R richard, i swear, you just won't do. *your response just tickles the hell out of me (as they say down in rowan county). truth is, if you could collect a similar statement from sen. obama, you would be dismantling the damn thing on roff for a minimum of three hours, daily, ad infinitum. *politics aside, the lady is simply an utter failure in her efforts to use the english language as a method of communication. yfitons wayno- Hide quoted text - Ditto on Wayne's comment. And . . . Richard, Alaskan politics and corruption make your part of the country and NJ where I started look if not squeaky clean, at least not in the basement. That, and her fibs, not just her words per se, is what gives the belly laughs in the NW to her candidacy. Sarah as a "reformer?" All things are relative but Sarah, or frankly any Alaska politician of the last few decades, are walking ethical time bombs, D or R. The process of building up a Resource/Govt largess based State has always been messy. Words like "conflict of interest" and "conservative" just do not have the same meaning up there. Folks who don't know that may know Alaska from the tour ships but not much else. Alaskans as a group are some great people, and fun, and Alaskan women are in a class by themselves if one appreciates strong, athletic women as I do. But clean politics? NFW. She is getting a bad wrap on some of the regional speech patterns. Folks in the PNW say "You Betcha" all the time. And "fer sure," and some Chinook jargon words like "skookum" etc, sometimes we use flat Native American inflections and word order, and lots of hard "R"s etc.. That is how we often talk to one another and I would guess that she is a bit more that way because she hasn't traveled much out of the PNW. But who ever came up with Palin, whoever was supposed to vett her for the Rs, deserves to be shot by the Rs. And on her and her husband's ultimate ethical demise . . . I will give odds for a modest bet. Dave The days of drunk 14 year old Native American prostitutes rolling around in the bar floor sawdust of Juneau during the legislative session/cum Mardi gras, may be over, but crooks still abound in the Chambers who rue the little progress thats been made. |
