    @Systembucker:
    Shannyn was asked about the ethics complains and she mentioned that complaints can continue to be filed for 2 more years and specifically mentioned the Daniel complaint about the defense/slush fund. that SP supposed didn’t have anything to do with it but was sending out thankyou notes to donors.

    Systembucker – about the thank you cards, the fact that Kristen Cole said Palin had NO knowledge/communication about the AFT (the AK fund trust/Palin slush fund) – and how that is not true because Palin sent thank you cards for the donations to said trust.

Discussed her lack of ability to give a speech. Then discussed many of Palin’s various lies. Then Shannyn interview. And later will do some kind of wrap up time capsule. This should probably hit the MSNBC website later tonight.

    Great interview with Shannyn although I wish she would have had time to hammer Sarah on three things she said in her speech yesterday, recurring themes for her.
    1. Using the troops for her own purpose (How bout in honor of the American Soldier, ya quit making things up) What things were made up? Tell us that in honor of the American Soldier. 2. Her misinterpretation of the First Amendment. She again brought it up (of course using the soldier again) about her right to free speech. The first amendment is to protect our speech from the government. She was the government every time she claimed her free speech rights. 3. The attacks on her kids. (Leave Sean Parnells kids alone) As far as I know, Sean hasn’t trotted his kids out for his own political purposes.

    Sent them another email reminding them that it is past time for their
    financials to be made public. I hope others will also email them asking
    about their financial records. I would like to see if they have spent any
    money and if so, how. Inquiring minds want to know.

    I grew up in the west, and I’ll tell you Shannyn Moore looks much more like a girl of the west than does Sarah Palin, who really looks more like a Dallas or Memphis sort of southern belle.

    I was a little disappointed to read earlier that KO was not going to be on, but Lawrence O’Donnell didn’t give Buttercup an inch in any of the segments. He really nailed her on her lies and made her look like the incompetent hypocrite we all know she is. Kudos to Shannyn and Lawrence!

    Palin’s voice, her tone and her snarkiness makes me want to not only throw things at the TV but it makes me want to rip my ears off, jam something in my eyes so I don’t have to listen or see her.

    I can not believe the arrogance of this woman. She actually called everyone who has told the truth about her, liars. Everyone is wrong and Sarah is right.

    Well – if she wants the national spotlight, she will get it. And along with that – even MORE national scrutiny. I sincerely hope that she is exposed for the pathological liar that she is on every single issue, every single utterance from her mouth and every single backstabbing tactic she uses. I hope she becomes like Newt Gingrich – loud, obnoxious and completely irrelevant. To Republicans, Democrats and Independents alike.

    And if she peddles her political & personal agenda on the memories of troops one more time, I am going to write a letter a day to Senator McCain demanding that he apologise for inflicting the Palin Plague on us all, on national TV during Monday Night Football!

    I’m a vietnam veteran who is going to be retiring in Alaska. I couldn’t believe that John McCian (who I admire but didn’t vote for) would allow his party to stick him with that loud mouth cheerleader for the Christian right. It put the nails in the coffin of the GOP. Sarah, go back to your fish guttin and moose shootin, and leave the politics to the big boys.
