Her answers had that, It's not what I think as more of it's the way its going to be flavor. She didn't blink about the VP offer because she already knew and McCain was informed that she would be the pick.

A long time intern of the Eagle Forum and her college hoping seems to me more like a plan than a quest for education.

But that's just my take.

2. Very possible it was all a set-up and a lie.
They have no integrity about anything and manipulate at every turn.

4. John...Please explain about the Eagle Forum comment.
It seems everytime I see "Eagle" in an organization's name it's a crew of right wing nut-balls...

5. Founded by Phyllis Schlafly, one of their specialties was to train people
to get on PTA boards and School boards on the stealth to get control of the text books and introduce their agenda once they had a controlling majority. Also, this group had connections deep within the government.

6. Thank you...
It reminded me of the "Gathering of Eagles" demented right wing bikers and a post yesterday about a group of medical "professionals" backing the involuntary drugging of "excited" people being held by the police in a large city with a tranquilizer that also induces amnesia that called themselves "eagles" something or other...appearently there are NO liberal eagles...
