It's sad that in a world that has experienced Stalin and the Czars, Romania and Bosnia and the Ruthinian persecutions, a "first world" nation can still choose autocratic terrorists like Palin to such a "responsible" position as Mayor, let alone Governor.  Do the schools systems in Alaska work at all?  Is there no attention given to how to protect a democracy by learning the patterns in History?  Ugh.  What a mess Alaskans keep making for themselves.&lt;br /&gt;Brianne</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3710553959634186223/5535099494082061409/comments/default/381429088359453228'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3710553959634186223/5535099494082061409/comments/default/381429088359453228'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.bentalaska.com/2008/09/palmer-pastors-gay-positive-book-was-on.html?showComment=1241589517278#c381429088359453228' title=''/><author><name>Brianne.

I've corrected it now - moved that link up to the first mention of Howard Bess, and linked the Stuart and Bess quotes to the article where I first read them.
