AIP now wait, thought it was a milti group as its leader was calling for Alaska to secced from the USA.. some old guy was the leader there and very outspoken .. AND they were ( by media accts )very right wing ..
stands to reason that if Todd Palin was in that she would be to ..
Joe Vogler died in 1992, I believe. He did have some secessionist ideas. These days the AIP seems to be more of a states rights type of group than anything else. I don't think they are involved in any militia type activities. It does attract its share of the right wing, though.
Sarah Palin was never a member. Husbands and wives are allowed to belong to different political parties here
If you would have bothered to listen to every thing she said, you would know that she is quitting because she is fiscally responsible to the people of Alaska. She made it very plain that after having to spend 2 million dollars defending herself of false and stupid charges, and by the way, all thrown out, she was becoming too much of a hinderence in getting the job done as too much focus on her. She did this for her state. That's what she said, I believe her, and I think she did the right thing. I admire someone who thinks of their state first. Unlike Mark Sanford, she has a heart, and is a true American. He's a middle-aged , never mind, I just can't stand him and I won't say anymore. Anyway, Just get out of your hate mode and put yourself in her place for one minute.
I agree she did the right thing.
We disagree on her motivations, but we'd both be speculating.
True american.
Native american?
What do you mean by true american?
I don't care for Sanford either.
He occasionally reminds me of droopy dog, though.
"Griffin said to Gov. Palin: "Governor, you've been mocked in the press, the press has been pretty hard on you, the Democrats have been pretty hard on you, but also some conservatives have been pretty hard on you as well. The National Review had a story saying that, you know, ‘I can't tell if Sarah Palin is incompetent, stupid, unqualified, corrupt or all of the above.'"

say it aint so....how dare you say that about any republican......
Well, in spite of what the Obamabashers on this board may think, I'm pretty much a Centrist kind of voter - Left of Center to be sure, but not THAT Left of Center and I'm certainly open to voting for a Republican (assuming it's the right Republican). This last election for example I was a happy camper - at least until he picked Palin (it became apparent how ignorant she was). Though I preferred Obama, I would have been "OK" with McCain - because he is pretty much a Centrist like myself (in his case a bit Right of Center, but that THAT Right of Center). In truth, I would rather have someone on the opposite side (as long as he/she is not TOO far on the opposite side) who was capable than someone on my side that is incompetent - and my opinion is that Mitt Romney is pretty capable. I would prefer Obama over Romney, but I wouldn't be crushed with Romney as President (at least with what I know of the guy).
Yup. Romney is one of those folks who even if I disagree with, I can still respect and admire - mainly because he's clearly SMART and CAPABLE (unlike Bush or Palin). I think he would probably make a very good President.

While I agree with you completely, the fact of the matter is that his grandparents on his father's side had to flee to mexico because he was a polygamist ... cutting the base loose or not, this won't fly with the evangelical base.
First Bobby Jindal goes kenneth the page
Sanford does the horizontal tango
Now Palin quits
who's next??? What's an anti-choice bible thumper to do? Michael Steele has to be sitting in a corner twitching 'bout now.
Where is the original transcript or video from the National Review's interview with palin.
Usually a news buster type organization will provide proof when they debunk a statements.
Watching press coverage of the Republican candidate for vice president, it’s sometimes hard to decide whether Sarah Palin is incompetent, stupid, unqualified, corrupt, backward, or — or, well, all of the above. Palin, the governor of Alaska, has faced more criticism than any vice-presidential candidate since 1988, when Democrats and the press tore into Dan Quayle. In fact, Palin may have it even worse than Quayle, since she’s taking flak not only from Democrats and the press but from some conservative opinion leaders as well.
