I don't think she's struggling to stay relevant: she's just supporting a program that benefits her state. Alaska's two senators (one Democrat, one Republican) have said pretty much what she said in response to the proposed cuts to missile defense. |

Civilisation, I vaguely realized then - and subsequent observation has confirmed the view - could not progress that way. It must have a greater guiding principle to survive. To treat it as a carcase off which each man tears as much as he can for himself, is to stand convicted a brute, fit for nothing better than a jungle existence, which is a death-struggle, leading nowhither. I did not believe that was the human destiny, for Man individually was sane and reasonable, only collectively a fool. I hope the gunner of that Hun two-seater shot him clean, bullet to heart, and that his plane, on fire, fell like a meteor through the sky he loved. Since he had to end, I hope he ended so. But, oh, the waste! The loss! - Cecil Lewis | |

Her daughter's ex-fiance, the father of her grandchild, says they practiced safe sex most of the time. That's the thing about defense shields. They have to have a very high success rate.

She is going to continue to protect us even while Mr. Obama is trying to cut this protection. She is so wonderful! Thank you Sarah! |

The Confederate soldier was peculiar in that he was ever ready to fight, but never ready to submit to the routine duty and discipline of the camp or the march. The soldiers were determined to be soldiers after their own notions, and do their duty, for the love of it, as they thought best. Carlton McCarthy | |

I was explaining apple's comment. Up until now, I haven't mentioned the fact that she was letting her teenage daughter I suppose that people who care about teenage pregnancy, the morality of premarital sex, good parenting, and things like that might think that has something to do with Sarah Palin. |

I don't disagree with that, Quirt. I don't see how that has one thing to do with the missile shield, though. Having to reach that hard, just to make a sarcastic dig, I hope poor Apple didn't pull a muscle, or something.

I understand you were being humorous (even if couched in yet another partisan misinterpretation), but that is not true. All a missile defense shield really has to do is plant sufficient doubt in the mind of any attacker. |

gosh.. i thought it a clever analogy.. one strike and you're out. i agree with Sarah on this one in part. a good defense is one's best offense. (i admit that i allude to the unfortunate protrayal of Palin as the champion of the purity platform )

Not really relevant to me either, Mark. She may well be a very good governer. Maybe that's the job where she really shines. I don't know enough about that. FWIW, I don't think Biden is relevant either, and he's actually holding the office that Palin was running for.

My opinion is that when politicians parade their unfortunate offspring in front of the long-suffering public as a demonstration of what freaking wonderful people they are - worthy of being displayed on Kelloggs cornflakes boxes and possibly even running for high office, that any little mishaps in said perfect family is pretty much fair game for the rest of poor schlubs to have a bit of a laugh. The irony is particularly enjoyable when some right-wing holier-than-though Christian Paragon of Family Virtue turns out to be raising teenage shag-machines. I know, I'm a bit of a pr!ck. What the hell. |

Ignoring the point about how the difference between MP's age and Lauren's is probably less than the difference between Bristol and the Quirtlets, are we?
