Sarah defect already!

Was reading Salon.com's "Sarah Palin's Alaska" recap: It's huntin' time."  I was not aware, Sarah, that Alaska did not have grocery stores.  Most of my friends up in your world, don't have the money or the time to run around shooting things for food. 

My fav. bit of the article was:

"Let's go west young man," she says to her father, one foot raised high to walk purposefully towards her goal. "Uh, west is that way," her father says, turning her to face the opposite direction. 

"Well, then let's go EAST," she says triumphantly.

Which makes me wonder, maybe Sarah was looking at Canada when she thought she saw Russia from her backyard?   The best bit is always from Carrie B. (Anchorage, AK)

 

"Yes there are grocery stores.  For most of us, we don’t make millions by making fools of ourselves on television, so we can’t take weeks off to travel (quite expensively) across the state and hunt.  She is a joke and I refuse to watch her or her stupid, self portrait of our state.  She needs to defect......My kids have never seen a caribou outside of a cage.  I’ve only seen a handful.  I heard she was shooting wolves from a plane too.  But maybe not this week. I think she was going camping with that Gosslin lady.  I wondered why she was up here this summer with her kids."

Carrie you rock my dark sarcastic world!  As soon as I get 8 kids (or not) I will head north and you can show them how to shop at Safeway!
