You’re right, plainslow — I don’t know anything about McCain. The guy lies so fucking much about everything; who even knows anything about him? What comes out of his mouth that’s actually true?

But you seem to trust him, so hey.. Have a happy time voting for the loser.

You’re going to Hugh Hewitt for your “facts”? Good lord. I never trust a man whose first name and last name are almost the same, like good ole HughHew. Furthermore, he looks like a retarded muppet. And on the topic of retardness, have you ever really read what the man has to say? After it was determined beyond the shadow of a doubt that not only did Bush lose the first debate in 2004, but Kerry’s performance there pushed him back into the race, HughHew the Muptard still tried to say that Bush won the debate in the introduction of his book “Blog”. HughHew is a man who is allergic to facts and anything empirical. And you listen to him? Get the fucking stones out of your head, man.

Vote for who you like Tas. Just don’t hate someone you know nothing about.

BTW -

1) The “Troopergate” report is one (clearly biased) investigator’s opinion – the members of the investigative commission merely voted to release the report, without expressing agreement or approval at this point – in fact, it appears (from preliminary statements) that there is substantial controversy over the validity of the report as released. At least one member of the Alaska Legislature has publicly expressed serious doubt concerning the veracity of the report as released – it seems likely that there will be more to come.

2) The first two “findings” in the released report are directly contradictory, and it appears that the investigator has stretched his own interpretation of the statute cited in the first “finding” extensively beyond anything logical or even reasonable, purely in order to try to produce a conclusion that is unfavorable to Governor Palin. The second “finding” – that the Governor acted properly and well within her authority in reassigning (NOT “firing”, as the investigator alludes) Monegan – is clearly the substantially more important matter, and (despite the investigator’s expressed OPINION concerning motive, which is NOT supported by fact, and which is contradicted by Monegan’s own prior statement) is also clearly in the Governor’s favor.

3) This report, as bloated and wordy as it is (all 263 pages’ worth), is NOT the whole report – there is much more which has not yet been seen – nor has it been reviewed, debated, agreed with, nor in any way, shape or form been accepted by any part of the Alaska Legislature; nor, in fact, has it even been approved of by the Legislative Council who voted to release it. It is entirely the work of one partisan and clearly-biased individual, motivated and paid for by one Alaskan Senator who is also clearly an advocate for Barack Obama, and an enemy of Sarah Palin. It cannot, therefore, be considered to be anything more than an attempt to besmirch Governor Palin as a purely political ploy by one or more advocates for Obama/Biden. The only useful part is the second half of the second “finding” – the rest is slanted, partisan dreck.

Sorry to burst your little bubble – but them’s the facts.

“November 4th. The day we put the grown-ups back in charge.”

Really? Who’d you have in mind? Lil’ ol’ Barry Hussein, the Obamessiah?

How can you tell he’s a grown-up…from all the absolute lack of useful background? The in-the-tank affiliation with the Chicago political machine? The lies, damn lies and lying inanities that fall from his carefully-scripted, hidden-Socialist, tax-and-spend-or-steal lips?

Good luck with that one…The Great Barry, Flim-Flam Man Supremo…

Well, plainslow, what exactly is there to like about McCain? The lies? Damn lies? Or the videotapes of him lying?

I typed this, realized I sent it again. This note is to delete the second message, I hope.

How can anybody, dislike someone they never met, so quickly. If you don’t like Republican Ideals, that’s one thing. But to show the hate I’ve seen, is nuts.
I moved to my town, and the first people I met told me about the people I would’nt like. I still like those people, but I became good freiends with the peopel I was’nt supposed to like. I always thought that was a good quality. To not let someone dictate what I do, or do not like. I guess I’m way to old.

I can just hear the defensive spin right now: “no one could have anticipated. . .”. Just like no one could have anticipated:
- the breaching of the levees
- the insurgency in Iraq
- that “Bin Laden [was] determined to strike in the US”
- the tainting of products from China
- the collapse of the housing bubble
- the NSA would spy on ordinary citizens

I’ve always regarded this line of defense as the embodiment of that other famous, whining defensive statement: “It’s hard work”.

I am so disgusted with the whole lot of them. They wanted the job of running the country. Hell, they even cheated to win the job of running the country. So, fer gawd’s sake, run the damn country!

November 4th. The day we put the grown-ups back in charge.
