Mean girl

Sarah Palin has a way of using "old boys" -- then dumping them when they become inconvenient.

    "Well Functioning...?"

    That must mean something different to you, because leaving a once-prospering town in debt, despite the extra cash from rape victim's who paid for their own kits, does not strike me as very good town management.

    I've yet to hear any reason that Sarah Palin was a good choice for the job. I've heard why Conservatives like her - she believes women should bear their rapist's babies, she anxiously awaits The Rapture, & believes man once walked alongside dinosaurs. Yay? I've heard she excited the Right Wing base and that before learning anything about her, some women loved the idea of a mother of 5 as President. Those are political reasons -but the only thing I've heard to defend her qualifications is that she can see Russia from her house.
