I don't care if Todd and Sarah support an old, washed-up secessionist group
that hates America and wants to secede from the union, the issue is honesty.

Why won't the Palins tell the truth about their 10 year relationship with the Alaska Independence Party? :shrug: :eyes:

1. Because the AIP extremism is real. The "...we're not Americans..." party is a buncha nutbags...
...who don't want to go through legal means to get what they want.

2. You almost got the McCain spin going right except you
didn't get the grumpy old man snark vocalization quite right. LOL

3. Yeah, using the cranky ol', "I don't give a damn", is crucial.

4. I agree.
Why are we looking towards the past here?

Besides, secession is merely an academic idea anyways.

I mean, when has a state ever actually seceded?

Name one state that was ever admitted to the Union that is no longer in the Union.

See? I rest my case. :)
