Hi!
I agree with ms. Cho more than you can, er, know...
I live in the Mat Su Valley of Alaska. I've lived in Wasilla, though now I live a few miles down the road in nearby Palmer. It's much nicer. Wasilla doesn't have a sewage plant. The federal government gave us money to build one, but when palin was mayor of the town she spent the money on a sports complex and a skate park. the skate park was so her kids would have a place to skate off of the road. The sewage of wasilla is pumped into a giant leech field, and the foul liquid, and fetid vapor seeps into the ground water, with minimal processing (you can really tell too) it's sent out of peoples' taps and back into their sinks. eeewwww!
The solids, by the way, are routinely trucked down the Parks Highway to Anchorage for processing, which is VERY expensive.
Her church has had a history of being downright nasty. I go to a church called the Church of the Covenant. We have a motto: There are no Outcasts. And we live up to it. We have two Transpeople, about 4 to 6 gay and bi people, and for a fellowship of about 20 in the middle of Alaska, that's doing pretty good. We even have as our recently retired pastor the incredible Howard Bess. His book "Pastor, I'm Gay" really helped me pull my da-da together when I was in the psych hospital a couple of years ago. Anyway Her church has been actively giving us grief for years. It's amazing how some people can take Jesus' ideas and pervert them into the opposite of Love your god, Love your neighbor, Love your enemy, and Love yourself....
She's a very hateful, spiteful and Vengeful person. Yuck! (She also tried to ban library books, her idea of education isn't very hopeful...)
