Sarah Palin can’t be trusted to lead

Sarah Palin is taking off the gloves and punching Sen. Obama for associating with a radical from the 1960s who did his deeds when Obama was eight years old!
Is this the same Sarah Palin who sleeps with and has had children with a man who advocates that Alaska secede from the United States? Didn’t we fight a civil war over that issue? Didn’t 700,000
Americans die in that civil war because some states thought they had the right to do what Gov. Palin’s husband proposes? Did the husband of the Republican vice presidential candidate advocate an
illegal act?
But isn’t the larger question that since her husband proposed and believes in the secession of Alaska from the U.S., he must not think that the U.S. is good enough for him and his family?
Would we elect a vice president, married to a man who says that the United States is not good enough for him?
Oh, that’s right, he is no longer a member of that party. He conveniently quit at the right time since it is tough to get elected mayor of Wasilla and then governor of Alaska when you are married to a
person who says that the United States of America is not good enough for him.
But what does Todd Palin the secessionist really think about the United States, and how might he influence his wife as vice president of the United States?
What does she really think about her country when her husband thinks so little of the United States that he advocated secession by Alaska?
What she says and what she does appear to be two different things as she continues to be married to a man who is on record as advocating for Alaskan secession from the United States.

anonmom: I am practicing to attend a Mccain-Palin hate, vaudeville, or burlesque political rally. I want to be able to shout “kill hium”, “someone get that n*****“, to be able to incite to riot, to tell some big lies, to hate, to see a pig with lipstick, perhaps to watch her “strip” for SNL, to observe McCain’s mental health (or lack thereof), to see Joe the Plumber, to hear Palin the joke tell some jokes, and to watch die-hard Republicans scream with deLight in their ignorance. Know where I can get tickets to the “show”?

phdee, you have the kind of rage that I would describe as scary. You seriously need a life, something a little more meaningful than screaming at total strangers. It’s not healthy.

This from the News & Messenger: “Colin Powell expressed disappointment in the negative tone of McCain’s campaign, his choice of Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin as a running mate and McCain’s and Palin’s decision to focus in the closing weeks of the contest on Obama’s ties to 1960s-era radical William Ayers.“
That about sums up all we need to know about Sarah Palin’s qualifications for office.

G&G;. I obviously mispelled the word. Second “s” should have been “c”. Let’s not play dumb - you got the message.

ejben.. I don’t have an anger problem at all. If you think I need help, then perhaps I could go along with you to your treatment to see howmthings are going and how you are doing. Your problem it appears is that you just don’t like anyone else’s opinion unless it agree with yours, wjat I call a bigot - i.e obstinate in viewpoint. It is not necessary for me to provide “proof” for my opinions. Your ignorance on opinions just shows, as proof, how bigoted you are.
You fail to cite ONE thing that I have written is wrong. What’s the matter? Unable to? Or afraid it can easily be rebutted. Just more Repub wild allegations on nearly everything plus tons of lies.

Boy,phdee you need to go get treatment for all your anger.
You spout and spout but there’s no truth in what you say.
You can’t prove one thing you have been spouting. So get off of it and go get help.
You will be glad you did.

Once again, I must consider the source and treat it appropriately.
BTW, how do you “do sesession”?

GF&G;are again trying to defend the Palins. There is absolutely nothing wrong with the LTE and “connections”.
(1) Some Southern DID do sesession.
(2) It depends whom you ask or what you read as to the cause of the civil war.
(3) The Palin man evidently DID bring up the secessation of Alaska.
(4) ANY state cxould today bring up secession, despite how far bak the civil war occurred, this it is relevant.
Clearly the LTE makes an excellent point in question the loyalty and patriotism of both Palins. After all, that entire family is dysfunctional.
Your argument presented is laughable and ignorant.

Mr. Wiatrowski’s rambling letter left me wondering exactly what his point was. He discharged both barrels at his subject, but failed to score any hits.
Pulling the subject of the Civil War into the well-worn and tiring Palin debate is a strange move. I thought that slavery and state’s rights were the root causes of the Civil War, not secession. With Alaska not even a state at that time, the reference seems odd.
I suspect the writer had an ax to grind, and just set about throwing down whatever thoughts he could get to stick to the paper. There’s a lot of anger here, but not much logic. It has the effect of being written by one who has ingested a mental laxative of sorts.
I hope Mr. Wiatrowski feels much better after his “movement”.

Sarah Palin is nothing more than SNL fodder and come November 5th, her 15 (long) minutes of fame will be over.
That a vice presidential candidate would appear on a comedy show just days before the election shows how much effort Palin is giving to the McCain campaign. She missed an opportunity to rally the troops in Woodbridge yesterday to promote herself and her personal agenda.
America would be better off with Tina Fey playing Sarah Palin than Sarah Palin herself.
