Good for you Bob. Care to share that ‘research’ so we can then join you in that frank discussion?

Fruitless exercise. Half-truths and outright distortions are hard to argue with a distortion artist like Bob. He knows that.

I had my bellyfull of that several months ago. Among the crap he was posting at the time was that Palin's "sky-high" unfavorables (over 50% according to him) were "death to a politican" (his words). This was just hours after Rasmussen released a poll showing her F/U at 51/43.

I am half-interested in his 'research' showing the AK fiscal 2009 budget she submitted was 9+% higher than the previous year, a bunch of crap. He probably does his research at Mudflats or some other renowned Alaska blogger site. LOL.

BTW, here are some real facts:

Governor Murkowski's last budget FY2007: $11,697,400,000

Governor Palin's last budget FY2010: $10,570,000,000

That's a 9.5% DROP.

With respect to federal requests for money submitted by the AK governor's office:

FFY2007- Gov. Murkowski 63 projects at $349,497,000

FFY08- Gov. Palin 52 projects at $256,037,000

FFY09- Gov. Palin 31 projects at $195,094,900

FFY10- Gov. Palin: 8 projects @ $69,100,000

Real facts are pesky things but that won't stop Palin smear artists like Bob. And he IS an artist at it.

This is so funny. You have one Palinista calling me a liar while another says a 9% increase in spending is reasonable.

Maybe you all should conference and get your stories straight.

And no I won’t debate it with you, as I stated there is no reason to debate with starry eyed apostates. Whatever facts you offer they’ll just call you a liar, a RINO shill or a DU plant. They’re not interested in facts, all they want is to stare at the bright, shiny object that lulls themselves into their warm cozy haze.

Why not? The Marxist media got much of their "facts" on Palin from these sites. Bob's in good company. :)

ncluding the “bridge to no where” that she was for before she was against) from Wasila to Juneau

Seeing as how Wasila is 565 US miles (909.27 Kilomters) north west of Juneau and about 15 miles (24.14 Kilomters inland from the Sea), that would of been one heck of a bridge Bob J is claiming she was for.

Those budget numbers are not correct and I don’t have the time to find out what’s wrong with them right now. You could post your source as a starter.

Still waiting for the so-called research. The LSM must have slipped up when they sent battalions of reserchers and lawyers to forensically examine her record from Wasilla Mayor to Governor. I read in her book that they went over every single meeting record. No doubt Bob has too.

Bob J is short for Bob Jazeera. America and conservatives suck in Bob’s world. In Bob Jazeera’s world, we are just propagating the International Criminal Gang of Bastards started by the evil one, Bush. Bob says sarah sucks, Bob says there are no American tanks near Baghdad, Bob says that those kids really did rape the Duke stripper, and we must come to our senses and expel other non-Bob approved thoughts from our minds. Let Bob’s thoughts become your own.

Seriously, Bob is emblematic of the arrogant soviet sub captain from Hunt for Red October, who fired his torpedo armed, only to have it come back and blow his own sub to smithereens. Keep firing on these threads you arrogant ass, you’ll end up blowing your own self up!!

Just for the record, the infamous "bridge to nowhere" was from the SE AK town of Ketchikan over to Ketchikan Island where there was a small airport. The island had a population of less than 100 and Murkowski and company wanted to spend 100's of millions for this bridge.

There's been much debate about when she was for it and when she was against it but the bottom line is that there was one person responsible for the decision to kill this project and it was Gov. Palin. She probably lost the votes of most of the 8,000 or so townfolk when she did it, but she DID kill it. End of story.

I used to think the that rag was conservative back when it first opened up - but it is definitely not - perhaps a libertarian site, perhaps a bit left - and seems to be trending further left.

...starry eyed apostates.

1) deserter: a disloyal person who betrays or deserts his cause or religion or political party or friend etc.
2) not faithful to religion or party or cause

Curious choice of words there Bob. Freudian slip?

NO NO NO doesn't work that way Bob. You are the ones throwing out statistics and making accusations about Palin The accuser, not the accused, has to back up their claims with sourced facts. IF you cannot source these supposed "Facts" you keep throwing around Bob, we have no choice but to assume you are simply making them up until you prove different.

Contrary to your 'sources', these numbers come from the AK governor's website. You're on your own. I ain't doing your research for you.

I'm probably not a good enough a source for you anyway, right? I'm just a cultist with no facts. /s

it's IMPOSSIBLE to have any kind of rational discussion about Palin

You're right. Let's have a rational discussion about Palin. I'll start. If people don't start opposing Sarah Palin....

It just hit me.

You are a Sarah nut...but you don't share her Christian faith, do you?

Still hanging out in your mind, huh? Thanks for that extra attention. You claimed it was vanity, but I'm there!

I'm no kind of nut, but I am a Christian. As a matter of fact, Sarah and I have the same God! He is one of the reasons I support her. Have you read her book? You may have some better understanding of why she is so popular (or not!). She hasn't just captured my heart, but my mind and commitment. Todd gets all the FWB...

But, I'll still be in your thoughts, I am sure. Have a nice night! I know I will. I'm listening to some classic Yes (Union), and catching up on email and stuff...

Lit an Acid Roam, and spilled a couple fingers of Grant's, now back to Yes, and my grandson's Cub Scout video from last weekend's camping trip...
