    What, exactly, do you mean by "inexperience"? Barack Obama has four years of experience in the US Senate, seven years' experience in State Senate, and spent twelve years teaching Constitutional Law (he graduated from Harvard). Sounds like some pretty good qualifications and experience to me.

    As for the "ridiculous ass" - I can assure you, the Donkey has been the mascot of the Republican Party for many years, and has accompanied the election of some brilliant US presidents.

    It in no way precludes Obama from that distinction.

    The Aleuts would get upset if they are not Inuits though wouldn'y they?
    (I'm interested in why you think the Inuit haven't been treated very well by the whites - what has the "white man" done wrong? Although this is probably one for another thread)
    In the countryside they don't have any plumbing. So no running water or toilets. No running hot water or anywhere to wash clothes. Heating and cooking is by some sort of bottled gas. They live in tiny shacks.

    Don't forget Alaska has sub zero temperatures.

    They do have saunas though that they build for the village themselves.

    The village school has plumbing, but the teachers are white.

    Anyway the government decided that all Eskimos were entitled to free internet access.

    They were given a one off cheque to buy the equipment, so they have state of art electronics in their little flimsy tin shacks.

    It looks like that "Disney movie trailer" may have been inspired by this interview with Matt Damon. Very insightful Matt.

    Oh, come on. She can walk to the end of the jetty at the bottom of her garden and spit and reach Russia. That must count for something.

    Yeah, spitting on other countries does kind of sum up Republican foreign policy...

    From what I've heard about Sarah Palin, 4500 miles is a bare minimum safe distance when she starts spitting...

    The thing is that Wasilla is a really really ugly town - the only worthwhile reason to go there is just beyond it are some massive fireworks shops (fireworks and firework shops are banned in Anchorage). The only thing I can remember from driving through was a really ugly collection of strip malls alongside the main road; absolutely nothing else there to entice you to stop the car.

    So true - I was on a trip down the Aleutian Islands a couple of years ago, and apparently there was wireless internet freely available in some of the really remote fishing villages.

    (I can highly recommend the ferry ride down the Aleutian Islands - only goes about six times a year, but has to be one of the most remote and scenic ferry rides in the world)

    Would love to get him on the dancefloor. Definately got rhythmn.

    Read in paper that Al Queade want McCain to win, so thay can keep on killing off the soldiers.

    Another thing is that there is going to be a worldwide vote on the internet. So we will be able to vote too. Not that it will affect the American election though.

    Anyone know what day it will be?
