Conflict Over Spying Led White House to Brink

Washington Post:

A burst of ferocity stunned the room into silence. No other word for it: The vice president's attorney was shouting.

"The president doesn't want this! [1] You are not going to see the opinions. You are out . . . of . . . your . . . lane!"

Several newspaper accounts in today's newspapers outline numerous examples of Palin's leadership style as Mayor and Governor. She just might outdo Cheney as VP; another Darth Vader who will govern through intimidation, retaliation and fear.

The unknown is whether voters, particularly those Independents, will wake up and say "no way."

[Kassandra]

But isn't that what this "government" has wanted? to bring down this country any way they can?

That picture of Addington sneering looks like he's smelling something bad...mayb­e it's his upper lip!

Oh good news, the US economy is making $$$: "With White House Push, U.S. Arms Sales Rise Sharply" Oh good! more wars!

I believe Todd has been subpoenaed in the Trooper firing abuse of power scandal.

I mean, Ms. Plain surely couldn't run Alaska without the help of a strong, virile male, could she? The Christains wouldn't like it.

On Alaska blogs it is evident everybody there knows T0dd runs the government.

They call him the "shadow governor."

It's time to vet T0dd because they are a team, and he is on top.

I doubt he runs anything..­.he is a SHADOW in that he follows her the "appropriate" 3 steps behind and keeps his mouth shot. A lot like C!ndy.

[MsLiz]

Are you saying Todd is Sarah's Cheney?

OFF TOPIC. There are many more appropriate articles to post this on.

Seems that all of the first 10 amendments are in jeopardy - do you have permission to circulate this story?

[LemonMeringue]

At first I thought you wrote 10 commandments.

My instant thought was, yes, I think they are in jeopardy, because S@rah has broken several of them.

[Whinger]

The pestilence that walks in darkness, bringing death and misery to the whole world!

Cheney is to Bush, as T0dd is to S@rah.

Americans should be vetting T0dd P@lin.

T0dd is present at meetings, cc'd on emails, personally calls government employees to order them around, displaces legislators at budget meetings.

Alaskans call him the "shadow governor."

T0dd P@lin is running for vice president. Member of the AIC that says they hate America, for 7 years.

No education after high school.

S@rah is just the pretty face they put in front so the P@lins could get elected.
