ANCHORAGE, Alaska (AP) — Police say that Alaska Governor Sarah Palin’s sister-in-law’s, hairdresser’s, grocer had a friend with a pet schnauzer that urinated on an Obama for president sign during the late campaign.
Deputy Wasilla Police Chief Greg Wood said that the complaint was…
OK. Well, my story isn’t exactly the same as the AP story I link above, but it IS just as relevant. Mine’s more interesting, too.

Yeah, WTH, shame on Palin!
Rod_Patrick (Diary) Saturday, April 4th at 7:31AM EST (link)I’m shameful too.
I’m shameful that I wasn’t able to stop a Socialist to rule inside my country. The founding fathers are now haunting me.
I should be hanged on a tree.
And by that, Sarah and I are just the same. We are both disgraceful.
Gov Palin really worries

Section9 Saturday, April 4th at 9:21AM EST (link)This story has, literally, no direct connection to the Palin Family in anything other than a Kevin Bacon sense.
But the Press wants to paint the Palins as white trash hillbillies so they are no threat to the Messiah.
Now in the end, as long as Palin enunciates principles, this probably won’t work, but it’s disappointing to watch the risible partisanship of the news media.
There’s a reason the dead tree media is dying.

passerby25 Saturday, April 4th at 9:35AM EST (link)Its the fact that we have Networks and news outlets that need to fill 24 hours of a day, and keep shallow and interesting enough to beat their competitors. The media now promotes Quantity over Quality, bias or no.
I respectfully disagree…
Of course it's bias. Come on. (nt)

Actually, I was happy to hear more about the “Road To Hell” story… now we have a theme song to affix to the Obama Administration….. HIIIIGHWAY… TO HELL….. Obama’s cover tune on his forthcoming BACK WITH BARACK release!
His group would be called CLEAN SOLAR ENERGY, of course, AC/DC kinda suggests that so yesterday dirty-coal power stuff. Gotta have some fun at BHO’s expense, he sure is having fun at our, and our kids, and our grandkids, and other generations to come, expense!!!!

spaceman_spiff Saturday, April 4th at 10:55AM EST (link)I believe this scenario falls well within the “six degrees of separation.” Simply put, Governor Palin is able to walk out of her office and run into this person makes the story viable. In the same neighborhood as Reductio ad Hitlerum.

AK SC Decision in "Troopergate" released yesterday is here:
Achance (Diary) Saturday, April 4th at 12:28PM EST (link)http://www.state.ak.us/courts/ops/sp-6352.pdf
This is the case where a group of legislators sued to stop the French/Elton investigation. See, particularly the discussion of fairness in administrative and legislative investigations, a Constitutional right in Alaska but not so under the federal Constitution.
Digest: The SC concluded there was no third party right to assert the individual Constitutional rights of another.
This is the first of the “Gov. Palin Cases” to get a SC decision. The one on the suppressed emails and the one regarding the individual employees’ resisting the subpoenae are still pending, maybe some others too.
In Vino Veritas
Looks like sound reasoning by the AK SC
civil truth (Diary) Saturday, April 4th at 1:13PM EST (link)The first point, as you mention, is that Gov. Palin or others more directly affected are the parties who needed to have filed suit, not Republican legislators.
Also, the concurrence indicated that the justices were loath to involve themselves in (due to the identity of the plaintiffs) what appeared to be largely an internal dispute among the legislators.
If I correctly recall, this is the elaboration of the SC’s refusal to not allow a preliminary injunction that was requested in an effort to prevent the public release of the results of the investigation during the campaign – and the result of which was that the report was issued, the Palin side issues criticism in reponse, and the whole matter quickly faded in the absence of a “smoking gun”.
So basically we have a dead matter that the court was tidying up after. I don’t see any clear signals as far a future decisions, other than that the court is not going to roll over for Palin. Which means she’d better have good legal arguments in the other cases pending. (And you’ve written several times as to why Sarah may not prevail.)
The greatest evil…is conceived and ordered (moved, seconded, carried, and minuted) in clean, carpeted, warmed, and well-lighted offices, by quiet men with white collars and cut fingernails and smooth-shaven cheeks who do not need to raise their voice. Hence, naturally enough, my symbol for Hell is something like the bureaucracy of a police state or the offices of a thoroughly nasty business concern. -C.S. Lewis

So let me get this straight
robmikpet (Diary) Saturday, April 4th at 12:51PM EST (link)It was guilt by association when Obama sat in a church for 20 years with a hate monger or was a decades long friend with an unrepentant terrorist, BUT THIS IS RELAVANT!!
This is about the 12th time I have said this, but this is a concerted effort to target conservatives which means TARGETING US! This is war people. Organize, organize 2010 is coming we cannot let one day go to waste.

Unless it’s Sarah Palin, in which case you can go back to uncles and aunts who landed on Plymouth Rock. It comes from being open minded.
Do liberals hope Sarah Palin succeeds?

yes, they want her to be succeeded ;-)

lol
Sorry, couldn’t resist the lame humor interjection
Now I can use the same lame thought in relation to Obama….
I want him to succeed, succeeded in Office by someone else, to be more precise!
Gotta go now… the men in the White-coats are at the door
