Sarah Palin Despised by Animal Rights Advocates

For All the Wrong Reasons

McCain and Sarah Palin or Barack Obama and Joe Biden? If you are at a loss to make a decision who to vote for now that Sarah Palin is on the Republican ticket, you are not alone. The 2008 Presidential race has turned into an entertaining and almost humorous event. What cannot be argued though, is that the Republican decision to put Mrs. Palin on the ticket was a strategically brilliant move.

Listening to the latest arguments concerning morals and good character, one cannot help but notice a few interesting facts. It is now possible to identify the different types of Hilary Clinton supporters, and the reasons they have for not wanting to let go. The first variety of Hilary fan is the one who wanted a woman in office. Period. If this is such an issue, then one is not a Democrat or a Rebublican, and Mrs.Palin is a great candidate for your support. Then there are the Hilary-ites who love Hilary because she is an upstanding and decent citizen; not even the crustiest Republican can deny this fact. But wait; Mrs. Palin happens to be Governor of Alaska too. I think good character had something to do with this. Next, we discover that there are also the Hilary supporters who will hold on tight because "that Sarah Palin woman is cruel to animals". Wrong.

In Arkansas, and most other states of this fine country, millions of people are avid hunters. Hilary Clinton was no exception. Mrs. Clinton learned to handle a gun at a young age. In a jovial conversation in Wausau, WIS. Clinton (2008) spoke of her memories of one particular duck hunting trip. "The pressure was on. So I shot, and I shot a banded duck and they were surprised as I was" (para.2). Contrary to popular belief, any good hunter's main priority is to shoot with accuracy and kill their target so the animal does not suffer. Of course accidents happen, that is why they are called accidents.
