First and foremost we are all Americans and truly want what is best for our country and our children.
After winning the mayoral election in Wasilla:
'... Governing was no less contentious than campaigning, at least to begin with. Palin ended up dismissing almost all the city department heads who had been loyal to Stein, including a few who had been instrumental in getting her into politics to begin with. Some saw it as a betrayal. Stambaugh, the police chief and a member of Palin's step-aerobics class, filed a lawsuit for wrongful termination, alleging that Palin terminated him in part at the behest of the National Rifle Association, because he had opposed a concealed-gun law that the NRA supported. He eventually lost the suit. The animosity spawned some talk of a recall attempt, but eventually Palin's opponents in the city council opted for a more conciliatory route.
At some point in those fractious first days, Palin told the department heads they needed her permission to talk to reporters. "She put a gag order on those people, something that you'd expect to find in the big city, not here," says Naegele. "She flew in there like a big-city gal, which she's not. It was a strange time, and [the Frontiersman] came out very harshly against her."
Stein says that as mayor, Palin continued to inject religious beliefs into her policy at times. "She asked the library how she could go about banning books," he says, because some voters thought they had inappropriate language in them. "The librarian was aghast." That woman, Mary Ellen Baker, couldn't be reached for comment, but news reports from the time show that Palin had threatened to fire Baker for not giving "full support" to the mayor.

| | Fascist Liberals Want a Recount, Shows Cronyism & Arrogance - 445 sec
Please keep all comments and debates civil, no vulgarities, ECT...
It would be funnier if it weren't so scary.
Fascist Liberals try to steal the election from themselves.
They change the rules.
They are told the voting rules they change don't make sense and can't count.
Then they hold elections that can't count anyway, then they complain because it doesn't
count.
Then they demand a recount.
They don't want to pay for it.
Who do you think is going to be stuck holding the bag for the costs if they have a recount due to these incompetent fascist liberal clowns?
Probably the taxpayer.
Remember how the Fascist Liberals tried to steal the election in 2004?
They kept on changing the rules. They wouldn't even be done
counting one vote when they would demand another, then another... each time they demanded the rules be changed.
They demand so many counts that the chads start falling off, then they tried to blame the chance falling off on the Republicans.
Apparently the way Fascist Liberals think you win elections is to change the rules until the most corrupt Fascist Liberal leader wins.
It's not an election; it's a cheating contest.
The Liberals have a minority vote. From what I understand the majority of dead people vote Liberal.
http://www.opinionjournal.com/diary/?id=110002475
Why do you think the Fascist Liberals cater to illegal aliens and other criminals?
The Liberals are defending illegal aliens, felons, unregistered voters as if they all had the right to vote. They lobby and give bribes to voters and try to get all kinds of strange absentee ballots counted. However when it comes to American citizens that are registered voters defending our country as soldiers, do the Liberals give the same allowance for our military?
Could it be that the Fascist Liberals throughout the military vote because they don't like the military and they know the military doesn't like them?
If the Democrats are this corrupt fighting each other, just imagine what the try to pull against the Republicans. Last presidential election I think they were slashing tires to try to keep Republicans from going to the polls. I think they also fired some shots with a gun into a Republican campaign headquarters.

| | Barack Obama Mafia Cronyism? - 314 sec
Please keep all comments and debates civil, no vulgarities, ECT...
Barack Obama seems to have been doing some shady business deals that might be a form of payoff (payola). Possibly to buy influence on decision-making.
Isn't this essentially the same thing that got Duke Cunningham in trouble? How come the fascist liberal media isn't paying much attention to this, is it because the fascist liberal media has a fascist liberal media agenda? Is it because they are ignoring facts that goes against their bias?
Duke Cunningham was a good enough and honest enough person that he eventually admitted to it and gave a tearful apology for it, stepped down and agreed to face the music. Yet the fascist liberals refuse to admit their sins, instead they use diversionary tactics like making similar accusations of their opponents. So far Barack Obama has not been accusatory but neither was Duke Cunningham. At least Duke Cunningham had the honor and integrity to admit it when he was caught. It's rare that you see honor and integrity from a fascist liberal. Is Barack Obama going to show some honor and dignity?
For years Bill Clinton treated the State House and White House as a whorehouse. What did the fascist liberals say when the Republicans tried to confront Clinton about his infidelities? Did they admit it? Did they investigate it to look for the facts? No. Instead the Liberals smeared the Republicans by claiming it was a vast right wing conspiracy to smear Clinton. Clinton even came on the TV and shook his finger at us and lied by claiming it was untrue. Clinton even smeared the women that he took advantage of. Clinton inferred that Monica had mental problems the inference was that she was delusional or making the story up for our own greed. Clinton even apparently authorized an attack on OBL to draw attention away from his impeachment. For months prior to the impeachment the fascist Liberals said people shouldn't be so partisan and should vote across party lines on the impeachment; yet when it came down to the vote the Democrats were unanimous partisan, it was only the Republicans that had a nonpartisan vote.
The fact that the Clinton regime had previously turned down peacefully taking custody OBL from another country without firing a single bullet or dropping a single bomb; on the eve of his impeachment he decided make a sneak attack against a relatively peaceful nation. Clinton's infidelities, dishonesty and lack of honor contributed to 9/11. Clinton cared more about getting a piece then peace. Clinton didn't just wag the dog, he screwed the pooch.
Barack Obama apparently has some contributions coming from Iraq (the Middle East). If it was a Republican the fascist liberals would be crying foreign interest, big business, big oil, and terrorism connections. The fascist liberals are clearly hypocritical. The vast majority of media is fascist and liberally biased. Yet if Republicans were to question if the foreign donations to Barack Obama might be a conflict of interest, Republicans would probably be scoffed at. Hypocrisy. The fascist liberals always demand full disclosure, if that's what they believe, than they should be by example instead of by whining.

| | Dennis Tyler & Sue Errington embrace cronyism and elitism! - 44 sec
Be sure to click on "MORE INFO"!
During the Town Hall meeting on 5-19-08, Dennis Tyler and Sue Errington stated that property taxes could NOT be eliminated because they simply couldn't find the money to do so. Then both Tyler and Errington said they were in favor of spending more money than needed on construction projects which costs YOU millions of $$$ every year for no good reason. We are dealing with the Common Construction Wage aka CCW.
The question was asked, "Would you be in favor of abolishing the CCW law in favor of local and more competitive market driven contracts?".
Dennis Tyler - "I wouldn't, I think the CCW law works. I think that it's, it's fair the way that it is, it brings it brings in wages and anybody can bring in the wages and it's up to them to do that and produce em', and I, it's worked, it's been in this State for a number of years and it's worked. I don't see any problems with it."
Sue Errington - "I basically agree with Dennis' assessment of it."
Wow, let's just have an honest discussion of exactly what it is that we are talking about here!
This deals with any project in the County that requires construction and what wage to pay the companies that get awarded the contracts.
Our Govt has two options, they can pay a lower wage (ABC) that 100% of the construction companies in Delaware County could bid on, or they can opt for the HIGHER Union wage (AFLCIO) that less than 12% of the construction companies can bid on because they ARE Unionized companies.
You can see a copy of how much it costs you at the link below...check it out for yourself.
http://www.propertytaxrepeal.com/newsletters/CDCPTR%20NL%200608.pdf
Almost every time, our elected officials opt for the higher AFLCIO Union wage which is almost guaranteed to cost us taxpayers 20% more for the same work that we could get cheaper. On projects that are multi-million dollar contracts, it's not uncommon that we the taxpayers are spending up to a million $$$ more for basically nothing. The SAME WORK can be done for less, yet they continue to opt to spend more...why is that you ask, well here's why.
CRONYISM - The answer is simple, pandering to a special interest group aka The Unions! You'd think they'd be heroes for "bringing in wages" for 100% of the construction community, instead of less than 12% of the available companies! This is cronyism at it's finest. They continue to "pay off" a tiny segment of the community for political favors.
ELITISM - Less than 12% of ALL available construction companies get to bid on these jobs therefore disenfranchising over 88% of ALL the construction companies. The SAME companies continue to get the jobs.
What do Tyler and Errington get in return...Votes! The Union will use propaganda and strongarm tactics to insure their members continue to vote for them because it brings in work for them with YOUR MONEY!
It's just more of the "rich getting richer" while the "poor stay poor"!
The Unionized construction labor amounts to at best 1% of our taypaying population, yet 100% of our taxpayers are paying up to 20% MORE than is needed...and our elected officials just can't seem to find any more money to cut out of the budget to help give us tax relief???
It doesn't seem like they are trying too hard, does it?
Oh sure, they contend that Union labor is "better labor", but that is not true, they have apprenticeships which is simply "on-the-job training" which means you can get a "newbie" who has no idea what he is doing with Union labor. You also get Union breaks, which is typically every 2 hours, and they tend to take long breaks. They also are required to have more members on the job than "private" companies, all of which spells inefficiency built right in, and you're paying more for it to boot!
Do you think when Tyler and Errington go grocery shopping they avoid Wal-Mart because of all the foreign products and go to the local Mom & Pop stores and look for the Union Label in everything they buy regardless of price to "bring in wages", or do you think they buy the least expensive products?
When it's THEIR MONEY, I'm sure they fully understand what it means to be frugal, when it's YOUR MONEY, it's time to "Buy Votes" and it's time to "Take care of my friends" and to pander to special interest groups...at YOUR expense with YOUR hard earned money!
ABOLISH the corrupt CCW practices NOW and allow ALL construction companies to bid and go with the lowest bidder...PERIOD!
Oh yeah by the way...the panel who votes on awarding the CCW...is STACKED with Union people to guarantee that they FLEECE the taxpayers, there are ineligible members on that board that they refuse to remove and replace with eligible members....hmmmm, I wonder why?
This is YOUR GOVT in action and it needs fixed NOW! Get involved, get active and let's get it fixed once and for all!
We can't AFFORD to do business this way any longer!

Please keep all comments and debates civil, no vulgarities, ECT...
IMAO
Remember how the Fascist liberals tried to claim that Bush stole the election because the popular vote didn't necessarily agree with the legal vote. So the Fascist liberals wanted to ignore the Constitution/law. Yet the Fascist liberals have voted to use a superdelegate system that is based on a delegate system instead of a popular vote. The Fascist liberal delegate system is extremely subject to cronyism. Fascist liberal superdelegates votes can be bartered for, with bribes or and strong arm tactics. Superdelegates are often given gifts or offered positions if the candidate gains an office, or threatened with bureaucracy if they don't support a particular candidate. Virtually all of the pandering happens behind the doors and under the table.
