On July 26th, Palin will also have the freedom to say what she wants without being constrained by her government position.

Poor Shannyn Moore is shocked to learn that freedom of speech is a two-way street and that her rumor mongering may have unintended consequences. Palin might win a suit for libel or she might not. But Moore will start having some of those big legal bills. Moore whines that she’s being treated like “an Enemy of the State” and even worse, on the 4th of July. Drama queen, maybe?

I do not wnat Sarah Palin to represent me in national office. I don’t think she is qualified either educationally or experientially But I have been astounded by the reaction of much of the press to her–the first thought that comes to mind is that someone is very threatened by her and wants to destroy her reputation in the national mind. I wonder why?

There is something a little off about Palin. Everything she does or said since she was the VP candidate made me scratch my head.

How on earth did she get elected Governor of Alaska. If McCain got elected, I frightens me to know that she would have been one step away from the Presidency.

The funny thing is that a lot of what has been said about Sarah Palin has been said by her own party and the McCain camp. What other explanation did she offer other than “My family and I think it’s best for the state of Alaska…” Really?

Only in recent years has there been a push by the media and private citizens to move information (right or wrong) into the public eyes. It’s the times we live in, it’s the technology and freedoms we have invented that make this possible.

Liberal Media?!?!? Please, how liberal are Beck, Savage, Hanity, Rush and the like. Oh but what they say is the truth right? If this had been any other democrat governor, he or she would have been labeled a “quitter” and “traitor” to the people of their state. And that label would have been CORRECT, as it is with Sarah Palin.

To Sarah Palin,

You were voted in by the trust and good faith of the people of Alaska. You took the oath and office to lead the people of your state regardless of circumstance. You broke that oath and decided that your best interests and that of your family were greater than the office you held. The role of a leader is to put the welfare of the people you serve before your own. If Alaska had thought that it was in their best interest that you step down I think they would have said so.

Okay, perhaps I can make some sense of things. Why do any of you care about what the press has to say? Why do any of you keep labeling each other as Liberals and Conservatives? Why the hell am I even writing this? You guys are defending someone who doesn’t know you exist or ever will. The fact of the matter is that we spend so much time listening/watching political opinionists who spend their waking hours talking about anything that crosses their path. For everyone that hangs off of every word that they hear from political commentators, I have one thing to say to you, everything that people “speculate” about are basically unsubstantiated claims until the court of law looks at the facts and comes to a decision. That’s how it has been from the beginning and that’s how it is going to be from now on; albeit it’s not a perfect system, it still works. We just have to make sure that we, citizens, keep systems in check, especially if there is overwhelming evidence to the contrary. Like John Adams said, “Facts are stubborn things.” Now I’m not saying that what is being churned out of the rumor mill is fact or fabricated rhetoric, just keep an open mind.

You know on second thought, it is good that you guys argue back and forth because it shows that we still have freedoms in this country, which should be our primary concern. Screw PIGs (Private Interest Groups) that are political parties, because you know for damn sure that they aren’t public groups, no matter how hard you argue your points. Lets just focus on facts, speculate little, and try not to get to the point of violent actions in lieu of civil debates. Name calling never really solves anything. And that goes for everybody. Remember, first and foremost we are human, that’s who we should be for, not against. Well, I hope some people attack this post because it will show that our voices still remain unchained.

Nice ‘article’. I see you demand others stick to facts, but bloggers can ‘report’ rumors? I get it, someone who is popular resigns and bloggers see a chance to make something up and get popular. Wait, that is exactly how the Main Stream Media lost all respect. I guess some people will do anything for a little of the spotlight (politician, Media, Bolggers).
I am only excluded from the list because this post is largely anon.
