Palin supporters will come on this thread and try to discredit it’s merits by claiming I am a nut with PDS. Frankly, that is their first response to any Palin criticism.

While I appreciate a lot of what Palin is doing right now, yes, I am a Palin critic because I don’t think she is ready for the oval office. Sue me.

But people should read this and draw there own conclusions, is what I say reasonable?

Why all the uproar?

Tempest in a teapot. Let it go. Another day and it’s forgotten. Sheesh.

Ah, the ADN. Can always count on them to bash Sarah at every turn. IIRC, Sarah never asked for the legal defense fund to be set up. Further, she never drew so much as a nickel from it, and is refunding every bit of it to donors. So, what again is the problem?

Actually, the court said she was following the advice of her lawyers, which was reasonable. They didn’t fault her in this.

I correct myself here. Bob J’s commentary, then. Everything else in my previous post stands.

Bob J, this may be an objective assessment of Palin’s troubles, but it sure sounds alot like the hit jobs the media have been putting on her for the past 2 years.

She’s not a candidate so who the hell cares? If she runs then this MIGHT be an important topic. Just because people want her to run doesn’t mean she will. I’d like Reagan to rise from the dead but that’s not happening either.

Let me be the first to point out this obvious fact!

"Sarah never asked for the legal defense fund to be set up."

Right... "Further, she never drew so much as a nickel from it, and is refunding every bit of it to donors." Incorrect. She is only reimbursing up to the point of her resignation and has already set up a new LDF.

Palin supporters want us to believe she is ready for the oval office. I've researched her history and find these kind of missteps and bad decisions throughout her career. “In this case it wasn't five or ten years ago, these things happened in the last year or so.

If Palin can't handle and make good decisions in something as simple as a legal defense fund, how can we trust her to make the right decisions sittig in the oval office with her finger on the button?’


Name me one ... member of congress, President , cabinet , etc. that has not made miss judgments during their career.

Look at John McCain !! and the Keating 5 scandal, and that is just one of John's many missteps. He is still making bad judgments. MO

Too much is made of these areas of unreasonable laws. True they are on the ledgers ... it takes time and money to search all this stuff out and time is of the essence. MO

All you do is post anti-Palin stuff.

Do you work for Myth Romney?

I didn’t say she acted unethically, I said it was a boondoogle that could have easily been avoided.

After reading post after post by you slamming Sarah Palin, I think you might need a shrink to work on your obsession.

“she was cleared”

Huh? The LDF was judged a violation of States ethics laws.

Nuff said! Why sue someone who has just discredited their own rantings.

That’s what I was thinking, he’s absolutely nuts. I haven’t even seen PDS this bad on the left! And he’s obsessing over something that hasn’t and may never happen. Sheesh!

::::::::::::::

Yes, and another reason I will not listen to Bill O’Reilly of FOX any more. On balance, I don’t think she is ready for the White House, but look at what we have now and what this America-hating dictator is doing to America. What could be worse? A patriot that loves America and its greatness and freedoms and gives a hoot about the American public and its desires?

If anyone needs to be picked apart, it is Obama and his Marxist lawless ilk.
