Palin’s lawyers should have been a better job at judge shopping, due diligence...the corruption is not excused by the demoncrats and the commies, but still...should have seen it coming.

On October 11, 1995, Rakoff was nominated by President Bill Clinton[4] to fill a seat on the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York...

Good luck getting a fair hearing from this one!

I like the picture of Sarah Palin “grilling” reporters. I wonder what kind of BBQ sauce she uses, or does she use a dry rub?
