YOUR friend is this doctor?
Oh brother. Does this person know how large Alaska really is?
Alaska is more than twice the size of the largest of the lower 48 states, and the amount of Alaska underlain by permafrost is equal to the size of three Californias. Ten states are smaller than the area covered by glaciers in Alaska. If glaciers of the adjacent Yukon Territory and British Columbia that connect to Alaska's ice fields (often referred to as the Alaska-Yukon glaciers) are added, thirteen states are smaller than the area covered by glaciers.

Diminishing resources my arse.
Dear Jackie S.,
F.U.
Sincerely
Mr. Redneck
Also, what is all this crap about being a Bryn Mawr graduate. Are all Bryn Mawr graduates very, very truthful? Is it a Theology school? How does being a graduate of this school validate this letter?
Hillary Clinton is a Harvard grad and lies like a rug.
Please, from now on, whenever someone talks to me, I want you all to address me as a “Louisianna Tech Graduate”....that MUST weight my opinion. After all, they certainly know political corruption in Louisianna! LOL!
Who has the Palin Derangement Syndrome graphic? It belongs on this thread.
Nikos
As an Alaskan, I am writing to give all of you some information on Sarah Palin, Senator McCain's choice for VP. As an Alaska voter, I know more than most of you about her and, frankly, I along with countless others up here are happy as a bear at the beginning of spawning season. We're ecstatic that he picked her.
The most accurate description of her is that she's a down to earth “real” person. Her husband works in the oil fields of Prudhoe Bay and races snow mobiles. She is a life time member of the NRA and has worked tirelessly to preserve our natural wildlife here.
For example, when the caribou and even domestic wildlife, like dogs and farm animals were being ravaged by packs of wolfs, she supported a bill that allowed aerial hunting of them. Aerial hunting of these predators from helicopters and airplanes I know, sounds like an inhumane way to kill predatory animals, but up here it's the most cost effective and safest way, for hunters, to do this. These animals were so over populated they were threatening children and people working up here. I'll be happy to send you some information on this subject.
Before Sarah cameinto office, we had the lowest rate of high school graduation in the country, but she's improved that already. Sarah got the oil companies to kick in more to our state treasury. They didn't like the idea of paying more taxes, but on the other hand, Sarah streamlined the process so that they're now able to access oil and gas fields formerly not available to them. The increased revenues for the state are being used to improve our schools. And by the way, she even gave each of us $1800 when her budget was in the black at the end of the year.
In a time when our nation needs to reduce its dependence on foreign oil, she not only talks, but she takes action. She has been a strong supporter of increased drilling for oil and natural gas, but she's a strong advocate for other forms of renewable sources to. She's for wind, solar and geothermal. She's also for building more nuclear plants. She's shown that you can do this and still be environmentally sound. Do the people in the lower 48 think we'd let someone run this state who was not a good custodian of our land and waters?
Dear Fellow Freepers, I can post the rest of the letter if you'd like me too, but I think you get my drift.
Probably an al Qaeda agent provocateur or a member of the legendary Taliban Fifth Column. Probably knows the late-and-lamented Adam Gadahn personally.
And who could blame her? If I were an American traitor like Gadahn I'd be scared shirtless of Sarah Palin, too.
Desperate times call for desperate measures. Expect to see more of the same over the next few weeks as the Liberals and other terrorist sympathizers get their nickers into ever-more-twisted twists.
This should be fun to watch!
Would someone who is actually living in Alaska describe Wasilla, which is about 40 miles NE of Anchorage, as "outside of Anchorage"?
Also, how difficult would it be to locate a woman named Jackie with a last name beginning with S, who lives within driving distance of Wasilla but not closer than that to any other city or town with a grocery and other stores?
If this Jackie S really exists?
LOL!! These are getting more ridiculously preposterous by the minute! Somebody has got to keep a running tab on these deviotic, absurd attempts by librals to trash Sarah!
I'll take a redneck any day over an elitist prick!
Sounds like one of those “composite characters” that media people like to create.
A clever tactic that will probably work on a lot a people, unfortunately.
That Elaine....so good of her to write! I noticed the Alaskan accent, right away. They have a certain way of phrasing things, don’t they? LOL!
Dear Nikos,
Thanks for forwarding the email from Jackie S, the doctor who says she lives here. What she says sucks wet dog fur.
She must be one of those doctors whose medical education was paid for by the state of Alaska, inturn for her agreeing to work in some of the more remote areas for a year or more. There are quite a few doctors up here, and they’re all mostly here because they want to be, and they love it. A few others, like Jackie, can’t wait until till their contracts are up so they can move back to New York or San Francisco.
Taks care, and be sure to come see me.
Love and kisses,
Elaine
RED nech town?????
My gues is the author of this poison pen piece was the New Yorker herself. It DRIPS with eastern liberal elitism.
I'll bet that's about 4 grade levels above any inner-city area in the Lower 48.
Don’t think I’ve ever done this but is this what they call “freeping” a poll? Here’s one you all might like:
http://www.courant.com/news/politics/hc-mccainveep2-poll,0,7720917.poll
Oh yea, and for a Redneck, she sure understands how politics work and ESPECIALLY how the media works.
She’s seems to be much more up to speed in this area than about 90% of today’s Republicans.
Not bad for a small-town hick. (ha ha)
PS-BTW, Nikos, I wouldn’t call Sarah a Redneck, although I agree she’s pretty tough. She drives herself to work in a Zamboni.
Okluvubye,
Elaine
