" There has not been one intelligent response here to Ed of AZ's questions. Not one. Just abuse.

And if local yokels have a problem with "outsiders" opining, they need to talk to the newspaper's editors about changing the "rules". Until then, Ed and other "outsiders" haven't done one thing wrong by blogging here--the locals need to develop a spine, that's all.

These abusive people are everything Americans perceived Sara Palin to be--and didn't vote for her--because of those perceptions.

There are blogs elsewhere, Ed, where people behave better than this. "

Hey Ed..what does 'woud' and 'soeone' mean, Mr. Brain? And there must be a hundred ways your dumb, boring questions have been proven wrong. Now it's just old. You are too dumb to understand or listen. That's why nobody is responding to you anymore except to make fun of you. Who wants to lower themselves to the level of an idiot? "

Certainly not doing interviews. Certainly not addressing crowds discussing her politics, other than mud-slinging.

About the only effective things she does is accept free clothes, free trips, and fraudulent expense re-imbursements from Alaska. Or to use another word, she is effective at stealing other peoples $$$$$$$$$$$.

I am not lying, and you know it. Try reading IRS tax code. You can not deduct expenses greater than income for hobbies, and Todd's snow mobile racing is just a hobby.

Expenses paid by Alaska are to be matched against the actual expenses ncurred to determine which is higher. If actual expenses are higher then you can deduct the excess, if the monies recieved by arah are greater, then the excess is income. She has strangely failed to make this part of her returns.

Fraudulent per diems, fraudulent expense reports, personal expenses charged to Alaskans, freebies not reported, which add up to fraudulent tax returns based upon returns for 2007 she has released.

And now you pay such a high amount for gas, as I enjoy $ 1.62 per gallon, with state taxes added. "

" To Ed in AZ- Man! everywhere I look in my LOCAL paper there your blogs are.
Do you not have a life that you have to spend so much effort spewing your venomous lies in OUR paper? Sinnce you know so much about ALASKA laws, maybe you could state the statutes, laws, codes, that you state Palin violated, and what evidence you use to prove the alleged violation. If none that SHUT YOUR LYING MOUTH! "

" All the papers in his surrounding area probably stopped printing whatever fell out of his head, so he had to resort to finding other venues for his ridiculous tripe. Have you noticed that nobody in here really responds to him? Kind of like the crazy people that loiter around downtown muttering while everybody around ignores them? Maybe he'll get bored here and find some small paper in Illinois to bother. "

" So did Edward from AZ get dumped by some girl from Alaska? Why else does he feel the need to spend so much time in here spitting venom? I admit, I do find his comments amusing and I appreciate his willingness to make himself appear so foolish for our entertainment, but I still have to wonder what his motivations are. If there was at least some small indicator that he knew what he was talking about, rather than just endless inane jibberish. "

" Duh,

The oil companies are passing along the high taxes that your governor helped assess to enable her to issue you those wonderful annual checks. So it sit back and then contact her Highness and ask for relief. Your gift check is now biting you in the butt.


You betcha, wink wink. "

" No it is not gouging, it is pay back for the fuel relief money we all received on our dividend this year. Once that money is all spent the price will drop. "

" Excuse me sir, but I think if I was from your state I would be careful criticizing the politics of any other state in the Union. The people there voted for and are represented by a philandering alcoholic that should be in prison for manslaughter (if not murder). If that is the type of person you feel best represents your interests, then your opinion regarding our political representatives is entirely without weight. "

" The price of fuel is Bush and Palin's fault! The Democrat Congress during the last two years is not to blame! I don't care what Obama voted (because I don't pay attention anyway...I let the press tell me what's happening!), it's still all Bush's fault! I live in Boston but somehow I know what the Permanent Dividend Fund is about because I'm a good guesser! And if I don't know, I just let my liberal buddies tell me! Nobody here will listen to me so I log on to newspapers far away and leave silly messages on them! "

" Here in Wrangell we just received a shipment of fuel , gas droped from 4.79 to 4.25 , a far cry from 2.60, you should feel lucky. I wrote ower Govenor and asked to put in more refineries instead of a gas line to Canada, no remark, I called ower legislator and asked what they were doing and received a answer ,
'wating for oil to go up" Alaska should be developing now, not wate until oil goes up. J C "

" I'm confused. Sarah Palin, world famous energy expert, negotiated and got tough with big oil. That's what she said.

And she gave every man, woman and child in Alaska a big fat check. Now you are whining because some of that big fat check goes for gasoline?

You are going to rue the day that Sarah gave us in country an insight into how business is done in Alaska. "

" You think fuel is expensive now, wait till all of the North Slope's ultra low sulfur is being hauled up by trucks. It's already started, but wait till they are running 30 to 60 truck loads a day up there. Diesel will be at an all time high in this state. Perfect timing. This is all because of some permit that the state wouldn't issue, good going politicians. The oil companies are now going to teach this state a lesson, only problem is the people are the ones that are going to pay. "

" We are being gouged by the oil industry. For years we paid at, or just below the national average for gas. Since then we have removed all state gasoline tax....we should be 5-8 cents BELOW the national avg., here in South Central. The oil industry is just sticking it to us. "
