Phil, people who I know want to know if this is for really real a rendering of the actual meeting. I assume that it is, but can you confirm?

I believe it is. His rendering gives it a different sort of meaning, and he may be using some contractions.

I've been to Wasilla and Whittier City Council meetings that would have made this one seem rather complex and idea-chocked.

Very, VERY funny........and scary at the same time. We can't let this woman become VP. We just can't.

"Executive experience" ??????

OMG, that was, I am sorry to say, 'HICK CITY, on ice!!!!' And as I have been to numerous Session Meetings over the years in Georgia, I can attest, in rural areas, THAT IS EXACTLY the type of statements you hear, and worse. She is like, well you betcha, I am a maverick, on a team of mavericks, and also, like Joe 6Pack (wink, wink ;) and the hockey Mom's out there like me know that this is all about sexism, and those network interviews asked all those 'gothcha questions' like do I read the paper to keep me informed about world events and can I name a Supremes court decision. Well, gosh darnit, there you go again, cus and also it so obvious (wink, wink, flirt , flirt, XXX magazine smile) that I'm not from Washington cuz I'm a maverick on a team of mavericks and also like boy howdy that was something so as I said it's really all about the country and putting it first unlike some people whose name rhymes with GoBama but thats like also that we are the consumate mavericks and goodness gracious me, also its all about reducing spending and reducing taxes because ummm,,,and deficit spending and all that and it was the great Reagan who showed it was possible but I read ALL the newspapers and magazines and Roe V Wade was a great decision because I can actually name it and also that like Todd, the first Dud is also so cool, so "Right On!", also it's a bad economic time so Putin may rear his head, and where do you think he flies???? Into Alaska...so I certainly do have international diplomatic experience because I can SEE Russia from my house and also Putin and I are mavericks....
Gov Phalin, the ultimate ignorant, fatuous, intransigent, raconteur. Her effrontery knows no end, her hackneyed, rote phrases embody her essence.
