Lounge of Tomorrow - All About McCain

Republican vice presidential nominee Sarah Palin abused her power as Alaska's governor by trying to get her ex-brother-in-law fired from the state police, a state investigator's report concluded Friday."Gov. Palin knowingly permitted a situation to continue where impermissible pressure was placed on several subordinates in order to advance a personal agenda," the report states.
Public Safety Commissioner Walt Monegan's refusal to fire State Trooper Mike Wooten from the state police force was "likely a contributing factor" to Monegan's July dismissal, but Palin had the authority as governor to fire him, the report by former Anchorage prosecutor Stephen Branchflower states.

But...but....she already cleared herself of this yesterday!

Palin issued a statement clearing and exonerating herself of any and all wrongdoing, therefore she’s cleared and exonerated, right? Pardoned by the governor of Alaska, right?

I suggest we all adopt her MO. So when the hubbo launches an investigation of just what happened to that half bag of chocolate chips that I secretly ate, I will clear, exonerate, and pardon myself.

Oh, I can't wait to pardon myself for a number of things. I'm gonna start making a list.

McCain is now trying a kinder, gentler campaign. Too bad he's already courted all of the country's ignorant hate mongers to support him, they don't seem happy about the turn of events:

Wait, I just noticed this:

Quote:

McCain himself drew boos at a town-hall meeting Friday in Minnesota when he defended Obama after a supporter said he feared what would happen if Obama were elected president. He also cut short a woman who said Obama was an Arab, and he called his rival "a decent, family man."

As if A) "Arab" is an insult, and B) "decent family man" is the opposite of Arab. :mad:

Oh, geez....I have made my disdain of McCain clear, but that's ridicuous, GD. He stops a woman from saying something false about Obama and says he's a decent guy. Of course he wasn't saying anything close to that being an Arab means you can't be a decent family man.

Sheesh.
