Defenders of Wildlife Action Fund put out an ad on Sarah Palin's policies concerning shooting wolves from helicopters.



Shit. They allow shooting in winter when there's nothing but white tundra and nowhere for the wolf to run.

And she put out a bounty for each severed wolf leg?

The more I learn about her, the more it scares the crap out of me that she could be one short step away from the Presidency.

I get their email updates and one (sort of) good thing is that earlier this week they sent an email at 11 am asking for fund raising to show that ad. They were hoping to get it by the end of September. By 4 pm they sent another email stating they had already received enough to show it in some of the bigger markets. I do believe that people are starting to not only have some strong ideas about this/her, but are also willing to act on them.

Check out their main site for their past articles about the fight against aerial hunting. Warning: some contain rather graphic pictures.

Heh. I'd read that. I'll especially like that pause where the wolf decides if he should make her into a werewolf and send her across the tundra, or have lunch.

Ooo. That's a good idea. But we'll have to wait till after the election... way, a mysterious plan crash the FAA won't investigate.

Okay, I will.

Boy. I knew from the Gloria Steinem article that she was for aerial hunting, I just didn't realize the terrain and time of year make it shooting fish in a barrel. Plus, this is ultra-rich thing. Who else would hire a private bush plane to shoot animals?

At first I thought she was completely unqualified. Then I thought she was also an ultra-conservative religious nut I didn't want in office. Then I found out she was fiscally incompetent on top of it all.

This is the first time she's creeped me out.

Hmm. Her vengeful nature, sense of entitlement, and absolute lack of forethought about consequences would probably make her far better suited to life as a supernatural monster than most people.

Words fail me. I just... ARGH! Animal cruelty is something I simply DO NOT GET!

And it's not like she's ignorant about hunting. She knows exactly what she's doing with that bounty.
