So maybe this would be a good time for mom & dad to take a look at their public school's curriculum and demand that it be fact-based, rather than faith-based.<br /><br />Because there are some very interesting donations and political hand-ups going to institutions that promote 'intelligent design' as a replacement for hard science in the classroom. I'd call that a good way to soften the ability to see fact into the acceptance of perception. Which would be a Palin thing... hmm?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9361564.post-21035008183248784302009-11-15T19:58:21.066-09:002009-11-15T19:58:21.066-09:00"If Barack Obama does a great job, then she w..."If Barack Obama does a great job, then she will only keep a rabid, racist, group of fundies paying attention to her.

They are created by the attacks on other countries. This is especially true of a situation where the war was started based on lies, greed, and crazy religious beliefs. Obama's decision on Afghanistan could increase or decrease terrorism for many on this planet, that is why it is so important to weigh all the factors.Celia Harrisonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15733639730157569439noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9361564.post-56419520032997324302009-11-15T19:29:54.219-09:002009-11-15T19:29:54.219-09:00The fact of the matter is, Palin showed herself to...The fact of the matter is, Palin showed herself to be a complete fraud long ago.

She'll try to say she suffered so badly that she had to adopt a Down's Syndrome Baby for the loss of her own.<br />I also think she is scared shitless about Levi having anything to hold over her head. Or maybe she sick of paying people to be quiet. In Sarah's warped, twisted logic, she thinks that her admitting to lying about a pregnancy will make her out to be more X-tian.<br /><br />She is one twisted bitch. And we all know that in her worshipers minds, she can simply do no wrong. She could have murdered Trigg's real Mama and they would find justification for it.<br /><br />I hope that you have a lot more than babygate to reveal about Palin.

The Christian school population here is abundant; growing up our neighbors were not allowed to talk to us or play with us as we were "public school" kids. We would watch them "stroll" on Sunday afternoons in their "church clothes" waiting around to go back to church in the evening.<br /><br />Churches in this area have thousands of members! You can't swing a dead can in West Michigan without hitting a church or a golf course. She will be right at home here! I just hope she leaves!!<br /><br />And, FYI, Portage Michigan is only 45 miles south of where I live - Track was right at home here (but his hockey team sucked!!).Sophiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16146166181483967337noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9361564.post-33733864208917756832009-11-15T12:32:10.429-09:002009-11-15T12:32:10.429-09:00@12:20 - Harper Collins chose Palingates because H...@12:20 - Harper Collins chose Palingates because HC was alerted by c4p - they had a little "drive" last night with HC's contact info, encouraging all in the sea of pee to take action!
