Brace Yourself for ‘Sarah Palin’s Alaska’

For all the gosh-darn folksiness Sarah Palin hurls in our direction, the preview for her new TLC show makes the former governor’s existence seem pretty charmed.

I bet that if Truthdig and every other rational, left-leaning media outlet discontinued their frenetic coverage of this succubus-from-hell, there would be a corresponding decrease in her mass appeal.  She’s a no-one w/out all the coverage—positive or negative.

Gee, with all the running around this woman claims she does and the yard work like mowing the grass with her last child she claims she had in a backpack on her as she mows the grass, the TV appearances, the speech giving for $$ all over the world, the political campaigning for herself and other T.P.er’s, ghost written books she claims she writes and the book signing bus tours, when does she have time to take care of her husband Todd’s needs and that of her family?

Oh, that’s right, she doesn’t.

If she would rather be out there in Alaska rather than in some office then quit running for office which we know you are regardless of what your mouth says Sarah. And besides you would quit anyway.

Wonder how those sled dogs have managed to stay alive around her. Malamutes and huskies are the closest to wolves in the domestic canines as coyotes and foxes are in the wild. Or are they in her sights next?

It looks like there’s nothing in that backpack, just
like her head.

First it should be a wolf that gets her as she brought back the aerial slaughter of wolves even though that law ended in the 1930’s. She has allowed the killing of wolf pups in the den, even though it was when illegal to do so when she was that half assed governor who quit early. Wonder if she still demanded her wages even though she quit as many school board members and others who had contracts that they didn’t fulfill but still got all the $$$?

Care2.com, Defenders of Wildlife.org.,Change.org and many other online animal oriented organizations had petitions last year and earlier this year to stop the airing of these shows Sarah Paleface did for TLC(the learning channel) and the Discovery channel. It worked for a while but it is time to start protesting before this is to air Nov.14? this time and boycott their sponsors also. Guess the network is still trying to regain back some of the 8 million dollars I heard was paid to her for her “Sarah Palin’s Alaska” series. Whatever they paid, it was far to much for She of Little Values, especially moral ones.

This woman and all who support her are killers of Nature. They are death to the natural world.

The discovery channel, like most of Korpo rate Amerika, has no moral fiber.
It is whatever make money that counts.Kapitalism and greed rules everywhere.
Can we, in this so-called civilized society, walk down a street and see items
displayed for their beauty and craftmanship, instead of everything being for sale,
no we cant.
I hope one of the episodes shows her machine gunning defenseless animals from
her helicopter.
Each hunter on earth kills for the thrill of killing, with no regard for the terror and
agony they inflict upon the defenseless animals. There is no such thing as a noble
hunter,they are killers, period.

If there was a God, an angry polar bear would make an unscripted appearance on the last episode.

The trailer can be used to torture prisoners at Gitmo!
