Meanwhile, they yawn at Climategate stories.

At least he wasn’t nagging us to eat veggies and lose weight.

[CondoleezzaProtege]

*yawn* oh they try so hard.

[dead]

Two for the price of one, wasn’t that the Clinton phrase?

[Jim Robinson]

When the people fear the government, we have tyranny.

When the government fears the people, we have freedom!

Sarah scares the crap out of the government and their media sycophants.

GO SARAH!!

Rebellion is brewing!!

People are surprisingly open about how much of a role Michelle Obama plays in her husband’s decision-making process, but that’s beside the point.

I am a huge Todd Palin fan. I want that WHOLE FAMILY in the White House.

[Anitius Severinus Boethius]

Sounds like any spouse of a chief executive.

[Venturer]

These people look for everything and anything to knock Sarah.

They need to get a life.

[Maelstorm]

They have neautered themselves with their own knives. Now they are grasping for potency.

[SnakeDoctor]

The Palin’s are a Christian family ... one would expect a Christian husband to be involved in decisions. If he weren’t her most trusted advisor, why would she have married him?

But, even separate from that, it is stupid to assume that ANY political spouse is uninvolved in their spouse’s political decisionmaking. As always, career decisions have an effect on the family — particularly when the family is in public view, and such decisions can thrust the family into the limelight, or affect further career prospects. Difficult political decisions are, therefore, likely worth discussing with a spouse.

received background checks on a corporate CEO, added his approval or disapproval to state board appointments....

Sorry Palinites...this is bulls**t of the highet order and way out of line.

OK. So let's assume Todd Palin actually did do nothing as First Dude except ride a snow mobile and catch some fish.

Does that mean MSNBC would now be reporting about what a responsible governor Sarah Palin was for not allowing her husband any input into the political process?

[Deb]

Yeah, MSNBC and NBC News sure is liftin' the lid on Dudegate!

Great job, guys! What's next:

"Trip's Poopy Diaper EXPOSED!!!!"
(only on NBC)

[MARTIAL MONK]

May have some Vice Presidential potential here.

Palin/Palin 2012?

[Cicero]

It’s noticeable that the press rarely or never mentions that the First Dude is an Inuit. You can be sure it would be all over the media if this were a Democrat with a designated minority spouse.

Forget the affirmative action ploy, however. That’s a game that Democrats play.

Todd is a native Alaskan who knows the state, has worked all his life in very Alaskan type jobs, has built an Alaskan business, has an extended family that knows the state, has a wise grandmother. He knows what Alaska needs and what Alaskans want, and he played a large part in educating Sarah about that when they first met. Of course, Sarah grew up there and is no dummy herself. But there’s no question that the First Dude made a real contribution.

[trumandogz]

That is exactly what the spouses of chief executives do and we see it with every administration in the White House.

But is in interesting that no one cares that Michele has influence on the current president and no one really cared that Larua played a role in the Bush administration or how Hillary played a role in the Clinton administration or that Nancy played a role in the Reagan administration.

[Virginia Ridgerunner]

More Alaska anklebiter-initiated nonsense...

[FrankR]

I can't believe these clowns at MSNBC actually get paid for sitting around and pounding out this crap...

I write my wife emails from work all the time, like millions of other people and their spouses do.

I'll bet ol' Crissy Matthews has written a few to barry, with SWAK at the bottom.
