Ouch ! That's gonna leave a mark!

A legislative committee investigating Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin has found she unlawfully abused her authority in firing the state's public safety commissioner.

That may hurt quite a bit. I believe the committe was bi-partisan.

Yea, right after she released her own report that said she did nothing wrong. I like that, very Republican these days.

Can anyone say "liability"?

Or should that be "lie ability"?

I would like to see more people in the White house, and political power generally, who are not middle-age white males. But I also require them to be competent and reasonably honest.

Condy Rice would have been ideal if she weren't so politically repellent to me.

Bi-partisan - that's good, right? Like bi-sexual.

Unless this is all part of The Master Plan, whereby McCain proves his maverick status by picking a (politely described) unlikely running-mate, but then finds an excuse to replace her with someone secretly wanted all along.

But shhhh! Don't tell anyone it was me that told you. They're watching everyone.

Compared to the transgressions of the last 8 years, this finding is not that dastardly, but it's enough for me. Particularly because her spouse was involved in it, too. Replacing her is the better choice but I read somewhere that it is not in McCain's power to do so. Once she accepted the nomination it became an RNC matter and 147 (?) of them would have to agree. Of course, now I can't find the info again.

I think you're right but I'm sure she would bail out if McCain asked her to.

You know, I'm just plain tired of being lied to. Pick a party, doesn't really matter.

I'd rather she said, yea, the dick fucked with my sister, oh and yea he's a bad cop, and I'm in a position to do something about it. If you don't fucking like it, elect some one else next term.

Just quit lying to me. Please.

[sarc]Joe, you really need to stop thinking like a normal human being with loved ones. It is just so unbecoming. Think about the children. You know if you were a true member of the communista you would fall in line and join us in the stoning and attacks on her and her family. It is really important to the cause. We are the sheep. Join us now or die. Free CHE![/sarc]

Well, if you would only start by ignoring the lies about a blowjob, then that would be a start.

Which lie would that be? We aren't talking about DNA on a blue dress are we?
