Gov. Palin Has Dirty Hands
Palin’s reformer image is taking a hit last month when she was accused of attempting to get a state trooper fired. That state trooper was her former brother-in-law who had gone through “a messy divorce” with her sister. After the trooper’s boss wouldn’t act on the governor’s request, she fired him. Though Palin says she doesn’t “have anything to hide”lie lie lie! Her claim“ I didn’t do anything wrong !,” An investigation has found that one of her aides pushed the firing:
Gov. Sarah Palin revealed an audio recording that shows an aide pressuring the Public Safety Department to fire a state trooper embroiled in a custody battle with her sister.
Palin, who has previously said her administration didn’t exert pressure to get rid of trooper Mike Wooten, also disclosed that members of her staff had made about two dozen contacts with public safety officials about the trooper.
Palin’s scandal envelops her in the constellation of scandal-plagued lawmakers currently serving in Alaska. Here’s a brief overview:
Sen. Ted Stevens: Last month, long-serving Alaska Sen. Ted Stevens was indicted by a federal grand jury “with seven counts of making false statements for failing to disclose” gifts of over $250,000 from the oil services company VECO Corp.
State Sen. Ben Stevens (R): The senator’s son, Stevens is being investigated by the FBI for his involvement in “an alleged payment scheme involving fisheries legislation brought by his father.” When VECO’s Bill Allen “pleaded guilty to bribery and conspiracy charges, he stated that almost a quarter of a million dollars in consulting fees paid to the younger Stevens was in fact bribery.”
Rep. Don Young (R): Last year, it was revealed that the senior House Republican was “under criminal investigation” involving “possible political favors for a company in Alaska.” In April, Young’s legal fees exceeded $1 million.
Last week, Palin placed her boards and commissions director, Frank Bailey, on paid leave while the investigation into the suspect firing In 2006, Sen. Ted Stevens endorsed Palin.

MRS. & MR. PALIN .....MOM & DAD.......???
ST. PAUL - A series of disclosures about Gov. Sarah Palin, Senator John McCain’s choice as running mate, called into question how thoroughly Mr. McCain had examined her background before putting her on the Republican presidential ticket. HE DIDN'T! Ms. Palin and her husband, Todd, issued a statement saying that their 17-year-old unmarried daughter, and who was not practice safe sex, Bristol, was five months pregnant and that she intended to marry the 18 year old father. Republican moral value American value BETTER THEN THE REST OF THE COUNTRY crap ! Among other less attention-grabbing news of the day: it was learned that Ms. Palin now has a private lawyer in a legislative ethics investigation in Alaska into whether she abused her power in dismissing the state’s public safety commissioner; that she was a member for two years in the 1990s of the Alaska Independence Party, which has at times sought a vote on whether the state should secede; and that Mr. Palin was arrested 22 years ago on a drunken-driving charge. It will also come out that Mr. Palin has father a child during the marriage. Bottom line this is a tokem female thar was not vetted. McCain way of think was JUST GET A FEMALE!. No white republican in America's history ever repected any one other then another white male for vice president. |

Sarah Palin had "steamy sex" with her husband' business partner. Sarah Palin harassed and stalked her ex brother-in-law and then she perjured herself and suborned perjury and then used her power to try and get him fired.
She did fire his boss for no other reason. Sarah Palin is the biggest Welfare Queen of all: $27 million in welfare earmarks for tiny Wasilla....a record in US History. Sarah Palin is Alask's Welfare Queen: $250 million in welfare earmarks for the Bridge to Nowhere that would serve 50 people...50. Sarah Palin took 6 years to complete 4 years of college...of course McCain sees him in her...he graduated 894th out of 899th. McCain is using Sarah Plain to insult women. After all he called Cindy a trollop and a c**t....he never changes. Yes, Sarah Palin took 6 years to complete 4 years of college and had "steamy sex" with her husband's business partner. Yes, McCain called his own wife a trollop and a c**t, had an adulterous affair with her while he was married to his first wife Carol whom he abandoned after she lost several inches and was disfigured in an accident. Carol says that McCain was 40 but wanted to be 25 so he abandoned her. |

Go McCain !!! we do have a choice- and he also wants change- He has reality on his side- Obama is saying he is going to do very unrealistic things-lower taxes yet give more services and help everyone-I wish this was true- BUT HOW is the question he has not answered!!! he talks like rev. Wright on a rant! |

Moses in the white house is SCARY!!!You sound just like an uneducated ignorant redneck, low life, trailer trash!! |

When I see Sarah Palin standing at a podium with her hot glasses, I get a rip-roaring, raging boner that just won't quit. |
|

Her speech sucked. The most idiotic thing for us Americans to do is continue this Bush saga. Republicans have to go.
Do you think McCain can actually make it through the first term if he's elected? Obama/Biden are the best pair to lead this country. |

I'm supprised you even have a computer..I also expect a terse reply...What can you come up with that's worth the effort to read? |
|
I appreciate your opinion. But, I have more respect for New Yorkers than I'd award to your evaluation of Sarah's speech..Can you share, in a more intellectual manner, your reasons for not appreciating her speech. If not, then I suppose the evaluation indicate an inability to provide quality insight into anything useful and we can ignore you and your comments. |

Boo-hoo......sucking up to the conservatives and Sarah Palin the bad mom, gun carrying animal killer, moose eating, cheating wife, with a teenage pregnant daughter and son abused drugs. Maybe you can help her on her mission of "praying away the gay" at her church. If you are such a hard worker as you say, what is wrong with your daughter growing up being self-reliant and a hard worker like yourself. But if you want her to grow up to be another Sarah Palin. Maybe you might need to save that $20 in your pocket for a trip back to your country if the conservatives get into office. They don't care anything about you or your race. If you are muslin...watch your back! |
