The 'Newsweak' smears go on... this is news? When are you 'highly Professional' screen writers going to start criticizing Palin's lipstick color?

You must be talking about her new cosmetic line of lipstick. Dead employee blood red or I'll stomp on you pale pink.
Barry, I am so glad you finally called a spade a spade and called that pig a pig. Oink. Oink. And she wants to appear on the Oprah show....Oy vey....Oprah don't go for white trash....She belongs on the Povich show ...She and all her brood. They should made to have paternity testing. She is so unqualified. Like she probably has never even heard of the Ivy League. She probably thinks Cornell is something that grows on your feet. She probably does not know the 'h' is silent in Amherst. Go Lord Jeffreys. Yeh.
"She is so unqualified. Like she probably has never even heard of the Ivy League."
Hmmm, didn't Bush go to Harvard (just like Barry)? So what about the "Ivy League" makes someone so qualified? I supposed you fully support Bush since he went to an Ivy League school and feel that he was fully qualified?
Nah.... this White Trash, ( possibly inbred ) hillbilly zealot and her pathetic family are perfect fodder for the Jerry Springer Show. I'm surprised he hasn't sent her an invite. Oh.. and where's GERALDO when you need him to "dig" into her scandalous and highly suspicious past ?
My family makes quite a bit of money. We've definitely benefited from the Republican policies over the last 8 years, and would do so in the future. But we live a simple life and don't need or want these breaks at the expense of everything else that matters. McCain will stay in Iraq forever. How? The solders being sent from the Reserves and National Guard were older when all this started, and are continuing to age. Well now, with Palin sending her son to war, McCain and Palin have set the stage for the argument that we all should send our children to war -- it's patriotic. They can't do it without the DRAFT, and Palin will be the perfect poster mother.
S P has too much baggage. McCain used poor judgment in picking her. The thought of her serving as President is just plan scary. The media needs to address these half truths she keeps spouting on the stump.
This woman is no substitute for Hillary Clinton. She should certainly not be VP and the thought that she could serve as President shows how low McCain and the republicans have sunk to try to win the White House. She functions much like Bush and his administration (hiding the truth, lying, claiming Executive Privilege, not handing over emails, behaving as though the rules laws are made for others, but not for her. Do we really want two more Bush clones in power for another 4 to 8 years? Absolutely not!
Palin is scum.
BO is scum
and mnjam
I'm going to research how many Times, Molly Hacket [Palin's Sister], has been Married and does she have a Mental Illness or Drug & Alcohol Dependancies of Any Kind.
The Palin's Vs. The Wooten's are a Modern Day.... Hatfield Vs. The McCoys Event !!
Pettycoat Junction Meets The Clampetts
Green Acres.....A Filmways Presentation Come to Life !!!!
Pure Trailer, Pure Trailer...
Pure Jerry Springer Trash and Maury Pouvich Trash and you want this in the White House !!
if they take this Petty Trash Situation and Drag it through 17 Months of Harassment to a Public Official, for not doing what they Demanded, what won't they Do in the White House..Hmmm
I know Wooten has been Maried (4-Times) !!!
Which is Very Common Behavior among (Rural, Southern & Mountainous People) Not to mention Alaska is a Haven for Domestic & Child Abuse, along with High Teenage Pregnacy !!!
------------------------------------
Wooten has Admitted Tasering the Kid, who wanted to see how it felt....
If tasering a Child was that Big of a Deal to Palin and her Family regarding the Safety of the Child, why did'nt Todd & Sarah Palin, in their Great CONCERN for the Welfare of theis CHILD ....
Go after Wooten when the INCIDENT OCCURED....
NOT AFTER WOOTEN DIVORCED YOUR SISTER...HMMM
VINDICTIVE AS HELL, THATS WHY AND THEY USE THIS TASER INCIDENT TO SMEAR WOOTEN, WHO IS NOT THE STEP-FATHER OF THE YEAR, BY ALL ACCOUNTS...
BUT THEN AGAIN, NEITHER IS PALIN'S SISTER, WHOSE IN QUESTION, REGARDING HER BEHAVIOR....
AN TODD AND SARAH PALIN AS WELL, BEING TRULY GOOD CONCERNED FAMILY MEMBERS, IN RELATIONS TO THIS TASERED CHILD, THEY TRY TO USE AS A WEDGE AND AS A CONVENIENT TOOL, IN THIS MATTER. WHICH QUITE FRANKLY SHE & TODD PALIN SHOULD'VE LEFT ALONE, HARASSING A MAN, 17 MONTHS AND CAUSING HIM TO LOSE HIS JOB, BECAUSE HE WOULD'NT FIRE WOOTEN.
THATS ABUSE OF POWER AND SHOWS A PATTERN WITH PALIN AND HER VINDICTIVE, OUT OF ORDER MINDSET. I HAVE THIS POWER, I CAN WIELD THIS SLEDGE HAMMER ON ANYONE THAT DOES NOT HEED MY DEMANDS OR DESIRES....
JUST LIKE THAT LIBRARIAN, WHO STILL HAS HER JOB, AFTER THE DISSENTION AND OBJECTIONS OF THE TOWNS PEOPLE OF WISALLA ALASKA.
THIS WOMAN IS FULLY EQUIPPED WITH A GUN [POWER] BOTH FIGURATIVELY & LITERALLY, DRIVING A GAS GUZZLING SUBURBAN AROUND ANCHORAGE, SHOUTING PRAISE THE LORD, "MORE EARMARKS & PORK BARRELL FUNDINGS" !!
HOW WILL JOHN MCCAIN, MOREOVER SARAH PALIN, RECONCILE THESE [LIES], NOT GAFFES, BUT [LIES] WHEN QUESTIONED BY THE PRESS OR VIA A VP DEBATE WITH JOE BIDEN..HMMM
------------------------------------------
PALIN TELLS THE WORLD [LIES] ABOUT THE ILLS OF HAVING A STATE OWNED OR PRIVATE PLANE, WHILE SHE FLIES FIRST CLASS, IN JOHN MCCAIN'S PRIVATE JET...
AN WHEN AN EMERGENCY HAPPENS IN ALASKA, HOW IS SHE GOING TO GET TO FAIRBANKS, JUNEAU, AND BACK TO ANCHORAGE OR WISALLA OR ANY REMOTE AREA OF ALASKA ..HMMM
FACT: MOST GOVERNORS HAVE A STATE OR PRIVATE PLANE, IN CASE OF REGIONAL EMRGENCIES OR DISASTORS !!!
I believe the Librarian finally resigned.
FACT: You really think the state has a 65% approval rating of her and that she wouldn't be equipped to deal with DISASTORS? Where's the DISASTORous fact? Just b/c you put FACT in front of something doesn't make it a DISASTOR FACT.
THE GOVERNOR IS THERE TO PROTECT "THE PEOPLE" NOT THE OTHER WAY AROUND.
THEN THERE SHOULD BE A NATIONAL SHARING OF THE PEOPLE WHO GOVERN THEMSELVES AND THE GOVERNOR AND LT. GOVERNOR ARE NOT NEEDED
WHEN AN EARTH QUAKE OCCURS AND A MAJOR CALAMITY OCCURS, AND THE PEOPLE CANNOT HELP THEMSELVES...
I GUESS, IN YOUR MIND, THE PEOPLE WILL HELP TMEMSELVES...
LIKE IN HURRICANE KATRINA, OR THE FLOOD IN IOWA...
THE GOVERNOR, THE LT. GOVERNOR AND THE NATIONAL GAURD, HELPS "THE PEOPLE" IN DISASTROUS TIMES AND THE PRESIDENT COMMANDS THE ALASKAN NATIONAL GAURD, NOT PALIN... DUH !!!
HER APPROVAL RATING HAS DROPPED IN ALASKA TO 67%
Assuming the worst--that all the allegations against Palin are true, and the unreported facts do not mitigate the reason for her actions--then...
Better to have the worst Republican in office than the best Democrat (if there is such a thing).
What a mature attitude. If I can't get my way then lets sink the boat.
Dear "rocude" --
What evidence do you have that he tasered her son? Court documents? Testimony? Far Right Blogs?
Actually, her brother-in-law admitted on CNN to tasering his step son, with some rather strange extenuating circumstances. The brother-in-law wins no prizes as man of the year, but he isn't the one running for VP.
Frankly, why do we care? Most politicians partake in abuses of power, one way or another; it's inherent in the concept of power. McCain, Obama and Biden all have their blunders; so did Bush, Bush, Clinton and Clinton.
What has any of it got to do with the ISSUES?
I want to know her views on medicare, gas prices, trade, Afghanistan, Fannie and Freddie.
Why isn't she, and why aren't we, talking about them?
Abuse of power is a seriouse threat to our democracy. Excusing by saying well, every other politician does it doesn't make much sense.
What evidence do you have that she acted in an illegal manner in his firing?[there is none to support with hard evidence either contention]. This is for the investigation to reveal. Bear in mind that Palin critics have moved without such evidence to air their ''facts''. Hence,FACTCHECKS dismantling of these rather blatant lies which were spread by the fourth estate rather than a tabloid.
Seems to me Palin & her family are on power stroids. There is a reason the judge warned the Palin family. Seems to me Palin has a history of firing people who cross her path like a librianian upholding the first admendment by refusing to ban books Wasn't it the justice department that illegally & politally fired US Atty Generals for not going along with their ideologies. Maybe since McCain gave up picking his own VP in exchange for Christian right votes who's fanatical ideology is not majority America I feel the Forth Estate so vitally healthy for a Democracy owe it to Americans to vet this woman. Like where she stands on our Constitution, the Bill of Rights. Vet her on her position of feeling rape victims should pay for their own investigation while the purpatrators skip. Is that justice in America yet she feels she is expert enough to want to revamp our justice system. How about her bragging about her anti-abortion stance while rejecting legistaion to help teens moms get on their feet. What christian compassion while expecting Alaska to foot the bill for her family! Who are the eletist! She bragg about her fiscal accum. If she's so good why is it her town was several million in debt when she left office but had none before!
ONE OF THESE DAYS PEOPLE WILL SEE HOW VINDICTIVE THIS WOMAN WOULD YOU WANT HER AS PRESIDENT IF JOHN DIED.ISURE WOULD NOT ALSO IF YOU LIE ABOUT ONE THING USUALLY YOU GET CAUGHT IN BIGGER ONES.PARTIAL LIES ARE NO DIFFERENT THAN JUST PLAIN LIES BRIDGE TO NOWHERE PUTTING STUFFON E BAY WHICH I DO IF ISELL IT OUTSIDE E BAY AND SAY I SOLD ON E BAY THATS A LIE PERIOD 201BS
I also went through a divorce. But was only told once, not numerous times over several years, that disparaging remarks would not be tolerated. I think we are missing something here. And i am sorry about your divorce. No one wins.
Palin is an arrogant sarcatic little "B****" that throws her weight around because of her power and she is also one of these kind of women, "if I can't have my way" I will get even....what a poor excuse of a VP selection....Just like the "Pit-Bull" that she refers to herself as, if anything happened to McCain if he were elected Pres., she would "Pit-Bull" the US in all kinds of international conflicts especially not having any kind of foreigh policy experience.....I wouldn't vote for her for "all the tea in China" and I am a female voter.....I see that John M. is really keeping her sequestered so that the news media don't get a chance to question her....HER HUSBAND IS NOTHING MORE THAN A "HENPECKED" YES MAN...& Cindy M. had better watch out, because John M. is drooling all over himself and of course, we all know that he has a penchant for former "Beauty Queens"....
Whoa. Tone down the sexism. You don't see people throwing racial slurs around here do you? Then why go for the gender slurs?
Palin seems perfectly suited to replace Dick Cheney in terms of abuse of power, outright lying (e.g., Bridge to Nowhere lie, and "my office had nothing to do with firing the man who would not fire my brother-in-law"), hiding evidence (not giving up e-mails), and thinking she's above the law (not cooperating with the investigation and claiming Executive Privilege).
one of the sad things i heard on the subway train this morning was that the reason why so many white voters have suddenly shifted to mccain/palin ticket is that these voters are so against a man of color, a black man, occupying the white house. they don't care about the economy going further down the pits, nor the loss of young american lifes in the iraq war. they just don't want a black man in the white house. just look at the mccain/palin rallies.
i am a registered republican and i'm ashamed to say i voted for bush twice. i will not vote for him this third time around. i want peace and prosperity again, not more of the same past 8 years.
BTW - I call BS. I don't think your a Repub who suddenly has a Dem change of heart, I think your a Bot or a paid Obama troll. How much is the campaign paying these days?
Really? That's your "source" - an overheard conversation on the subway? Well on my bus ride I heard that the reason so many men voted for BO in the Dem primaries is that they couldn't stand the tought of a woman in the WH. I also heard that BO hates women? Does that make it true?
People don't want BO, because he's BO. Not because he's -- as you put it -- "a man of color" (what is this, 1930?)
As a divorced parent who went through a less than friendly custody hearing; every judge gives that lecture about how disparaging remarks by you and other family members are considered child abuse. I don't say anything negative and my family is not allowed to say anything negative about my son's father. Negative comments demean the child not the adult. For Palin to do this demonstrates to me her disrespect for her niece's and nephew. The woman has no morals or ethics.
Hey DT's @ 11:57.. Read the story! The Taser incident is mentioned in the article. GOP: Shoot first, get the facts later. "Bailey repeated previous charges made by the Palins against the trooper???including allegations that he had Tasered his stepson; driven a cop car while holding a beer; and shot a moose without a permit (charges which resulted in his suspension for five days without pay as a trooper)."
Unfortunately we have little time to 'know' Palin like we have the other candidates, and yet to date it does seem to show that she is a bush wanna be. Will say what you want to hear, then do what is best for themselves. A pattern of abuse of power has been seen already, and unfortunately there are those that are blinded to the needs of a VP for our country, and a popularity contest. In the business world, her resume wouldn't get her a job in the top 500 companies, let alone possibly running the country as I think she'll even push Mcains buttons. Please vote for the country, not for the gimmick.
What "pattern" of abuse? Facts please? She abuses her power by trying to address a guy that tasers his stepson, wow, what abuse...
Again, you weren't there, so you are the one spreading the rumors. Why do you feel she is telling the truth over a state trooper. I feel for the law enforcement if she gets in to office by the way she is treating one of their own.
You're right, I wasn't there, and neither were you, where is the "pattern" of abuse? That's all I'm asking, please show me at least 3 data points that indicate a "pattern". One point is nothing, two points is a straight line to no where, 3 MIGHT show a pattern, please, really, I'd like to see the pattern you speak of regarding Palin so that I can make an objective decision based on this pattern you have information on.
The Judge called the harrasment by Sarah and Todd a form of child abuse. He ordered them to stop. They did not. There is one point.
Palin's abuse of power here reminds me a lot of how the Bush camp submarined Valerie Plame (the covert CIA agent) to get back at her husband, Wilson, for speaking up about Bush lying about Sadam Hussein trying to acquire uranium yellow cake from north Africa.
If you ask me, Palin looks a little too much like the religious zealot vindictive wahoo we have sitting in the Oval Office right now for comfort.
