So don't put words in my mouth.<BR/><BR/>2) If you read my "FAQ" section, it says that I respond to "valid inquiries" about what I am doing on this sight. Your smoke-blowing does not constitute such an inquiry, and therefore I will not be responding to it in any depth in the future. I also will ask you to keep your posts concise and/or limited in number, becasue I will delete troll-posts if they start to clutter the comments section and get in the way of actual debate on the subject. You have a right to your opinion, but so do I and so does everyone else here, and they have the right to state their opinions without fear of subjecting themselves to your abuse.Adam Brickley, aka "ElephantMan"https://www.blogger.com/profile/04584746741195370549noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4730083868431882878.post-48774908687450305032007-06-29T18:31:00.000-06:002007-06-29T18:31:00.000-06:00Steve-Frank Murkowski's approval rating was only s...Steve-<BR/><BR/>Frank Murkowski's approval rating was only slightly better than GWB. Many were surprised that he ran at all. I think he was convinced to in order to give Queen P some credibility and boost her 'outsider' image. Which was totally contrived because the only way a Republican was going to get elected was as an outsider. There was a lot of anti-Murkowski votes and pro Knowles votes that went to Queen P along with the women and conservative christian vote that basically handed her the Republican nomination. In the General, there were many people that remembered Knowles last term as Governor and weren't eager to have that repeated. The best candidate was Halcro, who made Queen P look and sound stupid every time they were in a debate or shared a forum. Unfortunately, not enough Alaskans thought Halcro could win as an independent so the anti-knowles vote went to Queen P. Even then, she failed to get more than 50% of the votes cast. Perhaps you should do a little more homework before you accuse others of being "anti-female". I would support Condoleezza Rice for President. I did support <A HREF="http://alaskanbest.com/exact.php?as_epq=Arliss+Sturgulewski" REL="nofollow">Arliss Sturgulewski</A> for Alaskan Governor back in the '80's. Queen P isn't qualified to carry either one of these very smart, accomplished, women leaders purses.<BR/><BR/>Elephantmant-<BR/><BR/>Yes it is a joke, you just don't get it. You are pimping a VP candidate that hasn't accomplished ANYTHING. She's only been in office for 6 months. Where do you get the silly notion that she is either successful or effective as Governor? AGIA is doomed to fail to bring a gas line to Alaska according to most knowledgeable industry experts. Her popularity will take a huge hit once people get a load of her idiotic budget cuts today. I know you all are banking on "Charisma" to carry the day, but without substance and vision, charisma is nothing but an empty promise.<BR/><BR/><A HREF="http://allalaskans.com/emperor" REL="nofollow">Emperor Rants</A>Bobhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11299207683810713287noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4730083868431882878.post-89069302135773671682007-06-27T14:10:00.000-06:002007-06-27T14:10:00.000-06:00Given her conservative, right-wingy views, I like ...Given her conservative, right-wingy views, I like Sarah as gov a whole lot more than I ever thought I would.

I'm trying to be nicer about my blogging... ;-)<BR/><BR/>I like both your blogs, and would support in theory Sarah as VP. I'd hate to lose her AK gov, and ultimately would wind up not voting for her if she ran for VP.

It's refreshing to see courage in a leader.<BR/><BR/>And as for Bob's comment, everybody starts somewhere; Palin's roots as a small-town mayor are humble and respectable, and only serve to highlight the same tenacity Ishmael observes, which is what's carried her to where she is today. The idea that a small-town politician is somehow inherently inferior to a big-city politician is, quite simply, tripe.JBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13170002708899656433noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4730083868431882878.post-88086539580540814372007-06-20T19:39:00.000-06:002007-06-20T19:39:00.000-06:00Emperor...this is not a joke.

Emperor Bob should do his homework rather than falling into the anti-female rant. Here's my update on how Bloggers for Palin is going as of Wednesday, June 20:<BR/><BR/>DanaS from California signed up today for Blogger 4 Palin. He blogs at http://behindtheliberallines.townhall.com/Default.aspx<BR/><BR/>He joins the others palinforvp has listed, and several other individuals are at the "tipping point" in joining the effort. We will have 100 bloggers by Labor Day and perhaps sooner. Ishmael, please join!Stevehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15656980898638651709noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4730083868431882878.post-1524088986579231992007-06-20T16:38:00.000-06:002007-06-20T16:38:00.000-06:00Sarah got her nickname when she played high school...Sarah got her nickname when she played high school basketball, but for the same tenacity she's showing now.Ishmaelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10716852378523184789noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4730083868431882878.post-33376943195736145622007-06-20T00:34:00.000-06:002007-06-20T00:34:00.000-06:00Is this a joke?

You can't seriously be suggesting that a small town mayor that lucked into a Governor's seat with less than 50% of votes cast is the best that the Republican Party can offer as a VP candidate.<BR/><BR/><A HREF="http://allalaskans.com/emperor/" REL="nofollow">Emperor Rants</A>Bobhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11299207683810713287noreply@blogger.com
