Wow Howard L, it sounds like you knew the boy personally before this. You know how many Liberal politicians daughters have gotton knocked up?? Hell no you don't know because they get them to an abortion clinic within a month and have the little scandal "removed" before it can cause any back lash. Anyone can kill a baby to save face, it takes a real woman to stand up and be a mommy. By the way, do you think she is the first 17 year old to have sex??? HAHA HAHA you are a moron. All this baby proves to me is Palin practices what she preaches, she could have forced her to murder her baby, but she is against abortion. Practicing what she preaches, dang now THAT is change in Washington.

Liberal- a person so open minded their brain fell out

It was kind of a cheap shot, attacking her personal situation - even though when Bill Clinton was getting sucked off in the Oval Office by an intern all the Dems were crying "stay out of his personal life".

Geez, I'm sounding all Republican here, and I don't really care for either side.

And your explanation is not very accurate. You didn't say every woman (or man) has to evaluate their own personal situation. You made a number of sarcastic comments implying that you didn't think she could do both jobs, and that she had poor judgment in taking on the nomination. Why? Because she's a Republican, and that's your red flag. Did you feel the same way about Hillary?

The woman is already governor of Alaska. That's probably a bit more responsibility already than whatever job you're doing (certainly more than mine). So, I doubt you know half the stress.

Standard operations for any state is to accept federal dollars into their general fund. (That's the only place it could go) This fund is for roads and schools as well as many other things. There's nothing to prove. If she kept the money (which I don't dispute) that's where it would HAVE to go.
The reason I say feminism has nothing to do with empowering women. It only serves to advance liberalism is because the feminist movement doesn't allow for women like Sarah Palin in their fold. She is a strong conservative woman therefore she must be attacked. Go and read anything written about her by any number of feminist groups out there and it's very easy to see. Condi is another great example. I've read countless amazing things demeaning her out there. She is someone the feminists despise. I've even heard them say she is a hermaphrodite. She made it on her own using conservative values therefore she doesn't fit the template.

As far as "troopergate" Walt Monegan the Public Safety Commissioner for Alaska refused to fire a state trooper who happened to be Palins former brother in-law. The rest of the story is always conveniently left out. Mike Wooten was the trooper in question. He was put on a 5 day suspension after he tasered his 10 year old step-son and issued death threats against Palins father several times. The safety commissioner serves at the pleasure of the governor and she was well within her rights(if not duties) to fire Monegan over this as well as many other reasons. Only a 5 day suspension and a returning to duty after tasering a 10 year old boy? What would you say if that was your son?

I'm by no means completely happy with Palin I've got a list of gripes with her. You're just barking at all the wrong ones.

Doesn’t it scare you that a person with significant lack of qualifications has been nominated for the Presidency of the United States? I’ll tell you, it sure as hell scares me. (Obama)

(yes I did read that second article (letter) on snopes It's hardly relevant to any of the points I've made. I wont argue that she's been perfect for my state. I have several gripes of my own. Several within that letter I'd agree with.

My only point was that no posts have been made about Palin getting the VP slot, but tons about the Messiah.

That's a bit retrograde.

Then he got back from the war and married Celeste. And Celeste would remind him regularly that he had the wrong name on his arm. Not that he needed the reminder, but she was happy to offer it, especially when she wasn't happy with him for whatever reason.

So I would say that getting a tattoo with the name of an empty suit like Obama on it is as bad an idea as voting for the empty suit. Which is to say it's a really, really bad idea. So, please; don't do either.

Oh, and the tattoo? Sucks. Get a nice skull instead.

Not getting involved in the mudslinging. Not today.

Also you need to learn about sarcasm... of course the feminists won't support her. She's conservative. Feminism has nothing to do with empowering women. It only serves to advance liberalism.

She isn't against stem cell research, She is against government money for "embryonic" stem cell research. If you have to kill a fetus to do research than I'm against it too. You can gather as many stem cells from the afterbirth as you need. No reason to abort a fetus just to harvest it's cells. (again how compassionate of you)

The money for the bridge to nowhere did stay in the states general fund (the same fund used to improve roads and build schools (Aren't liberals always saying we need to spend more money for the children?) Every state uses federal funds for these same things. The fact that she wised up before the project got too far should be a good thing. She was one of the main people shutting it down.

We could go on and on, but I think you get the idea.

Sorry to confuse you with the facts.

@Dianne: Do you know that all politicians have speechwriters? Live and learn.

Why is it that everyone who hates Palin is so ignorant? I guess it's because they have to be.

Green, let's take it even farther. SP believes creationism should be taught in schools. SP was for the bridge to no where before she was against it. But she did keep the $250+ million dollars in earmark money for the state. She is in favor of hunting bears, wolves, and other animals by shooting said animals from a low flying airplane. She is against stem cell research. We could go on and on, but I think you get the idea.
Neilo, what kind of convoluted, twisted logic would make you think feminists would support Palin just because Clinton isn't on the D's ticket? I guess you're today's living character from Orwell, since you seem to believe that up is down, black is white.

I posted it earlier(accidentally said Mike) but I got flagged for moderation, I think because I used the word "vagina"
