Why do people keep on advertising that Palin hunts and fishes as if it is a good thing?

Question

...just wondering

Answer 1

Real people eat animals. It's just a fact of life.

A vast majority of hunters, the real ones, don't hunt for "fun," they hunt for food.

Answer 2

Because not everyone is vegetarian.

Answer 3

Umm...Do you think it's a BAD thing?

Answer 4

Many Republican-base voters like to hunt and fish.  It's a way to attract those who are uncertain about McCain.

Answer 5

It plays to certain parts of the country. The Palin pick was stirckly McCain trying to win certain votes from certain people! McCain is desparate and has put Election before Country!

Obama / Biden 2008!

Ebony & Ivory Presidency!

Answer 6

Compare this to the 'cookie cutter' politicians in Washington who have no idea what the real world is like.  

Answer 7

Lmao! I agree!

  I don't know why!

Answer 8

To show that she can shoot a lawyer like Cheney did.

Answer 9

The reason why you are here is because your ancestors hunted and fished so they would not die.  Hence, you are here.  Just because some of us hunt and fish does not give you the right to attack us.  

By the way, some people here in Alaska use hunting and fishing to feed their families and the community.  Would you deny us the means of feeding our families?  What an honorably person you would be then.

Answer 10

Because she is outside of the typical" and take that lightly please... woman.

I am avid in sports, I hike and run.  I will not hunt, however I do not feel every woman should be the betty crocker, gossipy mom that many are.  

Thumbs down only if the shoe fit.

Answer 11

If no one hunted or fished there would be such a population explosion of animals that what is left of their natural habitat (what we haven't destroyed to turn into housing developments) would not be able to support their numbers. The animals would then start to starve. With starvation comes sicknesses, such as mange where an animal will loose all its hair and die, or rabies, another horrible, very contagious disease. They would then start to wander into communities where vehicle/animal accident numbers would become astronomical, and children and pets would become endangered from the wild rabid starving animals marauding through neighborhoods. SO, thank you to hunters, fishermen/women, trappers, and the like, for keeping animal populations healthy, my children and pets safe, and aiding in the conservation and preservation of nature.
