I Can’t blame her for that.
I don’t think it’s a big deal (the “scandal”) but I support her silent statement that she won’t play ball with them unless they get their act sorted out.
I like her style. She might be tied with unholy fetters to McCain, but she can tell the RNC to take a hike. And McCain might be next!
Steele should resign. The RNC tried to hide the embarrassment and failed.
We gotta clean out the GOP before we clean out the gov’t in general.
My mail from the Repulsicans goes right to the shredder. When they indicate that they can even spell “conservative” I might think of giving them money again.
They can start with Steele - by kicking his butt so hard he lands in Kansas. And nope, that’s not racist...that’s applying standards.
But fallout from the GOP's risque business expense has continued to roil the party.
...roils State Media more like it!
Hold on, the NY Daily is taking liberties, i posted the politico story about her not wanting her name on the fundraiser because she didnt say that she was going to that down in NO.......this report claims that she refuse because of the scandal, now maybe she doesnt like whats going on with this sex scandal, but no one associated with her ever said that this was the reason why......
Aides to Sarah Palin have asked the Republican National Committee to remove her name from an invitation that suggests she might attend a series of committee fundraising events timed to coincide with next week's Southern Republican Leadership Conference in New Orleans.
Though Palin will speak on Friday at the SRLC, a gathering of top Republican officials and an early cattle call for potential 2012 presidential candidates, the former Alaska governor will not be participating in any RNC fundraising event, a Palin adviser told CNN.
Palin's staff has twice asked the RNC to remove her name from the invitation, the adviser said, adding that the request had nothing to do with the nightclub controversy currently making headlines.
The RNC has organized a four-day fundraising effort around the New Orleans conference titled "Pachyderms on the Pontchartrain," according to a donor invitation obtained by Politico on Wednesday.
Texas Gov. Rick Perry and former Sen. Rick Santorum have committed to appear at one of the RNC events, but the agenda also boasts several "invited speakers" - including Palin, former House Speaker Newt Gingrich and Mississippi Gov. Haley Barbour - who do not appear to have confirmed their attendance. Minnesota Gov. Tim Pawlenty is listed as an invited speaker, but Pawlenty said last week he is skipping the New Orleans conference.
The RNC did not immediately respond when asked if they will take Palin's name off the agenda.
Sarah had never accepted along with several others and simply asked to be taken off the invite list. ABC has reported this as a schism between Sarah and the RNC. I think the ABC reporter has an agenda.
I for one am very happy of her decision, who needs to be tied to scandals and corruption in BOTH parties. I hope she gets the nomination, wins and appoints some really good house cleaners that will really go after the all the slime balls that are on the committees. The left doesn’t understand why she appeals to the general public as much as she does. We don’t care if Russia can not be seen from her front door, or if her daughter carried her child, she fights corruption, really supports our armed forces, loves her country, momma and apple pie, and that’s all that matters. Gee, she doesn’t want to be with the RINO crowd? Duhhh!
Debauchery is clearly not Sarah’s bag. Read it and weep, RNC!
It appears that the RINOs have put themselves in bondage, who knew?
Anyone involved in this should have been fired. Is there anyone, anywhere who thought this was a good idea?
Ping please.
There is still such a thing as FReedom of association or assembly or sumthin’, isn’t there?
Enjoy your stay in NO, Sarah.
Get Michael STEELE out of the RNC Chairmanship right now! or the RNC is going to be the Pathetic Laughing Stock and Butt of Late Night Jokes and DNC ATTACKS!! Steele has demonstrated a complete lack of Managerial and Moral Skills and Ethics! We bounce from One “DISASTER!” to another “DISASTER!” almost on a Daily basis with Steele at the Helm of the RNC!
GOOD for her! I wouldn’t go either.
