Olbermann was wondering last night if Palin could be a Democratic Party operative, she's that bad for the McCain ticket.

(Not in a partisan way. I'm not offended by it, I'm in flipping hysterics. And I'm not about to blame McCain for it, either.) There are just so many things wrong with this, including the droll notion that an Obama victory will somehow give greater credence to rival gods, including Allah, Hindu (sic) and Buddha (also sic).

So, here's the thing - in the event that Obama wins, I can't wait to hear what Reverend Arnold has to say to Yahweh about it.

I honestly expect to hear other ministers and religious leaders distance themselves from this one, as it's so transparently dippy.

Okay, that's all.

WOW! Just WOW!

Dear God, can we talk about your reputation? People are talking smack about you behind your back. You need to watch yourself for our sakes. Get a CLUE, God!

I did really love the pantheistic view and acknowledgment that other gods exist - and that they may be more powerful.

In other words... He committed blasphemy (in the eyes of his religion).

Palin has checkered history on ethics issues
By BRETT J. BLACKLEDGE and JUSTIN PRITCHARD, Associated Press Writers

ANCHORAGE, Alaska - Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin, whose reformer image took a hit in a report concluding she abused her powers to settle a family score, has skirted state ethics rules before for personal benefit and used her office to help friends and supporters, according to an Associated Press review of records.

Palin's first try at statewide office, after six years as mayor of Wasilla, was an unsuccessful run for lieutenant governor in 2002. To raise money, she improperly used her City Hall office and equipment, city records show. A year later she would make headlines by blasting a fellow Republican for, among other things, improperly using his government position to boost his campaign.

Then, in 2006, Palin won the governor's race with a vow to reform state ethics. But in less than two years, she has repeatedly taken actions that violated her own stated standards for ethical behavior — if not state law. In the process, the Republican vice presidential nominee has become much like the old-school politicians she attacked during her rise to power.

Some examples:

_She pummeled opponents for giving oil companies and other businesses too much control of state government. Yet she appointed the founder of an engineering firm that received $6.8 million in state business as head of the transportation department.

_She has accepted dozens of gifts worth tens of thousands of dollars since taking office, including two free trips last year that she failed to report on disclosure forms, despite criticizing state legislators for the gifts they take.

_She is under another investigation, accused of misusing her office to campaign against a voter referendum calling for tighter mining regulations. Her husband, Todd, has accepted free trips from a mining company to look at their proposed new site.

_Another ethics complaint, unresolved, accuses her staff of finding a state job for a friend and campaign contributor.

Why does it seem that Mr. Palin has as many fingers in pies as does Mrs.?

I can't find the link at the moment to the story for verification, but apprarently, whilst Mayor of Wasilla, the Palin family home was built for free by the same contractors who built the local stadium/sports center.

Both Palins have trouble separating the personal and the professional, as in Troopergate.

Because life happens.

He made it.
After a high-flying adventure, Senator John McCain finally sat down next to David Letterman on the set of “The Late Show” on Thursday and offered his mea culpa: “I screwed up.”

I think it's pretty cool that he showed up on the show.
