Thank you. I will take your word for these being Sarah Palin's positions. I really don't know. And if true would not be something I would support. But , frankly, in context I think it is small potatoes. And as far as RR slamming the DOE, you are right. And he also promised to eliminate it. And as you know he didn't. Again, small potatoes.

On the big issues, like Individual Liberty, Small Government, Free Enterprise, RR had it right. IMO so does SP. In contrast to GWB who sold out every one of those principles in the end. I can not see SP ever saying, "I had to violate Free Market principles in order to save it".

I just don't think you have made the case for us fearing SP becoming Bush3.

Sarah Palin supported McCain's positions during the campaign, gave their speeches and even wore their clothes. They got a lot more loyalty from her than they deserved.

I think I'll wait until I hear post-election what her position is on additional Fed help for special-needs kids even though it is certainly, as you say, small potatoes compared to issues such as the return to founding principles and the pursuit of life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness -- issues which she talked so eloquently and movingly about in Evansville.

See, this is what I don't understand. You agree that you don't like the evidence I presented and then you ignored the evidence. Bush redux. In fact, that's the same way Obama got elected.
