Message From Defenders of Wildlife

JUST RECEIVED THIS TODAY!!! IMPORTANT INFORMATION ON GOV. PALIN. WARNING THE VIDEO IS VERY DISTURBING BUT IT STATES THE FACTS - Jill

Dear Jill,

Tonight Alaska Governor Sarah Palin will accept the Republican nomination for Vice President, a position that would put her second in line to be President of the United States. But before she accepts, I need your help to let America know where she stands on the brutal and needless aerial hunting of wolves and bears.

Watch our new video on Palin’s awful record and share it with everyone you know who cares abut wildlife.

Get the facts on Sarah Palin.. Watch the video:

view link

Warning: This video is extremely disturbing. It contains graphic images of aerial hunting of wolves -- a brutal and needless practice that Governor Palin has fought hard to promote and expand.

Despite strong scientific, ethical and public opposition to aerial hunting, Governor Palin has…

* Proposed paying a $150 bounty for the left foreleg of each dead wolf.
* Approved a $400,000 state-funded propaganda campaign to promote aerial hunting.
* Introduced legislation to make it even easier to use aircraft to hunt wolves and bears.

If you care about wildlife, please watch this video right now -- and then share it with every friend, neighbor, conservationist and wildlife lover you know.

Tonight, all eyes will be on Governor Sarah Palin. Let’s make sure the whole nation knows about her awful record on aerial hunting and protecting wildlife.

Respectfully,

Rodger Schlickeisen, President
Defenders of Wildlife Action Fund

P.S. Please also share our video on blogs, social networks and elsewhere. I’ve pasted the link to the video below to help you spread the word:

Who needs a redneck VP?

This is from a college classmate and old friend. Read it, weep, and pass it on to anyone ---

Dear classmates -

As an Alaskan, I am writing to give all of you some information on

Sarah Palin, Senator McCain's choice for VP. As an Alaska voter, I

Know more than most of you about her and, frankly, I am horrified that

He picked her.

The most accurate description of her is red neck. Her husband works in

The oil fields of Prudhoe Bay and races snow mobiles. She is a life

Time member of the NRA and has worked tirelessly to allow

Indiscriminate hunting of wildlife in Alaska, particularly wolves and

Bears. She has spent millions of Alaska state dollars on aerial

Hunting of these predators from helicopters and airplanes, dollars

That should have been spent, for example, on Alaska's failing school

System.We have the lowest rate of high school graduation in the

Country. Not all of you may think aerial predator hunting is so bad,

But how anyone (other than Alaska wolf-haters, of which there are

Many, most without teeth), could think this use of funds is

Appropriate is beyond me. If you want to know more about the aerial

Hunting travesty, let me know and I will send some links to

Informative web sites.

She has been a strong supporter of increased use of fossil fuels, yet

The McCain campaign has the nerve to say she has "green" policies. The

Only thing green about Sarah Palin is her lack of experience. She has

Consistently supported drilling in ANWR, use of coal-burning power

Plants (as I write this, a new coal plant is being built in her home

Town of Wasilla), strip mining, and almost anything else that will

Unnecessarily exploit the diminishing resources of Alaska and destroy

Its environment.

Prior to her one year as governor of Alaska, she was mayor of Wasilla,

A small red neck town outside Anchorage.The average maximum education

Level of parents of junior high school kids in Wasilla is 10th grade.

Unfortunately, I have to go to Wasilla every week to get groceries and

Other supplies, so I have continual contact with the people who put

Palin in office in the first place. I know what I'm talking about.

These people don't have a concept of the world around them or of the

Serious issues facing the US. Furthermore, they don't care. So long as

They can go out and hunt their moose every fall, kill wolves and bears

And drive their snow mobiles and ATVs through every corner of the

Wilderness, they're happy. I wish I were exaggerating.

Sarah Palin is currently involved in a political corruption scandal.

She fired an individual in law enforcement here because she didn't

Like how he treated one of her relatives during a divorce. The man's

Performance and ability weren't considered; it was a totally personal

Firing and is currently under investigation. While the issue isn't

Close to the scandal of Ted Steven's corruption, it shows that Palin

Isn't "squeaky clean" and causes me to think there may be more issues

That could come to light. Clearly McCain doesn't care.

When you line Palin up with Biden, the comparison would be laughable

If it weren't so serious. Sarah Palin knows nothing of economics

(admittedly a weak area for McCain), or of international affairs,

Knows nothing of national government, Social Security, unemployment,

Health care systems - you name it. The idea of her meeting with heads

Of foreign governments around the world truly frightens me.

In an increasingly dangerous world, with the economy in shambles in

The US, Sarah Palin is uniquely UNqualified to be vice president. John

McCain is not a young man. Should something happen to him such that

The vice president had to step in, it would destroy our country and

Possibly the world to have someone as inexperienced and inappropriate

As Sarah Palin. The choice of Palin is a cheap shot by McCain to try

To get Hillary supporters to vote for him. When McCain introduced her

Today, Palin had the nerve to compare herself with Hillary and

Geraldine Ferraro. Sarah Palin, you are no Hillary Clinton.

To those of you who, like me, supported Hillary and were upset that she

Did not get the nomination, please don't think that Sarah Palin is a

Worthy substitute. If you supported Hillary, regardless of what you

Think the media and the democratic party may have done to undermine

Her campaign, the person to support now is Obama, not Sarah Palin. To

those of you who are independent or undecided, don't let the choice of

Palin sway you in favor of McCain. Choosing her shows how unqualified

McCain is to be president. To those of you who are conservative, I

guess you have no choice for president. But please try to see how the

poor choice of Palin tells us a great deal about McCain's judgment.

While the political posturing inherent in the choice of Palin is

obvious, the more serious issue is the fact that the VP is, literally,

a heartbeat away from the presidency. Sarah Palin is totally and

unequivocally unqualified to be vice president, let alone president.

I know this is a lengthy and emotional email, but the stakes are high.

I thought it might help for all of you, regardless of political

affiliation, to know something about Palin from someone who has to

live with her administration in Alaska on a daily basis.

Wolves and Women have much in common. Both share a wild spirit. Women and Wolves are instinctual creatures, able to sense the unseen. They are loyal, protective of their packs and of their pups. They are wild and beautiful. Both have been hunted and captured. Even in captivity, one can see in the eyes of a Woman, or a Wolf, the longing to run free, and the determination that should the opportunity arise, Whoosh, they will be gone.

Shocking Choice by John McCain

It couldn't be worst, I'm sorry to say for our wolves in Alaska! I just received this e-mail from Defenders of Wildlife and thought I should share it. I'm really pissed (excused my language) about this.......

Dear Jill,

A few hours ago, the news broke that Alaska Governor Sarah Palin has been selected by Sen. John McCain as the vice presidential candidate for the Republican ticket.

As a Defenders of Wildlife Action Fund supporter, you are no doubt aware of Governor Palin’s dismal record, from her staunch support for special interests and Big Oil to her terrible assault on wolves and other wildlife.

As much of the nation wonders just who Sarah Palin is, I wanted to pass along my statement that I've just released.

Please read it and pass it along to everyone you know.

Thanks for your continued support,
Rodger Signature

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Shocking Choice by John McCain

WASHINGTON-- Senator John McCain just announced his choice for running mate: Governor Sarah Palin of Alaska. To follow is a statement by Rodger Schlickeisen, president of Defenders of Wildlife Action Fund.

“Senator McCain’s choice for a running mate is beyond belief. By choosing Sarah Palin, McCain has clearly made a decision to continue the Bush legacy of destructive environmental policies.

“Sarah Palin, whose husband works for BP (formerly British Petroleum), has repeatedly put special interests first when it comes to the environment. In her scant two years as governor, she has lobbied aggressively to open up the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge to drilling, pushed for more drilling off of Alaska’s coasts, and put special interests above science. Ms. Palin has made it clear through her actions that she is unwilling to do even as much as the Bush administration to address the impacts of global warming. Her most recent effort has been to sue the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service to remove the polar bear from the endangered species list, putting Big Oil before sound science. As unbelievable as this may sound, this actually puts her to the right of the Bush administration.

“This is Senator McCain’s first significant choice in building his executive team and it’s a bad one. It has to raise serious doubts in the minds of voters about John McCain’s commitment to conservation, to addressing the impacts of global warming and to ensuring our country ends its dependency on oil.”
