in Palin on Running Wasilla: ‘It’s Not Rocket Science’ on The Washington Independent
"I'm reading an article from October 1996," What day in October? Do they not put the days on their newspapers?? Don't you just love it when this McGann does not put the information in her article so you can look it up for yourself? I think she is making this information up or leaving out just enough to where she won't be lying. Let me email the Frontiersman to see if they have heard of this person and if they were in their newsroom.

in Palin to Wasilla Librarian: Are You OK With Censorship? on The Washington Independent
Where is the story?? What day in December of 1996?? Any quotes from the article?? Any quotes from the library director?? Have not seen one quote from the librarian in the news. Not a very believable article!!!! How about a link so we can see for ourselves??

Are you the same individual as yesterday posting under a different name? If not, please go back and read Laura McGann's older posts. You can see she is a true journalist with educated readers following her investigations. You can pull this crap but it isn't working. Why don't you spend your time reading the constitution and making up for the Civics class you obviously slept through or didn't get thanks to George Bush.

If you bothered to keep up with the story, you would know that most people involved in Palin's character assassinations prefer not to discuss their run ins with her in fear of further retributions...she'll still governor and can make their lives miserable

in Palin, The Iron-Fist Mayor? on The Washington Independent
Because it's not news!!!! Sounds like alot of people making this stuff up, nobody's posting links to news articles or anything concrete. More like National Equirer stuff. Meanwhile mainstream media is saying that her approval rating was in the 80's. Who to believe???? Media or a friend of a friend of a friend who used to live in a state near the state that she was Governer of???

Saying her approval rating is in the 80's is a bit of a stretch, it once was but has been falling since she took office. It's like saying George Bush has an approval rating in the 80's because he did on Sept 12, 2001. It's truthy.
It is amusing to watch out-of-staters speak with authority about Alaska and its politics, probably the most entertaing aspect of this whole debacle. Alaska is its on world, and has its own rules. Why the Republicans would attach themselves to it on the national stage is both mystifying and humorous to Alaskans, but it's going to be a hell of a fun ride.
All this stuff that came out over the weekend is fluff. Wait until they start kicking over real rocks, like the Mat-Maid fiasco, or how someone goes from mayor of Wasilla to governor--a meteoric rise even by the crazy rules of Alaskan politics. Who picked up THAT check?

Sounds like she wanted to make changes, thats her job as mayor, right???? Sounds like Obama wants to do the same thing to America, yet he has never even held a position with those responsibilities before. It is common in Texas when a new mayor is elected he puts people in positions around him/her who are loyal, Oh wait , the president of the United States does the same thing!!!!! Yet when she did it, It was wrong????? LOL

The revealing part of the firings are the purported reasons: the chief tried to move up the closing hours of local bars from 5 a.m. to two a.m. after a spurt of drunk driving accidents and arrests.
Odd coincidence: Palin's husband was charged with DUI back in 1986 interesting

"[Budger083 thinks [Ms. McGann] is making this information up or leaving out just enough to where she won't be lying." Budger083 is obviously confusing Ms. McGann (a highly respected investigative reporter) for a run-of-the mill, say-anything-for-the-cause GOP shill.
