Federal Election Commission Files Motion to Dismiss for Lack of Proper Jurisdiction Because of its status as a government entity, the Federal Election Commission was given until today to file an answer to the original complaint filed by attorney Philip Berg on August 21, 2008. This afternoon, the FEC met that deadline when it filed a motion to dismiss for lack of subject matter jurisdiction, answering Berg's complaint by arguing that he "lacks standing to raise the issue of a candidate's constitutional eligibility."

Why angry feminists can't stand Palin With winds of change rivaling Hurricane Ike, John McCain's historic VP pick of Alaska Governor Sarah Palin has blown away the left's mask of "inclusive tolerance," exposing an ugly and desperate countenance below. Flummoxed and frantic, their shameful attacks on Palin and her family have revealed that liberal Democrats, the mainstream media, and those malicious hacks in the "progressive" blogosphere are willing to navigate the deepest, darkest sludge of slash-and-burn politics to see their man, Barack Obama, elected president. But Palin may have gotten the last laugh Thursday night by delivering a sound victory...

Sarah Palin Battles Energy Cartels / By Jerry Zeifman Sep 9, 2008 After retiring as the Democratic Chief Counsel to the House Judiciary Committee and its Subcommittee on Monopolies, I was retained from 1975 until 1980 by both Republican Governor Hammond and the legislature of Alaska as a non-partisan consultant on the taxation and regulation of multi-national oil companies.

She is also the first elected...

An Apostle of Alaska We know the outlines—the moose-hunting mom who juggles BlackBerrys and kids. But what does she believe? The real Sarah Palin. John McCain was not her dream pick. Only a year ago, when the Republican primaries were just beginning, Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin told NEWSWEEK that she wasn't enthusiastic about anyone in the GOP field. McCain was languishing at 7 percent in the polls. Mike Huckabee was reduced to playing his electric bass to get attention. Palin, driving with a NEWSWEEK reporter along the highway from Anchorage to Wasilla, said she could understand why the country...

Daniel Congiolosi is sure it won't be long before energy is so expensive he won't be able to pay the bills. When that happens, he will be ready. This spring, he tripled the size of his garden. He's rushing to install a hand pump on the well, build a concrete-lined root cellar and get an ice house ready before next summer. Thanks to soaring oil prices, he'll be able to pay for it all. Americans have been hit hard by months of $120- and $130-a-barrel oil, but in Alaska, they've hit the jackpot. Congiolosi this month expects a check from...

Palin candidacy brings out hypocrisy MIKE MCHUGH September 4, 2008 - 6:50PM The Republican presidential candidate, Sen. John McCain is called many things: an American patriot, statesman and a maverick. While his credentials on the first two points are unequivocal, he may have raised the definition of maverick to a whole new level with his boldest move to date - selecting Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin as his running mate. The move has energized the Republican base and has sent the left wing of the Democratic Party and most of the mainstream media into a tizzy. The mantra being spewed by...

"I think it's exciting to see a woman chosen to be on a major ticket," Bening said. "But the idea that people, who voted for Hillary, who tend...
