Ebon--hi.
The Palins live in a MILLION DOLLAR HOUSE in a teeny tiny working class village in Alaska--does that tell you anything?
Not necessarily, it would depend on local property values and how much debt the family is carrying.
He who oppresses the poor shows contempt for their Maker, but whoever is kind to the needy honors God. ~ Proverbs 14:31Fiat justitia ruat caelum

No, it sounds like someone predicts we will be in double digit inflation and unemployment during the primary and is trying raise funds for a primary run.
That sounds about right to me. Assuming the Palins aren't wealthy (and they don't seem to be), she's going to have to raise considerable wodge to fund a primary (let alone a general campaign).

I heard Ms Palin, during her sterling peroration on universal human rights and how all that pertains to the Alaskan governorship just a few minutes ago, and she said something incoherent about "fish being alive only if they're moving," or somesuch drivel.
Now, THAT's genius, doggone it!"
A conservative is someone who believes that firefighters, teachers, and police officers are overpaid.
"Wesley told the early Methodists to gain all they could and save all they could so that they could give all they could. It means that I consider my money to belong to God and I see myself as one of the hungry people who needs to get fed with God’s money. If I really have put all my trust in Jesus Christ as savior and Lord, then nothing I have is really my own anymore."
Republicans experience suffering the way they experience all their virtues, i.e. vicariously.
According to "just war" standards of Christian theology, if Saddam Hussein killed 30,000 Iraqis, and the Iraq War killed 120,00, how was the War "just"?

There's video of her resignation speech, fellow politicaholics. www.eschatonblog.com/2009/07/watch-it-ov... She says she knows "when to pass the ball for victory." Victory over whom, or what, was not specified. The speech is mostly totally incoherent, and has very little of anything that might be identified as content or subject matter. It's a bunch of meaningless platitude-type cliches strung together end to end. "Curiouser" and "curiouser" said Alice.

ROFLMAO
No doubt resigning mid-FIRST-term after 15 ethics complaints will play well with her base. They seem to seek out the most disgusting freaks they can find to run. But I really don't think that's going to fly with the swing voters. Dave do you REALLY think her resignation mid=FIRST-term as Governor makes Palin more bankable as a Presidential candidate? I know the country is better off with her out of office.
The thing I find most irritating about conservatives isn't just that their opinions so rarely have any basis in reality. It's not even their incessant refusal to change those opinions when presented with irrefutable facts and logic. But rather it's their complete bewilderment that anyone else might think they should.

There's nothing at all new about the venomous anti-Obama sentiment coming from the right. Its just what happens when an effective and popular Democrat leads the country in a positive direction. Kennedy and Johnson had the John Birch Society. Carter and Clinton had their lunatic detractors. What has changed, however, is that the Birchers and Clinton Death List crowd used to be the extreme fringe and the GOP saw them as an embarrassment. Now the crazies are the top GOP leadership and only a few Republicans are calling for sanity. Why? Because Republicans have no ideas and nothing else to sell.

Palin has been dogged in recent months by ethics inquiries. Her office last month announced the 15th dismissal of an ethics complaint against her or one of her staff. Wait a minute, correct me if I'm wrong. But isn't the above statement a prerequisite for being a member of the republican party?
To "choose" dogma and faith over doubt and experiment is to throw out the ripening vintage and to reach greedily for the Kool-Aid."

Well, doggone it. I just hope that there's no connection between Ms Palin and a certain SC Governor who has been seen in Argentina and Wasilla.
