25. She "cleared" herself. I bet John Travolta wishes he had a "clear" button. Like a calculator.
*click* There. I'm clear.

49. Wow
"Beyond the potential political consequences, the Legislature’s inquiry, depending on its outcome, could lead lawmakers to censure Ms. Palin or pass legislation making it more difficult for a governor to remove a commissioner, legislative leaders said."

Censure would be good. I'd like a censure, please....

2. The Palin shit hitting the Troopergate fan?
It explains why the repigs were so desperate to cart out an old debunked Obama story as new news. They grasped at ANYTHING to block the Troopergate news.

5. Considering the markets in Europe and Asia ain't looking too good right now
I suspect another "Black Friday" on Wall Street is going to preempt any breaking news coming from the Frozen Wilderness of Wasilla.

but I do think it's safe to say that the so called bailout was pointless, right about now.

52. Bailout was a long-term plan
Paulson said that he could only spend about $50 billion per month. So that's 14 months to complete the program. Also, he said in a press briefing yesterday that the program is still several weeks away from being started. It's meant to be a long-term help to the economy in order to limit the economic damage to just a deep recession next year instead of a much deeper depression. By the time this is all over with, $700 billion will seem like a drop in the bucket.

50. Which begs the question:
Edited on Fri Oct-10-08 03:30 AM by XemaSab
If 10% in a day is the cutoff point, what happens if instead it's a 9% drop for 10 consecutive days, or a 60% collapse of the entire market over 2 weeks? :shrug:

8. Even Bush is talking tomorrow
You know he's trying to distract as well.

The report findings must be HUGE.

Really, I'm starting to think Palin will have to step down.

28. I doubt it
No matter how damning, the probe will be dismissed as a 'politically-motivated witch hunt' and will largely be ignored by the media.

I do hope that you are right and I am wrong!

51. The panel that voted unanimously for the investigation consisted of 10 Reps and 4 Dems
Edited on Fri Oct-10-08 03:38 AM by CakeGrrl
according to the AK legislature representative who was on Rachel Maddow Thursday night.

They can cry 'witch hunt' all they want, but the facts persist. Never mind Palin backtracking on her promise to comply with the investigation before she was selected as McCain's running mate.

31. she can't step down. McCain is stuck with her till the bitter end.
if he dumps her...he's back to 'crowds' of hundreds. She is the ONLY reason people are turning out and they all know it. it appears that SHE is running the campaign now and McCain is only along for the ride.

10. Yes. Troopergate will be bad news for Grumpy. The markets will close badly.
And his "buy all the bad mortgages" plan has been panned.

Then its up to us to spread the news if there are other stories that get out on top of this one
we all need to email it to everyone we know (that is if it does indeed find her at fault).

I'm shocked, shocked, I say, to find out what a big, fat liar this woman is ....:eyes:

I'm mean, I've only heard her lie repeatedly - over and over and over again already.


The clueless will continue to ignore reality. Why would they start paying attention now?

Powerful governor + A state over run with Repukes + rich tradition of corruption = a whitewash.

No way she faces any consequences.
