Palin's History Of Lies

Filed under: Politik > Sarah Palin

what-money.jpg

Seems like consistency is not really Sexy Sarah's forte.

The Associated Press is reporting that the Republican Veep candidate has a sordid history of cafeteria ethics.

To make a long rap sheet short, while Palin's criticized other politicians for shady business, some good house cleaning has revealed a few skeletons in her own closet.

She's taken trips on the city's tab, utilized office resources to fundraise, accepted money without disclosing it, and in an upsetting abuse of power, pressured the state public safety commissioner to fire her sister's state trooper ex-husband.

The ex-husband was never fired, but the commissioner was.

Democratic state Representative Beth Kerttula admitted that she's frightened of Palin because "It's all about the power" and "She doesn't seem to know where the boundaries are."

There might be a bully behind that precious winking smile.

Ciritics have to agree that Palin has actually done a little ethical straightening up in office, by tightening up state ethics laws, providing more information to taxpayers about state spending, restrictions on lobbyists' giving, increased disclosure requirements for public officials, and posting state spending details on the Internet.

And while we're not saying that other politicians are clean as a whistle (Because hey, this is politics), we're suspicious of Sexy Sarah's reluctance to own up to some of her indisceretions.

-Although she's criticized other politicians for giving companies too much government control, she appointed the founder of an engineering firm to head of transportation

-She's helped friends and contributors land state jobs

-She's accused of misusing office resources to campaign against a voter referendum for tighter mining regulations, while her husband Todd, accepted a free trip from a mining company to view new site proposals

Democratic state Representative Mike Doogan said her flighty ethics are "insulting to those of us who have always done the right thing."

It's insulting to the rest of us too!

What, does she think we're so dumb we wouldn't notice?

  7. 107

    At this point who is taking this woman seriously? Even Republicans are commenting about her ridiculous she is. THe Alaska Daily News had an editorial regarding her response to her being found guilty of abuse of power

    "Sarah Palin's reaction to the Legislature's Troopergate report is an embarrassment to Alaskans and the nation. She claims the report "vindicates" her. She said that the investigation found "no unlawful or unethical activity on my part." Her response is either astoundingly ignorant or downright Orwellian".

    Lastly, if Palin wants to say obama pals around w/ terrorists via guilt by association then she is JUST AS GUILTY! SHe ASSOCIATED HERSELF w/ this party JUST LAST YEAR! THIS IS LAST YEAR AND SHE KNOWS THEIR AGENDA! SO, if Barack is Un-American and palling around w/ Terrorists PALIN is too!

    Re: vengance – I agree w/ everything I've read from you. Just thought I'd share. I also think it's the dumbest thing I've ever heard for Obama to give tax breaks to only the people who need it. That's nice, punish the successful who were determined to further their education to make this world a better place; which in turn made them have more money. Obama has a fucked up mind set and it scares me that he's rather close to being our next leader. And does it happen to bother anyone else how Obama talks? He sounds like one of those dramatic preachers… it's annoying; just saying. And b/4 any of you get started… NO, I'm not a racist!!! Republicans, vote!

    Re: vengance
    Support Palin all you want it's ok and spin it and say it's okay to welcome a group with open arms that was being sponsored by Iran to help Alaska to secede from this union and gain support from the UN. How very American of her. She knows the group and what they stand for and she knows what her husband dabbles in and if you believe she wasn't a part of that group keep burying your head in the sand. You choose to overlook her actions fine, but then don't hold barack to that standar if you are not going to hold Sarah to the same.



  18. 118

    Oh Perez, can you shut your piehole already? I'm not voting for her, I'm voting for McC. And let's see about Obama:1-Started his career in the home of an unrepentant bomber!; 2-Bought the house next to his from his pal, a now convicted felon; 3-Sat in the pews for 20 years of a preacher who spewed hatred for the USA and, probably, whitey; 4-His connections to Acorn; 5-His connections to a terrorist group in Kenya. America will be very sorry that for this election, character does not seem to count.

    She's JUST a politician. No different than Oprabama being buddy buddy with a pedifile…..

    "For seven years, the presidential candidate had a "father-son" relationship with Frank Marshall Davis, who has confessed to having sex with children, sadomasochism, bondage and practicing a wide array of deviant sexual activities.

    In his 1995 memoir Dreams from My Father, Obama identifies his childhood mentor only as "Frank," but Obama insiders later confirmed he was referring to Davis, a journalist and poet who was a pal of Obama's maternal grandfather, Stanley Dunham."

    Re: Smirks – nope, and it's bad generalize. I know that, but many of them are like that. I do believe in personal wealth as well. I studied hard to achieve whatever I have achieved and that does not make me an evil person. But I don't believe you can buy emotions or hurting others on my benefit. Like I couldn't sleep at night by doing so. I do believe that when I turn my back and say it's not my problem deal with it I am doing something wrong. It's just so different from the way I have been raised. These people are peculiar, they are sneaky and in order to get conservative support they portrait something they are far away to be. I was really young by then, and remember the whole trip was just a situation were that person wanted to show me off as his pattern but just cause he needed, not because he loved me or something alike. I saw the same pattern in many other fucked up relationships of the people around this peculiar person. Of course you will see the opportunistic who would make heaven out of a relationship like this but not my case, not my style, not my beliefs. And I state again, those people (in the majority) have big self hatred issues and are not good people. If you consider that smart, then for my own good I rather to be very very very dumb.

    First and foremost, Good afternoon!! I said good morning on another thread.
    You asked a question and I answered it. As for what your saying Haven't I always said ISSUES ISSUES ISSUES not Personal lives? You know that has ALWAYS been my mantra. If we had to hold politicians morally and ethically responsable to do a job we'd have to get rid of 99.9% of gov't!
    I believe I probably said that 50x on this site ;)
    So if pple are going to crucify barack on Ayers I will keep it fair and crucify Palin on the AIP and her guilt by association. It is only fair.

We found a house but I refuse to buy until we both unload our homes.

    Biden routes campaign cash to family, their firms
    Jim McElhatton

    Democratic vice-presidential candidate Sen. Joseph R. Biden Jr. has paid more than $2 million in campaign cash to his family members, their businesses and employers over the years, a practice that watchdogs criticize as rife with potential conflicts of interest.

    The money largely flowed from the coffers of Mr. Biden's failed presidential campaign during the past two years to a company that employs his sister and longtime campaign manager, Valerie Biden Owens, according to campaign disclosure filings.

    The senator from Delaware also directed campaign legal work to a Washington lobbying and law firm founded by his son R. Hunter Biden, the disclosures show.

    Re: MINXLIVES – Aww… well… pre-congratulations on the wedding! Ya, tonight should be interesitng. If McCain doesn't pull it out, Obama will win. I say, w/e. In any case it will be an interesitng four years. Regardless of who wins I am convinced it will be a 4-year presidency.

    Judicial Watch uncovered evidence of a $100,000 grant obtained by Obama for a garden project in Englewood, Illinois, spearheaded by Obama’s former campaign volunteer Kenny Smith. The “Englewood Botanical Garden” project never happened. In fact, according to the Chicago Sun Times, “today the garden site is a mess of weeds, chunks of concrete and garbage.” State records show that $65,000 of the grant money obtained by Obama went directly to Smith’s wife Karen. Smith also wrote an additional $20,000 check to a construction company owned by Karen D. Smith, K.D. Contractors which is no longer in business.



  61. 161

    Barack Obama helped secure a $25,000 grant for the Blue Gargoyle in August 2000, an organization that was headed by Capers C. Funnye, Jr., Michelle Obama’s first cousin once removed.



  62. 162

    In July, 2000, Obama helped secure a $100,000 grant for the Community of St. Sabina, a church headed by Father Michael Pfleger, a controversial and radical Catholic priest and Obama campaign contributor. Pfleger made news in March, 2008, for mocking then-presidential candidate Hillary Clinton from the pulpit of Trinity United Church of Christ, formerly run by Obama’s personal pastor the Reverend Jeremiah Wright.



  63. 163

    Run by Yesse Yehudah, Barack Obama gave a $75,000 grant to the organization in 2000. Although Yehudah ran against Obama in a 1998 election, five people from FORUM donated $1000 to Obama’s campaign after receiving the grant. FORUM also contributed another $5,000 to help pay Obama’s debt after failing to be elected to congress in 2000. In 2002, the State sued Yehudah for failure to account for hundreds of thousands of dollars he received from Obama’s grant.

  65. 165

    Judicial Watch, the public interest group that investigates and prosecutes government corruption, announced today that it has obtained documents detailing earmarks submitted by Barack Obama on behalf of his family and political supporters during his time in the Illinois State Senate. The documents were obtained under the Illinois Freedom of Information Act. Among the projects detailed in the documents uncovered by Judicial Watch:



  66. 166

    Antoin Rezko, a once-powerful fund-raiser who helped propel the career of Senator Barack Obama, was found guilty on Wednesday by a federal jury of 16 counts, including fraud, money laundering and bribery in an influence-peddling scheme that touched the highest levels of the administration of Gov. Rod R. Blagojevich of Illinois.



  67. 167

    The Obama campaign has shattered all fund-raising records, raking in $458 million so far, with about half the bounty coming from donors who contribute $200 or less. what does that mean…it means he doesn't have to disclose who it came from…..and only has to return it if it is investigated…. Consider the cases of Obama donors "Doodad Pro" of Nunda, N.Y., who gave $17,130, and "Good Will" of Austin, Texas, who gave more than $11,000—both in excess of the $2,300-per-person federal limit. In two recent letters to the Obama campaign, Federal Election Commission auditors flagged those (and other) donors and informed the campaign that the sums had to be returned. Neither name had ever been publicly reported because both individuals made online donations in $10 and $25 increments.
