Since her appointment to John McCain’s ticket as the Republican Vice Presidential Candidate, it seems Sarah Palins fellow Alaskans have not been shy about selling her out, and pulling back the shroud of just who the hell she is.

It has been a long time since Americans in the lower 48 have given Alaska a once over, and really looked at it’s natural beauty, and the fishing industry that stuffs our fat asses with Salmon and other seafood delicacies.  Alaska is probably one of the last states in the Union with the most untouched wildlife.  I mean we have pretty much put housing subdivisions, and strip malls everywhere, and then we have the nerve to call wild wolves, bears, and deers a nuisance when they pop up in our backyards. (Hmm, who’s backyard is it anyway?)

Sara has a fix for that, she has a $150 bounty per head , for the wolves of Alaska.  Just because they exist.

Jessica and John Teel, year round residents of Alaska, are the webmasters of www.grizzlybay.org, a website dedicated to Alaskan Grizzlies and Preserving their natural habitat.  Yes the place that you watch on the Discovery channel with your kids…they live there.

There are some strong feelings about the Republican’s “goodbye girl” (I call her that because her appointment means that they can say “Goodbye to the Presidency“) , Sarah Palin in Alaska.  Her fellow natives are not afraid to let us all know about the lady who would be one single heartbeat away from the Presidency.

10 Things You Should Know about Sara Palin:

2. She believes creationism should be taught in public schools
3. She is opposed to abortion even in cases of rape and incest
4. She strongly supports big oil (her husband works for oil company BP)

7. She supports drilling in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge and anywhere else big oil wants

The Corruption in a nut shell : After she fired the Dept. of Public Safety Commissioner Walt Monegan. Palin pressured Monegan to fire her sister’s ex husband who is a state trooper, and involved in a custody battle with Palin’s sister. When Commissioner Monegan refused, Palin fired him.
