Sarah Palin, Meth Kingpin
OK, not really. But while VP candidate Sarah Palin was mayor of Wasilla from 1996 to 2002, the area (specifically the Matanuska-Susitna area) won the title of Meth Capital of Alaska. (An aside: check out the SLOG today to see Palin get ripped to shreds, you know, if that's your thing.) We recommend you read this article out about the tweakiest city in Alaska during '02-'03, which features kids going hungry, the authorities doing very little, and one 13-year-old Wasilla boy bragging to the fuzz that his "mom cooked the best meth in the valley." Lucky bastard. (Juneau Empire)

Best. Quote. Ever.
My cousin has lived in Wasilla for years. I gotta ask her if she's got any inside scoop. Although, hmm, now that I think about it, my cousin may be a republican. It's entirely possible, knowing my family.
Ok, knock off the Sarah Palin slaps, huh? The only thing Obama is going to change is the color of the face in the White House - that and his continued support for Muslims.
Obama was stupid. He should have chosen Hillary and lived with it then Palin would be nothing to talk about. But he didn't. He went with that numbchuck Biden.
Dear God, what HAPPENED to the Democratic Party? Stupid people leading more stupid people. We see it every day!
