AP INVESTIGATION: Palin pipeline terms curbed bids (Barf alert...2 Palin hit pieces in one week!!!)
AP via Yahoo! News ^ | 10-25-06 | JUSTIN PRITCHARD and GARANCE BURKE

ANCHORAGE, Alaska – Gov. Sarah Palin's signature accomplishment — a contract to build a 1,715-mile pipeline to bring natural gas from Alaska to the Lower 48 — emerged from a flawed bidding process that narrowed the field to a company with ties to her administration, an Associated Press investigation shows.

These guys had the story of her taking her kids on business trips...a new article on Ted Stevens (R-AK) and now this non-bid nonsense.

The MSM has NO MENTION of ANY OBAMA SCANDAL...they are infinitely more important than the ridiculous garbage and the LEFTIST, MARXIST MEDIA WILL NOT INVESTIGATE AND EXCUSES ACORN, AYERS, ODINGA, WRIGHT, LEFTIST POLICIES, SOCIALIST AND COMMUNIST MENTORS...

The AP is dying. When the Kenyan Marxist loses, what will the tanked media do then when they cannot bash the Right?

Who cares?

The amusing thing...is that the AP would have taken six years to get around to this pipeline deal and actually investigate if they were on normal schedules. I’m guessing all of the AP reporters were doing double and triple time....trying to get the story out before the election. Some nifty bonuses...oh...I forgot this is AP...and they don’t do real bonuses.

Who told these two @$$holes to do any “investigations” and why aren’t they doing “investigations of their boy Obama? I’m really getting tired of these Obamedia Obamacorns.

At this point anyone who favors Palin will laugh this off. The attacks on her are by now meaningless. Those that don't like her no longer matter. When the returns are in O will be the political joke of all time. A 1/2 billion spent , the entire media machine behind him , a republican brand in the crapper , a near collapse of our economy and he still could not close the deal.

The MSM has NO MENTION of ANY OBAMA SCANDAL...

The DNC Media will not lift one finger to investigate or even report on Lord Øbama. They should at least report on the story of Lord Øbama refusing to show us his birth certificate. On a local talk show a gal was mentioning the fact that Berg was going up to SCOTUS, AND there are a number of law suits being filed state by state against the state election officials for not being able to certify the candidate is a natural born US Citizen. She had on a guest that was familiar with the law suit in Washington. Obama's birth stirs legal action in Washington

Maybe this story is about to hit the DNC Media.

You gotta love the way the AP now calls their opinion pieces "Investigation." They know most inexperienced readers equate "investigation" with "objective scientific research".

Typically, objective research doesn't include words like: ballyhoo, boast, sour, gusto, etc.

I did my own "investigation" and the results are in: The AP makes stuff up.

So let me get this straight, they needed a pipeline, and she just got elected because she was fighting the big evil oil companies and so she excluded them from bidding because it would have led to a monopoly by the big evil oil companies and so some people that she knew who worked back in the day at some oil company’s subsidiary now

blah blah blah blah blah

There is nothing there that suggests any impropriety other than the words AP INVESTIGATION PALIN.

Lame.

Be careful using “boy” in reference to a half-African, some diversity fiends could hammer you when the internet is monitored.

Desperation.

They’re throwing mud aimlessly, hoping something will stick.

Hey, AP Mediascum — this worthless hit-piece just shows yet again that you are in the tank for Obambi. When will you even pretend to vet the Obamessiah? You have less than 10 days left to offer even an illusion of “investigation” of the Obamanation, get busy!!!

It was how it was posted on Yahoo!

Anything anti-McCain is a top story.

Building a New Deal with 30 million illegals and 80% tax rates isn’t news...Trig Palin is.

The MSM wants nothing less than the total destruction of Sarah Palin, akin to the Romans plowing salt into the ruins of Carthage so nothing would ever grow there again.

What they’re going to get is another matter entirely. I will back Sarah 100% to Election Day and, win or lose, beyond that day. I’m betting there’s millions of conservatives out there who feel the same way.
