I’m amazed at how many comments discredit anyone who questionswhere miss Judd is when it comes to why she objects to killing wolves but aproves of killing unborn children. I do not approve of either, but I have the feeling that most of the Judd supporters and Palin haters think it is OK to kill unborn children but wrong tokill wolves. Strange set of values.

*Sigh*

Look, while I think the arial part of hunting the wolves is rather cruel (why not hunt them on the ground like everyone else?), Sarah Palin is a psychopath that needs to stay the fuck in Alaska. I don’t want her within 100 miles of the Washington DC city limits.

My observations on Palin have been from more than just Gibbs and Couric. She is an absolutely frightening woman. You can be against abortion, but the line is crossed when you try to take that right away from other women. Regulate your opinion to yourself and friends/family, not the whole country.

Palin also doesn’t know a goddamn thing about the economy, and her religious views scare the shit out of me. Creationism is NOT science, and it NEVER will be. Her husband is part of a sepratist party in Alaska that wants to break away from the country and become a theocracy. Palin shouldn’t even be recognizing the party. But she has. On top of that, her husband is invested in an oil fishing business that makes a cool million or so. She’s forgotten what it’s like to be a “regular” American, or the American that Republicans adore so much, for the name of power and glory.

I agree that Judd should have looked at all of the facts before she opened her mouth, but goddammit, Palin needs to crawl into a hole and disappear. She is the most disgusting piece of work in politics I have ever seen.

What about the suffering of babies in Partial Birth Abortions?

Since when did animals become more important than people?

The truth is, Ashley has a grudge and she wants to advance her liberal agenda. Welcome to the age of Obama where everything is a crises and “government is the answer.”

The abortion comment is interesting. It is a fact that the pro-choice speak about abortion and deliberately ignore that there is a fetus, a human being, killed. Regardless of your position on abortion, research how death is “brought about” to a fetus.

The assassination of animals is cruel no matter how it is done. Humans exterminate, torture, and devour millions upon millions of animals every year. Their skins and flesh are to be found everywhere. There is that.

Palin is an idiot and so are many polititians. But she is being chased down for political purposes. There is that too.

Palin said about global warming during the campaign that “I’m not one though who would attribute it to being man-made.” In early 2008 she also said that polar bears should not be listed as an endangered species and doing so would hurt development in Alaska; she had Alaska Assistant Attorney General Steven Daugherty issue a statement: “We believe that the listing was unwarranted and that it’s unprecedented to list a currently healthy population based on uncertain climate models,”.

Palin drafted a letter that was published in the NY Times on January 5, 2008. To quote: “Such limits should be adopted through an open process in which environmental issues are weighed against economic and social needs, and where scientists debate and present information that policy makers need to make the best decisions. Americans should become involved in the issue of climate change by offering suggestions for constructive action to their state governments. But listing the polar bear as threatened is the wrong way to get to the right answer.”

In Palin’s mind scientific facts are questionable, but the suggestions of average citizens are what we really need to address the issue of climate change; that’s really scientific.

The Alaskan Board of Game decided to kill black bear mothers and cubs and wolves to boost moose herds, even though the scientific community and many locals thought it a bad idea. This is the same agency she wants to transfer management of the wolf killing program to, away from the state Department of Fish and Game. Since when do game boards have more scientists and utilize objective scientific data to support their cause more than Fish and Game? They don’t, because that wouldn’t back up their desire to kill what they want, in the most advantageous way to them. This is about money, power and Palin getting what she wants, not scientifically based wildlife management.

The herds of Caribou have been growing, from 27,128 in 2000 to 31,857 in 2003 according to the Department of Interior. The wolves don’t venture up to the North Slope as much, but they do hunt the caribou when they range farther south during their annual migration; so indiscriminately killing the strongest wolves, which are most likely to roam farther doesn’t make any sense. Unless keeping the caribou herds inflated to allow for more sport hunting is to be the main source of population control; which of course also doesn’t make sense for the health of the caribou, as hunters generally go for the strongest, best looking specimen to bag. The wolves at least usually cull the weakest and disadvantaged, which is good for the long term health of the herd. The best interests of the wolves and the ecosystem at large are not served well by this practice.

My name is Alice and I am a hunter and wildlife Photographer of 10 years.
Do you people even try to get all the facts? First of all, this is not hunting, it is culling the over-population. It may not be the best method, but it certainly is the most effective. The money was offered because most people don’t want to go off into the AK wilderness as well as It costs money to rent a plane. This is not a bunch of drunken, inbred hicks going out to kill for fun. This is a planned and limited wildlife management operation. There are rules to be followed. The front leg issue is only for proof of a kill and to keep track of how many are culled. I am sure there is a limit to how many are culled. No one wants to kill off all the wolves. Americans already did that in many of the lower states years ago which caused a horrible imbalance in nature.

Do you even understand or consider that when a species over-populates and area, it causes a disruption in the food chain. Too many of one animal and they can decimate its’ food supply, then weakness, sickness, disease and a very slow and painful deaths occur. Not just to one, but many. And when predators such as wolves begin to go hungry they start looking for easier prey to kill. How would you feel if wolves began killing our children and pets? This has happened. But we don’t want to talk about that do we. It might give us justification for culling over-populated predators. And wolves don’t kill that many large animals in Alaska because the Caribou stick to large herds. That’s why there are large herds of caribou; they are not being killed off by anyone, human or other. Watch any film about wildlife in AK and it will tell you that.

As for Ass-lee Jugghead, she can kiss my rump. She needs to go out and get laid because she acts like she hasn’t had any for a year. She also doesn’t have a clue. Her viewpoint comes from the fog. If she really had any wits about her, she would have stayed with her mother and sister and joined in the fame, instead of heading off with a chip on her shoulder thinking she had any talent as an actress. She has only one style of acting and she cannot seem to deviate from that. It gets boring real fast.
My husband can’t stand her either.

Taking aim, Alice
