I don't think it gets counted when we watch things here on DU but if you click on the link youtube will count it and with enough votes it will get to the front page there and be seen by more people.

Thanks so much. :grouphug:

[livetohike]

[Maraya1969]

36. Clicking 5 stars, favoring and leaving a message all help to get the video

on the front page. But I just checked and it's on the front page of the political videos and either the 2nd or third of the regulars. Before that I couldn't find it except for the link from here.

So we are doing good!!! Thank you to all.

[SammyWinstonJack]

55. I can't watch it either.

:cry: :mad:

62. I watched it..

it took me from hating her, to HATING HER. From thinking that she is evil, to thinking she is atune to the devil. From worrying about her ever getting to the WH, to being terrified of her ever getting into the WH.

You all know that mccain idolizes Teddy Roosevelt. Look at the history of Teddy and then look at the things/decisions mccain has made and it lends a bit of understanding to the man. HE IS INSANE!!!!

35. Here's a good article as well from Salon-Has link to video

http://www.salon.com/env/feature/2008/09/08/sarah_palin_wolves/

Sept. 8, 2008 | Wildlife activists thought they had seen the worst in 2003 when Frank Murkowski, then the Republican governor of Alaska, signed a bill ramping up state programs to gun down wild wolves from airplanes, inviting average citizens to participate. Wolves, Murkowski believed, were clearly better than humans at killing elk and moose, and humans needed to even the playing field.

But that was before Sarah Palin took Murkowski's job at the end of 2006. She went one step, or paw, further. Palin didn't think Alaskans should be allowed to chase wolves from aircraft and shoot them -- they should be encouraged to do so. Palin's administration put a bounty on wolves' heads, or to be more precise, on their mitts.

In early 2007, Palin's administration approved an initiative to pay a $150 bounty to hunters who killed a wolf from an airplane in certain areas, hacked off the left foreleg, and brought in the appendage. Ruling that the Palin administration didn't have the authority to offer payments, a state judge quickly put a halt to them but not to the shooting of wolves from aircraft.

Detractors consider the airborne shootings a savage business, conducted under the euphemism "predator control." The airplanes appear in the winter, so the wolves show up like targets in a video game, sprinting across the white canvas below. Critics believe the practice violates the ethics of hunting, while supporters say the process is not hunting at all, but a deliberate cull.

-----

Gordon Haber is a wildlife scientist who has studied wolves in Alaska for 43 years. "On wildlife-related issues, whether it is polar bears or predator controls, she has shown no inclination to be objective," he says of Palin. "I cannot find credible scientific data to support their arguments," he adds about the state's rationale for gunning down wolves. "In most cases, there is evidence to the contrary."

Last year, 172 scientists signed a letter to Palin, expressing concern about the lack of science behind the state's wolf-killing operation. According to the scientists, state officials set population objectives for moose and caribou based on "unattainable, unsustainable historically high populations." As a result, the "inadequately designed predator control programs" threatened the long-term health of both the ungulate and wolf populations. The scientists concluded with a plea to Palin to consider the conservation of wolves and bears "on an equal basis with the goal of producing more ungulates for hunters."

54. Just got this email from Defenders of Wildlife

Kathryn -- It's only been a few hours, but the response to our hard-hitting new television ad highlighting Vice Presidential candidate Sarah Palin's brutal record on aerial hunting of wolves has been phenomenal!

Thanks to the contributions of more than 4,500 caring wildlife supporters, our powerful Palin ad is already airing on television stations in Ohio. With your help, we can air it on television in another important swing state: Florida.

Can you contribute $40 or another amount to help run this ad in Florida?

Governor Sarah Palin could be just a heartbeat away from the White House. Please help us fight to provide a voice for wildlife and get the word out about her brutal record on aerial hunting before it's too late.

With Gratitude,

Rodger Schlickeisen
President, Defenders of Wildlife Action Fund

P.S. Today, we've received calls from ABC, NBC, CNN, the Wall Street Journal and several Ohio newspapers -- all interested in the ad that you're helping to run. Please donate today to help ensure that even more people know the truth about Sarah Palin!

I want someone to explain to me how a person can be pro-life but pro-war, and a "Christian" but willing to kill God's innocent creatures. What kind of a sick individual would consider killing wildlife from a plane "sport". These people are godless, and truly, throughly evil.

[spindrifter]
