It just hit me. EugeneDebs Eugene v. Debs It's been bugging me for months, because I knew that it sounded familiar. It was a famous Sedition case from the early 1920s, in which a political activist was jailed for denouncing militarism, and the Supreme Court upheld it. I find this interesting in light of the threat of lawsuit, as both this case and this threat are in direct contradiction to the First Amendment protections. So tell me, Eugene - did you mean to do that, or is it a coincidence? AH!! It just hit me.

But speculating on television that someone is being investigated by the FBI when you don't have an ounce of confirmation about such a thing is the height of irresponsible journalism, and one more example of how horrible the mainstream press has gotten. Woodward and Bernstein had to source everything before publishing accusations about Nixon. Today, all you need is one clown guessing and another clown doubting, and that's all the "balance" that's required. The dingbat from Wasilla doesn't have a valid lawsuit - but she's right about this one. You don't report something like that when you're frigging guessing. That's not journalism.

When oh when are we gonna see the last of this woman. I almost hope that she would run for President. She would be chewed up and spit out just like a bad piece of Alaskan jerky.

They can make more money for the next 3 years doing speeches, writing books, interviews and so on. On the whole, I think this resignation was a financial decision so that she and her husband can grab millions of dollars rather than seriously campaign for an office. The millions of dollars would leave her and the family very well off. I think you are overlooking Palin and her husband’s greed.
