Wasn't it the Bear Paw parade? Those fools want her to run as a political pawn -VEEP, sheesh. I'd like to keep her here, please.
Wow, who knew it would cascade as far as it has? She has already turned the country on its ear for presumptive pundits and couched critics. So quick of criticize.
The rest of the country is sooo jealous.
I love how this shot has been co-opted into the bikini gun chick shot and Larry King showed it on air gasping, " is this real?"
But we know, don't we? It is this shot that was used on so many photoshopped hybrids.
Well done, my digital friend. Looks like all of her constituents have views this as well. (650,000 hits)

@mitya:

www.msnbc.msn.com/id/26458400/

KTUU reported that Wooten’s personnel file, which was released at his request, showed that Palin and her husband, Todd, filed an unspecified number of complaints against him during the custody case. Court documents included an e-mail that Sarah Palin sent as a private citizen to the director of the troopers division in August 2005, accusing Wooten of drinking in his patrol car, “illegal hunting techniques,” firing a Taser at his young stepson and threatening to kill her father.

Both Palins were interviewed by state troopers as part of an internal investigation, which dismissed many of the complaints. Wooten was, however, suspended for 10 days for shooting a moose and using the Taser on his stepson, a suspension that Monegan later reduced to five days.

The Tropper used a taser on his step son and still has a job because of Commissioner Walt Monegan! Is there anyone here who doesn't think the trooper should have been fired for that? And if Commissioner Walt Monegan allows this type of behavior from his troopers he should have been fired!

Sarah Palin supports independence for Alaska and was a member of the Alaskan Independence Party (motto Alaska First), which believes that the vote which led to the state joining the USA was corrupt and wants a re-run with the aim of total independence. When she manages to achieve this, will she become President of Alaska? And when subsequently the Russians march in to an independent Alask (as they have done in South Ossettia in an independent Georgia), will the USA or NATO do anything?

christian jackson says:

Watching her speech last night made me laugh and cringe. She calls for reaching across party lines and mocks liberals. She uses her son as a poster boy and while her daughter is hardly a poster girl for abstinence (the only type of birth control she accepts). She has over simplified and misrepresented the truth regarding the energy crisis, taxation issues and the war.

She's an angry person with little or no experience with corruption allegations pending...and to think people will buy her brand of BS is alarming. But I shouldn't be shocked I guess...I should be used to it by now.

pendergast4 says:

ChrisJackson:
1. "mocks liberals", and I've never heard Barak or Bidan diss a republican...please...
2. "abstinence", Her daughter is KEEPING the baby, not ABORTING it, so no form of birth control is NEEDED! Duh! Also, they are getting married.
3. "energy,taxes,war", This was her FIRST major speech, and the topic was accepting her nomination, not ANY of these other topics. Criticize her on lack of specifics when she's actually giving a speach on the that topic.
4. "angry", Dude...have you seen Hillary Clinton...like...EVER!?! Pallin's smile, which was ever-present, wasn't the forced smile you always see on Hillary.
5. "experience", So, being a Mayor and Gov. is not exeutive experience??? Check again and you'll notice she's got more executive experience than Barak, Biden, and even McCain.

Be reminded the Dems have had congress for the past 2 years and gas prices have doubled, the housing bust is due a dem program extending credit to those who are un-credit worthy.

Russia has invaded Georgia, could it be they sense the weakness of their fellow traveler, Obama?

The Iraq war is pretty much won, Anbar was handed off the Iraqi Army yesterday.

The murder rate in Chicago just the past summer was nearly twice the death toll of US troops in Iraq. Says a lot about those gun control laws your hero, community organizer supports.

No matter how 'bad' you think things are screwed up, Obama and his leftist minions would only make it much, much worse.

Maybe we should be questioning Obama's father's motives for not raising his own son and leaving the burden on his typical white grandmother. Did his father pay child support? Lets test Obama's kids and see who their real father is? How would that sit with you? Or maybe Obama should come clean about Donald Young and Larry Sinclair? I would love to hear that one. Maybe Obama should take a drug test.

So much for women's lib. Its great how the Democrats and the left have become their worst nightmare. Sexist anti women hypocrites LOL. Palin has awoken the sleeping giant. Women who are conservative and don't wish to hear the BS from the Gloria's and the Hillary's in the "so called" feminist movement. NOW has said "Palin might as well be a man". Pro Feminist Oprha has refused to have her on her show, clain=ming that she doesn't want to make her show a political forum (yeah we all know Obama was on her show) well some much for the left's support for the "Fairness Doctrine". If McCain and Palin lose the election the Democratic feminists will be responsible for setting back the Feminist movement 30 years.

"Democrats' Silence Is Deafening

Friday, September 19, 2008

By John Gibson

It looks to me like Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac — the twin $1 trillion disasters — were the creation of congressional Democrats and a Democrat White House.

So where are the Democrats? Why no news conferences explaining themselves?

Barney Frank — who who insisted Fannie and Freddie had to buy loans made to the unqualified — has had nothing substantial to say, though he did wisecrack yesterday in a Hi-Ho Silver voice: The "loan arranger" is on the way. He was referring to the administration riding in to save him.

Nancy Pelosi denied years of Democrat-sponsored easing of lending standards at Fannie and Freddie and simply said, no, not our fault.

Harry Reid over in the Senate promised Democrat action and immediately adjourned Congress to get out of town right away.

Bob Rubin, the Clinton economic genius who oversaw the launch of Fannie and Freddie drunken sailor's decade, stood with Obama today. He's the one who went from the White House to Citibank where he lost a billion dollars.

John McCain is now running an ad pointing to Obama's link to Franklin Raines, the Clinton official who ran Fannie Mae and took a payday north of $50 million. Raines was reported by The Washington Post to be an Obama adviser on housing issues. But as soon as McCain's ad appeared, Obama rushed to deny Raines was any sort of adviser.

In other words, adviser Raines went the way of Jeremiah Wright — downgraded to passing acquaintance.

McCain is also running an ad about Obama pal, Democrat Jim Johnson, a former Fannie Mae CEO who also got a pile of cash and headed Obama's VP search committee.

Austan Goolsbee, the Obama economic adviser, has been writing academic papers for years insisting that any regulation of Fannie and Freddie would deny minorities mortgages and the ability to buy a home.

Remember, it was John McCain who put his name on reform legislation three years ago that might have stopped the downward slide of Fannie and Freddie, but that reform was stopped in its tracks. By whom? By all the aforementioned Democrats.

As for Obama, he's No. 2 on the Fannie-Freddie political contribution list and he's decided he's not saying anything for a week.

The Democrats have some explaining to do

To some degree yes, however, the socialist policies of the democrats have finally collapsed like the Ponzi scheme they are. This has been coming for a long, long time. You can't depend on the liberal media to inform the public. You have to learn these things on your own.

Ain't the Internet grand? All folks had to do was listen the 'kooks' who have been screaming in numerous blogs about this for years. Not in the news media, oh no, they cover for the democrats at every turn. Got to save the world from the evil conservatives.

Worth repeating Remember, it was John McCain who put his name on reform legislation three years ago that might have stopped the downward slide of Fannie and Freddie, but that reform was stopped in its tracks. By whom? By all the aforementioned Democrats.

"...One of the giant mortgage companies at the heart of the credit crisis paid $15,000 a month from the end of 2005 through last month to a firm owned by Senator John McCain’s campaign manager, according to two people with direct knowledge of the arrangement...."

And your point is what? You shouldn't believe anything you read in the NYT. They have become the propaganda arm of the democrat party.

What you didn't read in that article is that man no longer has any financial ties to that firm and hasn't for a long time.

"...On Sunday, in an interview with CNBC and The New York Times, Mr. McCain responded to a question about Mr. Davis’s role in the advocacy group through 2005 by saying that his campaign manager “has had nothing to do with it since, and I’ll be glad to have his record examined by anybody who wants to look at it.”..."
--------------

Bill Clinton on Thursday told ABC's Chris Cuomo that Democrats for years have been "resisting any efforts by Republicans in the Congress or by me when I was President to put some standards and tighten up a little on Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac" , relevant section at 2:45).

blogs.abcnews.com/politicalradar/2008/09/bill -clinton-do....
-------------
ANGLE: And so shaky mortgages spread throughout the system. But in 2005, the Senate Banking Committee, then chaired by Republican Richard Shelby, tried to rein in the two organizations bypassing some strong new regulations.

WALLISON: Which would have prevented Fannie and Freddie from acquiring this bad -- these bad mortgages. It actually gave a new regulator for Fannie and Freddie the kinds of powers that a bank regulator had.

ANGLE: All the Republicans voted for it. All the Democrats, including the current chairman, Senator Chris Dodd, voted against it, and that was after Fed Chairman Alan Greenspan had issued a stark warning to senators that Fannie and Freddie were playing with fire. Greenspan said without stronger regulations, "We increase the possibility of insolvency and crisis. Without restrictions on the size of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, we put at risk our ability to preserve safe and sound financial markets in the United States."

ANGLE: Which turned out to be exactly right, but because Democrats blocked it, those new regulations never got consideration by the full Senate and died. So that's how we got into this mess, and how we missed a chance to avoid it. Getting out of it now, of course, will be a lot more difficult -- Brit.

HUME: Oh, boy. Thanks, Jim.

newsbusters.org/blogs/noel-sheppard/2008/09/2 5/fox-news-b...

Two days later, former President Clinton agreed:

CHRIS CUOMO, ABC NEWS: A little surprising for you to hear the Democrats saying, "This came out of nowhere, this is all about the Republicans. We had nothing to do with this." Nancy Pelosi saying it. She signed the '99 Gramm Bill. She knew what was going on with the SEC. They're all sophisticated people. Is that playing politics in this situation?

BILL CLINTON: Well, maybe everybody does that a little bit. I think the responsibility the Democrats have may rest more in resisting any efforts by Republicans in the Congress or by me when I was President to put some standards and tighten up a little on Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac.

You forgot to prepare for the riots when Obama loses.

"....If McCain wins, look for a full-fledged race and class war, fueled by a deflated and depressed country, soaring crime, homelessness - and hopelessness!..."

The loony left at its finest.

It's funny to see you guys talking all kinds of sh*t about the democrats. It has been the republican party that's running the country into the ground. Your guy say's vote for change, really? And what is change? Does McCain mean Himself? I don't get that, why should we vote republican ? because we didn't f*ck it up bad enough the first two times that's why ! Look to the winning track record of the bush administration every time we needed them they have been right there taking care of business! The only thing bush has left is to set the white house on fire on his way out. Don't get me wrong I was poking fun just a second ago but it is frustrating to see a great country get taken for a ride I really do want things to improve in this country and when i hear everybody fighting and talking shit to each other I see that they are distracted and not thinking about what is best for our nation. Lay down your ideology and use your mind what are we going to do to make America great again?

.....and I'm sorry to say to wise A C Thamer that unfortunately America will never be great again. There's been too much damage done by the Republican administration over the past 8 years...and it all began when they corruptly stole the first election in 2000.
