These were questions posed to her when she was running for governor.
Her answers give you at least a sliver of an idea of what she stood
for 2 years ago and may still stand for. How many of her answers do
you agree with, but more importantly, on the issues that matter most
to you personally, how many of her answers hit a home run for you?

1. Abortion should be:
Banned throughout entire pregnancy.
Legal to save the life of the mother.
Legal in case of rape and incest.
Legal if the baby is handicapped.
Legal if the baby has a genetic defect.
Legal in the first trimester.
Legal in the second trimester.
Legal in the third trimester.
SP: I am pro-life. With the exception of a doctor’s determination that
the mother’s life would end if the pregnancy continued. I believe that
no matter what mistakes we make as a society, we cannot condone ending
an innocent’s life.

2. Will you support the right of parents to opt out their children
from curricula, books, classes, or surveys, which parents consider
privacy-invading or offensive to their religion or conscience?
SP: Yes. Parents should have the ultimate control over what their
children are taught.

3. Will you support funding for abstinence-until-marriage education
instead of for explicit sex-education programs, school-based clinics,
and the distribution of contraceptives in schools?
SP: Yes, the explicit sex-ed programs will not find my support.

4. Will you support efforts to raise or lower the mandatory age of
education? Why or why not?
SP: No, again, parents know better than government what is best for
their children.

5. Will you support an effort to expand hate-crime laws?
SP: No, as I believe all heinous crime is based on hate.

6a. Do you support the expansion of gambling in Alaska?
SP: No, in so many cases, gambling has shown ill effects on families
and as Governor I would not propose expansion legislation.

6b Would you sign any bills that expand gaming in our state?
SP: No.

7. Do you support statewide restrictions on the use of eminent domain
to transfer property from one private owner to another?
SP: Yes.

8. Do you support parental choice in the spending of state educational
dollars?
SP: Within Alaska law, I support parents deciding what is the best
education venue for their child.

9. Do you support legislation requiring labor unions to obtain
permission from their members before using dues for political
purposes?
SP: Yes, unions represent their workers and as such, should be
accountable to them

10. Do you support the Alaska Supreme Court’s ruling that spousal
benefits for state employees should be given to same-sex couples? Why
or why not?
SP: No, I believe spousal benefits are reserved for married citizens
as defined in our constitution.

11. Are you offended by the phrase “Under God” in the Pledge of
Allegiance? Why or why not?
SP: Not on your life. If it was good enough for the founding fathers,
its good enough for me and I’ll fight in defense of our Pledge of
Allegiance.

12. In relationship to families, what are your top three priorities if
elected governor?
SP: 1. Creating an atmosphere where parents feel welcome to choose the
venues of education for their children.
2. Preserving the definition of “marriage” as defined in our
constitution.
3. Cracking down on the things that harm family life: gangs, drug use,
and infringement of our liberties including attacks on our 2nd
Amendment rights.

Read: "For example, we -- her parents (and so WHAT if I smoked pot
and my husband got a DUI?) -- taught our teenage daughter that it was
cool to have premarital sex without birth control, and she took our
advice!"

she is stupid and an idiot, that she didn't know that the "under God"
was put in the pledge in the 1950's.
That would make her my pick for VP.... LOL NOT!!!
dont you need to know grammar school history before you get vetted?

Wow, a perfect demagogue, and she won the election in a backwards, insular
state of Alaska. I'm shocked, I say, shocked!!!

Now, what can a lame assed state governor actually do about a Constitutional
issue that was decided by the SCOTUS, a long time ago, in a land far, far
away? Nothing. State rights, whatever that term means, do not trump the
US Constitution. Maybe Alaska should secede, and we can give Seward's Folly
to the Russians---after we take all the oil, of course.

Founding Fathers??? Geezus, what a fuckin' retard.

The Pledge of Allegiance was written in 1892 by Francis Bellamy (1855-1931),
a Baptist minister, a Christian Socialist, and the cousin of Socialist
Utopian novelist Edward Bellamy (1850-1898). Bellamy's original "Pledge of
Allegiance" was published in the September 8th issue of the popular
children's magazine The Youth's Companion as part of the National
Public-School Celebration of Columbus Day, a celebration of the 400th
anniversary of Christopher Columbus's discovery of America, conceived by
James B. Upham.

Wow, not only is she cute, she's an airhead. I guess that makes her the
perfect republican woman. Now, if only she'd have remained barefoot and in
the kitchen......

And she, and apparently you, are unaware that the pledge was written by a
Socialist minister.....
