Either way, while in office/politics even such a shor time, she seems with her track record, she will not take crap from anyone.

Even if she is a very attractive women, she seems to have put a lot under her belt in her 44 years.

So, why not give credit due where it is due!

She damn sure cannot do any worse than what we have in D C now!

I'm feeling bad because it seems like I'm attacking groups who might have AIed famous people. I've really got no problem with that as long as the AI was AIed for reasons other than simply fame. Service in the same field, like Barbara Bush, sounds great as would any famous person who happened to have personal connections to a certain chapter or group.

Maybe she has done well but her stand on issues scares the hell out of me.

I agree! She won't take crap from other legislators, lobbyists, or foreign diplomats.
Just because she is from Alaska doesn't mean she is naive pushover. She has dealt with some of the most powerful lobbyists in the country as the governor of a state that is so rich in natural resources. She has stood strong against the big oil companies when every other governor before her had been bought out. Her state budget runs over 2.5 BILLION dollars!! Compare that with Arizona at 1.9 billion, Alabama at 784 million, and Illinois at 1.8 billion. If she was governor of any of these states she wouldn't be facing half the criticism that she is because of the false notion that Alaska is nothing compared every other state.

And just so this doesn't get deleted.... Sarah Palin was not in a sorority.

For the record, Gov. Palin (nee Heath) does not appear in the online directory for Gamma Phi Beta.

This is one of the most inconsistent things I've seen on here.

I expect this post to be deleted shortly, by the way. If it isn't, it's more evidence of inconsistency, because my post is not a direct reply to the OP.
This is really sad! I totally agree with you pbear!! When does a topic on GC NOT go off-topic. People need to stop getting their panties in a rut, and let threads be. What's more sad is that awkward's post were all deleted. So, the Alaskan GCer can't give her opinion on her own governor without her posts being deleted???

Did I set some kind of record or something for getting posts deleted right out of the shoot? Can't we agree do disagree as long as it is amicable and friendly? Sure the thread is about Sarah Palin's sorority affiliation but that can only go so far since we have pretty much established that she is not a member of an NPC group. How many different ways can that be said? It leaves some room for discussion of other aspects of Sarah's life that need to be vetted. Conversations that go on tangents are sometimes the best and most enjoyable of them all. IMHO some of those posts were damn funny and should have been saved into a GC hall of fame thread!

I assumed the posts taken out of here were merged into the McCain's Running Mate thread -- no, huh? Well that does really suck then.

No merge, just random, unwarranted deletes. I've had posts deleted before because they were part of a hot discussion, but never because they were off topic. I'm actually quite pissed about it. There was absolutely no reason to delete my posts, and others, while leaving up posts that were equally off topic both in this thread and in others.

It was incredibly arbitrary and petty.

Of the four candidates for president and vice-president, only John McCain attended an institution where there were no fraternities or sororities. The fact that NONE of the other three chose to join a fraternity or sorority, is very discouraging. Especially, since one of our strongest arguments for joining our organzations is LEADERSHIP DEVELOPMENT. I hope this is not a trend, but I suspect it is.
