Wasilla, Alaska--If You Lived Here, You'd Get Pregnant Too

236.com:

A lot has been made of VP nominee Sarah Palin's experience as the mayor of Wasilla, Alaska. Her running mate, John McCain, has listed the gig as one of many reasons he has full faith in Palin, and the nominee herself brazenly claimed it was a tougher job than Barack Obama has ever done.

First, it isn't. But also, there is a legitimate reason for Palin to lean so heavily on her experience as mayor. We're all shaped by the places we grow up and Sarah Palin is no exception. After the jump, take a leisurely tour through Wasilla and find out how this small town made her the woman she is today.

Kings County, California used to be the state's leader in teenage pregnancies, until they got a movie theater in the county seat, Hanford.

This is a joke, right? I'm not believing this story. Real funny.

Good one!

Wasilla is already unfortunate enough to have produced Sarah Palin, why do we need to add insult to injury by dragging it through the mud too?

[Whinger]

I wonder does that apply to men as well?

Must be something in the air!

STHU with this sexist thing. This woman is all out on the attack and when someone calls her out on her dirt you cry sexist. well THIS woman has just switched. I don't need any whiners as my President and VP, I need REAL THINKERS, RESPONSIBLE and EXPERIENCED WITH JUDGEMENT in the White House.

Send your whiner back to her small town of 'Alaska COUNTRY'.

There's a saying, play me for a fool once and I'll EAT YOU UP!
