Ask the Washu

silence

2009-04-22T02:07:00.000-07:00

I have been silent for way to long. let me tell you whats going on here in A town. Where to begin...? Has anyone seen that Tyra show with Bristol's baby daddy? Well I did and it was a mess. Some people may think that boy was and is lying about the Palin's, I think its all true. It is a shame that the boy is not in the child's life more. Some people may say that the Palin's are justified in limiting their visitation due to current legal problems in her exes family. What a minute , let he who is without sin cast the first stone. I looked up the Palin family in the court records here in Anchorage and guess what I found? I found numerous entries for the Palin family and one in particular that happens to be the talk of the town now.

Remember "Trooper Gate"? Well, I hate to beat a dead hoarse,but here goes. The same sister that Sarah defended so passionately that was the main reason the Palin family had issues with a certain trooper. Well that sister was caught robbing a house so she can get money for drugs. Now ain't that pot calling the kettle black. Not only did she get caught trying to rob the place, she had her youngest daughter outside in the car waiting. Now she faces charges of burglary and child endangerment. It would seem that there are drug related problems on both sides of the family.

On a funnier note...There are these rather cool signs that have popped up ( two that I know of)
the signs read "IMPEACH PALIN" in bold capital letters. I thought that might make you laugh.
Keep checking out my site I plan on sticking around. There are allot of things I can blog on long after this Palin storm passes. Can you believe this women is seriously thinking about running for president? If that happens may everything good and right with the universe help us.

Palin at it again

2008-12-18T07:40:00.000-08:00

Hello everyone,

Sorry to have been silent for so long. I have been having a hard time deciding what to inform on next. Well today we have a winner. I was listening to talk radio 750 am here in Alaska and I heard a developing story involving Palin's office. Apparently some aides are circulating racist e-mails about the Obama's. The e-mail (which the associated press has a copy of) states that with all the money Obama raised and with the winning of the election he only succeeded in putting another Black Family in Government Housing. I think it is safe to say that the wound is very fresh for allot of white Americans in Alaska, when McCain and Palin lost to a Black man. Of course the Governor's office has yet to make a commit (After what was said during the election I would imagine that Mrs. Palin is trying to think up a response that would not further alienate her from the minority residents here in Alaska) on the e-mail running threw her office.

It gets better and better here in the last frontier. I got allot more stuff to share with the world since the media is not reporting on everything (as usual). So stay tuned I'll be back later today with a few more tid bits for everyone to munch on....

Let the Deception begin!!!!

2008-11-12T19:42:00.000-08:00

Good day America, I thought I should drop a line today and weigh in on the latest Palin farce.
Today I read a story on cnn.com titled "Palin says she'd be honored to help Obama". That's funny to me seeing how she ran such a slanderous campaign. Here in Alaska we are not surprised yet again by Mrs. Palin's flip flopping ways. I find it hard to believe that she would be of any help to anyone she felt "does not see this Country the way she does", if that is the truth ( we all know how the truth works in Alaska) why would she now be willing to sit down with someone that she basically insinuated is not on her level and try and work on programs or projects? There is an old saying ; Keep your friend close and your enemies closer. Could the Governor of Alaska be thinking about that same saying when she offers help and unity? While we are on the subject of association, what about her and Mr. Palin's connection to the organization that is currently trying to find ways to break Alaska from the Union? This is a clean cut example of the pot calling the kettle black, in my opinion. If I was a member of the Obama family or a player in the Democrated party I would want to know Mrs. Palin's true motives for wanting to be a team player. This Country has been under the control of waring parties for far to long. This is our Country too we should have more say in what happens here than we do. I do not think it is fair for the rich to dictate our lives to suite themselves instead of all of us. All I know is that if it was not for the people the rich would have no money and no power. We work in their businesses and their factories, but we still always end up on the bottom of the totem pole. Our economy is failing not because of us and our credit woes, its because of the greed and wastefulness of the same people we work for. Instead of having their names turned to mud like ours when we mess up, the government is bailing them out. Why not bail out the people of this great country who are losing their homes and jobs due to the failings of the so called power wielders? If we are the ones cutting down the trees, why are we getting the short end of the stick? Just some food for thought.

A New Day Is Dawning!!!

2008-11-05T18:56:00.000-08:00

Congratulations America, we did it!!!! know that we know someone is listening, we might be able to get our lives back. Its time to show and prove. There are allot of things we have to fix in our Country, one of the most important is to bring our sons and daughters home. I think our economy can be fixed if we stop letting the conglomerates and corporations from writing checks with our money. I don't see bailing out the rich and financial institutions as a way of helping us everyday people pay our bills or get out of debt. If the Government wanted to truly help us they would have bailed us out of debt ( our debts can not and do not total hundreds of millions of dollars ) , then we would have money to open businesses and spend more money. What do you think America? Let me know. Hell let the world know , we need a bailout too.!!

The Law is the Law, if we continue on this road we might as well have no Laws since the laws in this Country obviously only apply to the poor or the minorities of this Great Country!!!!

It was only a matter of time before she turned on McCain's camp, I am just happy she came out the closet on everyone now instead of when it would have been to late. Who in their right mind would vote this women into the Presidency in 2012, when she is not prepared to even be the Vice President now?

America, check out how Palin is helping the Natives here in Alaska. She makes all these claims about how she has brought real change to Alaska. If this is her so called change, we would all be in trouble ( only people that are low income, since we are not all in her circle of trust).! The Natives pay more to live than anyone else in this State. Imagine that, her husband is Yupik is he not? So why is his grandmothers people suffering so much? You would think having a wife with so much power and being her confidant, he would have been able to get them some relief. Also did you that the high oil and gas prices here ( we pay a dollar more than the rest of the U.S) our Governor has the power to lower these things, but since she is trying so hard to be our new V.P, she has forgotten our little community here,even though this is where she made the most promises to get into politics in the first place.Is this the thanks Alaska gets for putting our trust in this woman's abilities to run a State. Look out America her sights are on you now!!!

The ugly face of truth

2008-10-11T16:00:00.000-07:00

Readers,

unfortunately lately the old face of this country has been rearing its ugly head. I have been reading news stories of the hatred being expressed at these McCain - Palin rallies. The news article on cnn.com saying McCain wants Obama to say something about a commit another Democrat made in reference to the old hatred of old America ( you know the one I am talking about..Yessah you do ) , when McCain referred to Obama as "that one" during the debate , he was basically telling his followers that its okay to be disrespectful , that and the fact,that McCain would not even look at Obama during the first debate. The only reason why McCain tried to say something nice about Obama during one of those rallies with the hateful outburst like "kill him",
he only did that because the world was watching at the time. I think in a private setting who knows what McCain would have said behind close doors?

Think about it America , his running mate has racial issues of her own to deal with here in Alaska.

People of America read this and decide for yourself. I think she is in the wrong for what she did, and the fact that McCain's office is trying to say she is vindicated is ridiculous at best. This is our future if she makes it to the White House. People on her bad list better watch out, because she will use her new position to get us all.

On my mind

2008-10-04T20:47:00.000-07:00

I wonder sometimes , why it is so hard for some people to read between the lines. I mean it is not to say that anyone is dumb I just don't understand why they don't see what is right before their eyes. Most of the times people believe everything they see on t.v without question , even when you try to tell them whats really going on they think your crazy or your jealous on some level. Its okay to think for yourself and question things you do not understand. In questioning things you gain understanding , where there was none before.

I think the difference in all of us is what makes this world the way it is. Instead of trying to change each other we should try and understand what makes us different. The only way to do that is to talk to each other and try to see through each others eyes. We are all human, are we not? In knowing so why is it so hard to start a dialog with one another? Only animals fight to solve conflict, so are we animals since we always fight what we do not understand?

Think about whats on my mind, then look into yourself and see if you don't have the same questions and more. We can start a dialog, and in doing so maybe we can begin to understand our world and try to fix it.

It only takes ONE!!!

This is an interesting fact I found. It tells about the troop funding that McCain says Obama wanted to cut , when in fact it was the giving of more money that Obama was against. Also there is the fact that McCain did not even vote on the second bill in this article and even though he did not vote it was passed and McCain asked Bush to veto it and Bush did. Sounds like McCain has some sway with the current President.

The Good Ship Palin

2008-09-30T23:58:00.000-07:00

The Good Ship Palin is running aground here in Alaska.The people of the State of Alaska are showing more and more dislike for Mrs. Palin's politics or lack there of. There have been several rallies in show of non-support for Palin here in Alaska. The McCain office would like people to believe that Obama's campaign is behind all Mrs. Palin's woes. I'm here to set the record straight. His office is not involved in noway. He had nothing to do with the State Legislator starting an investigation against her. These things were going on before McCain decided to make her famous. How can she be the most popular Governor in the Country when half the Country did not even know who she was or where she comes from. That (and I will take McCain's word he used to describe the media) Gotcha Politics, is what he and Mrs. Palin are playing at. It is time for Americans to let our politicians know that this is not a game this is our lives. If Mrs. Palin has nothing to hide and did not abuse her power , why so many smoke screens in the air now? She needs to come home and clean her backyard , before she tries to tend the Country's yard.

State of Emergency

2008-09-30T18:09:00.000-07:00

Mrs. Palin needs to come home and fix her state. The Native population was reported in our local newspaper that they are having to relocate to cities here in Alaska because of the growing energy crisis affecting rural Alaska. Her trying to get to the White House is not benefiting anyone here in Alaska. We hired her to do a job and she has yet to fulfill her obligations to the State and its people. I watched a news brief today on Sarah and Mr. McCain, I was shocked to say the least at how McCain defended Palin's commit over the weekend about Pakistan saying we would use force if necessary. When Obama hinted at the same thing McCain blasted him for it during the debate. I guess its Gotcha Politics he's playing at when it suites him and his party.

America do we really have two different societies in the Country? One that follows the laws and another that bends and manipulates it to suite there needs and wants?

Please go to : adn.com for more info on our problems here in Alaska. I hope you all read our online paper so America does not make the same mistake Alaska did in hiring Palin.

TrooperGate ( HA HA)

2008-09-30T05:04:00.000-07:00

After claiming that she would cooperate with the State Legislator investigation. Mrs. Palin's staff as well as other people with insight on some level to what took place in the firing of Moneghan. Have not shown up for questioning even after being subpoenaed( one of the no shows was Mr. Palin). If anyone of us non-political citizens were to not show up, we would be arrested. This Country would not be sending a good message to its people if Palin is allowed to live and act by different laws just because she was lucky enough out of all the housewives across America to get on a Presidential ticket.

Its time for us to let our voices be heard and tell the politicians that you can not break the law or be under investigation for breaking the law and be rewarded with a higher office in Government.

Out of the Wilderness

2008-09-30T02:45:00.000-07:00

Hello,
America

This is the Washu coming to you from Alaska. I will be posting news, info as well as website info to check my blog information. It would appear the our Governor Sarah Palin is running for a position that shes not ready for. Here in Alaska we have a different view of Mrs. Palin. She has little or no interaction with her very diverse community here in Alaska, not only is like pulling teeth to get the lady to sit down and talk about the issues concerning our communities . She is currently under investigation for abuse of power ( I might add this investigation has been going on way before Mr. McCain made his announcement of V.P pick).

I do not want to overwhelm anyone in my first blog so I will end it on this note : America do we really want to put an unqualified, stammering individual in the White House?
