Yesterday, at the URL http://eagleforumalaska.blogspot.com/2006/07/2006-gubernatorial-candidate.html, a "2006 Gubernatorial Candidate Questionnaire" appeared dated July 31, 2006, including responses by Sarah Palin and other Alaska gubernatorial candidates to questions apparently submitted by "Eagle Forum Alaska". This web page was removed either late last night (after 11 pm Pacific time) or some time today (before 1 pm Pacific time on September 2, 2008).
It included the following questions and answers, among others:
SP = Sarah Palin (R )
1. Complete the sentence by checking the applicable phrases (you can check more than one).
Abortion should be:
Banned throughout entire pregnancy.
Legal to save the life of the mother.
Legal in case of rape and incest.
Legal if the baby is handicapped.
Legal if the baby has a genetic defect.
Legal in the first trimester.
Legal in the second trimester.
Legal in the third trimester.
Other:__________________
SP: I am pro-life. With the exception of a doctor’s determination that the mother’s life would end if the pregnancy continued. I believe that no matter what mistakes we make as a society, we cannot condone ending an innocent’s life.
3. Will you support funding for abstinence-until-marriage education instead of for explicit sex-education programs, school-based clinics, and the distribution of contraceptives in schools?
SP: Yes, the explicit sex-ed programs will not find my support.
11. Are you offended by the phrase “Under God” in the Pledge of Allegiance? Why or why not?
SP: Not on your life. If it was good enough for the founding fathers, its [sic] good enough for me and I’ll fight in defense of our Pledge of Allegiance.
