  My favorite questions

  My favorite questions from this thread:

  What is a fair tax on oil production?

  Louisiana imposes a 12.5% tax on oil production. You raised the tax on Alaskan oil production to 25%, resulting in a 16.5% decline in production since 2005.

  Is Louisiana's tax too low or is Alaska's tax too high?

  As Governor, you increased the tax on Alaskan oil production to 25%, resulting in a 16.5% decline in production since 2005. Over 90% of the profits earned by the big five oil companies come from foreign operations, yet McCain proposes reducing the taxes on these profits.

  Why do you support increased taxes on domestic oil production but lower taxes on foreign oil?

  -- jiminmpls

  If Iowa collected a 25% tax on corn production and paid all Iowa residents a dividend on that production, wouldn't that be considered socialism?

  As a devoted Christian and follower of Jesus Christ why did you take so much delight in sneering at Barack Obama's work as a community organizer in your acceptance speech at the Republican National Convention? Aren't Christians called to carry God's work into all places?

  Thanks to Secretary Paulson's bailout of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac it appears the taxpayers could be on the hook for hundreds of billions. Can you tell the taxpayers why they should be responsible for bailing out the mortgage industry when, under your and McCain's economic plan, you're calling for still less regulation?

  [and go Campbell Brown on it-don't let her change the subject]

  in your career, you've always been able to take your children to work, even breastfeeding your infant in the governor's office. that's terrific. in your new position, what will you do to make sure all other working women in america have the same opportunities you've had?

  My own questions are:

  What exactly have you done for people with disabilities in the past? Why should we trust you with nuclear codes, given some of the "Apocalypse in the Middle East" types your church has flirted with?

  Are Georgians Russian, Asiatic, or Slavic? Why does this matter?
