Palin's small towns suffering too: for over 4 years, local paper was full of foreclosure notices.

In her speeches, she talks about small town values but, under the Republicans, those small town values have gone down in every way.

Of course we all know that her "small" town is all white and is devoid of any community organizing. She doesn't mention that her small town has a problem with hillbilly drugs. Meanwhile she asked hard working Americans who were in danger of losing their homes to pay for her welfare town. Most Americans would be ashamed of what she proudly displays.

1. I think we should also be wondering where the money is coming
from that gets distributed to Alaska citizens. While the oil companies are hit for taxes, rents, royalties, or whatever that goes into the permanent fund, they pass that along to their customers, and that means us in the lower 49. As speculators drove the price of oil up, the oil companies raked it in, we paid for it, and Sarah parcelled it out to her friends and neighbors.

I think HER campaign slogan is "Alaska First."
