So, lemme guess, cuz a few assholes did something, all Leebruls are evil, right? Just like how all Conservatives are Tea Party having, bunker hiding, gun stroking, abortion doctor shooting wackaloons, right? Haven't gotten many posts in, but I'm already sensing this is the back and forth. How close am I?
Oh come on. She violated ethics laws while trying to defend herself from ethics violations. Comedy gold! I'm rather surprised the government doesn't cover the legal costs of a dismissed case though. After a high profile case like this we might see some changes to that.
It's too bad Sarah Palin didn't know anyone high enough up in the government, huh? If she had, she might have been able to do something.
Horseshit. A bunch of douchebags are pillorying her because a quirk in Alaska law allows them to. Some people who like her started a legal defense fund to help her with a HALF A MILLION DOLLARS IN LEGAL FEES and some pissant little lawyer says she's "violated ethics" because she didn't tell them to stop and because people SUPPORT HER!? Palin got in office because she went after corruption and cronyism in Alaska politics and now everyone is getting out the long knives for Payback Time. You want to talk ethics violations? Tell everyone you're going to close down Guantanamo Bay six months after taking office and then back out of it. Tell everyone you're not going to raise taxes and then tax the shit out of everything that moves. Appoint a bunch of crooks to high offices and use crises to advance your socialist agenda. Say you'll put any bill up for fair public comment. Then promptly ram 1,000 page bill after 1,000 page bill down everyone's throat, saying there is no time to actually read them--just pass them. THOSE are ethics violations.
I'm supposed to feel sorry for Palin because she doesn't know how to retain counsel and govern herself accordingly. Nope, not gonna happen. But if we want to invoke some intellectual honesty and abhor legal witchhunts I can get on board with that. 1990s anyone?
Presidents are held to higher standards because they have staggeringly more power that any governor or legislator.
Apparently you need to be reminded that the attorney general’s office reviews the complaints and then goes forward with a public accusation of wrongdoing only if they feel the complaint has merit. Looks like there's some merit to those ethics violations to me. Alaskan law says by doing this she's violated ethics. I don't recall if the article you posted mentioned it or not but she did personally give the go ahead on this legal donation fund. Could you be any more butthurt? The nigger dingycrat got elected and is going to be dictating policy for the next few years. Deal with it, or just continue crying like a little bitch like you have been.
Tina Fey's joke that Palin is "certainly not going back to Alaska" sounds strangely fitting for this moment. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FdDq...F9F944F4&index=11&playnext=2&playnext_from=PL
A better idea would be to stop doing shit that launches ethics complaints. I;m only aware of one ethics complaint against Palin (Troopergate) but I understand that there are many. It would have been wise for Alaskans to elect someone who was knowledgable of Alaska law in the first place. The topic of tis thread is due to an Alaska law, and not a federal one.
You're a fucking idiot Alphaman. Seriously. She's had multiple complaints lodged against her and all have been dismissed. It's been all over the fucking news. So apparently SHE ISN'T doing shit that launches ethics complaints because none of the complaints are successful. What is happening is people who don't like her are flinging shit at her over anything they can think of to hound her. It's all about the fear. Fear that she will run in 2012 and win in 2012. This has never happened to any previous candidate either for President or Vice-President where the opposing political party continues to go after the candidate. Every day that passes makes Obama look a little worse and everyone on his side is silently shitting bricks as 2010 comes up and 2012 being right around he corner. The man is not a shoe-in for re-election. He could find himself being like George Bush the first especially as Obama keeps fucking up foreign politics and the economy.
The fact that you're acting like a weasely douchebag notwithstanding, I'd be interested to hear the political affiliations of the attorney they hired to file the report, Mr. Thomas M. Daniel.
Or the AG wants payback as much as the rest of the Alaska establishment, seeing as how, what, 19 now?, ethics complaints have been dismissed (still costing Palin half a million dollars, which is rather more than her salary as governor), and not one has stuck.
Apparently there are/where 19 ethics complaints... I doubt all of them where just liberals attacking poor little Sarah...
No, definitely not. Probably most of them are Republicans whose corrupt bosses and/or cronies she went after as governor.
Eat a dick. That's not to say that none of them warranted investigation... and aren't we discussing a complaint that was found to violate Alaska law in this very thread? Although trooper-gate was dismissed, it certainly warranted investigation. Who's the idiot now? Please nominate Sarah Palin in 2012. Please.
Conservatives keep talking about how afraid liberals are of Palin, and how desperate we are for anything that can slow her down. Yet I haven't seen anything resembling fear or desperation from anyone on the left when it comes to Palin. Sure, we've tried to take her down, but isn't that politics as usual now? Yes, the attacks have been vicious, but how is that different than what was done to Bush or Clinton or Kerry or Gore? Certainly nobody was going around saying conservatives were smearing John Kerry's war record because they were afraid of him. One could easily say that all the crap slung at Obama, from "B. Hussein Obama" to the accusations of being a secret Muslim to the birth certificate crap to the outright racism is all motivated by the fear of him winning, and then by the fear of him winning again. Who are these people that are so afraid of Sarah Palin, and where have they said as much?
I'm a Conservative and McCain/Palin scared me as much as Obama/Biden. So much so that I wrote in Ron Paul.
People rarely admit they are afraid of anything or anyone. I do think that the anti Palin crazies are afraid of her though. They are afraid that if she is nominated to be president in 2012 that the Republicans "novelty nominee" will defeat the Democrats "novelty president". In 2008, American voters showed that there is some appeal in "being part of history". I'm damn sure that accounted for a couple of million of Obama's votes. With Palin in 2012, Americans would have the chance to make history again by electing the first woman president. And there are alot more women than blacks.
Keep in mind she's always had the option of using a state-appointed attorney to defend her, free of charge.
Well apparently you were too busy sucking cock in early September to be staying up with national politics. That or you were too clueless to realize that the tremendous hue and cry from Democrat higher-ups at the announcement of Palin as a running-mate was because they were fucking pissing themselves. That said, it is interesting that you are suggesting that a vice presidential candidate is fair game for smear jobs because you claim presidential candidates have been. I mean, Biden got his share of kicks, but who really went after John Edwards in the way Palin has been attacked? Who went after Lieberman? Can you even NAME Bob Dole's running mate without using Google? And who continued to go after John Edwards after he and Kerry lost? Who filed suit after suit after suit against Senator Lieberman. No, I think history shows it is liberals who are evil, vindictive fucks.
I'm afraid that Palin would bring our government to a whole new level of stupid. That would be quite an accomplishment.
