because the Union is holding them back with its bullshit ideas about "endangered species" and "global warming." Palin's church thinks Alaska is so rich in natural resources because it is going to be an important place in the coming RAPTURE. So awesome. I can't wait for her speech either. |
1) Palin sued the Bush Administration for not putting Polar Bears on the endangered species list. I dont agree with that, but it shows that her gubernatorial administration does care about enviromental issues.
2)As asinine as her church's beliefs may be it doesnt have any bearing on her candidacy since they are not political rantings. Now Jeremiah Wright's teachings since the are not biblical/spirtual and are radically political then they play a legitimate role in the debate if a candidate subscribes to such teachings.
