Defenders of Wildlife is not an "extreme fringe group." I've been a member for over 7 years and am certainly not "extreme" or "fringe" merely because the plight of animals in today's world concerns me.
Palin's "fringe" activities, however, are well known to many and any who are part of any organization that is concerned about the senseless slaughter of animals. This is not "new" news.
Her other statements seem to convey that Alaskans agree with her position on this issue - they don't. The articles are out there to read if anyone is actually concerned with the truth. Safari Club members do not all "live in the State of Alaska" as Palin claims. But, they are close-by residents since they live in Palin's pocket - or vice versa - depending on how you look at it.
This woman continues to be a blight on the State of Alaska and the Country. I really wish she would take her dysfunctional, power-hungry husband and go home - where it appears her children need more of her attention.
