"Sarah Palin isn't for taking money from the rich and giving it to the poor, she's for creating wealth that everyone can enjoy, and her state is pretty darn good at it."

Socialism isn't defined as "taking money from the rich and giving it to the poor". Her state is pretty darn good at practicing socialism. The state has collective ownership, takes profits from the rich oil companies and "redistributes the wealth" back to the citizens of Alaska.

The truth is that Palin just benefits from a low population state with a large land mass that has vital resources. Alaska's change in Gross State Product was among the lowest. Only 6 states with lower growth. The percent change in real GDP by State in year 2006 from the year of 2007 was only 0.3% and oil companies were making record profits. This from the Bureau of Economic Analysis, an agency of the U.S. Department of Commerce.

Well, blow me down! I believe the other 49 states also "take profits" ( tax ) companies and use it in their budgets. Alaska, under Palin, just does a better job of it than most if not all the other states.

Palin lowered the economic growth in Alaska.

Alaskans get paid to live in Alaska. They get a check from Alaska Sarge. Can we make it any more clear to you. It is called "Citizen's dividend." The oil company pays taxes and Palin gives cash to the citizens. She does not do a better job; she lives in a state with a low population and high resource production. Only a dumbass would equate that to efficiency. She redistributes the wealth and that according to Sarge is socialism. Sarge said smith would not admit something or another. Now he is being dishonest about Palin. I wonder why. That's right I already addressed that.

Sorry if the truth hurts but it is still the truth.

Sheesh goodDonkey

Your upset about Alaska "Spreading the wealth".....????????

Donkey - If Sarah Palin lowered economic growth in Alaska, why does she have an 80% approval rating in Alaska? Hmmm?

They can't answer that one. Does not compute.

I must have missed the part where I typed that I was upset. I merely pointed out the facts. These people call Obama a socialist and Palin said Obama wanted to practice socialism. According to the last two posters she is a socialist. Maybe you believe I am upset because you read things into the facts and collect fake facts. I posted a site by the Bureau of Economic Analysis, an agency of the U.S. Department of Commerce and well known conservatives say it does not compute or say that her completely unrelated approval rating has something to do with government facts. They are facts. It seems three of you have a problem accepting facts. But you can all go on in your pretend world. It is just that Palin is a hypocrite because she said Obama wanted to bring socialism to America and she has been involved in what any economist worth his salt would say is more socialistic than anything Obama proposed. Did these guys go to the U.S. government website I posted? That's where the facts are.

I never like Sarah Palin... but I think that all these invitations is to make fun of her... she proved before in debates and other speeches that she did have dumb answers.

Few days before nov 4, I watched Letterman, he really took many phrases said by Palin, and she was ridiculized.

For her own sake, she shouldn't appear in these shows. She will lose more credibility (if she had one)

And for those that say that Palin doesn't practice socialism, taking taxes from rich companies and re-distributing wealth is socialism...or at least it is perceived as socialism by many right-wing U.S. people

Palin is bush in a skirt. The USA has had enough of stupid republicans trying to run government, but always failing miserably. Reagan, Bush and Palin? No way. The country would collapse into a depression. Oh, sorry, its in one now I guess due to the bush inept administration.

All that potential overseas travel would give her real foreign experience, as opposed to staring at Canada and Russia from afar, if she can get away from the handlers, PR staff, spin doctors and others who would serve to isolate her and manipulate her for their own interests.
