They still get the name wrong:

Taser Gate !!

[Redbob]

The Liberals really do fear her, don’t they?

I’m thinking they’re misinterpreting the lipstick...

[anniegetyourgun]

They want to finish her off. I hope she knows that it’s not her, it’s what she stands for they dislike so intensely. And on of those things she stands for that they hate the most is her God.

[seekthetruth]

Of course the media and RINO’s in the RNC will continue in their quest to destroy Sarah because she is a big threat to them!

Just in case anyone missed seeing this interview with Sarah,watch the interview at this link. It is not cut into little pieces like some of the videos out there. Sarah lets the media have it about the false accusations and she does it with such class! :)

Have you joined the Team Sarah web site and the Joe the Plumber’s watchdog web site? I have and will be ready for supporting only real conservative candidates in 2010 and 2012. Hoping Sarah runs for President in 2012!

,,,for example, she doesn’t know that africa’s a continent.

Of course the MSM ignored the comment from Hussein about "all 57 states". No hypocrisy there at all. /s

[Prole]

Absolutely.

I refuse to even turn on my TV anymore unless Sean Hannity is on.

I question everything else.

Too many lies and pro-Obama related garbage on the TV.

PS... Your photo is great!!!

[Diana in Wisconsin]

You can smell the fear from here...

We can all guess what the inteview will be about on the "Today Show" next week. Sarah Palin is being set up to be the evil Republican from Alaska. Let me guess what the interview questions will be:

1. Did you cost John McCain the election? If not, why not?

3. Did you keep any of the clothes that the RNC provided for you? There are reports that everything has not been returned.

4. Where did you go to school to not learn that Africa is a continent?

5. When will you ask Ted Stevens to resign?

What did you know and when did you know it about Ted Stevens corruption charges? Is this how the GOP does business in Alaska?

6. Why are you not responsible for the death threats made against Obama? If something WERE to happen, would your rhetoric be a contributing factor?

[an amused spectator]

So, Justin Rood and his boss, Brian Ross, are on the list.

[Finalapproach29er]

Republicans should threaten ABC’s license.

[padre35]

I read a fascinating article that explains the PDs to a “T”:

Sarah Palin is the last, credible, nationally known Conservative Republican, she could be the spokeswoman for Conservatives across the spectrum, Mitt cannot do it, McCain cannot do it, no one outside of Newt can even attempt to be that spokeswoman for “us”.

Of course then the article went on to explain that Sarah Palin should start her own internet organization, charge 50 bucks for paying members, the use the funds to help Conservatives win in local and state races or even Congressional Districts.

To me, that is a flipping brilliant idea, it would create a PAC that only dealt with Conservatives AND was free of the DC/MSM Elite media influences and attacks.

As for ABC News...pfft...

[Windcatcher]

Palin is an ENORMOUS threat!

Hillary is out of the mix for 2012, so Palin will have a golden opportunity to peel off the women’s vote from the “mushy middle”. Look for nonstop bashing of her for the entire next four years. She’s that big of a threat.

[ken21]

kfi said africa.

apparently, the socialist media and the country club republicans hate sarah palin.

she’s a populist and populism has a not-too-good winning record in american history.

populists are almost always knocked down by the elites.

here, the marxist elite and the country club elite.

[ken21]

ditto.

[I see my hands]

To: I see my LEFT hand

"The post election bipartisan gang rape of Sarah Palin wasn't going to be just a few 24 hour news cycles. A new week, a new wave."

You got that part right. But why not point out it was McCain who lured her to the alley? Bug wit troll.

[Doug TX]

This is a perfect example of when the real republican party needs to hammer back twice as hard. Simple denials or ‘please lay off’ mentality is BS. Hammer them hard. Give them a copy of obama’s phony BC and tell them to go get em.

If this gets play elsewhere, then its more manufacture a story for ratings.

Isn’t Ingraham a pal of Tapper? She needs to open fire.

[DustyMoment]

Dear ABC,

Perhaps you missed this little snippet of news while you were buried in your hackneyed, partisan attacks . . . . . the team of McCain-Palin lost the election. Gov. Palin has gone back to Alaska. The McCain campaign staff returned the wardrobe that Gov. Palin never requested. The Obamessiah’s 35 lawyers that went to Alaska trying to dig dirt up on Gov. Palin didn’t find any.

This story is over. Pretend you have REAL news to report, because you can’t keep these partisan attacks up and make them relevant for the next 4 years.

Sincerely,
The Americans That Never Watch Your Dreck

Everywhere I go — I find the weak minded that voted for obie and start the conversation; so, he promised us a lot of money — what are you going to buy first, usually it is something ridiculous, so then I chime in — have you started e-mailing the democrats to let them know you want you “pie,” and you want it now...then I remind them, you know how politician are — they will say anything to get into office — and then they will turn their back on you — but hey, you don’t think obie would do that to you — do you — naw, he is going to come through with the pie that he promised to you and the rest of his supporters that voted for welfare (I mean, pie) and lots and lots of it — “he promised you, to fill your gas tank and pay your mortgage — right.”

I mean, you don’t think he would be like a typical guy and get what he wants and then not call you — right?

Then I walk away — you can see them thinking, “ah sh#@, I fell for it again” — usually the looks on their faces is priceless.

Well, the media is trying to distract us with this Governor Palin BS...I say, give it right back to them.

Ask anyone you know that voted for obie — “when they think they are getting their pie.” Hell, they will start their own impeachment proceedings when they don’t get it...he can’t deliver on this one, not now, not with the economy the way it is.

“Mike Wooten as a victim”

Officer Wooten is still an Alaska state trooper

Wooten, 36, has had four failed marriages

threatened to kill Palin’s father

drunk driving while in a patrol car

******

March 26, 2005 Officer Wooten was off-duty, drinking at the Mugshot Saloon in Wasflla when he pulled out hisTrooper badge and demanded the bartender (Mr. Chris Brightbill) remove a patron whom Wooten disliked.

The bartender knew Wooten was off-base with his demands and subsequently testified that Wooten was out of control, was abusing his position and authority and should not be in the position of a licensed Trooper, as he believes Wooten isa ‘loose cannon”. (Private Investigator Leonard Hackett, interview and statement of Brightbill on 6/27/05.)

Wooten eventually left the bar, was pulled over after a REDDI was called into Trooper dispatch after the callerobserved Wooten driving drunk, and Wooten was pulled over. (Ironically, Wooten has been a member of your DUITask Force and is featured in your television DUI Task Force PSAs.)

The Trooper who pulled Wooten over is Officer DaVe Harren. He has served as a subordinate to Wooten. He did not cite Wooten for drunk driving, but merely gaveWooten a ride to a friend’s house after responding to the REDDI.

Wooten then called his wife (Molly McCann,376-0302), explained that he was over the legal limit, and his wife picked him up at the friend’s house and warned Wooten that his drinking and driving would “”catch up with him” as he continued to disregard warnings about his drinkingand driving practice in our small town.

Wooten told others about this incident as a braggart way of reminding othersthat he is “untouchable” as a Trooper.Around this time, Wooten rode with his girlfriend, Mrs. Angie Johnson, home from another local bar after another nightof drinking, Mrs. Johnson was pulled over by a Trooper for suspected drunk driving, According to Wooten’s account ofthe evening, he leaned over from the passenger window and demanded the responding Trooper to turn off his recorderand not cite Mrs. Johnson. She was not cited for DUI. Wooten subsequently bragged about this incidence to others,including Steven Menard (phone # 232-2120), again casting doubt in the public about the sincerity of the Trooper’s mission.

Wooten -drinks excessively and has showed extremely poor judgement and disregard for others’ safety with his practiceof drinking and driving, including on Jan. 19, 2005 drove home drunk; Jan. 23, 2005 drove home drunk after SuperBowl party in Anchorage; Feb. 6,2005 in Anchorage leaving the Sullivan Arena’s WWE Pro Wrestling event, drovevery drunk as he drank Crown Royal straight from bottle, brought the Crown Royal into the Sullivan in PowerAdebottle and petrified his stepson who was with Wooten in the vehicle; Feb. 12, 2005 in Wasifla; Feb. 13, 2005 drovedrunk in Big Lake (leaving Call of the Wild Bar, next day so hungover he had to call in sick to Trooper Headquarters);March 13, 2005 drank at least three beers in car while driving family home from Glennallensnowmachine trip, driving over the speed limit and scaring his wife and kids who begged him to stop drinking on thedrive home.

Wooten’s consumption of alcohol while driving with small children in his vehicle (as witnessed by his wifeand stepson, Molly and Payton McCann, 376-0302) is deplorable.

He’s even left a friend’s home in Ms Trooper car,waving with beer in hand, again drinking and driving in an arrogant public statement declaring he is above the law (aswitnessed by Adrian and Marilyn Lane, 376-9060)
