Palin Just Doesn't Get It

In an article appearing on the AP lines of Yahoo, Palin through her attorney has announced she is going to go after bloggers for reprinting or posting defammatory remarks and articles. How ridiculous is this woman and her attorney? So ridiculous that after reading the article, I immediately began my daily post on none other than Sarah Palin. Coming after bloggers is tantamount to chasing down the rumour mill or a lie. It can't be done. To even threaten to tie up the court with foolish litigation, shows just how thoughtless this woman is. Read the excerpt below!

"The abruptness of her announcement and the mystery surrounding her plans have fed widespread speculation. But Palin attorney Thomas Van Flein on Saturday warned legal action may be taken against bloggers and publications that reprint what he calls fraudulent claims.

To the extent several websites, most notably liberal Alaska blogger Shannyn Moore, are now claiming as 'fact' that Governor Palin resigned because she is 'under federal investigation' for embezzlement or other criminal wrongdoing, we will be exploring legal options this week to address such defamation," Van Flein said in a statement. "This is to provide notice to Ms. Moore, and those who re-publish the defamation, such as Huffington Post, MSNBC, the New York Times and The Washington Post, that the Palins will not allow them to propagate defamatory material without answering to this in a court of law."

My thoughts on the article is Palin is a nut case, way too sensitive for national politics, and needs to find another day job she can be committed to. Palin needs to get lost. While I admit the conservative party needs leadership, I dont think this is what they had in mind. Anyway, who asked Palin to lead the party? Alaskans have been betrayed by Palin, plain and simple. Two and a half years into a four year gig, with little prior political experience, what does Palin expect to accomplish? Resigning before the job is done at a critical time in Alaska's budgetary business shows exactly why Palin is no good for the country. Self serving interests above the peoples needs and interests are sure to go a long way in Washington. Isn't that what is going on there now? She will fit right in, if they let her in, which they will not.
