Is Palin a Socialist?
Besides being (as was posted earlier) the executive leader of a state where its citizens receive a spread the wealth dividend check and the #1 state to receive the most congressional earmarked money, and, mayor of a city who's citizens receive 20x the national average of earmarks.

She also as Governor asked the legislature to give $1,200 to every Alaskan as energy cost relief. http://www.adn.com/legislature/story/442702.html

So Republicans do LOVE socialism. They LOVE their corporate socialism and they LOVE socialism so long as only they are the ones doing it. Ahhh, I see now.

2. While working Americans pay for their bridges, they stuff their pockets with oil money.
Socialism? I call it criminal.

6. That $1200 was on top of the nearly $2000
given out annually to every man, woman, and child in the state. All from the oil revenues from the North Slope production. This is the one of the main reasons for AIP, they want to control all of the oil in the state (without any revenue from oil leases going to the federal government).

It's a major socialist state.

$3200 per person. For Palin's family this year (not counting any current or new pregnancies by Palin children), that's $22,400 per year. Not bad. Of course, we pay for it every time we fill our tanks with gasoline.
