Salon writers Max Blumenthal and David Neiwert pen a quietly chlling article on two of Alaska Governor Sarah Palin's friends Mark Chryson and Steve Stoll, the first is an Alaskan secessionist and Stoll is a John Birch Society member.
Blumenthal and Neiwert present both as Governor Palin's mentors. As far as I'm concerned, they're scary. Chryson wants to have Alaska out of the union -- that's the United States -- as does Stoll, who did not agree to be interviewed for the article. But in establishing the Alaska Independent Party, Chryson , who was its chair, and Stoll befriended extreme white supremacist group members.
It must be asked why John McCain would select as a running mate someone with such a set of unfortunate and really anti-American relationships?
