War by Other Means
What we lack as a species is a moral-spiritual force for healing that is the equivalent of any of the great mechanisms of destruction we have developed over the millennia in our obsession with dominance.

Seems to me that Keenan's supposition makes Palin out to be smarter and shrewder than everyone gives her credit for.
Make up your mind detractors, is she smart to resign or not?
And listen to all the vitriol you guys and gals spew day in and day out. Why do you have so much insecure hatred in your life?
If Sarah's such a loser why waste so many keystrokes on her. Why is she so horrible to y'all. I just don't get it. So sad.
And listen to all the vitriol you guys and gals spew day in and day out. Why do you have so much insecure hatred in your life?
The same can be said for all you obama haters. Why all the hate?
Typical Republican move. Just like George W. Bush started an unjust war w/ Iraq, managed it poorly, and left the mess for someone else to clean up, Palin is doing the same thing to the Alaskan people. Cutting and running......she's not fit for public office.
FINALLY!!! someone posts the real truth.
From Alaska Daily News
From Kyle Hopkins in Anchorage --
Forty percent of Republican voters nationwide say Gov. Sarah Palin hurt her chances of winning the party"s nomination for president in 2012 by resigning as governor, according to a new poll from Rasmussen Reports.
The national polling firm conducted a telephone survey of likely GOP voters after Palin"s surprise announcement that she"s leaving the job. Only 24 percent said quitting helps her chances. Another 28 percent said it doesn't matter either way.
What else did pollsters find?
Palin remains a polarizing figure, even for Republicans. Those polled listed Palin among their top two choices for Republican presidential candidates in 2012. The survey asked who people would vote for in their state's primary. Palin finished just behind Mitt Romney and ahead of Mike Huckabee on GOP wish lists.
But in the same poll, Palin ranked among the two candidates they"d least like to see head the Republican ticket. She tied with Mississippi Gov. Haley Barbour, who is still an unknown to many Republican voters around the country.
Palin"s decision to resign played better with conservative Republicans than moderates, the poll says: GOP voters who are Evangelical Christians are fairly evenly divided but a narrow plurality say Palin"s resignation helps her political chances more than hurts them. But the plurality of other Protestants (41%) and Catholics (46%) disagree, seeing the governor"s move as hurtful politically.
THIS should be front page news in AK!
