Geesh, if I hire someone to do job ‘X’ but they ignore me and keeping doing job ‘Y’ – I fire them!

If she is just another corrupt, pork governor, then Alaska would be wise to fire her. Pork is not the road to prosperity, just look at Robert C. Byrd’s West Virginia.

Now you answer my question, is pork the answer? Is welfare the path to prosperity?

Here Trollman, spin THIS!

The governor has asked the nation’s leaders to look at these issues to ensure fairness in the stimulus package and that the package does not harm the long-term fiscal health of the nation.

I don’t need to spin it, it is already political spin.

There is no such thing as “responsible” pork.

Geesh, if I hire someone to do job ‘X’ but they ignore me and keeping doing job ‘Y’ – I fire them! What would you do with them? Promote them?

You don’t ‘get it’ – she doesn’t ~wish~ to stay the governor … she IS the governor! Her NUMBER ONE obligation is to her constituents in Alaska which does not include you and me.

Silly me, and here I thought pushing for more pork/stimulus was bad. Apparently breaking the federal government is in the best interests of Alaskans.

Furthering people’s addiction and dependence on pork isn’t in anyone’s best interests. The best thing is to teach people to make it on their own steam and stop being a leech.

Answer me this, when she becomes president in 4 years, don’t you want her to do exactly the same thing? – DO HER JOB to do the best thing for her constituents which then will include you and me? ONLY THEN will she want not just more money to stay in the pockets of Alaskans but stay in the pockets of the citizens of EVERY state. ONLY THEN will she be able to put her principles to practice and lower taxes to accomplish that purpose. For now – she’s a governor and doing her job.

Concerning Palin, what do you suppose her rating would be as governor if she says she’s refusing the federal money and that those facing unemployment will just have to feed themselves on her lofty principles? SHE’S A GOVERNOR.. YOU TAKE THE MONEY!

Yeah, if she wants to stay A GOVERNOR. If she wants to get my vote for president, she is going to have to stand on principle, regardless of what is popular.

That is the problem with the current GOP – they take the easy way out, rather than stand on principle. That is why America is in such a mess.

Palin ran as VP as being a person of principle. She claimed she didn’t need pork from Washington, that if she wanted something built, Alaskans would provide for themselves.

Between this and her immigration comment, I’ve went from being a fan to .

Free people are NOT supposed to be at the mercy of its government. Instead they now easily have us out-gunned and constantly seek an even greater advantage by banning the very weapons that actually would insure a free state.

Sorry RNC, if your position on guns is the same as Michael Steele’s then count me out.

The RNC has elected a guy to chairmanship who really knows how deal with pressing issues…

In further bad news for the GOP, most GOP governors have come out in support of Obama’s “stimulus,” including Palin. They want their “free” money.

I saw the headline on a paper here today that the stimulus bill will be redone. What a surprise there. Good job Republicans! I’m wondering if BHO tries to throw Nancy under the bus. I see Ahmadenijad is in the headlines too. Obama is so amateur it is not even funny. 1979 all over again, Iran is going to get congratulated for punking the U.S. Maybe Cuba can get in on it and give us another Muriel Boatlift. The democrats are so embarrasing, they are like the crazy uncle you want to hide in the attic!!
