My dad used to write a food and entertainment column for the Mpls. Tribune. Once he did a piece about a roast dog he was served in Hong Kong. I think the death threats resulted from the description of the ride in the elevator of the high-rise, the delicious smell of the dog roasting, and the frenzied yapping and howling of the pets in the building who sensed that something was terribly wrong.> > Actually when I lived in Brainerd, MN about 16 years ago, the > Department of Health closed down the very popular Chinese restaurant > in town because they caught them cooking up cats and dogs.

Huh? That's gotta be the weakest defense of a racist comment I've heard in
a long time...... I'm sure everyone on the list was thinking "Oh he's
referring to the country" - not the race that happens to live there. By the
way if he was referring to the country he would have said, "So is ITS
cuisine" not "So is THEIR cuisine."
BTW - I happen to be Asian and can recognize when something is offensive or
not. Good litmus test - ask yourself if you would be willing to make the
same comment in front of a room full of folks.

Brian, since you asked me what I think rather than telling me what
to think I'll respond.
It's called "First Family" law. Allows members of the family to
travel with elected officials at state expense as all are
representatives of the State. Most states have the same provisions
in their government statutes.
I know it would have made your day if the headline could read "AK
White Trash Governor Abandons Family for Politics" or some similar
drivel.
Personally I don't feel like "spreading the wealth around" or "time
for us to be more Patriotic and pay higher taxes" are ideas I can
get my narrow little gun loving, trailer trash, religion clinging,
multiple small business owner, mind around as your favored
candidates so handily do.
But thats just me.

Yes Brian "First Family"
You already know this but for some that don't.
Gov Palin is from Wasilla, that is her official resident city.
Wasilla is 50 miles or so by road from Anchorage, the commercial
capitol of our state.
Alaska's capitol is Juneau, about 500 air miles from Anchorage.
Juneau cannot be reached by road, only air or water.
So the Gov lives in Wasilla, does most state business in Anchorage,
but must travel to Juneau for any thing to do with the Legislature.
So yes we pay for a lot of airfares.
Last Gov was a 60-70 year old man who didn't even take his wife with
him on trips. His great idea was for the State to buy a jet.
She sold the jet.
Yeah, I can really see the appeal of a Senator who has written two
books, about himself, but whos' name does not appear anywhere on any
sort of significant legislation.
Since you like guns, as do I, maybe you can explain why your favored
candidate tells one audience that "If you have a gun in your home
I'm not going to come take it away" but later the same day tells a
different demographic audience that "If you have a gun in your home
I'm not going to come take it away....because I won't have enough
votes in the House to pass such a law"
Income redistribution
Patriotic to pay more taxes
Class warfare it sounds like to me.
But thats just me.
Oh, by the way I'm no fan of Sarah Palin, but also I'm no fan of the
hyper frenzy the media and those such as yourself have whipped up
about her. If she comes back as our Gov she'll have some hard
questions to answer from the residents of the various Pan-Handle
communities who have been ignored on some key issues. But we
Alaskans will work that out without the help of the media nor
the "white guilt" crowd.
Now will someone please start a good oil or electrical thread???

Anyone done business with Hot Foot Moto.
