The theocracy thing keeps coming to mind ... today's news includes a clip of Palin attended a strange ritual, where their Christian Warriors are given samurai swords as part of a graduation ... lots of passages about the Lord giving his servants a sword to use to inflict vengence and punishment in the world. Ordinarily, it might be written off as just symbolism, but combined with the other theocratic statements that came from that church, it is not reassuring. Joel's Army is assembling.

theres a difference, he misspoke, its not like he sat around later "what, there arent 7 additional states? Curbnuntix, Halparion, Eastern California... theyre all fake?"

all ive heard about palin's africa mistake is that "awwww its so cute. everyone mistakes africa for being a country! its a common mistake! shes so charming tho!"

one thing is being tired. another is simply not knowing.
if obama started to NAME those 7 additional states, then i'd be worried.
strange w the specific 7 tho... i an attempted explanation to the mistake, but his people cut him off. if i had someone hired to cut me off, i'd f'ing fire them on the goddamn spot.

If I remember correctly, the whole Africa thing was from bitter unnamed aids from the doomed McCain/Palin campaign after the election. There wasn't any video of it or anything. So the whole validity of it is in question to me. I think it's probably along the same lines as the Obama is a secret muslim, Hilary Clinton killed Vince Foster, the Sarah Palin covered up her daughters pregnancy as her own myths.

I don't understand why people feel the need to smear politicians, there is so much legitimate criticism.

she shoots wolves from airplanes. why? you can't eat them. it just seems like torture--they don't have a chance and the hunting tactics are not fair.

then again: the beauty queen answers to really important questions have a certain charm. (i do believe i am being sarcastic.)

She is

1) Homophobic
2) Completely Pro-Life
3) Wants American industries to pollute as much as they want. Even if they make several creatures instinct, Depute all resources and farther more destroy this planet.
4) Legalized air-assault of wild animals in alaska.
5) Can't keep her damn mouth shut as well as can't answer a question correctly? E.G- During the 2008 Campaign Plalin just rambles on about Obama hanging out with terriosts. Like Bill Aryes was really a terriost.
6) Is downright DUMB
7) Is Neo-Fascist and wants to get rid of all government programs except ones that enforce Judo-Christianity amongst americans.
8)Get rid of freedom of speech, religion as well as wants to furthermore enforce that PATRIOT ACT.
9) Is a compulsive liar and deceiver
10) Can't even finish 1 term as governor
11) Turn this nation to a complete military state.

I admit John McCain is probably one of the BEST politicians we have had in years. Served his country well, has americas best interest at heart and well one of my political idols. However picking Palin as a VP was a stupid mistake.

However this is coming from someone with Centrist political beliefs as well as somebody of the older generation Eisenhower-Nixon Republicans.

I don't know what kind of ax you're grinding, ruveyn, but you're obviously not that dumb. I'm not particularly impressed with Obama either but for good reasons.

Quote:
Sarah Palin snorted cocaine off a 55 gallon oil drum while snowmobiling with friends and had illicit affairs with a top NBA star and one of her husband's business partners, a new book sensationally claims.In revelations which could strike a devastating blow to the controversial politician's hopes of joining the 2012 presidential race, Mrs Palin is said to have taken the class A drug with her husband, while smoking marijuana at college in secret liaisons with one of her professors.

Joe McGinniss's book The Rogue: Searching for the Real Sarah Palin, which is due to be published on September 20, also alleges that the former governor of Alaska is far from the traditional family woman she claims to be.

Mrs Palin, 47, had a one-night stand with Miami Heat basketball star Glen Rice less than a year before she eloped with her husband, the book claims.
She is said to have met the 6ft 8ins player in 1987 when he was playing in a college basketball tournament in Alaska and she worked as a sports reporter for KTUU television.
It is also claimed that she had a six-month affair with Brad Hanson, who ran a snowmobile dealership with her husband Todd - a betrayal which led to Todd dissolving their business.
In a bid to expose Mrs Palin's skeletons, Mr McGinness has studied the former vice presidential candidate for three years and last year even moved in to a home next door in Wasilla, Alaska, to dig some more.

The author writes that after college Mrs Palin developed a 'fetish' for black men.
She allegedly had a tryst with basketball star Glen Rice in her younger sister Molly's University of Alaska dorm room, while she was dating Todd and just nine months before the couple were married.
Six months: Palin is said to have had an affair with Brad Hanson, one of her husband's colleagues
Mrs Palin got pregnant with Todd and they eloped in August 1988.
Their son Track, the oldest of five, was born eight months later in April 1989.

A friend said Mrs Palin spent the night with the basketball star but could not confirm whether they had sex, according to the National Enquirer.
'I remember Sarah feeling pretty good that she'd been with a black basketball star,' a source told the magazine.
The athlete is said to have confirmed the night of passion in Mr McGinniss's book.
Mr Rice went on to have a huge career playing basketball in the NBA and was a three-timer All-Star.
The book goes on to claim that while married Mrs Palin also had an affair with one of her husband's business partners.
Todd is alleged to have ended all dealings with Brad Hanson after he found out about the secret six-month relationship in 1996.
Both Mrs Palin and Mr Hanson have denied the allegations.
Perhaps most damaging of all could be the suggestion that the supposed traditional all American mother has taken drugs.

Before she was elected governor she is also said to have snorted cocaine with her husband off an overturned oil drum while snowmobiling with friends.
Todd, who was arrested for driving drunk in 1986 used cocaine a lot and was 'on the end of a straw plenty,'
according to a long-term associate quoted in the book.

The explosive book goes on to quote those who knew the family growing up, claiming Mrs Palin was a 'bad mum' who would lock herself in her room for hours on end asking not to be disturbed while her children cooked themselves dinner.
Sarah Palin was plucked from obscurity to be the Republican vice presidential candidate in 2008.
The 'pitbull in lipstick' sparked a media storm after accepting the nomination, despite questions over her experience.
But she wowed the U.S. after a barn-storming speech in September 2008 in which she attacked critics for calling her 'small town'.
A former mayor of Wasilla before she became governor of Alaska, Palin stepped down after the Republican defeat in the presidential election.
The mother-of-five has remained tight-lipped on whether she would stand next year, but said she would likely make an announcement at the end of this month.
She has been overshadowed in recent months by Tea Party candidates including Michelle Bachmann.
The Republican, who has now associated herself with the Tea Party movement in the U.S., has been dogged by scandal since being selected as Senator John McCain's running mate in 2007.
There have also been frequent rumours that she is set to divorce her husband Todd, which have always been denied.
And she has faced accusations by the father of her daughter's child, Levi Johnston, that she wanted to keep Bristol's pregnancy a secret and adopt the child herself.
Palin has yet to declare whether she intends to run for election in next year's presidential race.
Joe McGinniss, 68, has written several political books including works on former president Richard Nixon and on Alaska.
