hometown

Despite Palin’s announced resignation, she is still getting hit with ethics complaints:

Zane Henning -- a conservative government watchdog from the governor's hometown of Wasilla and an oilfield worker on Alaska's North Slope -- asserts in a letter to Alaska Attorney General Daniel S. Sullivan that Palin has "been charging and pocketing per diem to live in her home and has used the process for a personal gain since being elected."

Got that? This is a conservative filing the complaint, not “some liberals”. And if you read the entire thing, you will also question this practice Queen Sarah partook in. Now I just wonder if I will get sued by Palin for mentioning it?

This is rather shocking. Chabot is a staunch conservative, but this looks to be the reasons he is siding with Democrats:

But when foreclosures in his hometown of Cincinnati skyrocketed, Chabot found himself aligned with Democrats - and against his party's leaders, his conservative colleagues and the White House.

I can say firsthand that foreclosures are skyrocketing here in the greater Cincinnati area. Part of my business involves photography of houses that are going on the market. We are starting to see a lot of these homes pop up. Yes it means more work for me, but you can't help but feel bad for the people losing their homes.

I give Chabot credit for wanting to help the common man. Most conservatives won't do that. Instead they choose to help big business.

(there is some question to if Robertson actually said what is below. I will keep the post here and update it if he did not say it. It would not shock me one bit if he did)

I have heard numerous arguments from the religious fanatics
about why Katrina was so devastating. Fred Phelps of
Westboro Baptist
Church says it
was because New Orleans is a “symbol of America, seen for what it is: a putrid,
toxic, stinking cesspool of fag fecal matter”. We all know old Fred Phelps is
definitely a bunch of fried short of a Happy Meal.

Today
Pat Robertson shed some light on God’s reasoning for
striking a devastating blow to the Gulf Coast. He told his followers that it was
God’s way of expressing his anger at the Academy of Television Arts and Science
for selecting Ellen Degeneres to host its annual show.

"By choosing an avowed lesbian for this national event,
these Hollywood elites have clearly invited God’s wrath. Is it any surprise that
the Almighty chose to strike at Miss Degeneres’ hometown?”

It amazes me that this nut job has any kind of following at
all. It is also an insult to the people of this country that not only our
President, but so many citizens hold him in such high regards as a moral and
spiritual leader.
