Of course she did. Alaska is on the front lines of America's defense and as Commander in Chief of the AK Guard she often received military briefings. Alaska is also next to Canada and she had to deal with that nation as well.
You're really out of your league here Fab5Freddy
“Of course she did. Alaska is on the front lines of America’s defense and as Commander in Chief of the AK Guard she often received military briefings. Alaska is also next to Canada and she had to deal with that nation as well.”
None of which would mean much of anything if she were being compared to Biden or McCain, but she wasn’t. All Obama had going for him was he traveled a little. At any rate, Palin’s citing Alaska’s proximity to Russia was at least as good a qualification as Obama running his own campaign and being a community organizer, both of which were put forward as evidence of executive experience.
I suspect she also is aware that if Obama pulls out of Afghanistan, the trans caucus pipeline will go to China, not India...and she probably also knows about Russia’s control of the natural gas pipeline that allows them to blackmail the Ukraine and Europe.
Wonder why no one bothers to ask her about these things?
