If Alaska leaves the US, then the government cannot take away her neglected and ignored kids.

In order for Alaska to secede, doesn't it first have to be a relevant part of the union? I think they have the cart before the horse.

Alaska has oil. That would seem to be relevant enough.

Neither did Dick Cheney so he just made up his own job description, which I think was unconstitutional. The Constitution only gives two duties to the VP: take over for the president if he dies and preside over the senate. That is it. I welcome the return of the VP office to where it belongs.

It's too bad, though, that her daughter was punished with a baby.

you would think that Cali would actually want Palin to stay on the ticket in order to help Obama.
But he doesn't. He wants her off! And that's all you need to know folks. |

By the way, note that Tex attempts to bring up people Obama is connected to in one way or another in order to make the inference that Obama must be a bad guy. He knows bad people, ergo, we can assume he is a bad person with bad ideas. It is a total logical fallacy, but that has never stopped Tex once.
When Tex is presented with actual positions of Palin (she favors Alaskan secession), he doesn't need to make any inference about her belief system. She gave it to him. But he totally ignores those beliefs and asks us all to instead go back to the inference game with Obama. How do you feel about Alaskan secession, Tex? What do you think about the wisdom of electing someone VP who believes Alaska should secede, and that the vote to join the Union was unconstitutional? Let me guess: you would rather just keep playing the inference game with Obama. |

But the comparison is irrelevant. Obama's true qualifications are found in the Bible: "Behold, My Servant, whom I uphold; My chosen one in whom My soul delights. I have put My Spirit upon Him; He will bring forth justice to the nations." Let's just hope he comes unto his own, and his own receive him not.
