I know I've heard that voice and speaking style before. It was back in the early 80's when the movie came out called "Valley Girl", which had a whole bunch of unique and dumb sounding sayings.
This is EXACTLY what Sarah sounds like with all that "you betcha, joe six pack, et al", and that utterly stupid looking winking, along with those dorky sounding voice inflections. Palin is trying to be cute and folksy, but she is instead sounding like an absolute dork. "Gag me with a spoon, gosh darn it."

Sarah Palin hasn't even been elected yet and we have her disgraceful behavior being covered up already. If only the Democrats could learn to do that the way the repugs have.

her seamy little 'vendetta' to 'GET' the Alaska trooper by any means necessary illustrates just how much Palin is a true "Richard Nixon" Republican, except of course Tricky Dick wasn't unqualified for his job.

Elect Another Republican ?

Are You Insane ?

Obama tried to sway Iraqis on Bush deal
In private conversations on troop presence, candidate pitched delay

At the same time the Bush administration was negotiating a still elusive agreement to keep the U.S. military in Iraq, Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama tried to convince Iraqi leaders in private conversations that the president shouldn't be allowed to enact the deal without congressional approval.

Mr. Obama's conversations with the Iraqi leaders, confirmed to The Washington Times by his campaign aides, began just two weeks after he clinched the Democratic presidential nomination in June and stirred controversy over the appropriateness of a White House candidate's contacts with foreign governments while the sitting president is conducting a war.

Some of the specifics of the conversations remain the subject of dispute. Iraqi leaders purported to The Times that Mr. Obama urged Baghdad to delay an agreement with Mr. Bush until next year when a new president will be in office - a charge the Democratic campaign denies.

Lets see, we have a former member of the Chicago new party and know socialist party who has close connections with known and admitted terrorists.
We have one of the biggest voter fraud investigations in history going on.
We have a presidential candidate who has close ties to a convicted felon with whom he has done a very suspicious and questionable real estate deal with.
We have a presidential candidate with known and admitted ties to an America hater and bigoted reverend, as well as close ties to Louis Farrakhan.

Yet none of these issues are addressed by this paper, instead they are concentrating on a politically motivated investigation into Sarah Palin which is unlikely to demonstrate any wrongdoing on her part.

Thanks for the bias newsrag, and thanks for throwing all journalistic principles and integrity out the door.

We do not! Our accent is flatter, more like Charlie Giubson or Tom Brokaw. And we're more terse: we don't natter on and on, we say "Ayup" or "Nope" or "Can't help ya" and walk away from the tourists.

ACORN isn't a bigger story because ACORN had reported illegal voter signups to the Nevada Election Committee before it was "raided" by Nevada State Police. The very fact that no charges have been filed should tell you the "raid" was a political stunt.

All voter registration drives have to check laws state by state, for each state has different laws. Citizens also like to mess up voting drives by signing false names, just to tick off outsiders.

As for socialism, Republicans just voted to socialize Wall Street, proving capitalism and The Sacred Market as a lie the rich foisted upon America so they could loot the country and stick it with the bill.

Vote Republican?

Are you insane?

McCain is applying the same tactic he used in The Keating five scandal and The Paris Talks.

Because experts have already stated that voter Fraud hardly exists, and that even though many can "Try" almost none are actually registered, most voter fraud stories by fox are just fear mongering tactics to stir up the ratings.

You can cry wolf all day it doesn't make it true.
Then again Voter Purges, thats a completely different story. This has been seen on going for a very long time and is against federal law. Denying some people thier right to vote is unconstitutional tips the scales in whichever parties favor. Get your facts straight before you cry wolf I'm sick of it.

[Tim John]

This story is WRONG anyway, they will be releasing Palin's findings to her investigation today.

http://www.usatoday.com/news/politics/electio...

The short hold on her findings has been lifted, she has tried to talk down the findings. I wonder why?

[Jkjkhardcore]

Thanks for wasting my time for a blind post. Yeah if I was a moron I would think he meant "Skin cancer doesn't go away" but it is stated in Context McCain has skin cancer a disease that doesn't just go away. Meaning that it's a serious health problem which is true.
So either your supporting this dude ed or your just doing offtopic nonsense.
