Republicans now filing a lawsuit to have the Palin Ethics Probe
thrown out. They say it smacks of "McCarthyism"!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

WHY IN HELL ARE WE (THE ENTIRE UNITED STATES) TAKING THIS C*** SITTING DOWN?

IF OBAMA HAD HAD A PREGNANT UNWED TEENAGER, HE WOULD HAVE BEEN LAUGHED OUT OF THE RACE!!!

IF OBAMA HAD SNUBBED A SUBPOENA , HE WOULD HAVE BEEN CREAMED BY THE PRESS , KARL ROVE, ETC!!!

IF OBAMA HAD BEEN SO RECKLESS IN RUNNING A TOWN/STATE, HE WOULD NEVER HAVE COME THIS FAR!!

WHAT IS F****** WRONG WITH PEOPLE? :mad:

2. Geez, what's the big deal about improperly firing someone.
I mean, the Republicans would never think it was any big deal if Hillary Clinton fired 7 travel office employees, would they?

"Investigations by the FBI and the Justice Department, the White House itself, the General Accounting Office, the House Government Reform and Oversight Committee, and the Whitewater Independent Counsel all took place over the subsequent years. Travel Office Director Billy Dale was charged with embezzlement but found not guilty at trial in 1995. First Lady Hillary Rodham Clinton gradually came under scrutiny for allegedly having played a central role in the firings and making false statements about her role in it."
wikipedia

Let's see, FBI, Justice Department, White House, GAO, House of Representatives, and Independent Counsel all investigated the travel office firings.

But one investigation into Palin? Nah, can't have it.
