All the same tired old comments showing up here only prove how sure the Palin haters are of her chances to win the Presidency. Complaining about her using "crib notes" on the palm of her hand, compared to Obama's need to have his ENTIRE speeches displayed on his tele-prompter, makes about as much sense as school children arguing "My daddy's bigger than your daddy"... If you people can't put up any better argument than that, you need to just shut up and quit making yourself look so stupid--and you darn sure shouldn't be voting with that mentality. Discover and stick to the real issues, or reap the reality of your ignorance (it won't be pretty).

PJ's Girl---Ridiculous!!!! If you were that close to the tax bracket change, you could have simply refused your dividend... You do know that receiving the dividend is voluntary right??? You may not like Sarah Palin but she is apparently smarter than you. As for being white trash, again, what the hell are you talking about. Sarah and Todd had a good life, nice home, great friends and family long before she was mayor of Wasilla. My guess is that you were and still are the sandwich artist at the local Subway.

I live in Alaska. I certainly didn't want that extra $1200 on the PFD last year- it bumped me into a higher tax level- so in one hand Sarah giveth and in the other the Tax man taketh. I am so tired of Sarah- she is certainly as they say "white trash". If she wasn't where she is right now we might see her on Maury P.

George Washington- Not a lawyer Andrew Jackson- Not a lawyer Ulysses Grant- Not a lawyer Theodore Roosevelt- Not a lawyer Harry Truman- Not a lawyer Dwight Eisenhower-Not a lawyer JFK- Not a lawyer Ronald Reagon- Not a lawyer Nixon, Clinton, Obama and most of the others were lawyers. Hmmm. Maybe Democrat or Republican shouldn't be the concern... maybe previous profession should be taken into account.

It is easy to be a hater and easy to judge with only half the information. The media ran the election and controlled the information stream to the point that the outcome of the election and the general public's point of view was pre-determined by others in powerful positions. It is amazing that a Free Nation of People would allow themselves to be brainwashed so easily. Personally, I hate what Obama is doing to this country. The errosion of the middle class, his lack of decisive action on any real issue, and the fact that the things he has done seem to contradict campaign promises. I would like to see someone in the office that is not a career politician but instead a normal American like you or me making simple decisions in the best interest of American families and for the soldiers on the ground.
