Sarah Palin

[MrDucky]

Never been into politic's before , Im turning 39 years old this saturday , Im getting registered to vote . Im not voting as a Demorcrat or a Republican , Im voting with my heart and beliefs

I know as much about politic's as a rainbow trout .

Obama Scares me , lie after lie after lie . I cannot belive he sat in a church 20 years with a HATE Mongoring pastor , the same pastor married he and his wife

He Appoligized for us to other countries , I did not ask him too , IM NOT ASHAMED TO BE AN AMERICAN ....

His veiw on our war , he will not admit we our becoming victorius

Our United States Armed Forces our hero's and i think obama would like to supply them with rubber bullets

I think he actully thinks he is the chosen one from god to be our president , I know hearing things on the twisted media , they say there are groups saying that he has been reincarnated to become our next president and that if he is not elected , WE OUR TURNING OURSELVES AWAY FROM GOD

He has ties to William Aryes , Who says he wished he could of done more terroristic stuff

I have 2 son's , They see me leave to work every morning at 5:00 am and not returning untill late afternoon or evening . you know i enjoy being able to work and not being on welfare . Obama seems to be all for welfare , all for giving everyone help . I think if he were to elected i stand a great chance of losing my job . He has mentioned rasing the taxes to small bussiness owners . that would put alot of us out of a job

America is built on hard workers , People becoming sucsessful in there lives , i dont think its fair to Tax them higher because they our more sucsseful then I

I am voting for McCain/Palin - IT just feels right

Either way whoever is elected to office i will stand behind them . i have too IM A PROUD AMERICAN

The old adage goes; We fear what we don't know. Or something like that anyway. I can tell by your post there Ducky, you must be trembling in your waders.

I keep trying to stay out of all of this, BUT as far as Obama's group invading Alaska and doing a little dirt digging.....My friends in Alaska said the media flowed into town the day of the announcement. One reporter went to Palin's church and was asking the congregation if she was really a member and really attended church. No one knows much about her down here and she is interesting. She is news.

The media was digging for dirt right away. I am not aware of anyone claiming to be Obama supporters digging for dirt up there. I am sure it happens.

It is America and you get to vote for who you want to. I wish we could just get accurate info about the candidates, their plan for the country, and how they stand on certain issues.

Except for some media twists, you get what you see with Palin. She was on the PTA when the mayor of Wasilla used city funds to pave his own driveway. This made her angry and she ran for mayor. She barely won the first term and won by a landslide the second term.

Most everyone knows she ran for Governor when she was unhappy with then Governor Murkowski and some of his actions. She now enjoys a great approval rating (not with law enforcement though).

Gosh I forgot my point. I started rambling. Oh yeah......I have some good informants in Anchorage and Wasilla. I know of no one claiming to be Obama supporters doing the dirt digging.

Honestly you guys, the mud slinging is only gonna get worse for the next 50+ days. Both sides are so full of it that it makes me sick. The campaign managers are spinning meaningless topics out of control. If we're going to judge candidates based on their own morals and ethics, all four have weaknesses. Read. Study the issues. Avoid the lame radio and tv talk shows. Read. Decide what issues align with your own thoughts and beliefs. There are many critical ones for this election. Go into the booth and pull the lever for that party. Peace out.

techo - good post. I like unbiased reporting, good or bad. If I may, I found this letter on the net and am not for sure if it is true. http://www.snopes.com/politics/info/kilkenny.asp

Could you ask your connections if it is true that this person wrote it. Here is the link to where I found it. http://www.snopes.com/politics/soapbox/sarahpalin.asp

Thanks

Uh?

His platform has been not the same old Washington politics. Seems dirt digging on his part fits right in.

Chief,

I am guessing the people wrote the letters. Kilkenny is a common name there. So is Frost. I think Jackie S is an APD officer,who resides in Wasilla. If it is her... she has climbed Denali and almost summited. She would be against Palin as she is LEO. It would be hard to verify. There are a great deal of rumors and innuendo going through little Alaska right now.

I have to tell you I am a bit biased toward Palin. Not perfect, but she is Alaskan. I do not know her or Todd on a first name basis. I did go through Wasilla many times to fish Sheep Creek, Little Willow (awesome grayling), and the Montana. I also stopped by their Wal-Mart. It sells more duct tape than any other Wal-Mart in America. Chris Watchus was in my academy and is a Wasilla officer. He happened to be with Wooten when he allegedly poached the moose.

She is the closest we will ever get to a regular person being near the White house. Anyone else has to be rich to get the votes. Todd runs the Tesoro Iron Dog 2000. He won it four times. My best friend (next to dog and wife) runs the same race. His name is Jack Carson. It is a tough race. You have to put duct tape on your face to keep from losing too much skin. I assume they purchased the duct tape at the Wasilla Wal-Mart.

One thing Alaskans and Ozarks have in common is their love and respect of nature. I think that is why I love both places.

I do ramble!

Amen to MrDucky. I am trembling in my waders to see such a blind following from someone with a tainted past, no agenda, and no experience at anything except Community Leadership. Was that a gang that he leaded before?

I think the adage is "We fear those that don't know". Nobody seems to be able to tell us what Obama can do to save the country from its ruination.......

[Chief Grey Bear]

Thanks for the reply techo. Interesting about that duct tape! I bet it is just a geat, pleasant feeling, peeling that off!

Ya know JD, if your guy's fear of him was from facts and not rumors and out right lies, I would be in your camp. But such is not the case. Like Al posted, John was who I wanted from the republican side. Glad he is there.

One thing that pushed me towards Obama was once I got to doing a little research on him, it was not what I was hearing from some of the media. I don't intend to change your mind but, if you will, do a little research on him. See if it is anywhere near what you are hearing about him. Listen to what he is saying. Then make a decision.

Pushed to a guy that promises to raise your taxes so the government can waste them away? Pushed to a guy that promises to cut the military and defense projects to balance a budget after we have just got it back to the Pre-Clinton years? Pushed to a guy that promises to sit down with the leaders of nations that want to see us fall and have a touchy feely with them and tell them we are wrong for wanting them to quit being terrorists when they threaten us with nuclear weapons and attacks? Where is the research and WHY IS HE YOUR MESSIAH?

Why can't you come out and say in public on the forum why you want to see Obama President? Why can't any Obama supporter say why they want to see him President? What part of the statements above do you think is false and I have a wrong opinion of him about? What is the big secret that you can get only by listening to him stammer and studder if there are no cue cards? What is the secret agenda that makes him the Man?

McCain is for tax control. McCain is for a strong military and will defend the country to the end. McCain wants to shake up the Congress and get us back on the path to controlling wasteful spending. He may be the one to stop some of the Partisan Politics that have stalemated government the past few years. He has the leadership ability and experience to be President and has an EXCELLENT Vice President to back him up. I feel there were better candidates in the Republican Party, Huckabee and Rudy come to mind, but McCain is proving himself to be a worthy opponent too. At this point we only have 2 choices and it is pretty easy to choose which one we need for the next 4 years. There is no law that states that you have to vote just because you belong to a certain political party.

Duct tape is the one stop fix it all. Ranks right up there with superglue.
