First, who wouldn't want a husband that would protect their family like Todd did?

But more interesting, imagine if

timing = 1993 - 2000
spouse = wife (instead of husband)
governor = president
governor's office = oval office
issue = pick one! (Monica, Kathleen Willey, Billy Ray Dale, FBI files, . . .)

Would there even be a story?

I would expect Todd or any husband or brother or son to step in for his loved ones...especially when the one who has a vendetta against you carries a gun...

[Bean Counter]

Gee! This is so much more important than Obama’s cocaine use, Bill Ayers, Rev. Wright, etc, etc, etc...

[icwhatudo]

So when a spouse of a government official tries to get rid of someone who threatened to kill their partners father...thats a bad thing?

the worst for palin is now behind her. now we can talk about acorn

[Tarpon]

You are right, change the characters and it becomes a yawner for the drive by media. The drive by media needs to die off...

Todd — Probably didn’t like a gun carrying loon threatening his wife’s parent. What so strange about that?

Molehills into mountains for Palin, mountains into molehills for Hussein.

I have seen a few reports with locals closer to the story and I get the impression the folks in Alaska don't really care about this and are supporting the Governor. they have been with it for years so I will trust their judgment.

What do we expect? When this ethics probe is embedded with Obama operatives, corrupt politicians and DemonRATs with an ax to grind, it is no surprise that they would attack Governor Palin’s husband. With the mentality working in this moose stew gone bad, it is a wonder that they did not hit Big Foot for posing as a rubber gorilla in a block of ice!

<sup>I'd like to imagine a world where both Bill Clinton and Sarah Palin would get justice.  I'm quite comfortable with that.

Sarah would be working out of the White House, and Bill  would be shoveling under an out house.

Sarah's actions were legal.  Bill's were not.</sup>

This “Taser-gate” attempted smear by Obama’s supporters and other Demwits in Alaska and in the partisan media has already backfired, and seriously.

Another reason to love Todd. Hey, where are the pix?

[keats5]

This just makes me like the Palin family better. Todd’s big “ethics violation” was that we loved his wife and wanted to protect her.
