**************************************************************
Here’s my paraphrasing from notes I took while listening in the car. You’ll get the idea.
Burke welcomed Ross and then a “Breaking News” flash. The ethics complaint filed by Sondra Tompkins against the governor is announced. Burke says that he bets Tompkins won’t come on the show. Then he reads from the ethics complaint and can’t pronounce the word “abdication.” He talks about what a great job the governor is doing by “getting Alaska on the national circuit.” He wonders why everyone is filing ethics complaints and concludes that they “don’t like to see someone else be successful.”
Ross says the governor is being “nibbled by ducks”.
They talk about Tompkins and state that the only thing she’s gained is that “she got her name read.” Burke calls ethics complaint filers “drive by terrorists” and bets Ross a steak dinner that Tompkins won’t come on the show.
WAR: It’s sad that she’s constantly attacked. She’s spending her time dealing with ethics complaints, and then the people that complain say she’s not working.
Burke: (this one killed me!) Conservatives don’t do things like that. “We have a conscience, that’s the problem!” “Liberals just want people who are passionate, with convictions and principles to be restricted from participating in the political scene.” It’s just like that Miss America thing where she was saying that she didn’t believe in same sex marriage.
Every time someone calls in, Burke says, “You’re on with War!” He speculates that “they could be doing this to bankrupt the governor and enrich the lawyers.” They want to “knock her down and make her less credible”.
WAR: She spends her time dealing with vicious allegations. “Someone complained about a jacket she was wearing. Crazy stuff.” “I’m actually surprised she stays in the job, but she’s a dedicated lady.”
The conversaion turns to his confirmation hearing. WAR says that he said to the Lord, “Whatever you’ve got in mind for me today is OK. And that’s what he had in mind.”
(So if this is all ordained by God, why is everyone complaining about it? Shouldn’t they be thanking bloggers and those who gave public testimony for being agents of God’s will? Just wondering.)
Caller: We need to get rid of Hollis French and “the rest of those dipsticks. We could have had one Hell of an AG.”
Ross said he’s still “picking arrows out of his back.”
Caller: You remind me of Judge Bork. (They meant it in a good way.)
WAR: Says he’ll be writing a book….. (head bang)
Burke hopes that some “haters” will call in because they “encourage that.”
A “Hater” calls! – Talks about the fact tha Ross chose to offer his services pro bono to the guy who threw water on anti-war protesters. Then there’s a big stream of words about how everyone is entitled to a defense, and Ross felt for the guy because he has a son in the military. The caller reiterated that working pro bono for a client who is actively suppressing legal first amendment rights is troubling. Then they keep pretending not to understand, and finally Ross asks, “Do you have a child in the military?” And Burke asks, “Is there any war you’ve ever agreed with?” bla bla bla.
Another Hater! – Talks about the character of Dick Burton (ex-commissioner of public safety) and his daughter Leah Burton (who gave damning testimony at the hearing). Mentions the letter that Dick Burton send to Ross after he attacked his daughter. Ross said, “My response was that I told him I’d pray for him. If you don’t agree with that then we’ll have to agree to disagree.” (Of course he fails to mention that before the praying part, he said that he and his daughter obviously had some problems)
Caller: Asks WAR which legislators in particular were responsible for all the problems with confirmation. WAR answers “Woojelowski”. (He actually meant Wielechowski….but how could he be expected to know that?) He also mentioned Hollis French, and got the name right. Then he said as lawyers, “they should know better” than to criticize him like that. Burke said they accused him of “not stickin’ up for women and despicable crap.” He’s been married for 41 years, so obviously that’s not true. (Call the logic police!)
Burke asks if WAR at least got paid for his trouble. “I think I made a little per diem” and got a chapter for his book.
That was a very long hour….

We’ve turned email confirmation off on the forums at the moment.
So you won’t have to wait for an email – you just register and you’re all set. 
But please can I ask everyone – this applies to both here and on the forums – make sure you are using a valid email address and an email address you check regularly.
There are times when I will need to email commenters, and also the forum does send out newsletters when we have news to announce.
Speaking of which, if Say No To Palin in Politics is reading this, I sent you email but I didn’t hear back from you, so I am wondering if maybe you did not check your email that you have listed on the blog here.

LEVI!
April 22nd, 2009 at 5:06 PM
Tealwomin is liveblogging upthread, for those who are tv-less.
April 22nd, 2009 at 5:08 PM
Levi says he doesn’t have a lawyer..? When asked (if he had sex in gino’s house) he said “I’m a gentlemen and I don’t kiss and tell”
They showed a clip of GiNO and his eyes were darting back and forth!!!! Not in a good way. I think he’s been coached. I can’t wait until Sherry and Sadie come on!
April 22nd, 2009 at 5:09 PM
Now he says HE DOES have a lawyer. LK says GINO has “very little rights as a grandmother”
April 22nd, 2009 at 5:11 PM
He doesn’t know why Gino is so mad at him. He says gino doesn’t like Sadie.
hasn’t talked to gino for awhile…he says his Dad talked to dud and now its even worse (since Tyra)
April 22nd, 2009 at 5:12 PM
They told him to go the RNC. He didn’t realize. RNC told him not to talk to press.
April 22nd, 2009 at 5:17 PM
He voted. He voted for GINO. Not really interested in politics, likes John mccain. Never had a exact wedding date…he was at
Trips birth, “it was cool”…thought he would be grossed out but it was exciting. Wants to be a electrician. Wants to take care of his kid. LK asked gino for a statement got A response from Megstable tongue. That same as usual. Bristol is going to college and advocating abstinence…Next up Sadie & Sherry

Sherry doesn’t know what went wrong. Sadies friends made Bristol jealous maybe. Sherry asked to take Tiepp and bristol never called back. Different after “nov” will lawyer for custedy… LK quote AK law for joint cust. It is supposed to be joint. Sherry doesn’t want to “start trouble with gino”Ask what Trip’s last name is (didn’t get to hear it-inaudible.) Sadie thinks its stupid she & Levi can’t see Trip. Bristol told Levi not to talk to sadie.
Levi says not looking for fame, just to get his story out there.
LK keeps asking Sherry “Why” (I think trying to get her to talk about her legal issues)
Levi says he’s not paying any child support until he gets Lawyer etc. He’s got plenty of Diapers and such at his house.
Bristols totally different since before the campaign…
April 22nd, 2009 at 5:37 PM
LK keep trying to get Sherry to say about her legal troubles.
Oh now he has to bring up her problems…{rolls eyes}
April 22nd, 2009 at 5:38 PM
She tell him she can’t go there….anyone can contact her lawyer to find out about her case…
April 22nd, 2009 at 5:39 PM
damn tubes!
Showed some clips from SNL. Sherry seems kind of digested with gino and Sadie wants to be a Surgeon…!
April 22nd, 2009 at 5:40 PM
There’s a bunch of stuff stuck in the tubes
sorry guys, I tried.
April 22nd, 2009 at 5:55 PM
Sitting on a train riding home from work and just burst out laughing at crystalwolf caligirl’s last comment-”stuck in the tubes”! Hilarious! Thanks for making my ride home so enjoyable!
April 22nd, 2009 at 6:01 PM

Restart.
Stuck in the tubes indeed, amidst all the having sex in the parents bedroom talk and all. LOL. Too funny, oi vey.
April 22nd, 2009 at 6:03 PM
ooops, too bold again. missed a letter.
Snoskred? Can we have ‘Preview’ before posting?
April 22nd, 2009 at 6:09 PM
I registered on forum…YEA! as Lainey.
But I can’t find the box to post my introduction and it won’t let me reply off of somebody else’s. I can’t believe this is perplexing to me…I’ll get it eventually.
April 22nd, 2009 at 6:09 PM
@ austintx—hahaha! But why did Dog’s wife get upper arm implants? It’s really unbecoming and they clash with her false eyelashes.

disgusted!Should of been, lol! Oh those guys got it on the other thread live blog, while mine is stuck forever in the tubes……!
April 22nd, 2009 at 6:42 PM
AKM, thanks for taking the whole Eddie/Wayne thing down for us. (I became too disgusted after the first ‘hater’ called, when they became dismissive of him because he hadn’t served in the military. Too bad ‘Hater1′ didn’t know WAR had never been in the service, either!)
I wish I HAD listened longer.

Lainey, if you go into the forum and just click on the ‘forum” tab at the top you will see right below the “introduce yourself” button. Click on. You will see, about four threads down, a thread from Snoskred called “Please Read Before Posting In This Forum” containing useful links. You might have to open a few tabs, but it it worth it!
April 22nd, 2009 at 6:46 PM
Why does Waaa keep referring to people who don’t like the governor as little animals? It’s rather adorable of him, but if you see how Celtic Diva thinks of herself, she is a raging tiger, which is more accurate.

A CLOWNISH, VINDICTIVE AMATEUR’….
This article and the comments are hilarious!!
April 22nd, 2009 at 7:03 PM
WAR is a rank amatuer, like GINO – a bullet was dodged – thanks to concerned citizens and bloggers. Seems like a few short years ago, we did not have the ability to vet and expose people so quickly. This is great, helps keep the incompetents out of government. Kept GINO out of White House, kept WAR out of AK AG’s office. happy dance.
April 22nd, 2009 at 7:06 PM
Let GINO and WAR go on Eddie Burke show and preach to their diminishing, inconsequential choir – who cares? They can keep their few blind followers – they will not win any hearts or minds with their tripe. Moderates and Independents are running away from them in droves.
April 22nd, 2009 at 7:07 PM
Just read AKM updated Smurk & War…
WAR: Ross says the governor is being “nibbled by ducks”
Ummm! wasn’t there a pic recently cirulated with WAR holding a bunch of dead ducks????
I could just see him…luring the (poor) ducks with bread then heartlessly killing them…
coward!
Oh and “got a little per diem” Riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiight!
April 22nd, 2009 at 7:14 PM
New category. “Ick” (Actually, it was used once before with that nasty photo of Ken Salazar and Sarah.)
nerdy wired differently claps hands in delight.
April 22nd, 2009 at 9:08 PM
While listening to the Eddie Burke Show (just finished), I also took notes. It seems the same things jumped out at both of us.
I did note the time line for WAR being submitted for AG. Said he got a call in March from SP’s team asking if he would be interested in working for the Dept of Law. He said no, but that he would be interested in AG…and a couple of weeks later. Colberg resigned. Coincidence?
WAR also said that SP is distracted by frivolous ethics complaints and FOIA requests. Does she respond to these personally, esp in the beginning? To FOIA requests?
Burke is definitely a left winger, kept talking over those who disagreed with him and would not let them finish a sentence. I thought it was awful the way he kept degrading the man who was a municipal police officer.
My favorite, tho was the part about conservatives having a conscious, implying that liberals don’t. My conclusions after listening (for the first and last time to Mr Burke) are that Burke is a typical left wing radio host and WAR is still a liar.
Good summation, AKM.
Thanks! (You mean “right wing”?) AKM
April 22nd, 2009 at 10:02 PM
Why is it no one ever asks WAR how many tours he did in Vietnam? What branch of service was he in?
A man with so many firearms must have been a first rate soldier. Or maybe he didn’t serve his country because, unlike moose, other soldiers have guns too.
Maybe he has a good reason for not serving; kind of like Limbaugh.
but put down your coffee cup first.
If you don’t know why that is; look it up.
April 22nd, 2009 at 10:06 PM
Crazy winger.
April 23rd, 2009 at 3:39 PM
Why does WAR always bring God into the conversation? And why does he speak of his prayers? WAR must be taking cues from the Taliban. He’s got to be inspired by those folks. Yuk.
April 23rd, 2009 at 3:43 PM
I think if WAR had made it to Vietnam, the other GIs would’ve fragged his *ss on the first day. I guess shooting wolves from planes is the closest thing Old War will ever get to combat. Oh…..I forgot…..he tools around in a camo humvee. What a man!
April 23rd, 2009 at 4:20 PM
Naw, that hummer is bright red; he just sometimes throws a camo cover on it!
