Palin fends off (all) ethics charges brought since '08 (Palin Ping! - No.21 - June 8, 2009)
Washington Times ^ | June 8, 2009 | Amanda Carpenter

The accusations made news, but with another dismissal of an ethics charge last week against Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin, the former Republican vice-presidential nominee has quietly been cleared of every ethics complaint filed since the torrent of allegations began in 2008.

Mrs. Palin, who became a target of such complaints after being named Sen. John McCain's running mate, is 14-for-14 in fighting off the complaints. She's been cleared of 13 charges by the independent State Personnel Board and of another complaint by the Federal Election Commission (FEC).

They need to go on the offensive and show that this is nothing more than a Democrat effort to destroy her. A conspiracy that can be laid at the feet of the Alaskan Senate Democrats.

It doesn’t matter what Palin wins in State Personnel Board and FEC adjudications.

What matters is the ongong MSM reporting of “Palin” and “ethics” and “controversy” and “charges.”

I don't think it really matters, they aren't going to stop. The MSM viciously maligned and smeared Reagan yet he went on to win two historical elections.
I believe Gov Palin's most crucial foe is the Republican Party itself. Though I'm confident that after she sweeps primary after primary these wayward louts will fall in line, or at least begin to keep their petty little insecure opinions to themselves.

Conversely the anklebiting Democrats have given her side an powerful weapon to fire back at them. She can accurately frame her distractors as the petty, meanspirited, slanderous stalkers they are. These fake “ethic complaints” will be excellent material for her campaign ads!

“Quietly cleared” does not equate to “exonerated”.

If she were really innocent, a responsible media would report it to the masses. Ameriqa has no such media.

After all, 54% of Ameriqans don’t like her, as proven in your last celebrity vote.

Nope - they won’t - word on the street (or at least on C4P) was Celtic Dipwad was in cahoots with a liberal up in NY who was taking notes on any freebies Palin received, including flowers, snacks, shirts, presents that normal everyday people wanted to give her... because regular people know we need somebody just like her to clean up the mess in Washington - somebody not tied to special interests, lobbyists, and the old way of doing things. However, Celtic Douche and other liberals have been given their marching orders which is to file as many ethics complaints as possible in hopes that one sticks or come 2012 they see the amount charged against her and the media reports on those... this is a game and it’s sad that there are such sick people willing to destroy a perfectly genuine, caring individual. You would think that people would get the hint and realize that more politicians like her are needed to get us back on track (left and right)!

Maybe Celtic Dipwad (LOL) could be kept occupied and not bother herself with Gov Palin. How about we keep sending her cases of Maryland crabcakes between now and 2012?

Amanda Carpenter is a true journalist. Everyone should read her columns at The Washington Times

But what about Kitty Crudmuncher aka SPLATT!? Did she lose her relevance again? Is she on vacation? Shirley, she'd want to cover this story of psychotic dhimmwits getting their hairy bums to them ~ maybe she's getting hers shaved, waxed, or tattooed 1st.

Hoorah for our next POTUS!

Palin is the Anti-Obama.

She'll have plenty of time, now, to point out Obama's glaringly transparent inconsistencies.

AND, she won't have to eat crow when she criticizes Obama like Colin Powell now has to.

Powell is one of the many dead fish, going with the flow.
