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.”

How is it possible that on DU they have the exact OPPOSITE headline? I am flabbergasted. And that takes a lot. Totally stinkin’ unbelievable.

“An investigation has concluded that Gov. Sarah Palin abused her power, according to a report just now unanimously released by the legislative council.”

Don’t need to, it’s nigh on impossible for me to take offense at anything.

I wish she would follow the advice posted by another Freeper:

“When I meet a scumbag, I try to get him fired. When Obama meets a scumbag, he joins him in handing out money to radical groups.

Which do YOU prefer?”

I hate "spokespersons". They're like lawyers.

Hey! That was uncalled for. Some of us are witty and entertaining.

“A bubbleheaded bleach blonde who can tell you about the economic crash with a gleam in her eye. (Apologies to Don Henley.)”

WOW! So much for the tolerant party that traditionally supports feminist advancement! Just more Lefty personality destruction. Right out of Engels. I'll be this guy shews with his mouth open and smells like Obama! And, a Don Henley scholar to boot! Just another example of modern public school education.

Morris also said “we have a party that can't win with a candidate that could win and we have another party that can't lose with a candidate that can't win”.

“I don't want to spend the next 4-8 years here at Free Republic discussing President Obama and his Cronies!”

Don't worry friend, if he wins they will track you down and shut you up LONG before his first term ends. These are very dangerous people.
