Sarah Palin will speak at an event in Calgary cosponsored by the Fraser Institute

Former Republican vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin--the darling of right-wing  climate-change deniers  and FOX News viewers--will speak at an event in Calgary on March 6.

The Vancouver-based Fraser Institute is one of 10 cosponsors helping to market her speaking engagement. The Straight received notification via an e-mail from the Alberta office of the right-wing think tank.

The evening with Palin will be hosted by Senator Pamela Wallin, a former CTV broadcaster named to the upper chamber by Prime Minister Stephen Harper. Harper represents the riding of  Calgary Southwest.

The Fraser Institute is a Vancouver-based organization, which was headed for many years by Michael Walker. Walker is a friend of former Republican vice president Dick Cheney.

Do I really have to say it Sarah Palin is all about the http://bit.ly/du6Uhc Sarah is a mobster, a new politician gangsta. She says thank you for what she takes from you and she smiles and winks at you too. Look she quit her post as governor, to become a millionaire -- McCain made her a millionaire! She sets up a PAC and what she does with it:

McCain's got the magic touch, even more than the president, just ask joe the plumber.

is sarah going to teach how to have a pac and use it as a piggy bank?
How many books can 63,000 buy and sell at $300.00 and place that profit in her Sarahpac. The 100,000 she gets to speak Saturday night in Nashville will never see anyone else pac but Sarahpac. DOJ please check into this..

So we've decided to use "socialist" as a pejorative here in Canada too now? Wow.

Everything's broken.

The root of the word socialist is the same as the word society. The opposite of that would be the anarchy of a pack of wild dogs.
