Alinsky Perfected Part II: Players in Palin complaints 1-9
Flopping Aces ^ | 07-05-09 | Mataharley

Read Alinsky Perfected Part I first!

~~~

THE COMPLAINTS

With Sarah's resignation, it's obviously going to be "series" time again... Palin may be stepping away from her gubernatorial duties, but it's readily apparent no vaccine exists for Palin Derangement. No conservative figure brings out the wrath, disdain, and downright ugly side of liberal progressives (and some GOPers) than the mere mention of the name, Sarah Palin. Downright funny to watch, it is. So I suspect I, and the other authors will be contributing often to a new FA category called the "Trials and Tribulations" of Sarah.

In this segment, I'll add some data to the first nine of the eighteen complaints that have lodged again Sarah. I'm breaking this down in several posts because there's lots of links, and there's just too much to put into one.

And oh... BTW, when we're done with the ethics complaints and Personnel Board, we can move on to some of the personal lawsuits the progressive assault machine is piling on Sarah as well.

No doubt, about the time I think I'm getting to the end of it all, a new complaint or lawsuit will hit the media.

You'll find there's some repetitive names in this cast of characters that are playing the frivolous ethics complaint game. And it's worthy to start having a look at who's doing what because... well... Alaskans are, unwittingly, bellying up to the bar to pay for all this. It's almost another slap in the face not to have a close look. In fact, Alaskans have paid a bundle for the media to provide us with a "how to abuse the system" guidebook.... and here it is. So read and learn how "winning" politics are waged... meaning keep slinging the mud and clogging up the legal and state systems until something sticks. And even if it doesn't, the public will think there's something *really* wrong...

Alinsky tactics, gang. Time to learn, and remember them for a new election.

~~~

There are 18 ethics complaints on record, per the ADN. As I mentioned, three of these were related to Troopergate, and all but one were brought by Alaskans. They are below, in chronological order.

1: July 28, 2008: The Alaskan legislature launches it's legislative witchhunt on Troopergate. This is the beginning of the now familiar circus as to whether or not Palin fired Public Safety Commissioner Walt Monegan because he refused to fire ex-brother in law, Alaskan Trooper Mike Wooten.

If you remember, this entailed dualing investigations... the Alaskan legislation investigation headed up by Dem Sen. Hollis French, and the Personnel Board's investigation (which is #4 in this chronology).

Not to beat an already dead horse, just refer to the Troopergate series to recap in depth.

It might be interesting to note that French is now broadly hinting he will be tossing his hat into the gubernatorial ring against Sarah's successor, Sean Parnell. Parnell, BTW, is calling Sarah "Alaska's greatest give to the US".

"I was very surprised at first," he said of Palin's decision to resign, which he said she told him Wednesday.

"But then as she began to explain why she was doing it, I began to see it was Sarah Palin, once again, moving to put Alaska's interest first," Parnell told CNN.

~~~

"She's accomplished more in these two and a half years than most governors accomplish in one or two terms," he said. "Our governor has been a great governor. She is going to be Alaska's and is Alaska's greatest gift to our country."

2: Aug. 6, 2008: One of the three complaints filed by Andree McLeod of Anchorage. Now here's one piece of work... Ms. McLeod. She was an employee of the Murkowski admin prior to Palin's admin. While she likes to tout herself as a Republican, she also happens to be the darling of the self-admitted progressives who race to her defense because... rather like the jihad movements... they share a common enemy - Sarah Palin.

The laws apparently are set up to allow folks to bring complaints. So my question is: Why Aren’t WE Doing It?!!! If we could bankrupt a few Dems, maybe they’d decide this isn’t a good game plan.

SARAH’S HIGHER CALLING:

Sarah Palin would do more for the nation, in my opinion – by taking over the RNC and kick Steele to the curb. She could get much more done for this nation as opposed to running for office - that could come later...

This would:

* Bring conservative principles back to the RNC (small government, get government out of our lives, lower taxes, 2nd amendment support, state's rights, small business support, lower taxes, strong defense, non-nonsense foreign policies). Conservatism works every time it is tried.

* She could be a credible spokesperson for energy, drilling, etc in light of sane environmental initiatives.

* She could, on a daily basis, take the wind out of Barry's sails on a host of his anti-American issues (bank take-overs, nationalization of large sectors of the economy, socialism, class warfare, generational theft, bigger government, job killing). Her media appeal would take away from the daily barrage of "new plans" put out ad nauseum by Barry, Rahm, Steffy, and 'Astro-Turf' Axelrod. She would be a countervailing force to the crap we get from the White Crib on a nearly hourly basis. If Republicans embraced the Twitter, Facebook, MySpace internet viral communications, it would be a direct hit against Barry's minions.

* She could - and this is the biggest reason she should take over the RNC - help with a 1994-esque take-over of both houses and start blocking the hopey-dopey-changey-strangey crap we have seen for the last 6 months.

I said the same thing, yesterday. There are more than a few Democrats who could be subjected to this game plan. We just need some lawyers to help out.

I saw on Glen Beck that a group of Republican lawyers has put together a data base on ACORN and the SEIU to facilitate any law suits that Republican wish to bring against these two organizations. That might be a good place to start.

Following the playbook Alkinsy's Rules for Radicals, number 12.

RULE 12: Pick the target, freeze it, personalize it, and polarize it." Cut off the support network and isolate the target from sympathy. Go after people and not institutions; people hurt faster than institutions. (This is cruel, but very effective. Direct, personalized criticism and ridicule works.)

That’s been my question for a long long time. Why are the dims the only ones who get to file lawsuits? I know that Soros funds most of this stuff, but why can’t we set up some kind of organization where we can pool funds and hire a good lawyer to harras the traitors?

You’re right we have to make any attacks personal and their are plenty of targets to go after in the Democrat Party, the problem is that we don’t have the media outlets to target them. A few legal suits could make a difference, though.

Not funny at all. Disgraceful, actually. Making fun of a Down Syndrome baby. Disgraceful. These people are the lowest of the low. Libs play dirty. They've got the stench of muck on them.

They have the ACLU, we have nothing, because there is no profit in it. However sooner or later the people have to recognize, that if we don't have an ACLU counter movement, their will be no profit anyway.

But it looks to me that the people filing complaints have no legal help. They just come up with a theory & some circumstantial evidence (if that) & file the necessary paperwork. Then the gov’t has to investigate & the person accused must respond. I’ve also wondered if it really was necessary for Palin to ‘lawyer up’ to do this. There should be a reasonable way to respond without having to get legal assistance.

I guess we should just go find out what is required to file ethics complaints for our respective states & then start going after the Dems. It seems FR would be a good place to coordinate such an effort. And it appears we have a few legal types around. Perhaps they could provide advice.

I've wondered what the laws were on these types of things. The dirty underhanded left get to ethic complaints but our side don't. Why? And if they do, where is the outcome noted.

Speaking of outcome, anyone heard on cold cash Jefferson lately?

THe ony thing not explained is the Ethics Law used by these cretins was pushed and celibrated by Palin herslef.

The complaints get investigated and then a recommendation is made as to whether the complaints go to trial. Palin has to defend against the complaint to avoid going to trial and she must use her own money, not state money.

I’m thinking that we should start making complaints about ethically challenged Democrats and demand that they be prosecuted like Trafficant was.
