Come on Bob, get it right Todd was only a member for 7 years. Here is the link to their website this should help straighten things out:http://www.akip.org/

It’s kinda funny that McCain/Palin campaign slogan is Country First, and the AIP’s is “Alaska First.” Why doesn’t this article talk about Todd’s membership? If Michelle Obama was involved in a Party that wanted to separate from the U.S. we wouldn’t hear the end of it from the Former Maverick McCains Attack Party.

Look the liberals are running right now with there tails between there legs because they stood behind A nobody like Obama. They had a shoot with Hilary but they let it fall between the cracks. So now they will do what ever it takes to get Obama in the white House.

But now the people of America are now starting to see and hear what Obama is and who he is not!And a leader he is not. A terorist supporter and one who attended a racist Anti America Church for 20 some years with his wife and kids!

Obama is a security threat to the United States!

Well, consider that prominent members of AIP say that Palin was indeed a member, that much has been reported widely whether you believe them or not: Lynette Clark, the chairman of the AIP, tells ABC News that Palin and her husband Todd were members in 1994, even attending the 1994 statewide convention in Wasilla. Clark was AIP secretary at the time. Another former AIP official — Mark Chryson, chairman of the AIP from 1995 to 2002 — tells ABC News that “Palin was at the convention in 1994. She was there.”

That doesn’t prove it, but why would they lie? Did you watch the video of her praising them? (but she didn’t mention membership) Finally, registering Republican doesn’t prove anything since many politicians register mainstream for appearances and political purposes, but also join an offbeat party to support the movement.

The Obama campaign went off half-cocked with a rumor that claimed Palin was a Pat Buchanan supporter. The campaign issued a press release which claimed that Palin was a Buchanan supporter and that Buchanan was a "nazi sympathizer".

PAT BUCHANAN: If they do that, you end the moratorium on Rev. Jeremiah Wright, because Barack Obama's pastor and spiritual advisor for 15 years did run an anti-Semitic church, does run an anti-white church and has engaged in racist rants. And we were told that, look, this is off the table, those sort of things. And them to have them come up and, come after me, you open up somebody's associations? You open those up. You open up all of yours.

It must be those infamous "low level staffers", that Obama has been leading as part of his presidential training, who put out this wonderful POS.

Anyone who registers in time at Michelle’s blog is welcome to post. There are several liberal voices there. Unfortunately, most are of the troll variety.

If a person’s genuinely interested in debating or just making comments (devoid of the typical “you neo-cons this and that”)they can do so at MM.com.

I am weary from the Left’s continual barrage of nastiness, rumor, and vitriol. It would be nice to consider ourselves Americans again, rather than libtards and neo-cons. Yuck.

“Half the fun is watching you rip them up.”

The only substantive thing they stated was “It is NOT uncommon for fringe groups to attract mainstream pols to appear before their radical nature manifests.” which is something I’m quite certain you would rake any liberal over the coals with and which is certainly up for serious debate.

Past that they sounds like they’re about to have a heart attack. That’s funny to watch.

I should have said ‘thinking that she had been a member’ anyways I’m glad us moonbats can post. We might disagree, but at least you’re open to other voices. I am pretty unhappy that I can’t post to michelle malkin, redstate or hotair, so this is my conservative blog of choice!
