Righter than right

Let's check in with our blogging brethren in Alaska:
http://www.grizzlybay.org/SarahPalinInfoPage.htm

The top 10 things you should know about Sarah Palin:

1) She is presently
under investigation in Alaska for abuse of power
2) She believes creationism should be taught in public schools
3) She is opposed to abortion even in cases of rape and incest
4) She strongly supports big oil (her husband works for oil company BP)
5) She has no federal or international experience. Prior to being governor (for less than two years) she was only the
mayor of a small Alaskan town and a beauty queen!
6) She believes global warming is a farce and is opposed to listing the polar bear as an endangered species
7) She supports drilling in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge and anywhere else big oil wants
8) She supports
Pebble Mine which will destroy the richest salmon run in the world
9) She supports
aerial shooting of bears and wolves even though Alaskans voted twice to ban the practice.
10) She used $400,000 of state money to fund a media campaign in support of aerial shooting of wolves and bears

This woman is hard core. She may be your cup of tea. But I think she is dangerous.

1) She is under investigation because her former brother in law TASERED his 10 year old step son and she reported it to his superiors . Go Sarah. Proven Whistle blower.
2)She believes Evolution AND the balance of Creationism should be taught in schools since NEITHER is an absolute proven fact. Balance of ideas in schools is GOOD THING.
3)She is pro-life and didn't abort her special needs child. Roe vs Wade is really a non-issue since it isn't going to be turned down and Obama supports YOU and ME paying for the abortions of those who 'can't pay' for them. They chose, but I shouldn't pay.
4)She does NOT support big oil and took on big oil. She took on her own political party and got a man fired. She supports the pipeline for ENERGY INDEPENDENCE. Her husband is blue collar and is currently on 8 months leave to take care of the family. She lives her FEMINIST FOR LIFE values in that she can CHOOSE the life she lives.
5)She has much more true executive experience than the current Dem Pres Candidate. Mayor, Governor.
Obama has only been a junior Senator and has spent most of his time campaigning and 'community organizing'. Denigrating her college education by not stating it and calling her only a 'beauty queen' is a typical non-feminist response to a woman's right to live her OWN life. Sad.
6)Most world wide scientist have PROVEN that Global Warming is part and parcel of what the Earth does naturally and riding in an expensive golf cart isn't going to fix that. Do the research. The polar bear is not facing extinction. The polar bear is NOT endangered. Greenies would list my dog as endangered if it fit their agenda.
"Believe it or not, Global Warming is not due to human contribution of Carbon Dioxide (CO2). This in fact is the greatest deception in the history of science. We are wasting time, energy and trillions of dollars while creating unnecessary fear and consternation over an issue with no scientific justification. For example, Environment Canada brags about spending $3.7 billion in the last five years dealing with climate change almost all on propaganda trying to defend an indefensible scientific position while at the same time closing weather stations and failing to meet legislated pollution targets.

No sensible person seeks conflict, especially with governments, but if we don't pursue the truth, we are lost as individuals and as a society. That is why I insist on saying that there is no evidence that we are, or could ever cause global climate change. And, recently, Yuri A. Izrael, Vice President of the United Nations sponsored Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) confirmed this statement. So how has the world come to believe that something is wrong?

Maybe for the same reason we believed, 30 years ago, that global cooling was the biggest threat: a matter of faith. "It is a cold fact: the Global Cooling presents humankind with the most important social, political, and adaptive challenge we have had to deal with for ten thousand years. Your stake in the decisions we make concerning it is of ultimate importance; the survival of ourselves, our children, our species," wrote Lowell Ponte in 1976."


7)The Arctic Nat Wildlife Refuge is free from trees for MILES and smaller than the area of LA. Independence on foreign oil would HELP our economy by CREATING JOBS. Oh, but liberals don't like that because then there wouldn't be anyone to pay for...
8)She supports ENERGY INDEPENDENCE from foreign sources
9) all of the above

The true focus of this election should be: Is the candidate for President qualified to lead?
Obama--NO experience
much more iffy background---Islamic school for MOST of elementary with KORAN, Black Muslim connections with Wright and Farrahkan, Ayers connection--HM???, brother IS Muslim so how can he conveniently rewrite his OWN history and beliefs??? and connections than Palin could ever hope to create
Biden--issues of plagarism, his own comments about Obama's lack of experience and iffy qualifications, the Biden SON and Obama connection....hmmmm????

Truth: We need to be Energy Independent NOW. We need to get our own resources NOW. We need to create our own jobs with refineries, pipeline, nuclear power plants NOW. We need to quit pandering to foreign oil and countries that only want our downfall. Obama just wants to take them to lunch and chat about the future. Get real.
