[Vision2020] Gov. Palin Foreign Policy Experience

[Jeff Harkins]

Obviously better training than you, and common sense just comes as 
part of our kit - but then you are European, huh!

My apologies to other Europeans.

Border states are one thing - complete separation is another.  Oh 
yeah, maybe this was supposed to be kept secret by the GOP.  Darn.

To my Canadian friends, the author of the original message does not 
represent the views of most Americans.  We have absolute respect for 
your sovereignty, for your peaceful demeanor and for the opportunity 
to trade with you.  We appreciate our shared common interests and 
look forward to maintaining that relationship.

On another point, I just hope that you and your secret cabal of dems 
keep harping on the insignificance of small town governance - please 
pound away!
