    Maybe I didn't hear the details. It had something to do with the sports complex built in Wasilla 7 or 8 years ago.
    Yep, that's the one about who got the construction contract.

    How many contractors near Wasilla do you think can handle such a task?

    I think we have to wait until 2011 to know for sure.
    Her own party will tear her to pieces in the primary. She's done right now for 2012, IMO.

    Are we now retroactively holding ourselves to things we might have said, but didn't?
    This again? You think you might have learned your lesson when you had "dumb " -- or rather the absence thereof -- shoved up your ass.

    Your job is do defend your imaginary girlfriend against any attack, real or imagined or just ing made up by yourself.

    I don't think I agree with that. Some in the GOP will try but it will be the base that decides the primary and she had them at o. She can and probably will use the same tactic as Obama to go after the nomination, without as formidable opponent though.

    Of course, this assumes that she can put together a coherent message and stick to it. If she continues to be biden-esque she may become a rich celebrity but never achieve her national ambitions. I don't see anyone nationally or any governors who can take it away from her unless she gives it away.

    How many may have built her a house at the same time for a substantial discount?

    This should be easy enough to clear up. I don't know why it would still have to be a question after all this time.

    Yes.
    I can sit here and show you video of Obama claiming there are 58 states, totally unsolicited, in front a partisan crown, not just flubbing it, but deliberately, slowly and deliberately delivering that line, with thought behind it.....it is a totally inaccurate statement that could be corrected by children not even in school yet.
    I would like to see that, because I only saw it in an interview in which he looked fairly exhausted. I'm certainly open to the possibility of his doing during a speech.


    Conversely, Sarah Palin is glossed as an idiot for saying she can see Russia from her house when it is totally factually true statement
    Ok, I don't ever think she actually said she could see it from her house -- and from what I see on the map, Wasilla is several hundred miles from any Russian territory.

    So until you prove otherwise, I am accusing you of flat out lying about Palin.

    I forgot about that one, but since nothing has occurred, and all other investigations have found no wrongdoing, I will out of had dismiss the thought. I will say she has done nothing wrong until someone can prove otherwise.

    You convict your political adversaries on mere su ion. Why does Palin get a free ride?

    It has to do with the statistics.

    How many allegations have yet to be proved in the ethics investigations?

    Zero!

    So, how's everyone doing? I haven't read all five pages of this thread but, I'm going to comment anyway...

    Libertarians aren't "perplexed" by Sarah.

    The Governor's office, in Juneau, isn't the place from which you start kicking ass and taking names. It wouldn't be fair to the citizens of Alaska for Sarah Palin to completely upend the political establishment on their time or their dime.

    Can't wait to see what happens next.



    Later

    carrying a bit of red ass over that last asskicking are we?

    I never said I was certain, and you had previously anwered for her attackers including yourself among them.

    I still haven't really checked to see if you said anything...I know you said something derogatory chump.





    Your job is do defend your imaginary girlfriend against any attack, real or imagined or just ing made up by yourself.
    Oh yeah no one ever attacks her or her kids

    You can't ing google it? it's all over youtube.

    If he gets that ed up over getting exhausted holy for the world considering he's got the nuclear codes.

    I attributed it to getting ed up and thinking of Heinz 57.

    It could be that since part of his elementary education was in Indonesia he just doesn't know it like we do.

    How come Palin doesn't get to pull the exhaustion card? She was jetting all over the country probably like no other point in her career, she also had a newborn infant and several other kids...IOW, doing everything OBama was doing, plus being mother, including to an infant.

    Obama gets the slack Palin doesn't...

    Double
    Standard

    Ok, I don't ever think she actually said she could see it from her house -- and from what I see on the map, Wasilla is several hundred miles from any Russian territory.

    you're right, what she said wasn't even that stupid, that was from a Tina Fey skit...what she said was even less stupid than that.

    Thanksl for calling me a liar, I wasn't sure you completely felt the severity of the asskicing you got the other night and now I have no doubts about it

    Her defenders aren't going to all of a sudden stop defending her just because the Republicans are attacking her...

    Sarah Palin is glossed as an idiot for saying she can see Russia from her house when it is totally factually true statement not to mention relevant to how she has lived virtually her entire life with her neighbor being one of the most massive world powers, that most Americans consider a far away land.
    Actually, she never said that. She said you could see Russia from Alaska. It was the Tina Fey skit that said "I can see Russia from my house."

    Not to be picky, but those are the facts.

    If they do, it will be them who lose. Too many conservatives love Palin, and republicans who attack her will lose that support.

    Pixel Pusher's right. You can't claim to have foreign policy experience because you are neighbor to a once gigantic superpower. Even though you might have to dialogue with the foreign govt over mineral rights, Ocean zones, fish and wildlife, commerce, etc.

    a picture say a thousand words...Yeah right, not when you can do cheap ripoff snarky comments like your heroes from the Daily Show.

    What foreign policy experience did she say she had?

    Can you quote it?

    She went around that question when asked what officials she meet. At one point she said she didn't.

    And, it wasn't just trade dialogues. Governor Palin was (is) regularly briefed on national security issues as relates to our shared border with Russia -- in her state.

    When Russia chooses to flex its military muscle, usually they encroach/crowd U.S. territory in and around Alaska.

    Oh yeah, let's not forget she also maintained a relationship with Canadian trade officials.

    Actually, if you're speaking about the Couric interview...what she said about her foreing relations experience was -- mostly -- edited out.

    I was thinking of the Gibson interview, and the question was foreign head of state. Sorry I stated that wrong:

    GIBSON: Have you ever met a foreign head of state?

    PALIN: There in the state of Alaska, our international trade activities bring in many leaders of other countries.

    GIBSON: And all governors deal with trade delegations.

    PALIN: Right.

    GIBSON: Who act at the behest of their governments.

    PALIN: Right, right.

    GIBSON: I’m talking about somebody who’s a head of state, who can negotiate for that country. Ever met one?

    PALIN: I have not and I think if you go back in history and if you ask that question of many vice presidents, they may have the same answer that I just gave you. But, Charlie, again, we’ve got to remember what the desire is in this nation at this time. It is for no more politics as usual and somebody’s big, fat resume maybe that shows decades and decades in that Washington establishment, where, yes, they’ve had opportunities to meet heads of state … these last couple of weeks … it has been overwhelming to me that confirmation of the message that Americans are getting sick and tired of that self-dealing and kind of that closed door, good old boy network that has been the Washington elite.

    this is the video i guess you're referring to, you're right she didn't claim to have met foreign officials other than on trade missions, which i brought up under commerce. Now about her admitting that she didn't meet foreign officials i didn't see her say that.
