Anyone have some good supporting links and info on any groundwork Palin did to help support domestic, sexual and child abuse victims in AK?

With all the coverage on her accomplishments, it's odd that her record on helping to improve support systems for abuse victims in one of the most violent states (specifically for women and children) is hard to find.

Yes, the charge for rape exams. Controversial indeed.

I wonder if there's any information out there about how she helped victims.

Wouldn't a strong female figure on the national stage be proud to talk about the strides and accomplishments she made in helping improve services for abused women and children in the state that she calls home?

Where's the info?

I was thinking the same thing.

They are scared to death of her.

If she was not any threat to their baby bubba they would not be so worried about her.

Just like they used to post daily death tolls of our brave soldiers, now they have focused on attacking Palin all day long.

They really should be focusing on helping the idiot in the WH do a better job instead of destroying our nation like he is.

I am married to a soldier so you can kindly refrain from lumping anyone who questions Palin into the ominous "they."

p.s. married to a soldier with multiple deployments. FYI

But I suppose anyone who thinks people are afraid of Palin really just cannot tolerate anything but adoring praise of her , hence the irrelevant comments

Maybe we should ask Palin to help the "idiot" in WH on international policy matters.
She masters the subject as she can see Russia from her Alaskan home, isn't that right?

This might interest you NomadScribe regarding Palin's focus or lack-there of up here in Alaska where in terms of rape we are sadly #1:

Remember, Palin had more executive experience and was far more qualified to be president than Dumbobama. The idiot in that office now is so dumb he's making Bush like a visionary president.

You people backed the wrong pony and more and more of you are realizing each day (save for those of you who come here under marching orders spouting the big lie each day).
