    A VOTE FOR PALLIN IS A VOTE FOR FAILIN

    This woman took a small rugged Alaska town and attacked it with Carl Rove style Republican politics. She brought in big box stores, and doubled the towns size and along the way attempted to ban books while firing anyone who did not agree with her. TELL THE WORLD, NO-NO-NO

    A VOTE FOR PALLIN

    IS A VOTE FOR FAILIN

    Pallin-- Folly Most Foul-BEWARE

    When John McCain croaks in office, watch out, because this woman, this Pallin creature he has nominated is not only poorly educated, poorly vetted, poorly traveled, poorly studied, but she is dangerous to freedom in America.

    This female is anti-everything, unless she thinks it's right. It seems likely she has never read or grasped the nature of our nation's founding, the thoughts of John Lock, Thomas Jefferson, Benjamin Franklin, John Adams... the whole bunch of them.

    One doubts if she knows of the Rights of Man, let alone woman, and probably would stumble at the concept of Natural law. This nomination is folly most foul. No one can now vote for John McCain unless all they love is some twisted concept of the lord, guns, and millions-billions for the few, and poverty, both economic and spiritual, for the many.
