In the race between McCain and Obama I was already a McCain supporter ... despite the fact I cringe to the idea of another republican president .. but the Democrats have failed to present a viable option at this time.

As for Palin .. I am indifferent .. not sure if she was the right or wrong choice, but it's because I dont know her at all, in case somethign happens to the President, the VP needs to be somebody capable of running the country on it's own .. is she capable ? thats the question I dont have an answer to ....

I am under 45 years old,
I love the outdoors,
I hunt wild game,
I am a Republican reformer,
I have taken on the Republican Party establishment,
I have many children,
I have a spot on the national ticket as vice president with less
than two years in the governor's office.

Did you guess?

I am Teddy Roosevelt in 1900.


Hmmm...so Sarah Palin is not qualified but Obama is?

[warptman]

I don't know if I'm for or against them yet, I think that Palin would and will do better than what the current moronic VP, what has he done besides shoot someone?

Politicaly I'm registered as a Republican but I vote Libertarian.

There are a lot of email chains floating around out there with stuff about Palin, Obama etc. The timing is not coincidental and the stretching of truth, taking things out of context etc. in them is fairly common.

I would view any such "e-mails" with a grain of salt. I have had to direct my parents (die-hard republican) to snopes.com on several occasions so far after they mailed me anti-obama garbage.

I would check with snopes.com

Keep in mind that the particular email being discussed is a news digest, not a chain mail letter.

Further, not one word of it has been disputed or in any way shown untrue. It cites specific court cases, and is not without valid documentation of every single claim it makes.

This is what I was talking about on our subistence way of life compared to sport hunting. This information is available on the AST Site. This is why we don't like sport hunters!

I don't hunt and don't know Alaska law regarding hunting so please excuse my foolish question.

If a hunter is only interested in antlers, can he donate/give the meat to some one who wants it?

[warptman]

Nope.
