Hmm, a Governor leads a meeting with a large number of foreign diplomats. Including a meeting with the Russian ambassador, who states "I am so pleased to be here this weekend,” Ambassador Kislyak said. “As discussed in my meeting with Governor Palin, it is encouraging to note the similarities between Alaska and the Russian Far East. Our existing commercial connections and the mutually beneficial nature of our professional partnerships can only help provide a measure of stability as, together, we face the global economic challenges that lie ahead.”

encouraging to note the similarities between Alaska and the Russian Far East

exisiting commercial connections

mutually beneficial nature of our partnerships

I guess the Russian Ambassador can see Alaska from his house.

I wonder what similarities there are between Chicago and the Russian Far East, or Wilmington, Delaware? What commerical connections do they have with Russia? What mutually beneifical professional partnerships?

Was Obama ever leading delegations of foreign diplomats from Russia, the UK, China, ROK, Canada and others(3 of whom are UN P5 members with nukes) when he wasn't bothering to hold meeting on the Senate Foreign Relations committee?

Will Katie Couric be reporting on this? Interviewing the Russian Ambassador? Are they other governors meeting with diplomats from the P5 countries?

Hopefully she continues to do more of this and gains more credentials and experience(not that she didn't have more than Obama, already, but you can never have too much)

I note the book "Divided Twins" in front of her, which is all about the similarities between Alaska and Siberia. I wonder if all the MSM pundits who got thrills up their legs when they saw Obama reading The End of America by Fareed Zakharia(or some similar title) have ever heard of that book. I wonder if they've read it.

I'd certainly rather have seen her at my cabinet table for the next four years than Mr Big Ears staring back at me.

But it's good to see she's back in the saddle and getting on with things.

She has a helluva lot more qualifications than a certain half-wit in New York who thinks she is entitled to a Senate seat.

not sure how to edit, but that should obviously read 50 years of Alaska, not 05 years. And delegation, not delegatoin. Hopefully mods can correct the title.

Why would foreing diplomats want to meet with someone who recently used the word butt? /s

This was smart for her to make these invitations. Who says she has to travel out of Alaska to gain foreign policy experience.

She is seeing representatives for the leaders. Barak will actually see the leaders. I don’t think he is worried.

I’m betting that the majority of them came just to meet Gov. Palin in person, they’re not all that interested in the 50th anniversary of Alaska becoming a state. If this meeting took place in June, few of these people would have gone.

I will never forgive the Mainstream Media, the Liberals, and especially Tina Fey for what they did to this woman. I noticed this is from the Governor’s website and I’m sure it will not be reported on the MSM. It’s frightening how many people actually believe that Sarah Palin uttered “I can see Russia from my house.”

Scroll down for some great Sarah pics!

I wonder what it would take to get Alaska back under local control without all these federal regulations? I know, an act of Congress, but I wonder whether the locals could create a groundswell to break the fed’s stranglehold on the state.
