The Palin Facebook Doctrine
When Dick Cheney pops up like a whack-a-mole on Cialis, and you can bet Palin won't be far behind. The Underwear Bomber and President Obama's response needed a special Palin edition

While the DOJ is making a point to review Republican corruption cases, like Ted Stevens, not one Democrat case has been completely overturned.
Do you really want a senator who has received more money from the telecoms than any other member of Congress determining the future of the Internet?
In the last few weeks, Republicans have put a new twist on their campaign of never ending fear. Now the Republicans are trying to scare Democrats into thinking that 2010 will be another 1994.
Why has Eric Holder's Justice Department left Paul Minor, Judges Walter Teel and John Whitfield languishing in jail?
In the Muslim world, more important than freedom and democracy is tribe and religion. We are not going to teach warlords to like democracy and grow wheat instead of poppies.
The "Tea Party" movement flies in the face of what the true patriots in Boston stood for. Corporate lobbying-run groups are creating the illusion of grass roots protests at the health care town hall meetings.
Prosecutors are the most powerful actors in our criminal justice system. Failure to respond to abuses of power is an enormous threat to public safety and to the integrity of our criminal justice system.
When it comes to taking responsibility for her failures, Sarah Palin is completely unaccountable. Her finger is always pointed at the most convenient scapegoat.
If you haven't seen this before, it's because the image, like Palin herself, is radioactive.
Sarah's resignation confirms what her values actually are by defining what is most important to her. Governor Palin is going to keep as much of her newfound money as she can.
This new evidence of misconduct should compel Attorney General Holder to review Minor's case and immediately release him from prison.
It is time to right the wrongs committed by the overzealous, partisan U.S. attorneys who brought shame and disgrace to the Justice Department under George W. Bush.
Prosecutors have power. They have been given that power in part to effectively ensure public safety. Yet, everyday in courtrooms across the country, prosecutors are abusing their powers.
Whether it's Ted Stevens, Rush Limbaugh or Ann Coulter (OK, maybe not Coulter) the law is the law and we should celebrate when justice is served. Even if that means that the guilty walk.
Senator Ted Stevens has become the latest symbol of how things worked at the Justice Department in the Bush administration.
I think Mr. Stevens should wait as least as long as the interned Japanese during WWII did for their apology.
Ted Stevens never should have been prosecuted in 2008. Traditional media has done a pitiful job covering the many political prosecution stories that occurred during the Ashcroft/Gonzales years.
"In the interest of justice." That says it all. I only hope from this point on everyone in the law enforcement system of the United States remember those five words as their singular mission.
Many of the people who will praise Mr. Holder for dropping the charges against Mr. Stevens won't care that the same kind of misconduct routinely taints the trials of those who are not "connected."
