      You can't trust the lying network, the propaganda channel for the repugs, to give us the truth! Why do you think Cheney demands fox on any room he walks into?

      Fox, the network that Reagan envisioned when he vetoed the Truth in Telecommunications Act! Why Repugs today oppose the Fairness Act too!

      Seems Fox News is trying to avoid the most serious charges against Palin. Her corruption has been well documented by now. Even more serious is her abuse of political power to carry out personal vendettas and to finance ugly religious fanatics.

      Voting for Palin would be like voting for Osama Bin Laden.

      Sarah Palin used AK tax dollars to fund dominionist churches

      Over the past few days, I've done reporting on Sarah Palin's extensive dominionist connections--including the attempt to run her as a "stealth" dominionist candidate and her connections to some scary dominionist groups including not just "Joel's Army" folks but a far-right Christian Reconstructionist political party linked to domestic terrorism.

        If you want the truth about the alleged rumors, read the letter about Sarah Palin from Anne Kilkenny:

        http://mudflats.wordpress.com/2008/09/04/a-letter-...

        Anne Kilkenny lives in Alaska and has attended the meetings chaired my Palin when she was mayor of Wasila.

        I just joined this group and just posted some articles on many of the alleged rumors. In addition, there is the Alaska Progressive Voice - an online radio station. People from the lower 48 states and elsewhere are calling in to the station to comment on or ask question about the issues related to Palin.

        Feel free to check out my newly posted articles and vote on them.

      Also, there were people here on Propeller who said Palin's husband was a big oil man so she was bought and paid for by big oil.

        I know her husband is in oil, but not a big player... The real Bought and paid for aspect is this....

        10% of her entire campaign finances running for lieutenant governor came from the head of VECO oil, his wife, and their friends just days after meeting one on one with him.. This is the same guy who bribed half of Alaska's republican party, and is the reason Ted Stevens is indicted, and multiple state GOP'ers are in jail...

        Her position on creationism is bad enough

        “I don’t think there should be a prohibition against debate if it comes up in class. It doesn’t have to be part of the curriculum,”

        What debate? Creationism is SCIENCE FICTION. Let's leave science in science class and science fiction in literature class. Is that too much to ask for?

          “Creation science” isn’t science. It is a naive, simplistic belief system.

          Try to get a PHD in any life science at any reputable university any where in the world using Inteligunt Design as the basis for your thesis and you will be laughed off campus.

          Ineresting thing about evolutionists.

          You know, there are people today who believe the earth is flat. They reject outright the notion that the earth is round. Such people do not stir the first shred of indignation in me, though I certainly do not agree with them.

          Ever notice the complete inability of evolutionists to respond to creationism in any way other than complete, abject indignation? They marinate in their own indignation when confronted with creationism.

          Very curious indeed.

        An 8th myth ... She supported the bridge before she cancelled it.

        The bridge legislation passed in 2005. She took office in December 2006 and cancelled it.

        If you don't like her, don't vote for her, but quit trying to destroy her.

        I don't like Joe Biden, so he won't get my vote.

          Thanks for playing.

          http://news.bostonherald.com/news/2008/view.bg?art...

          FTA:

          The Alaska governor campaigned in 2006 on a build-the-bridge platform, telling Ketchikan residents she felt their pain when politicians called them "nowhere." They’re still feeling pain today in Ketchikan, over Palin’s subsequent decision to use the bridge funds for other projects - and over the timing of her announcement, which they say came in a pre-dawn press release that seemed aimed at national news deadlines.
          ---

          Pandering at its finest.

          She canceled the project and KEPT MY money.

          It's only welfare when the money is for someone else in the Con Culture of Lies and Incompetence.

        2) Palin Supported a “Nazi Sympathizer” ---she may or may not have supported Buchanan. i give thas one another woop dee doo.
        3) Palin “Wants Creationism Taught in School” --- this one may lock in the Far right vote.
        4) Palin “Was Nearly Recalled” While Mayor---- what does this say "dropped their recall bid" sounds like almost recalled.
        5) Palin “Opposes Sex Education”----Palin favors abstinence-based sex education programs. Wow three in a row as TRUE.
        6) “This Picture Proves Palin is …”--- does this even need to be debunked. we all can say together PHOTOSHOP. amen.
        7) Palin is the grandmother, and not the mother, of Trig Palin. unabashedly untrue. no more need be said.

        I like one not listed, but proven: she believes that the Pledge of Allegiance came from the founding fathers; particularly the "under God" part!
