It’s certainly hard to convince people of the complicity of rethug lies.

Alaskans are independent? Aren’t they the ones living off the Exxon/Mobil tit?

If you would read mudflats or other Alaskan blogs, you might know, well, anything.

Granted but make them persona non grata in the U.S.. Make it so they can never set foot in the U.S.. There’s a guy in my hometown who is a billionaire that moved to some Carribean nation because he refused to pay taxes in the U.S.. His factory that is still here should be seized and nationalized. Like you said, given his wealth he could care less.

It really is unbelievable that Alaskans, espcially the AIP, have not begun to react to mccain’s people running their state. Maybe Alaskans are not really as independent as they like to portray themselves. As long as the repugs spout the rhetoric that Alaskans like to hear, the repugs actions may be exactly opposite without raising a comment.

They could care less what passport they have. Most of their wealth is offshore in tax havens and sheltered.

The first act of an Obama administration should be to raise the tax rate on the top 1% to 75-90%. Bernie Sanders said on Friday that 400 families in the U.S. have increased their wealth by 640 billion dollars since Bush took office. That’s 400 families, 640 billion dollars. If they are unwilling to pay then seize their assets and exile them from the U.S..

This palin pick was all hat and no cattle and the world has figured that one out in a few weeks. She’s nothing but trailer trash who charmed her way into government to rip off the feds and live high off the tax payers. She’s dumber than a fence post and she appeals to that segment of the population who identifies with being a fence posts… fundies and hunters on the tundra who want to ski mobile the lives away on petrol! She’s not executive timber.. she’s fence post timber!

Bad move by McCain. But then again he’s brain dead practically speaking and the world is seeing that too. Who wants a senile old fart and some trailer trash in the white house? It will (or should be) a landslide.

Give them some more rope and they will hang themselves. The “debates” could be a hoot.

I just saw a McCain ad warning about how Obama will respond to the economic crisis with big government and massive spending. Hee hee! I guess it’s hard to keep the ads on track with the whiplash changes in McCain’s “sincerely held beliefs”…

Futile as the request may be, we encourage Gov. Palin to stand up to McCain’s handlers and be personally accountable for her administration’s response to Troopergate. She is the governor of Alaska, not John McCain or Ed O’Callaghan.

Apparently she can stand up only to subordinates. But bends over for those above her!
