Defenders of Wildlife Launch Attack on Palin

Those of you who actually believe that this is an attempt to "manage" wildlife are more gullible & naive than I can imagine any adult being. Wildlife manages itself just fine...until humans get involved. Gov. Palin's office themselves admitted that this was a move to get money from the trophy hunters, as well as an attempt to keep the wolves from eating the caribou...which is a big revenue draw from tourists who want to kill the caribou themselves. So, the justification...let man shoot the wolves from airplanes (no better than a caged hunt) so the tourists can shoot the caribou & mount their heads on their walls at home. Yup, that sure sounds like "wildlife management" to me...HA! Sounds like pocketbook management to me. And what is all this whiney garbage about the mean ole' media picking on Palin & McCain?! Poor politicians...how dare we, the American public, get the actual FACTS??!! We have no right to see voting records & hear their stances on issues in the past! How DARE the media try to inform us so we can make the right choice for our country!! Bullies!! (rolling eyes) We are supposed to just TRUST John McCain to tell us the truth. Heaven knows he's been all together truthful with us so far! (Bridge to Nowhere, earmarks, abuse of power, supporting troops & veterans...I could go on for hours). Get informed people & quit falling for Karl Rove's below the belt tactics to win at any cost...even if it costs the American people!!! So I guess by me using Palin's own words & her justification for these "hunts" makes me a mean ole' bully too. Pardon me for not wanting this election to end up like the last two have. All those who voted for W because he would be fun to have a beer with should be quite happy now. Ugh.
