Sarah Palin has been governor for such a short time that she’s only got a few dozen scandals to her name, and the one America loves best is called “Troopergate,” because, hey, -gate!
Troopergate involves Palin being a crazy white-trash nut who somehow becomes governor (of Alaska, but still!) and then weirdly fires the state’s Public Safety Commissioner (because he wanted to limit the humiliation of rape victims, who totally deserved it) and then she also got a state trooper fired, because said trooper had once been married to Palin’s sister. Probably somebody stole somebody’s pot plants, too. These people, good lord. Anyway, the judge says the investigation will continue. PRISON FOR PALIN. [Anchorage Daily News]
How could America’s Sweetheart Hockey Mom be involved in such tomfoolery. Clearly Biden’s behind it because he’s ya know in the tank for Obama.
Has she tried winking at the judge?
Jesus, can we fit another judge in this tank? We’re running out of room, here!!!
Tomorrow’s headline, “Palin fires Branchflower, Hires Judge Bork to conduct investigation.”
Not pot plants. She’s from Wasilla, they’re on the meth up there.
Say it ain’t so, Sarah! You trollopy-meth-cunt…
Formerly Preferred: Winking won’t do it this time. She’ll have to uncross then recross her legs ala Sharon Stone in “Basic Instinct”.

That’s pretty much all you need to know about Palin’s legal team.
Krauthammer is totally in the tank now. That tank has got to be getting kind of gamey.

Ha ha. Idiot doesn’t know how Hail Mary passes work. You don’t get three per game, Chuck, it’s one, max.
I thought she did great in the debate last night… I’m definitely supporting her for Vice President of the PTA.
dano: Or like what Kathleen Turner did in ‘Serial Mom’
I hate to pick but the trooper didn’t get fired
Johnny Zhivago: She showed a clear knowledge of cliches and a facility with vague generalizations. That has “ready to lead” written all over it. As in “ready to lead a half-dozen pink miniature poodles at the circus.”
Mad props (that’s how the kids are phrasing it these days, isn’t it?) to this chart-climber with a bullet:

Wouldn’t it be ironic if a Troopergate-related lawsuit eventually reaches the US Supreme Court? At least then, she’d have an answer for Katie’s super-duper tough questions.
Can’t wait to see how Dickless Nixon squirms out of this one. I hear wedding bells for a knocked up teen…
Lazy Media: Looks as if Kraut forgot to drink his Palin-Aid!
Lazy Media: There’s also this:
McCain threw blind into the end zone to a waiting Sarah Palin. She caught the ball. Her subsequent fumbles have taken the sheen off of that play…
Geeze. At least when George Will talks about baseball, he shows an understanding of the game. I think Krauthammer’s gridiron knowledge comes from Jethro’s Folksy Metaphor Dictionary.
ThePuckStopsHere: well i couldn’t really say mr. clark but it does have a good beat and you can dance to it!
Between this and the Ted Stevens trial narrowly escaping being dismissed due to the prosecutors forgetting to produce documents in discovery, it’s not a good day for Alaska Republican politicians… lol wut?
Somebody forgot to slip him the Alaskan Chalupa, if you know what I mean….and I think that you do.
Betcha she just refuses to answer the questions the investigation asks of her. A tactic that has fueled her newly found soaring credibility.
PS: Glad to see that teh Khristianz have such a keen interest in whether the investigation goes forward!
The Texas-based Liberty Legal Institute, which helped represent the five Alaska Republican legislators who sued to stop the investigation, said that it planned to appeal to the Alaska Supreme Court. … The Liberty Legal Institute said Thursday’s ruling is a dangerous decision and declared that “Judge Michalski is the same judge who ruled in 1998 that same-sex marriage is a fundamental right, a decision subsequently overruled by a constitutional amendment approved by the voters of Alaska.”
Liberty is the legal arm of the Free Market Foundation, which is associated with evangelical leader James Dobson’s Focus on the Family, and lists its guiding principles as limited government and promotion of Judeo-Christian values.
if Palin goes to prison, it’ll be a great chance for her to get those lip tattoos finished…
SayItWithWookies: Srsly. Guy has no excuse; football is part of the state religion of DC. What really happened is that Walnuts, like any good Navy qb, audibled to the option, rode the dive fake really well to Mittens, who was tackled by half the press corps, froze the end with a wiggle and pitched to Palin, who tiptoed down the sideline for a first down at the 18. But he’s right that the drive stalled due to a series of fumbles and stupid penalties.
ah well, new career opportunities are presenting themselves.

Back home they’re celebrating the Killa from Wasilla’s massive WIN.

Cape Clod: I don’t remember! *pew* *pew* *wink*
Troopergate should end. If it continues, it only tells people that Palin has executive experience.
SayItWithWookies: You’re right. You can’t ‘Fumble’ after you’ve caught a ‘Pass’ in the end zone. That’s called a ‘Touchdown.’ But then again we’re talking about ‘Krauthammer’, and he’s a ‘Fucking’ ‘Moron’.
Lazy Media: Haha:
Oliver Wendell Holmes Jr. famously said of Franklin Roosevelt that he had a “second-class intellect, but a first-class temperament.” Obama has shown that he is a man of limited experience, questionable convictions, deeply troubling associations (Jeremiah Wright, William Ayers, Tony Rezko) and an alarming lack of self-definition — do you really know who he is and what he believes? Nonetheless, he’s got both a first-class intellect and a first-class temperament. That will likely be enough to make him president.
What a way with backhanded compliments!
Doesn’t Sarah’s ex-trooper in law still have his job? I don’t think he got fired.
shortsshortsshorts: Yes, Cheney-esque executive experience.
Say it ain’t so, Alaska with the finger-pointing and the looking backwards, you betcha.
“Dontcha know I’m not actually answering your questions, and I say ‘also’ every third word, also, but, ya know, I’m gonna just continue to say nothing in run on sentences and butcher the english language until ‘ya put those darn subpoenas away so I can be mavericky and also a maverick.”

Does anyone know where I can get one of those “McFailin” signs they were waving behind Chris Matthews last night? Or at least a .jpg for ‘puter wallpaper…
Now that I’ve moderated my drinking enough to take the occasional hit of crystal meth and alternate that with some crack and a speedball every so often, I imagine I’ll be able to make it to the polls in 2012 to vote for the Sarah Palin/ Kitty Harris ticket.
Let’s see how that folksy nonsense pablum works in a Supermax prison when you’re trying to fight off the bull dykes with a shiv in the lunch room, Sarah. I don’t have high hopes for any bon mots about “Thanks but no thanks to the bridge to nowhere”.

And the case is becoming more interesting: http://mudflats.wordpress.com/2008/09/29/troopergate-witness-flips-like-a-pancake/
Apparently Ms. Moose and First Dude may be directly implicated in attempting to have the vile trooper’s workman’s comp denied.
Remember, it’s usually the cover-up that gets the miscreant in real trouble. I’m hoping that the whole McCain criminal organization gets tangled up in this.
October 10th!
Palin could lose the election and lose her governorship in the span of a few short weeks! She will go from PTA president to Prison Trustee in almost record time!!
bentcorner: Yes, the ex-in-law is stil in the law, it was his boss that was fired… over fiscal matters…. you know, he had just ONE too many employees on his staff….
