I think Sarah Palin is just cashing in on her 15 minutes, ya know?
She does have political power but it has been built on a very shaky foundation – anything could topple it.
I don't feel like Sarah Palin will be a party threat in 2012. She's been given a platform to make lot's of money and that is what she's doing.
@Nancy in Oregon,
Well, they are not very good problem solvers if they need to solve it by negotiating. (Much like real-life situations you mentioned.) Too bad as I think we expect much more from them.
I think Palin's 'reality' is not actual reality. She planned all of that just to make people believe that is what she does all the time and you know that since she is able to pick what is shown and what is not shown that she made sure that they showed only what she wants the public to see and not what really happens in her life. She wants everyone to think her life is perfect
Who publishes these "ratings". What size is the test population?
Republicans are strategic. Everyone knows Sarah Palin is a fluffer! Think about it.
Celebrity is SP's big goal. And she has got it, of course.
Well, she seems right at home with wilds!
I want to know why Palin thinks people can only be free in Alaska?
One thing you can say about Sarah, she knows how to laugh at herself. A reality show to define her image – TLC will probably catch alot of embarassing things she'll have a hard time living down during a campaign. She is a celebrity not a candidate in my mind.
I've always wanted to visit Alaska...it looks so beautiful! What is the reason for Sarah Palin's show? More exposure? Money? Probably both but I really wonder what her motive is behind this?
Looking forward to the day Ms Palin's ghostwriter for her book, speeches, Facebook, Twitter and notes on her hand is exposed. I don't believe for a minute she can put half these words together on her own dime. Just listen how different her speech pattern is when she's saying something impromptu or answering a question from a reporter without something scripted in front of her.
I really fail to understand the press' fascination with Palin. She won't be the candidate in 2012.
well learning a bit more about the beauty of alaska might have been nice but i really do not care about palin herself or her the details of her family so i probably will not be watching it
So, now TLC is getting into Politics? That show should have been titled "Sarah Palin IN Alaska" – it is more about her and her family than about Alaska.
Alaska has a lot of resources. It is a very unique area.
It's s ridiculous to focus on Happy Meals....there must be a better way to introduce apples to kids than 'banning' Happy Meals.
Glad that the person who hacked into Palin's e-mail has gotten a year in jail.
Bloggers,
I agree all of you, Dolphins are so smart and they are best mammals in the world, I will visit see doplhins someday.
Dolphins always make me smile 🙂
I think they are primarily sent there to problem-solve for us, Emily...but too often fail to do so. Instead of focusing on the problems, they focus on so many other things.
There must be no problems in San Fran if the city council has time to worry about Happy Meals.
@Randi-Kaye
Thank you for the info, but expecially the smile on my face, your face and the dolphins.
Do love your show and watch it above everything else... keep up the great topics . neilamaemoore
Oh, my! I pray she'll be okay. I had the same scare this summer and was admitted to the hospital. Thankfully, no clots were found.
Did I see that the Palin show is going to be airing on "The Learning Channel"? There's an Oxymoron...lol
Dolphin story so cure. Wow What a vase!
May be one of them can sell one and pay the money towards our big deficit!
Yay!!!! Happy meal already veto!!!! no longer ban!
how about that vase? Well, they say your happiness lies right under your eyes, back in your own back yard!
Mike formerly from Syracuse - "More" in dollar termss does not mean more in percentage terms. In percentage, they paid LESS. Poor people have a much bigger share of their income going to taxes and far less disposable income as share of income for mere living.
68 million for that vase!
Who made that?
I've always felt like animals have different variations of intellegence. I wonder what these dolphons are thinking of us humans?
Hey Anderson. Thank you for staying on Amazon this week with your reporting. I just wanted to vomit when you reported this. You have a CNN Hero that is fighting to protect these childeren. Maybe Amazon will donate their proceeds to her cause. For me, there are no second chances with Amazon. I'm done.
@Nancy in Oregon,
Sometimes it seems like adults are worse than children when it comes to matters of compromise & negotiation. Children are often better able to get along. (sad) I think that it's really bad when "elected officials" refuse to do so. After all, that's a major reason as to why they were sent there.
I just love dolphins! As a florida resident we see them all the time and they are just so wonderful and smart. Maybe we should ask them about what to do with the Bush tax cuts.
They look like they think they're pretty good lookin. LOL
Animals are incredibly smart. It amazes me that some humans think that they are not intelligent when animals are smarter than they think. I actually think animals are smarter than alot of humans!
I, for one, have never considered animals unintelligent. In fact, I have always felt quite the opposite. After all, God created them first before humans, but when He did create us, He chose to have us rule over them.
They do look like they recognize themselves. How cute!
I wish we humans could use animals as teachers more....and use one another, worldwide, as teachers too.
Sounds like me when stuck in traffic.
The Baltimore Aquarium is an amazing place to visit. Love the zoos and aquariums in our country.
I love dolphins....... they are so smart! they are playful show, Awwwww, I love Randi throw a ball to Nani!!!! Cool!
Dolphins always make me smile:)
animals are most definitely a lot smarter than people give them credit for – when i was quite young i taught our little puppy hand signals – so if a 7 year old girl and a 1 year old dog can do this quite easily ... sounds like that was a lot of fun
Alaska is a beautiful place, but Sarah Palin seems overexposed at this point.
Dolphins always look like they are smiling
Randi Kaye is awesome! 360 has the BEST stories. ( sorry about the caps :))
How smart are the?!
