The fact is you took her quote out of context as pointed out by Beachwood Mac! You made it seem as if she said.. "YES let's go to war and I mean TOMORROW!!!"

And I never said I stopped being a Republican. Silly boy.. just because I don't agree with Bush doesn't mean I've turned into Andrew Sullivan.

Well I suppose there were some Jewish folks who even voted for Hitler when he ran for Chancellor in 1932.

If you truly believe Obama is for "Change" you wouldn't stoop to the level of Karl Rove and friends by posting things you know are absurd. You are doing exactly what the Republicans want you to do. The issues should decide this election. Are we all that desperate? Be better than that.
Then I guess this is way out of line:



Lighten up BMac. Even you would have to admit there is something fishy with the Trig Palin story?

Don't delete it. We're talking. It's not like we're trying to run the New York Times here. We're asking if there's a grain of truth to this. Big deal.

That's too bad. His metamorphosis has been something to witness.

I didn't rule out that some of it could not be true..really nothing I could learn about this individual would surprise me at this point..I am just shocked and disappointed that so many are buying into her little down home and folksy image without taking a real look at her extreme views and intimidation tactics like the ones cited in the article about her wanting to fire the librarian and ban books ..Scary stuff indeed.

That was another false story. The person who said she was a member of the Alaskan Independence Party later apologized for giving false information.

Think Clark deposited that cash yet

In the end, even if Palin was not there, she is still a religious freak to these peepers.

On edit:

read this clarification, which is not exactly a withdrawal (no pun intended) (emphasis supplied)

Most recently I have pulled the entire record regarding the Alaskan Independence Partys' 1994 Convention file. I went through all the video, audio and paper records for that function. Something I should have done earlier before making the statement that Governor Palin was a member of the Alaskan Independence Party. For that I humbly apologize to Governor Palin, and, to both national and local press, and media.

I, foolishly, repeated and accepted as fact what an officer of this membership shared with myself, and husband Dexter Clark, over a year ago. My statement was incorrect regarding the Governor's membership. What was correct was that Todd Palin was a member, that Sarah as a candidate for Governor appeared at the AIP Convention in 2006, and sent a welcoming DVD to the membership at the 2008 AIP statewide convention. Those truths do not take away my fault in mis-speaking regarding her membership. For that I do take full responsibility. I hold Governor Palin in high regard, I believe she is far and away the best individual Alaska could have as Governor, and as a woman, mother and wife is one of the best examples walking!

Thank you and again, I apologize to all.

Lynette Clark, Chairman
Alaskan Independence Party
September 3, 2008


So, let's see SP's husband was a member of the succ. party and SP spoke at their convention. Think she knows Rev. Wright

Note -- the sarcasm is generally directed and not focused on VK

In the interview, which you must not have watched, she was asked if she would like Unkraine and Georgia to be included and she said yes. Try watching the interview before commenting on it. LOL! Some of us are disappointed in Bush because he ran to the right of where he actually was. I'd LOVE someone more right than Bush. And, no, I won't regret it.
Also, your little speedle the other day about how Palin was saying stuff that sounded like Muslim extremists, such as being on a mission from God, etc. You might want to do a quote check, because she quoted Lincoln. Now, you might want to take your comment back unless you want to call FDR, JFK and Lincoln all religious wackos as they made similar statements.

Yea -- well, none of them to my knowledge ever fired a public librarian because they said they would not ban a book based on the ideals of a public official
