When you have the time, try to listen to this interview.

Shannyn Moore (Progressive radio host in Anchorage) talks to Dori Smith of "Talk Nation" radio about her interviews with Sarah Palin and more...


Shannyn Moore ~ Anchorage, Alaska

"Shannyn Moore is one of Alaska's leading progressive radio personalities. Her blog JUST A GIRL FROM HOMER is attracting lots of attention because Moore knows Alaska Governor Sarah Palin well and has interviewed her many times. After her Air America radio station was taken over by Republican Party members, Moore stayed on the air interviewing and in some ways 'debating' Sarah Palin. In this half hour interview with Dori Smith of Talk Nation Radio, she talks about Sarah Palin's style, their mutual interests in fishing, and Palin's vote against clean water despite the consequences to the precious Salmon line. She says she is a genuine person but very easily manipulated, and that her loyalties to church and politicians like Sen. Ted Stevens make her a dangerous candidate for the office of Vice President."

Interview is almost 30 minutes long.. so pull it up when you have time.

And there was another interview on our local radio today between the Director of the Alaska State Troopers Union, John Cyr and radio announcer "CC" of the show 'Cutting Edge'.

That interview isn't up yet -- but it is an absolute MUST for everyone here to listen to.

It will literally BLOW YOUR MIND and you won't believe how much crap is about to roll down the pike.

I'm hoping that interview is up somewhere by tomorrow.

It's 1.5 hours long .. but is SOOOOOOOOOO worth it!

As soon as it's up, I'll start a new thread and post THE---MUST---HEAR---INTERVIEW of the campaign!!!

5. And Shannyn Moore on the Web - BTW KO interviewed her tonight

Today is a historical day for Alaskans. Having been born and raised here, I can celebrate whole heartedly that an Alaskan politician has made the national stage for something other than corruption charges. Wow, the nation is stunned…you have a gun, Lady? Really? Neat! Can we vote NOW? The story of a real Alaskan woman, mother of five, uber-pro-life, a creationist, loves Jesus, hates the devil, married to a real life stud…well, you just can’t write this stuff. If John McCain had selected my favorite Alaskan Conservative, my father, instead of Governor Gump, I still wouldn’t vote for him.

When it comes to being one breath from the presidency, my nostalgia for an Alaskan being in the White House wanes fast. I want a vice president with good judgment. I don’t care what gender you are, or what color you are…I want your brain to be connected to your heart and spine. After the debacles of Frank Murkowski, I was ready to give Sarah Palin the benefit of a doubt and line up as an Alaskan First, before party. She has shown weakness on a few key issues that disappointed me in the past few months, and now are red flags with her new job offer.

Last spring there was the big announcement of Sarah Palin’s 5th pregnancy. I’m pro choice, happy she was able to make whatever choice was best for her family. With her oldest child in the military, three more at home, and one on the way she was getting quite a bit done. I would have wanted a nap and a spa, but that’s just me. In the last few weeks of her pregnancy she was flying all over the country, Washington D.C. and then to a conference of Republican Governors in Dallas. Her water broke at the conference and she decided to fly back to Alaska to have her 5th child that she knew had downs-syndrome. She passes up some of the finest children’s hospitals in Dallas, Seattle and Anchorage, to fly hours and then drive to 50 miles to her home town to have her child. I admire her ability to hold a child in during all those hours and miles above the Earth, and her staunch loyalty to Alaska to deliver her baby on Native Soil. But had I been on board one of those planes on the way to take a loved one off life support, or be at a wedding, or job interview, or any other event that we get on planes for, and had to be diverted by a woman who knowingly got on board after her water broke, I may not admire her uterine control so much. Her lack of judgment for fellow passengers seems obvious, but for someone who is so pro-life it seems reckless.

As Governor, Palin did bring back a special session to fix the previously bought tax on the oil industry. Not giving away our State’s resources doesn’t constitute standing up to Big Oil. I’m sure it feels like it with the pressure of the most powerful lobbyists in the world, but it just isn’t. It is standing UP for Big Oil to sue the federal government for listing polar bears on the endangered species list because it could affect future exploration. Alaskan towns are washing away, and our climate is changing. Permafrost is no longer “perma” in many places. The rapture is not an environmental policy.

I’m all about killing and grilling moose. So is Sarah. But to the degree she will influence elections by spending $400,000 of state money to propagandize her position to shoot wolves and bears out of planes is bizarre. You would think Alaska has a ban on the importation of Viagra for all the fervor to chase animals with airplanes.
