You think she'd be applauded from coming from a working class background, blue collar family, great family realtionships, career woman balancing priorities - you think she'd be on Oprah with a standing ovation. But nope, her politics and popularity are held against her. We have brilliant female minds like Whoopi Goldberg to look up to! I would NOT vote for her, but I have tremendous respect for her. Ask yourself this. your kids have 2 weeks to spend with a family over the summer. WHo would you choose, Barak Obama, Hillary Clinton or Sarah Palin? Its a no brainer for me. They'd have a blast with the Palin's and learn a ton. And honestly, would any of you trust Bill Clinton with your daughters? |

The irationality of the hatred against her is unbelievable to me. If you want to disagree with her politics, that's fair. But Palin attacks are almost always personal, never based on issues. |
LOL. I have never watched MSNBC before. Don't waste your time trying to debate politics with me. I am sure you are more informed than me. Not a fair fight. I am just a blue collar worker from very modest beginnings plodding along waiting for spring so i can go outside and do what I enjoy. I don't live in Alaska either so I really don't care what she did. Just sick of seeing her face on TV I guess. I did say Alaska in beautiful

Prof M has no skin in this game. He is an innocent bystander that really cant stand Palin from the surface

If I had a kid with Downs to take care of, and I knew that kid would need care after I was gone, and someone offered me 50 grand to make an appearance on TV, you bet I'd do it. If someone offered me a fe wmillion to write a book, I'd do it. If someone offered me a couple of million to do that show, I'd do it in a nanosecond. Wouldn't you? If so, you shouldn't criticize her. |
Pretty amazing women if you ask me. A lot of kids in this country should have a mother (/family) like her.
That said, I think the show is an obvious infomercial trying to inform the public about her life, because up till now the liberal media has told you what they want you to hear. This sort of bypasses them and it pisses them off. (Ie. instead of trying to trap her(and embarrass) with questions she does not have an answer to right off the top of her head in front of a lot of people) Alaska is a beautiful state that few have seen. She was a good state leader and a person with good values. I think she probably would not make the best president but I would like to see her in a significant role in the federal government. The media today sucks. They can embarrass anyone to the point of not running. And I think it limits us as a country because great leaders will not step up (or should I say step in?) for the job. If I had my choice for 2012 it would be Mitt Romney / Bill Frist. These two guys can both lead, and Bill knows the REAL heath care issues better than anyone in the US. But I doubt that this will happen...mainly because of the media. |

I said she makes me want to puke not that I hated her, I don't really hate anyone, well Yankee fans are pretty close. You are probably a Yankee fan right? Oh boy I guess I am off your xmas list. TBO I really don't have an educated opinion on her politics. I don't follow politics and offered my opinion on vomiting not even considering her political affiliation. I personally have just seen enough of her. If I want to see Alaska I'll watch the Nat Geo channel. I tried to watch an episode and I couldn't make it thru the whole thing. She ruined it for me. That is why I said what i said. For the record i 'm not an Oprah or Whoppie fan either. I am entitled to my opinion as you are. I guess this is why I never get involved with these type of discussion's on line. 2 people with different feelings. Let it be that . You don't have to sell me on her. I don't dislike you because you feel that way. Your probably a great guy. I don't really care to know anything about her. Good for her for overcoming all her obstacles in life and being a great governor. I am just sick of seeing her on the TV, along with Lindsey Lowhan, Justin Beiber, Dr. Phil, Oprah, . Just not in to self promoting people I guess.

pebble while lying to the fishermen saying she supports them NEVER FORGET! |
LOL. I just got caught with my foot in my mouth again, won't be the last time either. The gentleman felt like he had to come to her defense for reasons I did not think about when I made my puke editorial. He had his say and I had mine. As far as the political aspect of this discussion goes, which I never considered, send it to the forum that I never venture too and you guys can beat it to death with fellow fisherman that are way more informed than I . It will much more challenging and you will have a much better time than sparing with a dim wit like me. I think i'll go look at Katy Perry's breast's again. Happy Holiday's.

If she ran today, I think she'd win the primary and lose the general to Obama. If the economy doesn't get worse, I don't think she can beat him. If the economy does what I'm afraid it's going to do (take a big step towards Greece, because inflation can only go up, interest rates can only go up, housing prices can only go down, Israel is about to attack Iran) she will win. If unemployment and mortgage rates are both at 11.5%, and the Dow is at 6,000, she wins. |
And I just liked the scenery and thought her family was pretty interesting! :biglaugh: Good posts here though! I thought her husbands fishing business was interesting to. I never knew they fished for salmon like that out there. The halibut trip was a little dissapointing though and kinda boring. Though I did laugh a little when she was in the hold icing down the fish and she was getting a little sick from it. :yak5: I'm not sure I'm as in love with her as some guys are though. I think she is attractive and smarter than given credit for. What a great country we live in!:uhuh:

Ever since she passed the bill to dump the toxic waste in one of the Alaskan lakes and claimed it would be better for the fisheries I hate her and always will.If I did manage took get up in that.Donkey punch for sure.Maybe twice.Everything that she says is a lie and this is all a big show leading up to something bigger.Look at the wall and read the damn writing.I'd rather watch anyone else explore Alaska and all it has to offer.Even though if they could they would separate from the US if they had a say.:wall:

I think it's reasonable that she can't be a total dunce as she did become Gov before she hit the spotlight.
That being said, had she not had looks it's fair to assume she wouldn't have been picked for McCain's gamble. Had she not been thrust into the spotlight, it's fair to assume we wouldn't even know who she was. Today we have Palin's Alaska, Bristol on DWTS and Levi in Playgirl. I say good for them. But to think Palin's current position in the GOP is about HER STRENGTH is absurd. She's being used by the media as a novelty and the GOP is laughing all the way to the bank. -spence |

Funny part is with this and the last election she may be the ist female presidential candidate that might be someone to look at. Ilooked at her political record up there an she's a sight better than the bozo in the white house right now. Plus she can prove she came from here.

I knew it was inevitable......I cast ye into the Pit of Despair.

P. be careful, don't get sucked in, remember what happened to me on TMOA
plug swap. :huh: I shoulda listenend to you. :hihi: :D Now listen to me. :buds: |
LOL . Hey Dave always great to hear from you.Yes Dave. Every once in a while I post something in this forum and then very soon after I realize I am not in Kansas anymore and I am exposed for the nit wit I really am.:confused: I am heeding your warning. I am out of my element here. It's a pretty scary place.. I only look in here once in a while, but I'm usually just peeking. I thought i would be ok because this didn't start in here it was on the main fishing forum where I feel comfortable but I should have know it was just a sting operation and I got bagged. I'll stick to music where I can just delete anything I don't like.:uhuh: Have a great X mas Dave. P.

:rotf2::rotf2: I feel the same way in this forum. I promise i wasn't trying to expose you here! |
:biglaugh: No problem I took the bait hook, line an sinker. You set me up. I'm just waiting for Conn. Jim to come into the music forum and say he doesn't like some musician's style. Then I can show what a real moron I am. With my luck he is probably a closet music aficionado and I'll be humbled again, but no one will ever see it because I got the inside track:uhuh:
