She tried to sell a jet on eBay In 2006 Sarah Palin tried to sell the Westwind II jet that had previously been bought by the hugely unpopular incumbent, Frank Murkowski. Initially Palin listed the jet for sale on eBay. Undaunted after three unsuccessful attempts to sell the jet, she sold it through a broker for $2.1 million, at a loss of only half a million dollars.

Pierce said: i live in oregon and have firsthand experience of seeing the destruction of hunting and fishing from g. w. bush. he ok'national forest cutting near us and the deer hunting nearby has all but disappeared. also, with the lack of good farm bills to keep family farms going, it's been difficult to find farms to hunt. lastly, with the high cost of living, it has become too expensive to hunt or fish.

Flag this comment as offensive At 10:34 AM, 2008-09-09, Skeptic said: mack - let's get real. it sounds as though you don't care much for ol or it's readers. what we need in this country, are politicians who have some type of moral compass - irrespective of race, gender or party line. we need leaders who understand the need for a healthy environment, for wilderness and species protection. our environment is afterall, a closed system. what we put in stays in. it will come back - to help us or hurt us. if our environment is sick, we are sick. our environment, like it or not, provides us with life and sustinence. i am tired of politicians who are looking out for themselves and their own financial health. we should not be voting based on age, gender, race or political party. this country needs to return to its roots. we need to pick ourselves up, get strong, and get united. we need to shake up the politicians and tell them we are tired of their antics - of their scams, their corruption, and their greed. "politicians" used to volunteer to help out - they had jobs - real jobs. they weren't leeches drinking off the blood of society. they didn't have condos in dc, where they could escape their families and bring 'escorts'. we have let them run wild without the slightest bit of accountability. well, that's how i see it anyway.

Flag this comment as offensive At 4:10 AM, 2008-09-09, mack said: i realize this isn't really a political forum,but i do have to ask: a) anybody met a politician yet, or for that matter known anybody who didn't at least once in a while contradict himself/herself? b) why is gov palin criticized for having kids and aspiring to the #2 office, but any male politician (or hitlery) having kids and wanting the #1 slot is ok? c) would we really prefer a president whose political record indicates inability or unwillingness to take a stand on an issue over someone who will walk away from a job worth $125k a year on principle? d) do we really want a president who engages in the kind of activities the subscribers to this magazine do, or one who only pays lip service to agreeing with the heller decision and says that he won't come after your sporting guns but whose own meager record shows this to be unlikely?
