		<description>Mrs. Palin wanted to play in the big leagues. The spotlight is fading but the big league rules are still there. I am sorry but the devil always gets his due! Even the Rebublicans have to pay up once in a while.</description>

Annie B. is not in favor of corruption. I am against piling on, nitpicking, ranting and raving about little or nothing,  bullying, etc.

I remain a lifelong liberal democrat that appreciates fair and/or just criticism.

		<description>Palin was wrongly characterized as being a &quot;cancer&quot;.

She is actually &quot;herpes&quot;:  she just won&#039;t go away. 

(and as much as many of us would love for her to just go away and not be seen again, the unfortunate reality is that she will not do that. Even IF she is imprisoned for ethics or corruption, she will not go away. We will be seeing and hearing about her for the rest of our lives, unfortunately. She really should consider the porn industry before she gets much older. She&#039;d make a killing off the &quot;moral majority&quot; viewers).</description>

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The neocon Republicans crucified Al Gore because they said he used a telephone in the VP offices to make political calls.

Seems that turn-around is fair play.

Palin is using government resources to advance her political career. Why should she get a free ride?&lt;/blockquote&gt;

Because we are supposed to be nice and excuse the Republicans no matter how nasty they are. They know that most of us will do just that. So, they feel free to be as big a dicks as they like.</description>

		<description>Ah, leave her alone, she&#039;s running the only socialist state in the union, while pretending to fear socialism and marxism.  It&#039;s quite a trick, considering she couldn&#039;t tell you the difference between them.  But the falling oil prices are going to make the new year the first ever where she truly has to make hard choices.  I&#039;d just hate to be a minority or needy up there now, there going to catch the blunt end of her budget cuts.</description>

Ooh, yuck. But, looking at the matter objectively, I am compelled to note that there are probably at least a million very interested, self-identified Republican males interested in obtaining a pair of her panties.

So, eBay might be just the thing…</description>

		<description>This is one of those petty things that tend to bring out the double-standards.  We have to ask ourselves if we would be just as outraged if it was a Democratic governor doing interviews to promote their political profile from the governor&#039;s office.

I remember when Al Gore had gotten into some trouble for making some campaign fund-raising phone calls from the VPs office (it was said that if he had just leaned out the window, he would have technically been &quot;outside the office&quot; and that would have been OK).

My general feeling is this.  Al Gore should not have been making campaign fund-raising calls from the Vice Presidential office.  Sarah Palin should not have been getting interviewed in the Governor&#039;s office.  But neither infraction disrupts life as we know it, and both would have best been handled with some kind of formal cease-and-desist order.  A lawsuit is overkill in this situation.  Save that sort of thing for more serious matters, like abuse of power.</description>

Sarah Palin should not have been getting interviewed in the Governor&#8217;s office.  But neither infraction disrupts life as we know it, and both would have best been handled with some kind of formal cease-and-desist order.  A lawsuit is overkill in this situation.  Save that sort of thing for more serious matters, like abuse of power.<a href="javascript:void(0)" title=""  onmouseover="window.status=''; return true" onmouseout="window.status=''; return true" onclick="ddrc_popup('http://thinkprogress.org/wp-content/plugins/dd-report-comments/report.php?c=5349902', 400, 400)"></a></p>

		<description>&lt;em&gt;sbobker Says:
And where exactly is the flipping money coming from for the all Sarah, all the time tour.&lt;/em&gt;

The taxpayers of Alaska paid for her trip to the Governor&#039;s conference.  

I don&#039;t think that Barbie Palin is going to be able to get away with charging the taxpayers of Alaska for things like staying at home and four star hotels for her children any longer.  The Alaskan legislature has already stated that they are going to look into and curb her practice of charging the taxpayer for her comfort needs.  I also suspect that they are keeping an eye on her travel and who is paying for it.</description>

		<description>#18.  If you spend enough time in &quot;the Great Land&quot; eventually you&#039;ll hear people talking about taking a trip &quot;down to America&quot;(Seattle or further) to go shopping for a couple days. The &lt;em&gt;Nome Nugget &lt;/em&gt;(newwpaper) once carried an Alaska Airlines advertisement to &quot;Come down to America this weekend&quot; for $890 roundtrip. The trip was Nome to Seattle. And to top it off many people refer to Seattle as &quot;the real capital&quot; of Alaska.  So don&#039;t be surprised by what you saw or thought.</description>
