Will You Help Me Stop Sarah Palin's New Show?

The following is from an e-mail I received earlier today from my brother. I'm sharing this information in the hopes that at least one person here will also visit the site, so we can help to make a positive difference. Dear Friends, Discovery Communications has announced a new Alaska nature show starring ... (wait for it) ... Sarah Palin. Yes, the same Sarah Palin who escalated Alaska's war on wolves and offered a 150-dollar bounty for the severed front-forelegs of dead wolves. The same Sarah Palin who fought against increased protections for America's struggling polar bear populations. And the same Sarah Palin who fought against the increased protections for the dwindling Cook Inlet beluga whales. I'm troubled that Discovery Communications -- known for their stunning wildlife-focused productions -- would choose to embrace such a controversial and anti-wildlife person as Sarah Palin to represent Alaska and the wildlife that lives there. I just wrote to Discovery Communications urging them to dump Palin and I am hoping that you will too. It's easy. Just take action at: http://action.defenders.org/eyeonpalin I hope my link above is clickable, but if it's not, please type it in for yourself and visit their website and fill in the very short form. And help to share this info with others. Thanks! firefox333

I tell you what. I'll help you stop Sarah's show if you help me stop the Rachel Maddow show, "Countdown with Keith Olbermann," Obama's many TV appearances, Robert Gibbs' endless speeches, "Hardball" with Chris Matthews, and the Joy Behar show. How about it? Is it a deal?

the Joy Behar show is not bad, it speaks the truth.

lelin1123, Hey there. Like I mentioned to coolcoder, I try to avoid political shows as well as paid programs, at all costs. *chuckle*... But thanks for your comment about the Joy Behar show. Perhaps I'll give it a shot sometime, if I'm ever in the mood to view a political thingie and it even comes on for those of us who don't pay for TV shows. Thanks for your other comments... will reply shortly, however, I have PBS on my TV at the moment - (partly for background, but I also enjoy watching/listening to "some" of their cooking shows, even though I rarely really cook!! -*lol*- ) However, right now they have a Julia child show on, which I just can so not stand to have to hear!! *lol* So I must go change the channel or turn it off. Thanks again for your comments. Take Care, firefox333

I signed it and I hope this works. I'm also sending it my friends. I curse the day McCain brought this person into the limelight.

Hey there, lelin1123... Thanks ever so much for replying to my topic. Appreciate your time and the kind reply you posted. Please forgive me for not replying sooner. If memory serves me correctly, you even replied in the past to another post of mine, which I may or may not have replied to. Forgive me please, especially, if I didn't reply to your other comment. That's really cool that you sent this information along to your friends. Thanks for doing so! That was the only reason I posted this here on myLot. I just wanted to pass the word along in the hopes that it could and would help to a make a more positive than not kind of difference... and didn't know where else to do so. I also blame McCain for this other "creature". Take Care, firefox333

Seriously? How in the world will this affect you? Do you want a wolf walking down your street? Holy crap. Things like this are such a waste of time and breath.

Hello there, laglen... How are you tonight? Never saw your name around here before, but I know that this place called myLot is such a huge forum and that there are so many members from all over the world. So it's nice to "meet" you. Thanks for reading and replying to my post, but I'm really wondering why you even bothered to do so, because you see part of your response to this topic of mine was "Holy crap. Things like this are such a waste of time and breath." Well, anyway... I only started my discussion to help bring to the hypocritical situation of Sarah Palin who is so NOT an animal activist, being the spokesperson for a show on the Discovery Communications channel/network... and wanted to pass along some info to hopefully help stop and or discourage it, since I am a member here. What else can I say? As for as Do I want a wolf walking down my street?? Uh, well That WAS kind of one of the main points of this discussion. It was about the protection of natural wildlife. If you weren't interested, then why DID you bother to respond? Haven't you ever heard of Virginia Wolf? And who IS afraid of Virginia Wolf? *smile*... Take Care, firefox333

I signed up for it I hope that is what I needed to do. Unfortunately a lot of people don't really care about things that don't directly affect their life leaving the world kind of cold and ugly. I will do anything to help protect all of god's creatures.

Dear jambi462, Hi there. I like your name - the jambi part. *s* It almost kind of sounds like "jammies", but that's probably not what you meant to imply but it's still pretty cool. Hope you don't mind me saying/typing that, because I don't know you. First of al, I want to thank you for even seeing and reading my post and taking the time to reply yesterday. I really appreciate your efforts and input. Please forgive me for not responding sooner. When I posted my topic I wasn't trying to get pennies or points for doing so, but only wanted to share the info with others about the e-mail which I had received. I also "signed up" like you said you did - and got a confirmation e-mail from defenders, etc... So I hope that's what we both needed to do to hopefully make a positive difference for at least some of God's little creatures. I will also do anything to help all of God's little creatures, because I do SO love animals and am also an avid animal lover. How's about you? Are you an animal lover too? And do you have any pets or feed wild animals?? Take Care and Thanks for responding... Hope to see you around here... firefox333

...Hi there firefox, Where the hiddeho have you been?? "o) Thanks for the link, it worked. Great idea. The lady only wants money and more power to her. But what a monster she is. Not to pull you into a politucal issue, because some of the people here are very stringent with their positions. How have you been? Happy New Year to you and all that. Nice to see your post. Take good care.
