i’m disgusted and really angry at the rumors the kos kids (and showing up on a few other sites) are trying to spread. i may have to break my “no cracking heads on the sidewalk this election cycle” vow. just sayin’. and stuff like this article only raises my blood pressure a little more.
I’m looking forward to posting the knocks and scandal concotion against Gov. Palin in Alaska (by the establishment, power n’ money club Repubs) and their astounding similarity to their whinings in Arkansas assailing Gov. Huckabee during the primaries. Hope to get to it in the next few short days. It’s a jaw-dropper.
And the nutjobs on the Left are starting hideous, disgusting rumors about her, her last child, her husband, her teenaged daughter. I simply cannot repeat what they are trying to get started.
THe worse they get the better we look. I love the smell of LibTard panic.
That whole “investigation” sounds like a crock, politically motivated (as much from some R. legislators who are part of the corrupt old-boy network she is taking on).
First, I haven’t seen a shred of a hint that she did anything wrong, crossed any lines, etc.
2nd, from what has been alleged about the ex-BIL he does sound like a real loose cannon to have on the force of the State Police. Does anyone here want to be “protected” by a trooper who makes death threats (against Sarah Palin’s father), breaks various laws and regulations, etc.?
3rd, there is the aspect of potential child abuse with the tasering of his 11 yr. old son????
The ‘Rats are really digging here, in desperation......
Trying out my new tagline:
The Barracuda and the Maverick will THRASH the Obamessiah and the Mouth!!
I would like to see an ad where they play Biden making his "Indian" joke then fade to Bobby Jindal saying "I don't approve of these comments."
Conservatives watch Fox News. Liberals watch CNN. Who watches MSNBC?
Can we say ‘backfire?’ Rats are in big trouble if this is the best they can do.
Sarah Palin is a pleasant surprise for those of us who had hoped that Senator McCain would pick a principled and authentic conservative pro-life leader.
Sarah Palin is both principled and authentic. As a Governor, she also brings an important balance of understanding of the critical domestic issues that is needed and that the Democrats have ignored with their ticket.
Governor Palin is smart, authentic, tough, and a dynamic choice that will remind women that they may not be welcome on the Democrats ticket, but they have a place with Republicans.
Wait a minutes....
Does it look like Obama is talking to the ear piece, not the mouthpiece?
PLEASE don’t compare test patterns with MSNBC..:)
Wasn’t the child and spouse supposedly to be protected under the law for spousal abuse that Bin Liden championed?
So what would be the point?
Setting up 2012?
Evil never takes a holiday.
The sister and child should have been protected by the useless law the Biden so proudly proclaims and championed. Hope that comes up in the debates.
Palin’s sister called her up because her husband, guy named Wooten, came home and was threatening her, the children and to kill their (Sarah and Molly (the sister’s) father.
Wooten is a state trooper. Sara tried to calm her sister down but she could hear her brother-in-law screaming and threatening over the phone. Finally Sarah gave her son the phone to keep listening in and drove over to her sister’s. Because of the configuration of the windows, Sarah could see inside her sister’s house. She could see her BIL standing in front of her sister screaming and raising his hands. Sarah got a neighbor near her sister to come look.
This all happened two months BEFORE Sarah even ran for Governor, now over two years ago. Records and transcripts of what happened are all online and very readable if the writers aren’t in the tank determined to lie all over the place about this. I spent an hour or so going over it all because I KNEW, I just KNEW this would happen.
The officer taking Palin’s report asked why she didn’t call the police. Sarah Palin said she didn’t want to get her BIL in trouble, that his job might have been on the line. Remember, Sarah just wanted her sister to be safe; she didn’t want to take any action so severe UNLESS she felt her sister was in danger, which she did not.
Over two years later, get this, Sarah fired some bureaucratic nobody who was doing a lousy job. This bureaucratic nobody, name Monegin or something, looked to make up some kind of scandal out of nothing. Monegin was the head of Alaska’s Safety Something Something, might have been Bureau of Funny Walks. Whatever, he was oncit a cop. Sarah fired him because, well he wasn’t doing the job she wanted him to do, imagine this concept if you will. She offered him another job, similar talent, same salary I assume, something with booze. Monegin turned it down.
With some nudging by that state’s corrupt Republican party (TWO fellows name Stevens under scrutiny by the Feds, one fine fellow named Ted now indicted I might remind) Monegin said that he was fired because Palin was pressuring him to fire this former BIL Wooten, which Monegin COULD do. But he is such a fine, fine honest fellow, he had to quit rather than do the evil Governor’s bidding.
This is all a crock folks. If Sarah Palin wanted to fire her AWFUL brother-in-law the Alaskan State Trooper 1) why did she not just call that death threat in to her father when it happened? Remember, she didn’t because she didn’t want to GET THE GUY IN TROUBLE! Now over two years later as the state Governor she suddenly wants him fired. Or 2)Why couldn’t she have Wooten fired sooner as Governor....or so pressure Monegin to do so? All of a sudden she wants to fire her brother-in-law, right when she’s being nominated for VP?
Couple more things, stay with me, this guy Wooten is one bad, bad, very bad dude. He tazered his stepson with his police issued tazer gun, he got out his gun in a bar and demanded the bar owner throw out a patron who was with a lady he rather favored AND, with a powerful union, Wooten STILL got five days suspension but he should be fired. He’s nobody’s hero, read up on this when you can. And STILL Sarah Palin didn’t want to hurt her sister, her sister’s family and their livelihood and did not report his terrible behavior. Wooten’s record of despicable behavior was reported by others.
In the interest of fair and balanced, Monegin did name one person in Palin’s surround who called him and said that “the Governor and her husband are beside themselves that Wooten still has a job”. That person, head of the Bureau of Hot and Cold Water Taps, DID admit to making such a call to Monegin but did so with no prompting by the Palins. Plenty of other people in Palin’s surround were named as complicit by Monegin but they have ALL denied it and agreed to sign under oath.
Be prepared for this, folks, cause it’s easy enough to read it all and if I could easily get the whole story than for sure the drive-by’s can.
Sonny Bono did the same thing in Palm Springs where as this inspector kept costing him more money to re-do his restaurant and Sonny told him he was going to run for mayor and fire him. He did, won and fired the guy!
Funny how they can't afford to send anyone to the south side of Chicago and the pinko University of Chicago campus environs ( Saul Alinsky fertile fields for decades ) to bag up all the piled-up rat dung on the home boy, Hussein Obunkum and to bring it back to their editors.
