Comments on: Palin Abused Power, Ethics Report Finds

"Troopergate" Probe Finds Governor Broke State Ethics Law By Trying To Have Ex-Brother-In-Law Fired

[rodneyt74]

Everyone keeps say they wanted to kill us.. Do you realize the attacks on twin towers wasn''t trying to kill a large number of people. There was 5 or 6 thousand people in the buildings when it was hit. If they wanted to kill a lot of people they would have hit a NFL game or Nascar race with a couple of planes and killed 100,000 people.

The attacks were against our economy!!! They were trying to hit the trade center because it was our economic center and to make us come after them. Guess what the attack against our economy worked!! 7 years later our economy is going down the drain because we took our eye off the ball and spent a ton of money going after someone that at the time wasn''t a threat to us at all. Yes Iraq could have become a threat but it wasn''t even close to being one at the time.

Bush is a complete idiot and fell right into al-qaida plan. Mccain is same way he didn''t even realize what the attacks are for or what they are really trying to do. Terrorism isn''t about kill everyone in america, its about taking our economy down. Yes people get killed in terrorism but the main purpose it to bring us down as a country. If we focus all of our military and money at terrorism then we have LOST!!! If we don''t worry about Russia or China attacking us with there military then why do we spend Trillions of dollars on a few crazy people with no chance of hurting us like a huge war would.

drcool2u says, "Radical Muslims want to kill all the nonbelievers, If Obama wins, will all have to convert to Islam"

HOW LONG are you re.tards going to keep up this slander? Obama is NOT a muslim. He is a Christian. Your pitiful attempts to stir up hatred are disgusting. Despite the entirely negative tone of his campaign, even McCain had to publicly denounce this kind of cr@ppola from his audience!

Why don''t you hate-mongers crawl back into your slimy holes and stay there?!!

"Radical Muslims want to kill all the nonbelievers, If Obama wins, will all have to convert to Islam"

Non-believers in the Bush doctrine? Non-believers in 11 trillion deficit?? or non-believers in GOP???

[macusweil]

She''ll make a perfect successor to Bush should anything happen to McCain. She''ll continue where she left off as governor of Alaska abusing her authority to inflict her will over that of the people.

[marshall65]

McCain is a tactician and one in fact who uses very short term decisions in his campaign. Obama looks very much like a person with a strategic view but able to make wise tactical moves. I think we need a president who thinks strategically so he/she can see the potential outcome of any decision over a long term. GW obviously was not that kind of thinker. As for the Troopergate investigation, the ''tactical'' mindset played a role in using the Personnel Board to clear Palin. The results of such nearsightedness are obvious when one reads the Newsweek story just posted. An Excerpt: "But there could be more land mines ahead. Some weeks ago, the McCain team devised a plan to have Palin file an ethics complaint against herself with the State Personnel Board, arguing that it alone was capable of conducting a fair, nonpartisan inquiry into whether she fired Monegan because he refused to fire Wooten, who had been involved in a messy custody battle with her sister. Some Democrats ridiculed the move, noting that the personnel board answered to Palin. But the board ended up hiring an aggressive Anchorage trial lawyer, Timothy Petumenos, as an independent counsel. McCain aides were chagrined to discover that Petumenos was a Democrat who had contributed to Palin''s 2006 opponent for governor, Tony Knowles. Palin is now scheduled to be questioned next week, and the counsel''s report could be released soon after. "

McCain must be regretting the choice now. If he had been smart, he would have rejected the idea to begin with. I think she''s put the final nail in the coffin for McCain.

everyone seems to forget that clinton fired the whole white house travel office & put his friends in there

[rodneyt74]

Lets see..

Obama Mccain
------ ------
Ayers = Contras,Liddy
Wright = Hagee, La Raza, Schenck
Rezko = Keeting

And that doesn''t even bring up Mccain''s Gambling, and cheating on his wives problem. I mean his first wife waiting on him to get back from war and when he did come back how did he repay her?? He cheated on her and left her for another woman! And even tried to marry cindy before he was even divorced from his first wife!!! Why doesn''t any of mccain past come up in media!!!


If he will cheat on his wives he will definately lie and cheat on america. A mans relationship with his wife will be alot stronger than what he will tell us or do behind our backs..

[jclark7613]

Basically she violated ethical laws but because she''s governor she can hire and fire whom ever she want. That''s make no sense to me. She wasn''t in danger or she would have kept the extra security detail and she will probably get away with it. I hope at least she''ll have to pay financially. You know that republicans don''t like to part from there money. McCain should have veeted her better. To many deserving female republicans that deserved vp spot.

[jimjus]

What is going on? Now we will have two VP,s. Palin and her husband Todd. The investigation revealed that Palin''s husband, Todd, who is not a state employee, has extraordinary access to the governor''s office and her closest advisers.

Good luck

The Ethical dilemna is Calling Mccain a War hero

Here''s a Republican you tube video

with the Viet Cong--
He betrayed his Country!!!
He was in 32 of their video''''s--
And was the only Senator blocking the release of the Pentagon papers that would potentially incriminate him!!!
These are Republican''s discussing him!!!

So much for Putting Country First!!!

Funny how people change once they get a taste of kool-aid. Some reformer. Hockey-mom/pit bull? More like lieing b_itch.
Sarah Palin refused to grant an interview to investigators, after originally agreeing to participate.

In July she had welcomed the investigation, telling reporters, "Hold me accountable." She said at the time that there was never pressure put on Commissioner Monegan, and that she had "absolutely nothing to hide."

After being named to the McCain ticket in late August, however, she ceased cooperating [as did many of her staff who were subpoenaed], as the McCain campaign besmirched the impartiality of the bipartisan investigation.

Of course they did, in any city you will have both factions, choosing to focus just on the bad side is just foolish.

Keep in mind that Al Capone had regular associations with regular folks just like us ans many admired him for his organizational skills and the jobs and money he provided at the time. That does not mean associations lead to the same belief.

In McCains case it''s been shown over and over it does. As he says my record is there. Yep it is.

[joker1944-2009]

''Democrat Barack Obama is hitting back at Republican claims that he launched his first state Senate campaign in the living room of former terrorist Bill Ayers and is linked to "party boss" Bill Daley.

Both claims are made in a Republican Party ad called "The Chicago Way." GOP nominee John McCain has also made the Ayers claim in an interview.

The Obama spot, called "Lose," says he launched his 1995 state Senate campaign at a Ramada Inn in Chicago and notes that McCain has praised Daley, a former U.S. commerce secretary. "With no plan to fix our economy, smears are all McCain has left," says the new Obama ad. Politifact evaluates a McCain video ad about Ayers, Obama and The Annenberg Challenge and rates it "pants on fire."''

Obama is countering every smear, taking the high road to do so, and making the McCain camp (and his moronic followers) look like a joke.

In America we sell injustice to the rich and force it on the poor.

But Todd wasn''t even part of the Cabinet, so how does he have a right? If this is all true, why are they asking Sarah the b to PRESERVE ALL OF HER EMAILS? Is there yet another chapter to be revealed in the lying bit** life?
