Who cares, she’s a nut. My lord the media just continues to give her a platform. I get that she is the gift that keeps on giving to those of us who have a brain but a book deal? A potential radio show? Yikes!

This woman is through with America yet. She has bigger ambitions like the White House. If she gets to be US President, she will face rallies and demonstrations as she tries to shove gay people around and while she stamps out the environment from sea to not-so-shining sea and throws our national parks and our wildlife to the dogs, so to speak.

Interesting how antigay and antienvironment often go hand in hand with these horrid people.

She quit because of the probes, etc rendered her ineffective as a governor. But we all know that she is at the same time shifting gears into US Presidential or other higher politican ambitions where she can damage this country beyond Alaska’s borders. And a male political twin of Palin, Parnell (who vows to take Alaska farther down the path of destruction that Palin blazed for him) is nothing but more of the same. So Alaska is not really rid of Palin in that sense since the only thing that has changed are the names and gender of Alaska governor.

Does this mean that Sarah Palin, beset by all sorts of financial and ethics scandals and investigations, is “abandoning her post” (the people of Alaska) to seek out a more ego rewarding position? Hmmm…not the kind of person I would ever trust in public office. Straight or not.
(Just remember to emphasize “the scandals” and “abandoning her post(s)” whenever mentioning her name. The message will get out.)

petenick: US Politicians generally don’t respond to emails from constituents because they get so many of them. If you even get a response, it’s more than likely going too be in a prefabricated, auto-response form.

Physical, ink and paper letters are much more likely to actually get read by the person who they’re sent to. (Although the probability of that drops as well as the rank of the politician goes up.)

Well, I detest the “dimbo bimbo” but she’ll be back (just like malaria, she NEVER goes away)

On the bright sied, she is the BEST the right has to offer right now. (thank GOD for that)

She has lots of venom left to spread. She’s dangerous because she has no conscience, and she constantly changes the mix of right-wing ideology and self-interest so that you can’t always pinpoint her position. If the GOP has anybody left who’s not insane, they need to do everything possible to keep her from any significant influence in any political or political/cultural setting. This is a woman who really does not care who she hurts, and she’s out to hurt. She’s so aggressive that sometimes I’ve wondered just what sense of inadequacy is it that propels her.

Good Riddance to Cruella, until we see her on Faux News.

When Ms. Palin says she will stand for truth and against those who are “making things up”, she forgets that one group that deliberately lies and makes things up to spread fear and hate is the religious right. She has gotten plenty of campaign support and funding from that group too. As much as I hate to use the term, the TRUTH is that she has hired herself out as a POLITICAL WHORE to those who spread hate as well as those corporate and other interests who do those things that rob future generations of a clean and healthy planet.

fr petenick:

>…I e-mailed her last year when she said that her lesbian friend chose to be gay! I told her that I knew that I was gay when I was 4 years old. She never answered back!<

I’m not the least bit surprised.
