What she Failed to say is that the Plane did not sell. Alaska can have her because we sure dont want such talking trailer trash

Power corrupts. Absolute power corrupts absolutely. Fame and adulation also may corrupt some and lead to megalomania. John McCain and Sarah Palin have given in to that side of humans that fall victim to their own egos, sense of responsibility of right and wrong, and have 'gone over to the dark side' if you will excuse the pun. Under the tutelage of a corrupt Party, they have made their decisions and are now just a tool of the power-driven Republican National Cult.

How can Sarah Palin have good judgement? She was a high risk pregnancy with a down syndrome fetus. When she began labor on April 17, instead of immediately going to the hospital, she gave a speech in Dallas. Then, in order to have the baby born in Alaska she proceeded to board an Alaska Airlines plane to Seattle, change planes for a 1 hour flight to Anchorage and then 1 hour drive to hospital. This is family values? This is caring about an unborn child? This is selfish, bad judgement, and appalling. This women has no business being a heart beat away from President. Help us all. Ann

Palin touted her frugality on the national stage on Wednesday, noting that she put the governor’s luxury jet on eBay. The anecdote played well with the crowd.

Laura McGann writes:
"In 2007, Palin raised taxes on oil companies, angering fellow conservatives. But the decision boosted state revenues, putting her in good standing with the public. She also pushed through a plan to build a gas pipeline with $500 million in state subsidies, a boon to local unions."

Your emphasis on the $500 million in state subsidies neglects to mention the PREVIOUS pipeline plan's level of state subsidies. The old plan championed by ConocoPhillips, BP and Exxon, called for tax breaks of over $1000 million (ie. one billion or twice as much).

At the present, natural gas available on the North Slope of Alaska just sits there. Gas produced as a by-product of oil production is just wasted, adding to global warming.
Senator Obama praised the pipeline plan of Governor Palin a few months ago saying it would be "delivering clean natural gas and creating good jobs in the process."

All Biden has to do to effectively shut Palin down is state the obvious: How could you possibly face the challenges of being so close to the presidency when you can't even stand up to the press?

It's a valid question. The media has been giving Bush hell the past four years (admittedly, not until after it was popular to do so), so she can pretty much expect the same kind of scrutiny if she were to take office.

If she were as tough as she led on, she'd speak for herself, explain her questionable political past, and not LIE every time she opens her mouth.

Sarah Pahin uses poor judgment and the GOP makes her out to be a hero! The issue should not be about Sarah Pahin not having an abortion; the issue is that she did not have the good judgment to use birth control. Any intelligent person knows that when you choose to have unprotected sex at 43 you have a very high probability of having a child with Down Syndrome. The republicans are making her out to be a hero because she used the bad judgment not to prevent the pregnancy in the first place. I'm a mother of three, quite well educated, and moderately politically active. I am also a registered Arizona Republican. I do not have the experience, judgment and intelligence to have my finger on the nuclear button and I do not feel that Sarah Palin does either.
