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.

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,

1. She also supoorts the aerial hunting of bears...

A real lovely lady.

2. Wonder how this ties in with her "excellent environmental record" that Fred Thompson...

...and Tommy Ridge were bullshitting us about last night...

How "maternal" of her to slaughter innocent animals and their pups...:grr:

[tblue]

3. As if I needed another reason to detest her.

There is nothing about this woman I like or relate to.

4. Proud to be #5. Off to the Greatest with you!

5. Sickening.

[K8-EEE]

6. $400,000 CAMPAIGN TO PROMOTE THIS??? OF STATE MONEY?

That is shocking to me....

7. Does she make sure that none of the wolves are pregnant first?

Wait a minute, wait a minute, let me consult my Republican Language Handbook:

Hmmm ... page 137 ... ah here it is:

"The death of an unborn child is only a sin or moral crime if it is the result of a choice by the mother. Unborn deaths due to bombs or bullets from U.S. military operations, malnutrition, environmental contamination, or lack of pre-natal care are not a cause for grief, and in some cases are cause for celebration for the spread of freedom or the free market. Unborn animals, of course, mean nothing in the eyes of God."

Nevermind.

8. I wasn't prepared for that

Didn't know it would be that graphic. Actually seeing the aerial assaults makes it even more offensive.

What is wrong with these people?

9. She also over rode her Department of Wildlife

who were against the aerial hunting. Disgusting, what is wrong with these people. I mentioned on another post she also would like to weaken the US ban on importation of baby harp seal skins.

10. One of the most barbaric and upsetting things to see. They aren't hunters, they're killers.

[trthnd4jstc]

11. I think, Why? then I go, probably so the population of game would be higher?

Is that right? Is the reason for aerial hunting to bring in tourist dollars of hunters? Increase small plane traffic? Decrease populations of Bears and Wolves? I hate hunting for game, and I hate a disrespect of any life. Hunting should be done the way the Cherokees, or the Souix did it, not is this Pirate method.

12. Not a good person
