And you thought Sarah Palin was dumb

ACTUALLY, I NEVER THOUGHT SHE WAS DUMB, EVER....

READ TO THE VERY END! VERY ENLIGHTENING!!! AND VERY DISTURBING!!!

By Dewie Whetsell, Alaskan Fisherman.

As posted in comments on Greta's article referencing the MOVEON ad about Sarah Palin.

The last 45 of my 66 years I've spent in a commercial fishing town in Alaska . I understand Alaska politics but never understood national politics well until this last year. Here's the breaking point: Neither side of the Palin controversy gets it. It's not about persona, style, rhetoric, it's about doing things. Even Palin supporters never mention the things that I'm about to mention here.

1. Democrats forget when Palin was the Darling of the Democrats, because as soon as Palin took the Governor's office away from a fellow Republican and tough SOB, Frank Murkowski, she tore into the Republican's "Corrupt Bastards Club" (CBC) and sent them packing. Many of them are now residing in State housing and wearing orange jump suits The Democrats reacted by skipping around the yard, throwing confetti and singing, "la la la la" (well, you know how they are). Name another governor in this country that has ever done anything similar.

2. Now with the CBC gone, there were fewer Alaskan politicians to protect the huge, giant oil companies here. So she constructed and enacted a new system of splitting the oil profits called "ACES." Exxon (the biggest corporation in the world) protested and Sarah told them, "don't let the door hit you in the stern on your way out." They stayed, and Alaska residents went from being merely wealthy to being filthy rich. Of course, the other huge international oil companies meekly fell in line. Again, give me the name of any other governor in the country that has done anything similar.

Sarah has more common sense, purpose and decency than we have seen in a public servant since George Washington.

Any imperfections serve to remind us of ourselves.

It’s all good.

Sounds like the Obamaloons are at it again - link broke.

However, just those first two articles required a person with far more experience, ability, morality, and drive than the entire contingent of democratic crooks and felons (translation: senate and house).

She’s not a dolt, but she’s not a conservative either, if you let her record do the talking. Yawn. Where have all the cowgirls gone?

It is pretty dumb not to be able to cut and paste the correct URL. Hint, hint - test your URL’s.

I hope the correct link gets posted. The book “Sarah Takes On Big Oil” details these events well.

Sarah is hated in Washington DC, not for her views, but for her actions - The practitioners in this cesspool of corruption have ever reason to fear her - she can't be bought or bamboozled! - This is proven fact, not idle speculation.

Please enlighten - why is she a Conservative NOT! ?

From what I have seen of her, she is as conservative as Ronald R. was.
