20061000 Meet the AK Gov.-elect Sarah Palin Family

[dabbaltimore]

You already let Alaska down by quitting the job as Governor if you will do that to Alaska I can imagine what you would do to this country as President! You are a NIMWIT sarah palin.

[whoo689]

Lol. Was this ad made with Moviemaker?

[ellesstee]

Only thing missing in the family pics is the three legged dog and the toothless aunt. What a bunch of hillbillies.

[sarahPluvsabortions]

Baby alligators and baby republicans both start out so cute. But then they get big, ugly and mean.

That's why eventually you have to flush them down the toilet. Let's hope Bristol takes some birth control so she won't pop out a 3rd ummm errr I mean 2nd kid right away.

According to Bill O'Reilly Sarah Saks can be tutuored. I wonder if he would tutor Barrack Obama if it was him that was stupid.

[hplover09]

Thank you Gov. Palin. You are an inspiration to me and other people trying to make way for a better tommorow!

[pantex1928]

Palin supports a group, The Alaska Independence Party, who hate America.  In a video taped speech, she told them to, "keep up the good work." They want Alaska to secede from the nation. (their words, not mine). Obama was right in not wrestling with pigs, and sticking to the issues. Because, if you wrestle with pigs, you both get dirty, but the pig loves it.

[rugerAK]

Maybe you need to be the one examined.You could't recognize integrity if you saw it.Like I said.Look at the ugly people in office and who and how they got there.I guess I could have voted a few more times huh,seems like only the corrupt liberals can get away with it.

[rugerAK]

typical liberal crap.This family is nit picked to peices.How about the ugly woman michele,her wages almost doubled (approx 240,000)when her husband became senator.and,the institution she worked for got a lovely large earmarked bonus.hmmm wow it must be nice to be so poor.I hate the liberals.get some brains Conspiracy.Read the true crap on the Obamas.now wait 6 months and see how much you like this group you voted into office.we all will pay the price for your idiocy.They are all sewage people.

[Conspiracy2Riot]

This woman needs to be destroyed politically.

She's a POS.

[radnips]

I was slightly off. I tried posting a link but the post didn't show so google or yahoo palin taxes 2007:

Palin Governor income $125k

Todd Palin BP income $46k, fishing income $46k, dog race income $10k

Total $217k.

Alaska also paid $17k for Palins to live at their home; and $43k for their family to travel. Each family member also got $1654 in oil royalties so about another $8k.

Total $285k.

[zeecee1]

Obama's tax plan says that if you have a gross income of over $250,000 then you're 'upper-class' & the Palin's don't hit that, THAT'S my point. You're adding in things that weren't counted towards gross-income, & so the Palin's ARE middle-class according to Obama

WASHINGTON (AP) ― Republican John McCain's campaign says Sarah and Todd Palin had a gross income of nearly $170,000 last year and paid nearly $25,000 in taxes

If you're still baffled I can post more sources but I ran outta space :-P

[10kzebra]

Wow, a whole commercial about her plane... Remember guys, her and Todd have always been middle class, she said so in her VP debate.

I'm upper-middle class, where the hell is my plane???

[zeecee1]

Her tax returns show her family making around $166,000, which is a lot but not as much as I think most people thought. She doesn't even hit Obama's "upper-class" mark of $250,000.

[radnips]

I believe they made about $250,000. She made about $166k as governor and her hubby made about the same.

[zeecee1]

Nope, that was their gross income. Just looked it up again to be sure. All major news sources report that the $166 was the combined total - Todd Palin only made about $40,000 as a commercial fisherman and she made $125,000 as Governor.

[sballer18]

lol. Alaskans hav planes there are many places u can't get without them if u vacation there you can fly into the mts. amazing. my poor farmer neighbor has one of those lil planes like that

[akb168]

Pretty ironic that Todd Palin flys this plane but does not have a valid seaplane license. Checkout the Earth Bound misfit blog entry. Google search: palin seaplane license misfit for the link with more details

[abiola88]

haha i really want to

[wcstflyer]

You have to admit having the friendly family float plane parked on a dock in front of the Palin lake house is a great advertisement for Alaska. No matter your political beliefs, the Charlie Gibson interview showing the Palin home and lawn with the trees beginning to change color, and the Piper Super Cub parked dockside all combined for a great travel log visual.

[sleds12]

obama is so radical, while mccain isn't..

[livegems]

The only moral choice is Obama. McCain kills people for money (Iraq etc) and Palin is of the same cloth and is in any event just a convenience choice.

Obama is a centre guy who cares about everybody.

America is viewed with disgust and distrust by foreign countries after Bush, particularly after his re-election. Change it and get back back in the world's good books, and vote for Obama.

[KrisMayeaux]

Moral? Obama voted repeatedly to kill living babies who survived abortion. These were the most innocent and helpless of all. This is a true Obamanation in God's eyes. Why is Obama planning to send troops to Afghanistan - what's the difference? Someone might actually get killed! Is it immoral to help our neighbors who are being killed? Like all of Sadamm's millions he tortured and killed? McCain refused release from POW prison until all those before him were released - a REAL man of integrity.

[benbulla]

Brilliant, beautiful, strong, & smart. Sarah for President, 2012.

[redwhiteandblue80]

yeah she sure was brilliant when she said she could see russia from her house hhhhhhhiiiiiiiihhhhhhhhhhaaaaa­aaaaaaaa you redneck!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[sleds12]

Theirs plenty of great family's around the world that there daughters get pregnant, (miss birth control, condom break ect.). shes 18 in under 200 days, and you call her a child? its absolutely moronic to be disregarding her daughters mistake on her leadership ability's, shes a Governor, and a good one. How do you know Obamas kids wont get pregnant? what are they 10 at the moment?

i don't support either candidate.

[eagles1177]

BARACK HUSSEIN OBAMA is the greatest MUSLIM/CHRISTIAN leader of our time....He is practically the 2nd coming of MOHAMED/JESUS....When he is sworn in on the KORAN/BIBLE, it will truly be a joyous day....Anyone that doesn't vote for this man will surely go to HELL/HELL!!!!!!!....LOL

Remember An OBAMA Nation == An ABOMINATION

[djhbythelake]

Are you flipping nuts or just plain stupid? I'd really like a straight answer.

Rule #1, no flip-flopping like your candidate.

[redwhiteandblue80]

fucking redneck

[blueguise23]

John McCain's pick of Sarah Palin is a SHAMELESS STUNT that puts the American people in jeopardy!

The GOP and their FAKE POLLS are trying to geer up to "steal the election" AGAIN ! Just like they did in 2000.

If Americans think Bush was bad, we haven't seen anything yet!

THIS IS NOT A JOKE - THIS IS VERY SERIOUS!

This is our future, choose wisely or stay at home!

[djhbythelake]

Oh please. Want to talk serious. Watch our country go straight to hell if Obama wins. He's a liar from the top of his head to the snake under his feet. Liars never prosper.

[isolationblues]

She is a one issue simple personality. She repeats well for propaganda, and she is good looking. She has five kids, one special needs. Bring tears to your eyes. Don;t have to think much with this one. Perfect, put her with a former POW Vietnam net notorious for emotional outbursts and flipping on issues, but covers well with his stoic stands. Keep it simple. Now, your ready to screw the country again. Rich get richer, middle class suffer more. Mission accomplished.

[lionsgateblows]

if families are supposed to be off the table...why is she using her entire family in this campaign vid

[plstkr07]

Isn't it interesting to note that Obama's tax plan will segregate taxpayers into those who are very successful and therefore will be punished and the rest of us. This is socialism and he is using class envy to try and get the vote. Hitler & Nazis did this with the Jews!

[mrfoxywhiskers]

I'm from the UK and watched late night her speech at the Republican convention. As I'm sure you might agree Brits have a good sense of humour, so can I just say her comment about Obamas tacky plastic greek columns being hauled back to some studio lot was HILARIOUS!!!

In one fell swoop she switched the image of razzamatazz stadium packed party to look superficial, over the top, excessive, and inappropriate. I reckon millions who were impressed at the time, began to look back at it differently?

[lionsgateblows]

well, the backdrop was meant to look like the lincoln memorial

and she can crack wise all she wants

almost as many people showed up for that speech as voted for her in her gubanatorial race

and neither of obama's kids are nasty whores

[artabn]

So sad to know she did not sit in a racist anti-white and anti-American church that celebrated the attacks of 9/11 like Obama and his spiritual mentor, Rev Wright. Go Barracuda!

[nowaterforhim]

Conservative women sure are better looking.

[Seatwa2]

Palin - LIAR LIAR SKIRT ON FIRE !!!!!

Look at Barack's record at

my.barackobama . com /page /community /post/The/gG5tCk

Find out YOUR Obama-Tax Cuts

ObamaTaxCut . com

See it for yourself !!!!

This woman is very deceitful !!! LIAR !!!

The new republican's puppet ... Sarah Palin

She gives puppets a bad name!!

[joreis88]

Sorry, Obama, neither the European brats/beer/concert bribe, oh, I mean, glitz-o-rama and faux Greek set-up didn't make you any more credible!

Go, McCain/Palin!

[Sanbar4]

McCain made one darn good choice here! I like this woman!

[hawkeyeC4]

...wait until the Debate..its going to be the show of the century!!!can't wait

[eagles1177]

PALIN knocked it out of the park tonight!!!!!.....looks like HUSSEIN OBAMA is in trouble now!!!!!!....LOL

Mccain/Palin '08....REAL change we can believe in!!!!!!!

HAHA....just remember An OBAMA Nation == An ABOMINATION

[travismk]

Sarah Palin is much more experienced than Obama and she is not even running for PRESIDENT. She was a mayor and a governor which means she actually was a boss of something and didnt just give speeches and vote like Obama. Don't let the Obama's sexist campaign fool you

[kwslowman]

Just say Nobama.

Now there is even more reason to Vote for McCain/Palin 08

[SunnyKid975]

Alaska State Senate President Lyda Green (R): "She's not prepared to be governor. How can she be prepared to be vice president or president? Look at what she's done to this state. What would she do to the nation?" (Green is from Palin's home town of Wasilla.) Alaska State Representative Mike Doogan (D): "Either Sarah Palin has talents and skills we were not aware of", or "John McCain fell down and hit his head". Doogan called Palin taking over as President "pretty scary."

[travismk]

Sarah has more experience than Obama and she isnt even running for PRESIDENT!

[bluecamaro98]

recent Google searches using only Obama's name plus one other word:

Obama + messianic 75,200

Obama + savior 226,000

Obama + prophet 312,000

Obama + Christ 504,000

Obama + change 4,540,000 internet postings indicate that many see Obama in not only political terms, but also wrapped in the untarnished cloak of some vague spiritual-awakening. Barack Obama simply is harvesting the fruits of 35 years of dumbed-down, political indoctrination in the guise of education

[fenwikandnunn]

Chick is a a close eyed Kunt. I've from Anchorage so I do have some knowledge of her unlike you Jesus Freaks who'd eat dirt if t he Republicans told you it was nutritious. I'm a christian but not an idiot. She's done nothing serious here in Alaska the 47th most populous state. Yeah, she's qualified to sit down with Putin. What a Joke.

[slobone]

Our 45th president?

[silverton7777]

She corupt

[electrodyne1]

Sarah P. had only ceremonial contact with the Nat.Guard. Claiming she has credibility as a wartime commander is absurd. And don't come back with Obama bla bla bla. Obama is very active on the Veterans affairs committee & gets twice-weekly briefings from a staff of military and foreign relations experts. He has been endorsed by several ex generals. Let's see the military endorsements for Palin. She didn't even have a passport until she went to visit the guard!

She didn't have a passport!

[JUNIOR4YOU]

She is under INVESTIGATION for corruption and ABUSE OF POWER in Alaska and is ANTI-CLNTON!!!

[ecwaufisxtreme]

Palin will be the trump card that hand it to McCain on a silver platter. Palin is GOD's CHOSEN ONE because GOD HERSELF see to it that a woman will become VP and later President long before an African American becomes president. Palin will fulfill GOD's word and will because GOD herself said so.

McCain will unfortunately croak and Palin will inevitably be THE 1st woman president. Even Hillary will not be able to win against Palin in 2012. GOD will see to it that it happens.

[taniwha9]

The lib reaction to Palin is basically: "why didn't the you choose the VP we assumed you would so we could continue to attack you for being predicable?"

[notehound]

People criticizing Palin's experience have not thought this one through. Her experience is the only experience that matters... ENERGY HARDBALL. She plays this game with the big boys and wins...

Since Obama lacks experience, I'm glad he chose Biden with his foreign policy experience. However, recent actions and speeches from Russia, Iran and Venezuela make it clear that for the next president, foreign policy is going to be highly dependent upon ENERGY policy.

Sarah Palin is no lightweight.

[ann1983iv]

Give it up,lady. You are toast.  How is that grandson doing?

[hesacting]

haha thats desperate housewives story the libs made up is fake.

Those pictures were taken 2 years ago according the alaskan news paper. Her infant is only 6 months old not 2 years old.

This is going to backfire on you libs just you wait and see.

[hesacting]

they will be blame the far left sites and make us look like a victim of liberal media.

Not only that you guys used up your free accusation card and cried wolf noone will believe you a second time. Once one smears turns out false all smears are degraded.

Polls will rise it will be glorious you libs.

[Albemarle7]

Nice airplane . But can it turn invisible ? :)

[HillaryfansforBarack]

obama/biden '08

[givethemahand]

Get the defibrillator and epinephrine ready

MUST Keep McCain ALIVE!!

Oh God he's Dead!!

PROP UP THE CORPSE...PROP UP THE CORPSE!!!!!!

Pretend he's still alive.

"Weekend at McCain's"

thanks to" Lez" for that one.

[antoniusalta]

This looks like films from the Canadian Film Bureau, about 1958. Except it's 50 years later! Does the expression TIME WARP seem appropriate? Egad! This lady is not just 50 years in the past with her views on creationism and reproductive rights, but really an amazing anachronism! Jeez! It's the 21st century! Wake up people!

[ss0rca]

It's amazing that liberals still cling to the idea that the timeline somehow makes a difference in anything.  There is nothing new under the Sun. Truth is paramount no matter if it is 2000BC, 1958 or 2008. Liberals try to belittle what they don't understand(kind of like 6th grade bullies), so they can live in their fantasy utopia, and reassure themselves that they posses superior intellect, denying truth and reality by embracing UNPROVEN THEORIES as the core of their beliefs.

[drebaugh]

well said. I could go on and on about lib concepts, but focusing on truth wants me to piont out to you Sarah Palin holds people accountable.

God Bless THE UNITED STATES.

GOD BLESS SARAH PALIN.

She is under considerable attack. Pray for her.

[ss0rca]

I am with you, Brother.

[misterjesp]

STILL, Obama can't hold a candle to Palin, he much rather shine her shoes--

obama has done nothing but take up space in illinois and washington-- he voted "present"(neither for or against)just about all the time in illinois state, and had a very quiet senate session in DC..........and we are just comparing the democratic presidential candidate to the republican VICE-presidential candidate!!!

at this point, obama cannot even stand in mccain's presence before melting! lol

[BBosage]

to dcyb: That little surprise package isn't even a year old yet so you do the math

[dcyb]

wheres the downs baby

[thedivinemisswhite]

interesting

[crock703]

Wasilla's population at election time was 6,500 - a town in America.

Alaska's is only 650,000+ at that.

Only served 20 months so far.

No foreign policy knowledge & experience, none.

No economic knowledge & experience.

The Bridge to Nowhere was dead before she arrived b/c of embarrassment from public outrage.

The $1200 gas incentive Alaskans love her for came from the State's oil coffers, not budget balancing/tax cutting.

She has an infant to take care of - it worked in Alaska, but D.C. is 24/7.

[synonys]

They were loading up that sea plane as if it were a minivan, life is different in AK.

[TheNarniaLampPost]

Angela Merkel of Germany is considered the most powerful woman on earth. She became the first woman leader of Germany with minimal foreign experience. Palin will do fine.

[dirtywest]

That is an excellent point. I think Palin is going to be a terrific VP, and the Democrats will regret underestimating her.

[ss0rca]

Good point.

[mostlydead]

This add says that she will make a way for new gas pipeline! Look it up she fights 3 oil companies then signs legislation with Daddy Bush's Conocophillips.

[floristmom]

Now will be the time to find out who in Congress listened to or took money from lobbiest to keep us from drilling for oil and make sure they do not get elected. We want people in our govn for once that will truly look at the problems and come up with solutions instead of line their pockets.

[carlton06]

the bullmoose is loony

[woodsrider117]

Family values? If you have a family of 5 and one is a newborn with downes syndrome...then you accept the nomination for vp? Family doesn't come 1st to me.

[floristmom]

For the first time in my life, my uncle who in the past would have never voted on a president with a woman VP said he will this time and he is 72 - I visited with a girlfriend who has been a staunch Democrate forever and she said today she was voting Republican because of Palin. I too am so very impressed and have never contributed to a Presidental Campaign but will this time.  Think it is the start of something great for the USA. Go John and Sarah!

[grommel7]

What it true family values? Dissing young gay people and not giving them basic benefits? Re-assest your definition of family values. It is getting old.

[PurposeDriven77]

It is so refreshing to see Sarah stand up for life, faith, and true family values.

[JDorsey2001]

Republicans actually promoting family values is like a volcano promoting not burying mountainside communities under ten thousand tons of molten lava: It only happens by accident.

[joshkennard]

GREAT!!! Now our taxes will go towards snowmobiles.. the "ARCTIC CAT ONE"

[jerricajerrica]

lets teach creationism in schools!!!!!!!!!! lets keep our children as backwards and stupid as possible!!!!!!!!!

[ss0rca]

Which one do you want? You can't have both.

[jerricajerrica]

they go hand in hand. thanks.

[ss0rca]

Maybe in Liberal....no wait, I mean Progressive....uh, er...Socialist....no that's not it.....Communist, that's right.

Maybe in Communist Fantasyland.

[jerricajerrica]

Seriously, is this 1950? shouldn't you be comparing this idea to terrorism - get with the program, it's 2008.

This comment is a perfect example of the stupidity that is encountered when teaching our children creationism in public schools. Keep it in your church, your house and away from my children. thanks.

[misterjesp]

jerricajerrica, can you disprove creationism with facts and empirical data??? show me that YOU are not backwards and stupid!!!

[jerricajerrica]

seriously, if i have to explain these things to you, you are a perfect example of why not to dummy down our children by teaching creationism. The fact that you HONESTLY don't know the difference between scientific theory/study and religious text written thousands of years is a PEFECT example of why it shouldn't be taught in schools.

[jerricajerrica]

"The average science score of U.S. students lagged behind those in 16 of 30 countries" We need to focus on improving education in this country so we can get to the top of list. Adding creationism will drop us to 30th place.

[veganchris80]

Mcsame,Palin 08. First order of business go hunting. Wow looks like a promising future. I cant believe people would actually vote for this ticket.

[areacable]

Sarah is great for our country!

[imafunkydancer]

What a pathetic ploy to try to move Hillary's PUMA's to McCain! He could have AT LEAST chosen one of the qualified and experienced Republican women OR a pro-woman (in policies) man.

[johnbowes]

"He could have AT LEAST chosen yada, yada, yada?" Well, AT LEAST his choice already has more experience than the Senator who has only served 123 days! sheessh...you've been listening too much to Queen's, "we will we will Barack you..."

[mississipiguy]

She is the NURSE of MCalzheimer!!!!!!!!

hahahahahahahahaha!

[evilliberal]

I was so looking forward to Romney vs Biden debating.

Now, the VP debate will be boring, because who wants to belittle women, especially a mother. I couldn't. I would end up standing there going "yes maam", "no ma'am".

Must be why McCain or Obama never called me for VP. Damn

[HollyAcres]

McCain goes VP hunting and bags another Quayle. In doing so, he destroyed his most powerful argument on why he should be elected: experience. With this weak, unknown choice in a running mate he's essentially handed the election to the Dems.

[gerkins1]

Sarah Palin is the Margaret Thatcher of America. She is Alaska's Iron Lady. You will love her as your President in 2012.

[flyboymd82]

Our next VP and then on to the Presidency!!

Obama who???

Can't wait to see this classy woman crush arrogant Joe in debate!

[moonjp]

This is awesome! Palin is a reformer and she has more governing experience than Obama who has none. She's smart, has real solutions, and a great personality! No disrespect to Obama, but Palin has concrete solutions unlike Obama's rehetoric.

[dasenuff]

sarah rocks-biden sux!..oh im sorry..didnt mean to say that...imean biden and nobam BLOW!

[torquetwo]

McCain and Obama are both worthless in their own ways. I am going to vote for the Hottie and at least get some aesthetic redemption. Oh! I like animals. They are good to eat.

[deepsouthhog]

glad to get a consevative prolife vp. if the liberal losers hate her that means she must be good news for us,

[PetsNeverEvenStep]

McSame and a Nobody

[goosehites]

my pants are moving!

[goosehites]

The next vice president of the United States of America, and sexy!

[Forcefedfocus]

typical republican idiot. McCain and Palin are playing to all the stupid Americans. dumbass inbreds

[millenniumdawg]

WOW......That's really the Democrat game plan. It's worked well for them for years now....Prey on the old , sick and young..the needy and the ignorant. Congrats..you fell right in line.

[TexanDeist]

She wants to destroy all the wildlife. Very very evil woman.

[istya]

I would say that's the dumbest thing I've ever heard, but then I read the next comment down...

[Dealit707]

Palen hates the United States of America. She wants to be the Queen of Alaska, and rule with an iron fist.

[selatik]

I'm hot for governor!

[lobobeans2]

hot but brainwashed...however, i did feel really really sorry for bristol. when she moved to juneaue everyone in our school was making a big deal about it, and she was STARED at so much, it must have sucked.

[karma101010]

yea but she has hot daughters!

[rigarick]

Sarah,

Your logo should read; "ALaska skrewing and freezing the lower forty eight"

or...."Arabs and oil sounds good to me"

Sarah Palin is the enemy of the United States of America

[rigarick]

OOOOOH! yea!!

[rigarick]

BLAH!BLAH!BLAH!BLAH!

[rigarick]

Alakans are going to rue the day they laid eyes on this America screwing bitch.
