I'll admit it. I enjoy watching "Sarah Palin's Alaska

[RandySF]

Yes, I enjoy watching it. I've had an interest in Alaska for some time as a place to visit and a potential future purple state (Obama would have done much better had Palin not been on the GOP ticket). As annoying as the twit is, I enjoy watching the places she visits. Hopefully, I can visit the state in the next few years.

1. no one is willing to give me $1000 per episode to watch.

And that is the only way I will waste the time and allow my blood pressure to elevate.

2. LOL

5. You couldn't pay me enough. Just her voice alone makes me sick.

3. Watch "Into the Wild" instead.

Good film, and you don't have to endure Sister Sarah.

6. Excellent suggestion.

And in the future, watch for the film "Everybody Loves Whales" with Drew Barrymore and Ted Danson, among others. They've been up here filming for the past few months, much to everyone's delight, and the movie should be pretty good. It's about the rescue of the trapped whales up in Barrow several years ago.

10. Hadn't heard of that...will keep an eye out. (n/t)

19. One of my favorite movies and books! The soundtrack by Eddie Vedder is also terrific.

4. oh good grief

Imagine that... Sarah equating to information and entertainment :eyes: whatever

7. I think you should learn to treat yourself better.

If it is Alaska you are interested in there are many, many more enjoyable
ways to learn about that otherwise pristine and beautiful place.

8. I haven't watched any of Sarah Palin's Alaska

(for the simple reason that I have my own Alaska that I watch every day) so I can't really comment as to the quality or reality of her show, but let me extend a personal invitation to you to visit our fair state any time. I tell all my online friends that they owe it to themselves to come up here at least once to experience Alaska for themselves. There really are wonders to be seen here, and no travelogue or "reality show" can do it justice.

9. HUH???

("Obama would have done much better had Palin not been on the GOP ticket").

Are you serious? My republican husband has never voted for a Democrat in his life. Then he considered this illiterate, nasty woman a heartbeat away - and voted for Obama. Same goes for 90% of my republican acquaintances.

Obama won by millions of votes BECAUSE of John McCain's ill-fated lunacy of choosing the Alaska dingbat.

JMO.

12. For real

What the hell was he thinking ?

[Blue_In_AK]

13. I may be misinterpreting RandySF,

but I took him to mean that Obama could have taken Alaska, a purple state, had Palin not been on the ticket. In fact, Obama was leading in some polls here prior to Sarah's nomination -- she even spoke highly of him herself in a New Yorker magazine article that came out earlier in the summer of 2008. But, of course, with her being an Alaskan (and not overtly batshit crazy at the time) many people here voted for her as a "favorite daughter." NOW we know better...

[katanalori]

16. Yep - here is the article you refer to:

http://www.newyorker.com/talk/2008/09/08/080908ta_talk_gourevitch/

Palin is such a phony bitch.

[Blue_In_AK]

20. Thanks for posting that again.

I was too lazy to look it up. :blush: She doesn't seem like the same person.

15. Maybe you are watching something else and are confused.

[JI7]

17. does it seem like TLC is making fun of her ? it always seems that way with the Duggars

[WinkyDink]

18. Surely you can find DVD's on Amazon. Don't support PALIN, FGS!
