Phyllis Schlafly Elephant: Anti-Feminist Mentor at the Core of Palin Strategy
"Phyllis Stewart Schlafly (born August 15, 1924, in St. Louis, Missouri) is an American conservative political activist known for her opposition to feminism and the Equal Rights Amendment. Her bestselling book, A Choice, Not An Echo, was published in 1964 from her home in Alton, Illinois, across the Mississippi River from her native St. Louis. From this self-publication, she formed her Pere Marquette Publishers company. A Choice, Not an Echo decries the power of the "Eastern Establishment" in the Republican Party once exercised by New York Governors Thomas E. Dewey and Nelson A. Rockefeller. Schlafly supported U.S. Senator Barry M. Goldwater in his unsuccessful race against Lyndon B. Johnson. (Sound familiar, folks???)
Schlafly has co-authored several books on national defense and was highly critical of arms-control agreements with the former Soviet Union.[2] In 1961 she wrote that arms control "will not stop Red aggression any more than disarming our local police will stop murder, theft, and rape."[3]
Schlafly continues to exert some influence within the Republican Party and maintains an active presence on the lecture circuit. In 1972, she founded the Eagle Forum, and was the founder and president of a sister organization known as the Eagle Forum Education & Legal Defense Fund, which also operates in the Eagle Forum's St. Louis office. She played a key role in writing some socially conservative language in the Republican National Convention's platform, most recently in 2004. As of 2007, she is still the president of both organizations. Since 1967, she has published her own political newsletter, the Phyllis Schlafly Report."

Armagettin' Outta Here Elephant: Self Fulfilled Prophecy Greatest Threat to Humanity
There's strife in Iran.
What Nature doesn't do to us
Will be done by our Fellow Man."
Kingston Trio
The greatest threat to our nation today is the clash of the "Titan Religions" and their "end of the world" prophecies. Aggressively seeking political office in every country in the world, religious zealots from all sides are subliminally advancing their ultimate battle agendas, a "self fulfilled prophecy" of world war coming from radical Islam and fundamentalist Christians alike. We voters must stand firm, demand a clear separation of church and state during this election because of the real enemies at hand. It is our civic duty to neutralize the "lunatic fringe" chatter, return to reason and American brain power.
The Founding Fathers knew exactly what they were doing when they made sure that separation of church and state is clearly stated in our Constitution. Real patriots know that to achieve victory in the war against terror, we must resist extreme religiosity and return to religious tolerance.

Media Elephant: Check Out Pork Barrel Palin Report on Randi Rhodes Show
The question is... why no major media reports about Palin's Alaskan record i.e. hanging with the boys and lobbying for millions? Message to the Media: Don't let the phony, Republican "sexist" threats and attacks on journalists get you down. Most voters see right through it.
