The junior senator from New York. Use people when they can do you some good then discard them......
that the tide will soon be turning for Ms Palin. As soon as McCain is through with her and her usefulness is concluded, she's gonna be persona-non-grata and her calls won't be returned. The shoe will then be planted firmly on the other foot, so to speak. Turnabout is fair play.
Thanks Mr T for your hard work. Did you actually have to spend time in a small town. How brave. And thanks, too, for settling the question: "Is she qualified?" Wow! Look out Obama and Joe.
and definitely not a "Veronica."
Don't you realize that trashy articles like this will never persuade anyone other than those already committed to Obama, David? In fact, they'll only achieve the opposite effect -- galvinizing the right.
Seriously. Palin's image greets me one more time when I check the site in the morning and I'm out of here for good.
It sounds as though John McCain had better start watching his own back.
I'm no fan of Palin, and I am voting for Obama. Nevertheless, there is not a lot in this article, imho. Politics is never peaches and cream. Associating with real offenders once they've been indicted can be like being pulled under by a drowning man.
More to the point now is how Palin is campaigning on lie after lie. She is a lucky woman -- lucky to be governor while gushers of money flow from $100 a barrel oil. She has often been in the right place at the right time.
However, I think her timing may be bad this time around, due to the financial collapse underway.
You just don't get it. She's a distraction. You should be hammering away at McCain.
It may be surprising to some that the heart of Alaska's drug problem is Wasilla which is located in the infamous Matanuska-Susitna Valley. Over 30 years ago, I first heard of the incredibly potent Matanuska ThunderFuck strain of high mountain pot. Using imported, high quality seeds planted in the short growing season, the verrrry lonnnng days produce an amazingly strong breed of "home-grown."
So when I recently learned that Wasilla was located there, I Googled "Mat-Su Valley + Pot" and got this:
Public Safety > Division of Alaska State Troopers > Alaska Bureau of Alcohol and Drug Enforcment > Mat-Su Drug Enforcement Team
Mat-Su Drug Enforcement Team
The Mat-Su Drug Enforcement Team focuses on drug investigations within the Matanuska-Susitna region to include Palmer, Wasilla, Talkeetna, Glennallen, Valdez, and Cordova. The team is comprised of one AST sergeant, two AST investigators, one officer from the Palmer Police Department, one officer from the Wasilla Police Department, an AST Criminal Justice Technician and one soldier from National Guard Counter Drug Support Program. The Mat-Su team works closely with the local police departments and the uniformed patrol section of the Alaska State Troopers to educate, train, and support their efforts related to drug enforcement.
This team's primary enforcement duties have shifted from marijuana cultivation to the investigation of clandestine methamphetamine laboratories. However,
the Mat-Su region still comprises the bulk of marijuana related seizures throughout Alaska and has long been recognized as the primary area of marijuana cultivation and distribution in the state. ,

A lot of things make a lot more sense now. I thought I had seen that rabid, manic gleam before...you know? Have you ever watched a junkie or a coke or meth head tell the same lie over and over as if the repetition will make it believable...even though it has already been revealed to be untrue. Just keep saying it.
Google Matanuska ThunderFuck.
Not the pristine frontier town we have been led to believe. Big drug money.
Anyone who has followed Sarah Palins careen knows she's mean, she's a woman to be feared, even more so than George W. Bush, and I didn't think it could get any worse. But people, beware. If you elect John McCain, you're probably electing this woman as our next president, and you were afraid of Hillary Clinton? She's a kitten compared to this lioness queen. Be careful what you ask for, you just may get it. Go read George Orwell's "1984". If you read it, you read Sarah Palin as president.
You've gone over into Palin Derangement Syndrome. Keep it up. Each one of these articles generates a few thousand more media resentment votes for Palin.
A politician making enemies who bad-mouth them afterward?? What an unbelievable development! What's next? Professional wrestling is fake? Say it ain't so!
I realize that Sarah Palin has unleashed the venom of the left in a way few candidates can do, but this is the most pathetic attempt to smear her to date. I would think some admiration for her would be in order, but instead we get this kind of silliness. Can't you people move on from this vitriolic derangement to confronting the issues?
If she were a man or democrat -- she would be elevated for everything/anything. obama associates with racists and terrorist in his inner circle.He has no experience AND CHOSE NOT TO SERVE but has been given a pass by the media. I am voting for her for VP-- she has what it takes to put up with the horrible small minded media,govern and bring reform to Washington. Democrats and esp. liberals are all sour grapes.I am a lifelong democrat but after this election... Palin is what many American women have been waiting for and McCain needs to win to place COUNTRY FIRST.
You have to be kidding me!!! Salon, This is the best stuff you can come up with on Palin? (fact checking proved most of it false, by the way!)
It's nice to know that conservatives like myself can disagree with a liberal politician, but cede the point that the same liberal could be a good leader (Joe Lieberman). However, you liberals think ANY conservative on their way to power is Satan in the flesh.
This is why most average Americans laugh at a majority of liberals because they are such angry and immature political debaters.
Much of the initial coverage about Fort Hood turned out to be wrong. Is there anything wrong with that?
The accountability imposed by another country for the CIA's kidnapping and torture reveals much about our own.
Fox News' morning show plays to type, talking about whether Muslims in the Army should face "special debriefings"
