Palin will you marry me?
I know she is married, as am I, but OMG, surely we can get past those trivialities. I did some research on Sarah Palin last Friday when McCain picked her to be his VP.
I liked her then, thought it was a brilliant pick and last nights speech wrapped it up for me. She is so awesome, I expect her to be the next president after whoever wins this election.
She has the media and the left wingnut liberals in a tizzy as their heads are spinning around. They can't figure out what to do with this Barracuda from the North.
She clinched it for me last night. I'm not sure McCain can do better. I am so looking forward to seeing her in National politics for many years to come.
As one reviewer said:
"She was put on this earth to do two things: kill caribou and kick ass.
She is all out of caribou."
Until next time...

I especially liked the part where she lied about turning down the Alaskan bridge to nowhere and then insulted everyone whose ever done community service. That was awesome!
Also, she's a creationist.
She'll do a good job appealing to the nutjobs while McCain can maybe try to be sane again, though, so she may not be the worst choice. :)
Nice Alex. Too bad your wrong. So did Obama send you that talking point, or did you think it up on your own.
1. She did turn down the earmark to the bridge. And had it changed from 400 million to 250 million to be used on useful projects for Alaska.
2. She didn't insult people who did community service. She just said that doing community service doesn't qualify you for president.
And I like that she's a creationist. Unlike those who believe in the religion of evolution, which of course there are no facts on. But we teach it like there is no alternative.
I could get into all the lies Obama and his cronies are pushing but I think I'll put that in a blog post.
Oh yea, I almost forgot, you must have loved it when Obama insulted anyone who believes in any religion at all, Christian, Jew, Muslim, or other in the country.
Or when he insulted every gun owner in the country.
or when he insulted every person in any small town America.
Oh yea, he is such a great American. So Obama may not be the worst choice for President.
Then again, I could be wrong...he might be the worst. ;)
Oh boy, someone's been watching way too much Fox news.
No facts on evolution? LOL!
Well, no, I've believed that since long before Fox news came around.
Sounds like to much public education for you Alex.
You do realize, they could lay out everything they have ever actually found to "prove" evolution on your bed. With no pieces touching each other.
Its just not there. In fact, Darwin himself said, if certain fossils weren't found in x number of years, you should discard his entire thesis. And none of those has been found.
So yea, I'd say there is as much or more prove of creation, as there is evolution.
Its become a hardcore religion, where professors and hard core believers desperately try to grasp for relevancy and claim there is hard core evidence. But when asked to provide it? All you get is name calling and defensive posturing.
Please, feel free to point me to any number of sites that have "proof" on them.
May I suggest you set aside the indoctrination they gave you in school and actually look at the facts.
Now, do I believe in minor evolution. Yes, I do. I believe small changes can occur over many generations. Do I believe we came out of the water as fish? No.
Or evolved from apes. No.
Let me ask you Alex the same question my father once asked me. If we evolved from apes? How come more apes are not evolving?
We have the end, we have beginning, there should be a whole line of creatures in between, who are evolving?
My indoctrination is simply the Scientific Method.
I'm expecting this will all be falling on deaf ears, but here goes:
There's evidence of evolution all around us. Every domesticated animal that we've built our civilization on is the product of selective breeding - in other words, human controlled evolution. Every disease that we've wiped out of existence due to vaccines is evolution. Every crop that we've engineered to grow however we want it to grow is evolution. Vestigal traits that we and other species possess that seem to have no purpose are evolution. There _are_ fossil records that provide evolutionary history of all sorts of extinct animals. I could go on.
The idea that we're no longer evolving (which may or may not be true) proves nothing. Evolution has no final goal. There isn't some end game that it's aiming for. The tendency it toward the simple; if there's no need for evolution, it won't happen. That's why the vast majority of life on the planet is fairly simple.
The popular conception that we "evolved from apes" is rooted in an overly simplistic view of evolution. It's not like an ape suddenly grew a bigger brain and using tools. All life shares a common ancestral form; apes and humans just happen to be very similar.
Is Evolutionary Theory perfect? Of course not. As science, it's constantly tested. That's the whole point of science. They are constantly attempting to disprove it. There are controversies concerning the particulars, and any good science teacher would include that in the ciriculum. But there are no serious alternatives to it. It's pretty hilarious that Darwin is so frequently critisized when scientists have already modified so much of what was hypothesised in his day.
Creationism is a philosophy. There is just as much evidence that Odin or Zeus or the Flying Spaghetti Monster created the universe as there is the Christian God. It's impossible to prove or disprove. There is no evidence to study, no tests that can be run. It's impossible to experiment on or quantify God.
And that's fine. Science doesn't impede religion. It has nothing to say about religion at all. Many scientists are religious. Nobody is going to come to your house and say, "Sorry, science won. We'll take your soul now, please. Oh wait, it doesn't exist! Hah!"
If you want to create a philosophy class and present Creationism there, that's fine. Just don't go trying to change the definition of science and undermine everything that's been done for centuries.
Alex, never on deaf ears. Always love engaging debate as long as 'both' sides are listening.
You do need to read everything though. As I pointed out. Minor evolution, yes. Major evolution, no.
But at the bottom of a Palin will you marry me post isn't the place for this, let me start a new piece.
BTW, the Alaska Democrats came out and said, yes Sarah Palin stopped the bridge to no where. Hmmm, guess she didn't lie after all.
