    Having read TIME interview with Ms. Palin...I am taken back by one comment she makes..."tapped to run for vice president."

    It rather reminds me of employees who say..."I wasn't looking for a job, they called me!" as if that somehow absolves them of the responsibility for the decision they made.

    Sarah Palin had a choice to make - no one forced her to run for vice-president. She said "yes".

    Spinning, spinning, spinning!

    Cool, so she is just another politician. Big shocker. Mrs. Palin the person... Cool. The politician? Not so good, now that she just up and quit.

    Anyway...


    Can we possibly focus now on the people actually IN a office that matters? You know, the ones flushing our future down the crapper spending money that does not exisit on things that won't add REAL jobs to the economy, ever. The people who have spent barely 5% of the FIRST "stimulus" (most of it is spent in 2010, a <shock> election year!), who are now talking about ANOTHER one! Or are you guys really so afraid of her that you must banter on about her? All this media attention is doing is making her book deal sweeter. Which is funny in a way...

    May I put in my 2¢ worth here? I don't like the EFCA because it seems to want to do away with secret ballots.

    Personally, I favor 'right to work' laws. So does my husband who, although retired, is still a member of the UAW.

    Alaska may be a Forced Unionism State but I am very much anti union. However union members should have the right to privacy and that includes secret ballots.
