K your point is excellent and relevant. How many times did has this happened forcing her to repel Putin from her airspace?

I'm sorry when did I vote for any of those presidents? Furthermore when did I even say this was relevant to the national discussion on whether or not she was qualified?
If any of the other campaigns tried to do what the McCain campaign tried to do and spin being within visual range of Russia as foreign policy experience and if any of those other campaigns tried to spin being CIC of the civillian national guard as foreign policy experience then you might have some ground to stand on.
Don't pin the stupid campaign tactic that everyone saw through on me. You're the idiot trying to defend it.
I'm pretty sure previous governors stick to what is actually relevant. I'm going to go out on a limb and I'm going to say that Clinton never sat there and said "I commanded the national guard!"
Hmmm...
Anal retentiveness is belong to you(except when it comes to Capital Gains Taxes, and then you just you're anal retentive):
Simple terminology...even the Russians use something similar to it:
Russian bombers fly over Alaska again
http://english.pravda.ru/russia/poli...sian_bombers-0
Two strategic bombers TU-95MS of the Russian Air Force performed a successful 20-hour patrol flight over the Arctic region,” said Colonel Alexey Drobyshevsky, Assistant to the Commander-in-Chief of the Russian Air Force.
Russian bombers fly over Alaska again
“The flight was performed with in-flight refueling near Tiksi. Near Alaska during the air patrol long-haul planes were accompanied by NATO fighters,” Drobyshevsky said.
According to the official, all the flights of the Russian Air Force are carried out in accordance with rules of using air space over neutral waters. “The borders of other states were not violated,” Drobyshevsky said.
He stated that pilots of strategic bombers perform regular flights from air bases to patrol the neutral waters of the Arctic, the Atlantic, the Black Sea and the Pacific Ocean. Flight crews became more accomplished during their flights in northern latitudes, over areas without reference points and so on. During such flights they practice different techniques, such as the crew flight skills and in-flight refueling, Interfax said.
It is considered to be consummate when two 200-ton machines join together through the flexible fuelling system with cone-hose fittings 20 meters away from one another at a speed of 600 kilometers per hour, especially if accompanied by NATO fighters. Refueling enables the strategic missile carriers TU-160 and TU-95 MS to carry out their tasks within a day or more.
On August 17 2007 Russian President Vladimir Putin ordered Russia’s strategic bombers to resume their patrol flights. Since 1992 Russia single-handedly ceased the flights of its strategic aircraft to far-away hot spots. “Unfortunately, not all countries followed our example,” Putin said. According to him, it set off certain problems for Russia’s security and that’s why he decided to restart the flights of Russia’s strategic aircraft on a regular basis.

You're a fucking moron. They didn't violate US airspace. The headline is incorrect based on the information in the article.

From the Alaska Department of Military and Veterans Affairs Strategic Plan 2008-2012

Maj. Gen. Craig E. Campbell, who serves in the dual roles of Commissioner of Alaska's Department of Military and Veterans Affairs and Adjutant General of Alaska's National Guard:
Our vision statement, “Securing the State, Defending the Nation” is a vision of keeping Alaska and the United States a safe place to live. It sets the tone for how we conduct our day-to-day affairs, falls in line with Governor Palin’s priorities, and recognizes the unique missions and contributions of each of the DMVA's components.

:lmao
What part of simple terminology don't you guys get?
Furthermore do you actually believe the Russians have never flown over Alaskan Air Space?
:lmao
I'm sorry I set the bar too high. Find what you want, or dont, it doesn't matter. I'm done reading this drivel for now.
Why is it such a big deal for me to use Pravda...I posted an article from Salon the other day.
I read all sides.
There is something analist about the origins of most of your claims.
(mental image of whottt pulling something out of his ass)
:lmao
I'm gonna wear out that smiley...
Your claim that the governor has any jurisdiction over the military in case of an invasion would not be bolstered by any such overflight.
You would have to then prove that the Alaskan governor at the time gave some kind of military orders to the national guard.
