I know of one Palin mistake. She ran against Alaskan corruption and revised their ethics laws trying to correct it. But she underestimated the lengths her enemies would take. Her law left accused officials responsible for the legal costs of defending themselves against charges, whether they were true, false or full on fraudulent. She certainly hadn’t anticipated being innocently driven to personal bankruptcy by her own law. I suspect she’s learned and won’t repeat that mistake.

You confuse equivocation with expedience. That the Dembiciles (predictably) misused and abused the Law in an attempt to destroy a modern day Saint is not an argument for simply not having laws.

Your argument would, put another way, claim that we should never have passed laws against "Rape" because they lead to "Tawanna Brawley"-type abuses.

Please. The suggestion is ridiculous, and likely beneath you. Sarah did the right thing making it easier for honorable people to hold their elected officials accountable. Should the Legislature now consider additional laws imposing serious deterrents from abusing this law frivolously? Perhaps.

But suggesting that Palin was in error by giving control of their elected officials back to the good people of Alaska is just sick. As are, so far, all of the attacks on Palin's accomplishments in office. None have withstood even minimal scrutiny... while Sarah still withstands the most massive microscopic socio-political colonoscopy in human history.

And yet shines like the sun.

Deal. With. It.
