Alaska Democrat Wants Sarah Palin to Take it All Off
AOL News ^ | 3/25/09 | Tommy Christopher

Posted on 03/25/2009 6:38:02 PM PDT by redk

There's a new controversy surrounding Alaska Governor Sarah Palin's clothes, but this time, the price-tag is considerably lower. An Alaska Democrat wants the Governor to take off any clothes that bear the "Arctic Cat" logo while she's on the clock.

"Palin responds in the ADN article, but let me save some time:This is weak frakkin' sauce if I've ever tasted it, and it only serves to marginalize legitimate opposition to Sarah Palin.

She's on the clock 24/7, so is she supposed to cut the logos off of all of her clothes, and walk around wearing what amounts to a glorified doily?

There are lots of good reasons to oppose Sarah Palin on the substance. Complaints like this serve only to help her lump all criticism into this wingnut category."

This is actually a good point. I wasn't thrilled when I first heard she put out a press release in response to this complaint, but now I'm starting to think it was well played.

There was an earlier story about malicious lawsuits against her family. A defense fund might be in order.

I think I finally get that “I can see Russia” remark that Governor Palin made during the campaign. The Alaskan legislature is loaded with America-hating Commies!

These fools need to STFU and get back to the business of the people - if they even have a clue what that is!

The economy is in the tank, terrorism is at our door, crime is out of control, and these morons are handwringing about LABELS?

Good grief!

Silly person.
In snow country you wear the best gear you can lay your hands on. How would Celtic like it if Sara ordered an alternative to (very good) Arctic Cat gear and charged it to the state as a business expense?

Sorry.

Palin's foreign-policy experience came up when she gave her first major interview, on Sept. 11 to ABC News. Asked what insight she had gained from living so close to Russia, she said: "They're our next-door neighbors, and you can actually see Russia from land here in Alaska, from an island in Alaska."

And I can back up what she said. You can see Russia from Alaska. Tina Fey is a moron.

The Democrats are disgusting vile pieces of trash. Can I say that here..Ok now I feel better now. They are like roaches, heck even worse then that. Maybe Sarah should wear a jacket with the saying “Dems can kiss my ass” right on the front..

Linda Kellen Biegel, celticdiva, is a big, fat wannabe, who is insanely jealous of Sarah, but too lazy to take off that extra 150 lbs. I’ve nothing against obese people, but don’t tolerate fat people being jealous of skinny people

The democrats know that a real conservative will win the presidential election. Sarah is as close as the republicans have right now, and she scares the bejeesus out of them. If Obama keeps going like he is, anyone will be a shoo in.

this was what was actually said:

GIBSON: What insight into Russian actions, particularly in the last couple of weeks, does the proximity of the state give you?

PALIN: They’re our next door neighbors and you can actually see Russia from land here in Alaska, from an island in Alaska.

GIBSON: What insight does that give you into what they’re doing in Georgia?

PALIN: Well, I’m giving you that perspective of how small our world is and how important it is that we work with our allies to keep good relation with all of these countries, especially Russia. We will not repeat a Cold War. We must have good relationship with our allies, pressuring, also, helping us to remind Russia that it’s in their benefit, also, a mutually beneficial relationship for us all to be getting along.

Please don’t perpetuate that falsehood. Sarah Palin NEVER said that she could ‘see Russia from her house.’ That was Tina Fey, as Palin, w/Amy Poehler as Hillary, on Saturday Night Live. Due to the idiocy of the web, it ‘stuck’ as though Palin actually said it. Again she didn’t.

“she scares the bejeesus out of them”
If Sara has any faults, I’ve not seen them. She’s been the model(in more ways than one) for conservatives. I’d like to think some repubs are learning from her but I have severe doubts on that score.
I inherently respect govenors more than reps and senators in that they actually have to run an organization. The majority of congresspersons haven’t ever done useful work and just suck on the public teet.
Sara just has it all together. The only things that worked against her in the last cycle were her natural kindness - which Rats and Rinos dissed, and Johnny Mac - pussy politician out of his decade and his water.

That would be a really bad move. Sarah would have a line of Dem gals a mile long following her and fighting for their turn! LOL!

No matter what SP does, there will be criticism. What we all need to develop (I've perfected and tested mine) is a facial expression that says "Gimme a f'n break! You can't be that stoopid, can ya?". Used it on my lib bro and his feminazi wife with great success!

no, I think that’s an actual photo-she was on the cover of Vogue two or three years ago (before Trigg). The article was actually pretty good-see just like with Playboy, my interest in Vogue is for the articles.
