Sarah Palin's Record on Aerial Wolf Hunting...

From the Defender's of Wildlife:
As governor of Alaska, Sarah Palin has championed aerial gunning of wolves and bears. Using powerful images of this needless and brutal practice -- and the indisputable facts about Palin's promotion of it -- we've created a hard-hitting new television ad to educate voters about what Governor Sarah Palin really stands for.

As governor, Sarah Palin...
  • Proposed paying a $150 bounty for the left foreleg of each dead wolf.
  • Approved a $400,000 state-funded propaganda campaign to promote aerial hunting. (The state voters of Alaska have twice before voted to ban aerial hunting.)
  • Introduced legislation to make it even easier to use aircraft to hunt wolves and bears.
  • Sued the federal government, the Bush-Cheney administration, to keep polar bears from being listed as an endangered species.
  • She promoted drilling in ANWAR (Alaska National Wildlife Refuge)
Is this the type of person we want to be one heartbeat away from the presidency? If you are a hunter, then please tell me why you would want to hunt wolf. I looked all over the Internet and could not find a recipe with wolf as an ingredient!

If you want to make a difference - vote and make sure Sarah and McCain never see the inside of the White House. Also go to the Defender's of Wildlife website and make a donation.

I am so happy to see that you have been able to adopt a little girl! Good for you two, GREAT for her! ((hugs)) I wish gay couples everywhere could.

And thanks so much for posting on the wolves. It is a national tragedy. I simply cannot imagine a woman or man with such a cold heart as to do this. I too posted about it on my blog.

Great going!
