Start the clock.
Freeper debunking to commence...NOW!
But intelligent people will see it as no big deal
Who cares!?
Well, you know. It is what it is. I do not think it will have a serious effect on anything.
I wonder if he bombed anyone?
Good for him. A man who looks out for his family....the press won’t know what to do with that.
Good for him! Sticking up for his family!
Nothing there to debunk.
“Anyone who knows Sarah knows she is the governor and she calls the shots,” Todd Palin wrote. “I make no apologies for wanting to protect my family and wanting to publicize the injustice of a violent trooper keeping his badge.”
What the hell is wrong with people that think this was not right? I know if someone like that was involved in my life I would have done a lot more than just applying pressure to have that goon fired.
This country has too many people that have lost their minds, and stand up for the wrong people, at least until it affects them personally. If it did we would see how fast their tunes would change.
Suggestive and innacurate headline. What a surprise!
HERE’S THE NUT:
[... Palin says she fired Monegan over a budget
dispute. The documents filed late Wednesday bolster
that claim and also describe an effort by Monegan
to wrest control of the department away from Palin...]
If he did then McCain/Palin would be leading in the polls by about ten points!
Is Todd Palin running for anything?
“Todd Palin said he never pressured anyone — including his wife. In fact, he says that after talking about the matter with her repeatedly, she finally told him to “drop it.””
Guess this part of the story isn’t being emphasized.
Yea, I think this is a good report for Sarah.
*shrugs*
Nancy Reagan got some officials fired too.
Only if they switched parties.
Maybe the MSM will make the mistake of coming after him on this, which will mean spouses are ‘in play’
Does that thought make me proud to be an American for the first time, or was it just downright mean? / Sarc off
Oh, I think they will turn it around as Todd covering up for his wife.
