in Palin Lauds Old Glory, Dares Obama to Differ on The Washington Independent
After reading it I not sure what the policy Obama is being challenged with. Too much jingoism obscuring her intent for me to tolerate and comphrend.

What I wonder is why didn't they do this in the first place? Sounds like the $700 billion was just thrown into a bottomless pit never to be seen again. Whereas nationalizing the banks gives the taxpayer a share of the action until things settle and the "loan" is returned.

She's making Cheney look like a Saint. He only wanted to empower the unitary executive. Palin wants to empower herself .

in Troopergate Report: Palin ‘Abused Her Power’ on The Washington Independent
The threats date back to when Palin's sister was getting her divorce. From the judge's ruling, he saw the threats and innuendos emanating from all members of the Palin clan as "child abuse" and so stated. I suspect there were no threats made. It's easy for a family clan to make an accusation of verbal threats and think they are safe because its us against him.

in Troopergate Report: Palin ‘Abused Her Power’ on The Washington Independent
Palin was caught red-handed abusing the public trust in pursuing a personal vendetta as governor using the executive branch, state resources and state personnel are proxies so as to keep a low profile while others did her bidding.
What people don't understand, while the investigation was initially instructed to find the truth about the firing of a state official, it uncovered the the abuse of public trust co-mingled and intertwined with the firing making it hard to ignore.

Some people require an electrical stimulus to keep their hearts beating. You need a taser wired to your brain to keep it electrically stimulated. Cause if you could think and read at the same time, you would know about the taser incident and wouldn't be making an a$$ out of yourself.

in McCain Plays It Cool, Doesn’t Change the Game on The Washington Independent
I didn't see it that way. McCain was too busy stumping and not giving the audience, local and viewer, more information. I saw him weaving around and dodging specific that I would have considered important enough to consider his campaign. Obama also weaved and dodged, but he was more of the meat and potatoes course, You got to see and smell was was going to be served.

Thanks for stating facts to substantial the current voter fraud epidemic repugs are so scared of is a figment of their rabid imagination.

in ACORN Office Raid Reflects GOP Anger at Voter Registration Drive on The Washington Independent
Got Proof? Let's see it. I'm all for voter fraud investigations, but there has to be evidence other than hearsay and word of mouth. So far, the investigations into suspected voter fraud hasn't turned up but only a few instances where fraud has been committed. That's not enough to warrant such dragnet operations. I will agree community organizers, such as ACORN, need to be regulated by city, county and state offices to ensure compliance. It's a state issue that needs to be addressed at the state level. And I seriously doubt voter fraud is going to turn this election. There's no evidence to support such a massive conspiracy.

You can't really be serious? Since when did the American public start rating their leaders on a curve? I can't believe people are giving her creditability she has neither earned or deserve.

in Latest bailout plan restores role of government’s Third Branch on The Washington Independent
Balance of Power (BoP)is what the republicans have set adrift from their party platform ever since Reagan. I suspect republicans aversion to oversight, the necessary component of BoP, is a political payoff to payoff to their big campaign donors. The current meltdown on Wall Street can't be summarized correctly without admitting lack of oversight and repeal of depression-era banking regulations were working hand-in-hand to breakdown the foundations of financial safety for the public in the financial markets.

in Only Some of Us Are Celebrating Today on The Washington Independent
The fact that Wall Street went out of their way to keep the government out of their turf so they could pursue unfettered profit is their business. They deserve to fall flat on their ass(et)s if the market turns on them.
If anyone is to blame, I would first say Congress for letting the depression-era regulations lapse without thoroughly vetting problems that would arise if the regulations were not in place. Second, I would blame the FED for letting businesses getting so large than a collapse by a single entity would cause a market collapse, recession, or depression.
The bailout of Wall Street is necessary only because those responsible to ensure the financial safety of the people of the US failed to carry out their fiduciary responsibilities in a responsible manner, caving into greed and politics.

in Pig Lipstick and Sex-Ed on The Washington Independent
Pigs vs Dogs
If Obama really wanted to stick it to Palin, all he would have had to say was just because you put lipstick on a pitbull doesn't means she's isn't a bitch. But a pig is not a dog so I'm confused as to how McCain's people could make such a mistake. Any child knows the difference. Perhaps they need more children as analysts.
