Question #1:

Want to see some facts about Palins Book, "Going Rogue"?

FACT CHECK: Palin's book goes rogue on some facts

PALIN: Describing her resistance to federal stimulus money, Palin describes Alaska as a practical, libertarian haven of independent Americans who don't want "help" from government busybodies.

THE FACTS: Alaska is also one of the states most dependent on federal subsidies, receiving much more assistance from Washington than it pays in federal taxes. A study for the nonpartisan Tax Foundation found that in 2005, the state received $1.84 for every dollar it sent to Washington.

I really enjoy it, when any politician, left, right, center does a foot in mouth, then inserts it up to the knee.

I am an independent, not liberal, not conservative, but like to look at all sides then come to a conclusion. Sometimes, in the political world we have that is nearly impossible. I mean, how is one to determine what is truth and what is crap?

Question #2:

Why do some Christians feel obligated to defend each other,no matter how dishonest or vicious the other person?

WASHINGTON – Sarah Palin's new book reprises familiar claims from the 2008 presidential campaign that haven't become any truer over time.

Ignoring substantial parts of her record if not the facts, she depicts herself as a frugal traveler on the taxpayer's dime, a reformer without ties to powerful interests and a politician roguishly indifferent to high ambition.

PALIN: Says she made frugality a point when traveling on state business as Alaska governor, asking "only" for reasonably priced rooms and not "often" going for the "high-end, robe-and-slippers" hotels.

THE FACTS: Although travel records indicate she usually opted for less-pricey hotels while governor, Palin and daughter Bristol stayed five days and four nights at the $707.29-per-night Essex House luxury hotel (robes and slippers come standard) overlooking New York City's Central Park for a five-hour women's leadership conference in October 2007. With air fare, the cost to Alaska was well over $3,000. Event organizers said Palin asked if she could bring her daughter. The governor billed her state more than $20,000 for her children's travel, including to events where they had not been invited, and in some cases later amended expense reports to specify that they had been on official business.

___

PALIN: Boasts that she ran her campaign for governor on small donations, mostly from first-time givers, and turned back large checks from big donors if her campaign perceived a conflict of interest.

THE FACTS: Of the roughly $1.3 million she raised for her primary and general election campaigns for governor, more than half came from people and political action committees giving at least $500, according to an AP analysis of her campaign finance reports. The maximum that individual donors could give was $1,000; $2,000 for a PAC.

Of the rest, about $76,000 came from Republican Party committees.

She accepted $1,000 each from a state senator and his wife in the weeks after the two Republican lawmakers' offices were raided by the FBI as part of an investigation into a powerful Alaska oilfield services company. After AP reported those donations during the presidential campaign, she said she would give a comparative sum to charity after the general election in 2010, a date set by state election laws.

___

PALIN: Rails against taxpayer-financed bailouts, which she attributes to Obama. She recounts telling daughter Bristol that to succeed in business, "you'll have to be brave enough to fail."

THE FACTS: Palin is blurring the lines between Obama's stimulus plan — a $787 billion package of tax cuts, state aid, social programs and government contracts — and the federal bailout that Republican presidential candidate John McCain voted for and President George W. Bush signed.

Palin's views on bailouts appeared to evolve as McCain's vice presidential running mate. In September 2008, she said "taxpayers cannot be looked to as the bailout, as the solution, to the problems on Wall Street." A week later, she said "ultimately what the bailout does is help those who are concerned about the health care reform that is needed to help shore up our economy."

During the vice presidential debate in October, Palin praised McCain for being "instrumental in bringing folks together" to pass the $700 billion bailout. After that, she said "it is a time of crisis and government did have to step in."

___

PALIN: Says Ronald Reagan faced an even worse recession than the one that appears to be ending now, and "showed us how to get out of one. If you want real job growth, cut capital gains taxes and slay the death tax once and for all."

THE FACTS: The estate tax, which some call the death tax, was not repealed under Reagan and capital gains taxes are lower now than when Reagan was president.

Economists overwhelmingly say the current recession is far worse. The recession Reagan faced lasted for 16 months; this one is in its 23rd month. The recession of the early 1980s did not have a financial meltdown. Unemployment peaked at 10.8 percent, worse than the October 2009 high of 10.2 percent, but the jobless rate is still expected to climb.

___

PALIN: She says her team overseeing the development of a natural gas pipeline set up an open, competitive bidding process that allowed any company to compete for the right to build a 1,715-mile pipeline to bring natural gas from Alaska to the Lower 48.

THE FACTS: Palin characterized the pipeline deal the same way before an AP investigation found her team crafted terms that favored only a few independent pipeline companies.

Question #4:

Why do people have to pay back part of their stimulus check?

I guess the Obama supporters agree with this, too?

Click Here

WASHINGTON (AP) -- More than 15 million taxpayers could unexpectedly owe taxes when they file their federal returns next spring because the government was too generous with their new Making Work Pay tax credit.

Taxpayers are at risk if they have more than one job, are married and both spouses work, or receive Social Security benefits while also earning taxable wages, according to a report Monday by the Treasury Department's inspector general for tax administration.

The tax credit, which is supposed to pay individuals up to $400 and couples up to $800, was President Barack Obama's signature tax break in the massive stimulus package enacted in February.

Palin goes adrift, at times, on more contemporary issues, too. She criticizes President Barack Obama for pushing through a bailout package that actually was achieved by his Republican predecessor George W. Bush — a package she seemed to support at the time.

THE FACTS: Of the roughly $1.3 million she raised for her primary and general election campaigns for governor, more than half came from people and political action committees giving at least $500, according to an AP analysis of her campaign finance reports.

Palin's views on bailouts appeared to evolve as McCain's vice presidential running mate. In September 2008, she said "taxpayers cannot be looked to as the bailout, as the solution, to the problems on Wall Street." A week later, she said "ultimately what the bailout does is help those who are concerned about the health care reform that is needed to help shore up our economy."
During the vice presidential debate in October, Palin praised McCain for being "instrumental in bringing folks together" to pass the $700 billion bailout. After that, she said "it is a time of crisis and government did have to step in."

PALIN: Says Ronald Reagan faced an even worse recession than the one that appears to be ending now, and "showed us how to get out of one. If you want real job growth, cut capital gains taxes and slay the death tax once and for all."
THE FACTS: The estate tax, which some call the death tax, was not repealed under Reagan and capital gains taxes are lower now than when Reagan was president.
Economists overwhelmingly say the current recession is far worse. The recession Reagan faced lasted for 16 months; this one is in its 23rd month. The recession of the early 1980s did not have a financial meltdown. Unemployment peaked at 10.8 percent, worse than the October 2009 high of 10.2 percent, but the jobless rate is still expected to climb.

PALIN: She says her team overseeing the development of a natural gas pipeline set up an open, competitive bidding process that allowed any company to compete for the right to build a 1,715-mile pipeline to bring natural gas from Alaska to the Lower 48.
THE FACTS: Palin characterized the pipeline deal the same way before an AP investigation found her team crafted terms that favored only a few independent pipeline companies and ultimately benefited a company with ties to her administration, TransCanada Corp. Despite promises and legal guidance not to talk directly with potential bidders during the process, Palin had meetings or phone calls with nearly every major candidate, including TransCanada.

Question #11:

Is this your next candidate for President, with exerpts from her new book?

WASHINGTON – Sarah Palin's new book reprises familiar claims from the 2008 presidential campaign that haven't become any truer over time.

Ignoring substantial parts of her record if not the facts, she depicts herself as a frugal traveler on the taxpayer's dime, a reformer without ties to powerful interests and a politician roguishly indifferent to high ambition.

Palin goes adrift, at times, on more contemporary issues, too. She criticizes President Barack Obama for pushing through a bailout package that actually was achieved by his Republican predecessor George W. Bush — a package she seemed to support at the time.

A look at some of her statements in "Going Rogue," obtained by The Associated Press in advance of its release Tuesday:

___

PALIN: Says she made frugality a point when traveling on state business as Alaska governor, asking "only" for reasonably priced rooms and not "often" going for the "high-end, robe-and-slippers" hotels.

THE FACTS: Although travel records indicate she usually opted for less-pricey hotels while governor, Palin and daughter Bristol stayed five days and four nights at the $707.29-per-night Essex House luxury hotel (robes and slippers come standard) overlooking New York City's Central Park for a five-hour women's leadership conference in October 2007. With air fare, the cost to Alaska was well over $3,000. Event organizers said Palin asked if she could bring her daughter. The governor billed her state more than $20,000 for her children's travel, including to events where they had not been invited, and in some cases later amended expense reports to specify that they had been on official business.

What do you think of Sarah Palin lying repeatedly in her new book?

I have not read the book yet, however AP did some fact checking :

Question #13:

How many of the liberties Bush took away have been restored by the Democratic Congress and Obama?

Last I checked, the Wars in Afghanistan and Iraq are still going strong. Last I checked, the Patriot Act and Military Commissions Act remain intact. Last I checked, the concentration camp at Guantanamo Bay remains open. Last I checked, the Office of Faith-Based Initiatives (outsourcing of welfare to churches in violation of the Separation of Church and State) remains intact. Last I checked, No Child Left Behind has not been repealed.

Can the Democrats name any real accomplishments after controlling Congress for 3 years and the White House for a year other than expanding the amount of tyranny? The Democratic Congress has overseen bailouts for bankrupt megacorporations, stimulus boondoggles, and numerous renamed post offices. Although Nancy Pelosi promised to end the Iraq War if she was made Speaker, instead she chose to vote repeatedly to continue funding the illegal occupation of Iraq. Recently, the Democratic House passed a bill which would pass massive taxes on energy (which would drive up energy prices) in order to maybe lower temperatures in the future by a few degrees. The Democratic House also recently passed legislation which forces people to purchase health insurance or go to jail and also includes numerous price control measures which are designed to shift costs away from the middle-aged and toward the young. The Democrats desire to force the "uninsured" to purchase health insurance they don't need and don't want so that their parents can get lower cost health insurance (by both forcing the young to become insured and increasing the amount of money they have to pay for insurance, this enables the middle-aged people who cynically manipulated the young to install the current president to get the subsidized health insurance they want). Fortunately, both of these bills seem to have little chance of making it out of the Senate.

What exactly have the Democrats accomplished for our country other than taking away more of our liberties? I have no delusions that a Republican Congress will be much better (unless that Congress consists of the party's growing libertarian wing, led by Congressman Ron Paul, the only major anti-war presidential candidate in the 2008 election cycle). However, the fact that the Republicans were tyrannical during the Bush years is no excuse for the disastrous record of the 110th and 111th Congresses.

Question #14:

Do you trust this government?

cap and trade, card check, tax increases, porky stimulus, and now health care reform to take benefit away from our seniors while coddling the lawyers....the list goes on..all in less than a year and our economy is in tatters. Unemployment is shooting through the roof, and we are totally confused about what to do in Afghan. I am not sure I can believe in anything coming out of Washington. Can you?

Question #15:

The stimulus went to what!?

These people have no clue...unless all they wanted to do was spend money and reward their friends. How does any of this tie in with stimulating the economy? Everyone knows that heavy infrastructure work and legitimate new construction projects help the most...hell, even temporally stopping collecting taxes for the feds for a quarter would've been more productive than this crap.

The $787 billion stimulus bill was passed in February and was promised as a job saver and economy booster. Here is where some of the money went:

- $300,000 for a GPS-equipped helicopter to hunt for radioactive rabbit droppings at the Hanford nuclear reservation in Washington state.

- $30 million for a spring training baseball complex for the Arizona Diamondbacks and Colorado Rockies.

- $11 million for Microsoft to build a bridge connecting its two headquarter campuses in Redmond, Wash., which are separated by a highway.

- $430,000 to repair a bridge in Iowa County, Wis., that carries 10 or fewer cars per day.

- $800,000 for the John Murtha Airport in Johnstown, Pa., serving about 20 passengers per day, to build a backup runway.

- $219,000 for Syracuse University to study the sex lives of freshmen women.

- $2.3 million for the U.S. Forest Service to rear large numbers of arthropods, including the Asian longhorned beetle, the nun moth and the woolly adelgid.

- $3.4 million for a 13-foot tunnel for turtles and other wildlife attempting to cross U.S. 27 in Lake Jackson, Fla.

- $1.15 million to install a guardrail for a persistently dry lake bed in Guymon, Okla.

- $9.38 million to renovate a century-old train depot in Lancaster County, Pa., that has not been used for three decades.

- $2.5 million in stimulus checks sent to the deceased.

- $6 million for a snow-making facility in Duluth, Minn.

- $173,834 to weatherize eight pickup trucks in Madison County, Ill.

- $20,000 for a fish sperm freezer at the Gavins Point National Fish Hatchery in South Dakota.

- $380,000 to spay and neuter pets in Wichita, Kan.

- $300 apiece for thousands of signs at road construction sites across the country announcing that the projects are funded by stimulus money.

- $1.5 million for a fence to block would-be jumpers from leaping off the All-American Bridge in Akron, Ohio.

- $1 million to study the health effects of environmentally friendly public housing on 300 people in Chicago.

- $356,000 for Indiana University to study childhood comprehension of foreign accents compared with native speech.

- $983,952 for street beautification in Ann Arbor, Mich., including decorative lighting, trees, benches and bike paths.

- $148,438 for Washington State University to analyze the use of marijuana in conjunction with medications like morphine.

- $462,000 to purchase 22 concrete toilets for use in the Mark Twain National Forest in Missouri

- $3.1 million to transform a canal barge into a floating museum that will travel the Erie Canal in New York state.

- $1.3 million on government arts jobs in Maine, including $30,000 for basket makers, $20,000 for storytelling and $12,500 for a music festival.

- $71,000 for a hybrid car to be used by student drivers in Colchester, Vt., as well as a plug-in hybrid for town workers decked out with a sign touting the vehicle's energy efficiency.

- $1 million for Portland, Ore., to replace 100 aging bike lockers and build a garage that would house 250 bicycles.

Question #17:

Should USA Govt build offices underneath people's homes?

As a way to unite Americans with their local government officials:

Every house in the USA on a ground floor, (except in places where you can't have basements like Florida), should have a Government and law enforcement offices underneath the person's home.

Now, when you get bored or lonely in your home or need help, you can poke a hole in the floor and be right next to government officials working 24-hour shifts, handling stimulus package checks and arresting bad people and all that, and collecting taxes.

Why can't we have this system where Government buildings are in the basements of private homes in America that enable basement living?

To fund this, we could raise property taxes for each homeowner so the home owners can cover the maintenance costs of the govt buildings below their homes used by the Government workers in carrying out their duties.
Especially during war time and even peace, it could be necessary for soldiers to be quartered inside citizen homes.
This can get very interesting.

The Government office entrances would NOT be through a private homeowner's front door.

Instead it would be the tunnels used for plumbing behind the house walls would share a passage way for Government workers to get to the basement without going through the person's house. (Well like where the AC/Heat runs, and like the attic).

Question #18:

Do you think the Obama WH is trying to nudge citizens into doing preferred behavior?

Basically instead of writing legislation that gives people the option to opt in, you instead write the legislation so that people are in by default and must opt out. This seems to imply that the govt. knows better what's best for the people than the people themselves. The "default" would be for all the stupid people not smart enough to opt in on their own.

Do you think this is a good way to write legislation??

Click Here

The classic example of the power of the default is the opt-out 401(k) savings plan. In a 2001 study, only 36% of the participants signed up for a retirement savings plan when they had to opt in - even though their employers were matching their contributions. Free money, and only 36% took it! But when participants were automatically signed up for the same plan but given the chance to opt out, 86% of them stuck with it. Scholars have found similar status-quo results with organ donations. If we have to sign up, very few of us become organ donors. If we have to opt out, most of us remain organ donors. Similarly, when our electronic gadgets come with the energy-saving auto-power-down function enabled, we're cool with that; if we have to enable it ourselves, we rarely bother. (See 10 players in health-care reform.)

This kind of behavior doesn't fit into neoclassical economic models, which assume that human beings are rational agents who act in their own best interests. In the real world, human beings are human beings. Sometimes we're too dumb to know our own best interests. Sometimes we're too lazy to slog through the forms to figure out our own best interests. Often we're conformists; we assume the default must be the default because that's what most people do, and we're desperate not to be social deviants.

These insights are at the core of the challenge to traditional neoclassicism posed by behavioral economics, which has burst into prominence in the Obama Administration. Budget director Peter Orszag is so obsessed with defaults that he used to bring a copy of that 401(k) study to all his meetings; chief regulator Cass Sunstein co-authored a book called Nudge that's all about defaults and other noncoercive policies that can promote desired behaviors. The Administration has pushed one nudge after another, from simplified financial-aid forms after studies showed they could increase college-attendance rates to automatic savings plans for small businesses. It even doled out our payroll-tax cuts in the stimulus bill by decreasing our weekly withholding rather than cutting us big lump-sum checks, because the research suggested we'd be less likely to notice it and more likely to spend it.
guru............Don't you see a difference between educated individuals and a mass of drones??

Question #19:

My tax preparer stole from me for the past 3 years?

My tax preparer was preparing two returns, one for me and the other for the IRS. He was telling me that i would get a return of 3000 for example and it would be electronically sent to my account. It just so happend that i called the IRS one year to find out what happend to my stimulus check and i was told that it was deposited into an account in a California bank. I have never been to there and im from NJ so when i explained this to the IRS they verified that an account had been opened in my name and the account had my social security # in the account number itself. We went over my last few returns and it turns out that my preparer was taking atleast $1500 each year. What can i do about this?

Question #20:

Socialized medicine seems to be merely a power grab by powerful leftists. What can you do to resist control?

What suggestions do you have to throw a monkeywrench into the works of leftist government in order to collapse the system?

I have a few:
1. Adjust your W-4 withholding so that your exemptions create a situation in which you owe a small amount come tax time.
2. File taxes by paper and on April 15.
3. Initiate complaints, paperwork, investigations with all government health entities.
4. Start rumors that government health offices are giving away free "stimulus" checks to the first 200 visitors to an office.

That's just a few. What do you have?
smitty, socialism is harmful to humans. that is why it must be destroyed.
pigeon, I think the irony of your post escapes you.
kenny, I think socialized medicine will HURT many more people than help.

What you mention isn't socialism, but local communities deciding what they would like to have
justagrandma, do you actually believe that YOU should have the power to determine who works in a private company?
