STATEMENT FROM MCCAIN-PALIN SPOKESWOMAN MEG STAPLETON

Friday, October 10, 2008

ARLINGTON, VA — McCain-Palin 2008 spokeswoman Meg Stapleton issued the following statement on today’s release of Stephen Branchflower’s report:

“Today’s report shows that the Governor acted within her proper and lawful authority in the reassignment of Walt Monegan. The report also illustrates what we’ve known all along: this was a partisan led inquiry run by Obama supporters and the Palins were completely justified in their concern regarding Trooper Wooten given his violent and rogue behavior. Lacking evidence to support the original Monegan allegation, the Legislative Council seriously overreached, making a tortured argument to find fault without basis in law or fact. The Governor is looking forward to cooperating with the Personnel Board and continuing her conversation with the American people regarding the important issues facing the country.”

Nobody can take Sarah away from us. She is too loved for something like this to trip her up.

Top story on Yahoo news: ‘Report: Palin ‘abused power’

Lib media in the tank for Obama? Ya think?

[basalt]

Ed Rollins and Gergen over at CNN were actually laughing about this stupid report.....Rollins quoted from the report something about “ Gov Palins actions regarding her INACTIONS to control Todd Palin...”...HUH???....lets see, its an abuse of power if its something you DONT do?....talk about tortured logic..yeesh

“But that shouldn’t stop us from finding and highlightinh some interesting facts about others revealed in the voluminous text. “

No, of course not.

But after thinking about it.... maybe she should get it out of the way, explain one last time, and then say she’ll have no further comment.

I don’t know. She’ll know how to handle it.

Sarah is here to stay.

On public record:
1. corrupt cop
2. driving a motor vehicle (ATV and/or snowmobile) while
intoxicated.
3. calls in sick or babysitting kids when hung over.
4. makes death threats (which became a security issue once
Sarah became governor).
5. subject to violent rages in private and professional
life.
6. exhibits poor judgment (tasing a child)
If you were governor in charge of public safety, would you retain this man?

Sure I’m done. I just wanted to see if I had any takers for a measly $5. There are none. Lots of big talk here, but no walk. Had a guy for $50, but I don’t think it was serious.

[tioga]

Bush has been burning us for years.....we aren’t going to notice the change in temperature......but I expect McCain won’t burn us till after he’s elected.

[ The good old boys had their little oil company pay-offs for the other pipeline blown out of the water. And they are mad. ]

Exactly.. She forced the Gas Pipeline resolution to happen.. The Oil COmpanys HATE that.. MUCH More natural gas will drive of gas DOWN... The same guys have been killing the pipeline for a long time..

[word_warrior_bob]

Are you taking bets that McCain will dump Palin? LOL, name your number. I’ll look into a second mortgage.

[CodeToad]

You’re betting $5 that McCain will lose? OK. I’ll take that bet. $5 says he’ll win. Maybe a nail biter, but he’ll win.

"It seems a good deal of people that were here since 98, are posting some seriously whacked-out stuff."

Continuously, since march 1998. Makes one wonder, huh?

[Danae]

LOL Laz.... He’s such a teddie bear, all warm n sunggly... I can’t figure out for the life of me why people are so freaked out by him.

MUAH :^*

Nobody can take Sarah away from us. She is too loved for something like this to trip her up.

Amen! Sarah is a gift from heaven.

[jveritas]

She absolutely did the right thing and most people will love her for doing so.

[silent_jonny]

I think she should give a press conference tomorrow... but do it at one her rallies with all the people there.

I like that. And MSM really won't have any choice but to show it.

[BigEdLB]

The piece of human garbage who brought this against Gov Sarah has shown that he is not worthy of holding political office, because if this is all he has to do with his time, he needs to lose in November

[Danae]

LMAO

[Cyber Liberty]

For the record, I totally agree with ever point you make. I just know that the press will focus on “Guilty” and McCain will react. That’s why I’ve been a bit snarky here tonight.
