    Sarah Palin & the Alaskan Independence Party

    Why does the old fella's VP support and speak at another party's convention - the Alaskan Independence Party - a party founded in 1978 to promote the Alaskan independence movement! :)

    It makes you question the old fella's judgement .... and she could be just a heart-beat away from the Presidency of the US!

    Sarah Palin's ties to Alaskan Independence Party are played down

    The McCain campaign denies his running mate supports the party's separatist bent.

    Tonight, Sarah Palin will be nominated as the Republican Party's choice for vice president of the United States.

    But back home, she has cheered the work of a tiny party that long has pushed for a statewide vote on whether Alaska should secede from those same United States. And her husband, Todd, was a member of the party for seven years.

    "Keep up the good work," Sarah Palin YouTube - Sarah Palin and the Alaska Independence Party. Palin addresses AIP convention to their convention six months ago in Fairbanks. She wished the party luck on what she called its "inspiring convention."

    The Alaskan Independence Party, founded in 1978, initially promoted "the Alaskan independence movement." But now, according to its website, "its primary goal is merely a vote on secession."

    Don't think that's why there's no one commenting...

    All great religions, in order to escape absurdity, have to admit a dilution of agnosticism. It is only the savage, whether of the African bush or the American gospel tent, who pretends to know the will and intent of God exactly and completely.

    To me, it looks like a Governor being nice and sending a video to some of the citizens in the state that she is Governor of, and telling them to have a good event.


    Politicians are like diapers, they both need changed occasionally for the same reason.


    Calling an illegal alien an "undocumented immigrant" is like calling a drug dealer an "unlicensed pharmacist"


    The hard work of one will do more than the prayer of millions.
