Bad move. The story was a bunch of faint allegations apparently being quietly investigated. Now the story is the attempted suppression of a media story. Baaaaad move.

Amazing how threads like this take off, but start a thread containing " Obama, NBC, GE " the lefties avoid it like Perez Hilton avoids vagina's ..........

It's the only dead horse they have left to beat. How can anyone cheer on Obama's efforts?
she's a patriotic proud American unlike the asshole you voted for.
I think that Palin was more of a novelty than anything else. Few people thought that McCain would ask Palin to run. Also there was that attitude: “Neato, we could have a female governor from Alaska as president.” I think that the poll numbers bounced up a tiny bit as a result for the Republican team for a while due to Palin. Yet, the numbers settled back down after the novelty wore off and Palin was put under the preverbal microscope. People learned about her support/opposition to the “bridge to nowhere” and about the allegations of her abuse of power concerning her relatives. They eventually saw her as just another politician.
With regard to media attention, I’m not sure what percentage of the time the media went looking for her and what percentage of the time, after the excitement of the election was over, she went looking for a camera. A little while after the election, she seemed to migrate to the talk-show circuit and whine about how the alleged pro-liberal biased media picked on her unfairly. She struck me as something of a cry-baby. Her comments during her resignation speech give support to this notion. She said that, “We know we can affect [sic] positive change outside government at this moment in time on another scale and actually make a difference." She felt that politics had become a "superficial, wasteful bloodsport”.
I’d like to know what more change can be made outside of government than can be made inside of government? I think that when she stepped out from behind that frozen tundra and into the national spotlight, she was shocked by what she had gotten herself into. She did a fair job of fighting for the Whitehouse to the bitter end but I think that on the inside she was thinking, “Oh, God. I can’t wait until this is over so that I can go back home for a while and then cry about how I was treated, and then get out of the political kitchen all together.”

This is about right.
I voted for Palin basically for one reason: the Sandra Bernhard video. For those who missed it, Sandra Bernhard is a Jew "comedienne" who got onstage at some Jewish charity event in D.C. and starting screaming that Sarah was a "shiksa whore" and so forth. Naturally, you didn't hear anything about this, but it made me von Brunn-mad. So I voted "McCain/Palin": the conservative-hater and the novelty. Lovely choices we've got here in the United States of Multistupidity.
that wasnt what she said, but the way the liberal media spun itshe's a patriotic proud American unlike the asshole you voted for.
ya... who only thinks people who share her pov are "pro america".
nutbar....
except that bullshit has been debunkedHow nice of Palin's attorney to shine a bright light on where to look...LOL

Funny what constitutes a novelty. Just completely ignore the woman's accomplishments.
And isn't Sandra Bernhard that horse-faced dyke who said that Palin should be gang-raped by her black friends?
Sarah Palin attorney warns press on 'defamatory material' - Jonathan Martin - POLITICO.comIn an extraordinary four-page letter, Alaska-based attorney Thomas Van Flein warns of severe consequences should speculation that until now has largely been confined to blogs about whether Palin embezzled funds in the construction of a Wasilla, Alaska, sports arena find its way into print.
I haven't stopped laughing at Republicans since McCain suspended his campaign to "fix" the bank bailout bill.

This whole thing is being pulled around in every direction, as to what it means. I think it is political, to the point that there is a big scandal coming down and leaving office is better than being removed. "I quit" looks just a smidge better than "I was impeached" on a resume.
It's a page from the Nixon handbook.
