BREAKING: Palin's HUSBAND to be subpoenaed in trooper firing

[Bluebear]

along with "a dozen other aides"....

http://politicalticker.blogs.cnn.com/2008/09/12/investigator-wants-subpoena-for-palins-husband/

the only thing that has dented Ike coverage on CNN.

1. The man sits in on official meetings and is copied on state e-mails.

I don't know why this isn't a bigger concern. Awesome.

[radfringe]

5. there's like 1,100 emails

being hidden as "excutive priviledge" that have his name on it

HOWEVER, since 'first dude' is not an offcial state position, and 'first dude' is a private citizen - those emails cannot be squashed

[DemoTex]

26. "Res Publica"

A concept that is totally foreign to the GOP.

[LiberalHeart]

2. CNN: "inside baseball" and more details than we want to know? WTF?

Maybe the public would like to know about that inside baseball stuff. You know: the STORY. Geez.

Edited to add: the anchor even dismissed those details as family stuff, so I guess that's out of the "family off limits" meme.

4. What I want to know is: did he wear lipstick or not.

Fuck that other boring stuff.

:sarcasm:

[Bluebear]

6. In what respect, deutsey?

[deutsey]

8. Ooooh, wouldn't you like to know?

[LiberalHeart]

12. We knew he wore it. I just want to know what shade it was.

[deutsey]

15. Sigh. Can't you see that the shade of lipstick is a Rovian distraction?

:evilgrin:

[LiberalHeart]

19. Are you saying he wears the same shade Rove does?

[deutsey]

20. Well, that goes without saying. Rove is a pig, after all.

[LiberalHeart]

21. I think he's more of an ass, but I defer to your judgment. Maybe he's mixed.

[President_Obama]

3. what say you, concerned masses of DU? is this worthy of pursuing or just another 'trap'?

Troopergate's gonna get her despite your concern!

[Greg K]

7. absolutely..

and if McCain/Palin somehow win, I want Congress to take it up immediately.

[TwilightGardener]

9. He shouldn't have been receiving official state emails. He is not an elected official.

End of story. This should be a big red flag about his involvement, not just in Troopergate, but in the state's affairs.

[Fluffdaddy]

16. She's not dropping out, if that's what you hoping for.

[President_Obama]

24. why would we want her to drop out when she can take McCain down with her?

[gblady]

10. "First Dude"

has had me seeing red flags since Day 1...

:rofl: :popcorn: :rofl:

[Bluebear]

11. You said it!!

[nc4bo]

13. Good. nt

[butterfly77]

I have been waiting to see...

what would come out on the husband we haven't heard a peep out of him yet..

[CatWoman]

14. got any good zingers for me today?

I need some cheering up :)

[Bluebear]

18. Nothing yet, but . . .

:hug:

[AlCzervik]

17. Jeff Gilooly!

[codjh9]

22. A W E S O M E ! ! ! Best news I've heard all day!

[Alizaryn]

23. What are the odds of this actually going through?

[ClarkUSA]

25. Miss Piggy's/Grandpa Simpson's legal team has been working hard to prevent any subpoenas

So far, they haven't been successful. But the arm-twisting in Alaska continues.

[nichomachus]

27. Is there a campaign poster with that one it??

O Jayzuz -- please say there is? I would walk around with that taped to my back

[ClarkUSA]

29. ROFL!

I'll bet that's a T-shirt many of us would love to buy. ;)

[madrchsod]

28. unpaid advisor?... wait a minute

they are fucking each other so it`s ok....politics is pornography

[brettdale]

30. The story will die though

Because the media will get the memo.

[ColbertWatcher]

31. Could that be another reason why she went to Alaska (besides the kid thing)? n/t
