Palin on Whether She Ever Tried to Ban Books: 'It's an Old Wives' Tale'

and Clinton did NOT fire attorneys

he dismissed GOP POLTICAL appointees
just as GH Bush did

Bill Clinton fired all the US attorney's when he came to office.

so that makes it ok?

Palin "i live next door to Russia!"

Maine is closer to Moscow than she is, foreign policy is not made in Kamchata!

Bill Clinton fired all the US attorney's when he came to office.

Sarah fires her enemies too.

Bill Clinton was a successful president; Sarah will be a successful VP.

" It's an Old Wives' tale " ????

Trying to look smart, she jumped "...from the frying pan into the fier."

It took her just ten days to start bare her true colors.

Judgment is one of the most imoportant qualities in a President. Clearly, Obama has TERRIBLE judgment. You are who you hang with. Rezko, Rev. Wright, Farrakahns, Ayers...these friendships and associations are enough for me. Obama has a very LONG history of befriending BAD people. That's NOT the kind of person who should be leading our country.

I'm glad a FEW of the commentators have facts about Alaska politics and are not getting their info off of far left websites. Not everything on these websites are true remember. If the truth is really what you are seeking. Smear sites are just that. Smear sites. Because Palin doesn't share your world view you are out to get her. Whatever happened to respectful disagreement. Remember we ALL want what is best for this country whether Republican or Democrat. Don't we? Or maybe it's more important to put out nasty unsubstantiated smears.

Yes, Sarah Palin was trying to attempt ban on some books. But there was an outcry from the community. Palin was facing recall problems. Palin backed off. Palin was out to get librarian for sure!!

Librarian only spoke to news reporter once claiming yes Palin had pushed for banning books. Palin does get personal with her vendettas.

Her whole history in politics is quite questionable when it comes to her revealed style.

And she is quite alarming!! And I am a woman!!

Sarah Palin throughout her whole political career has discharged people for personal reasons. Go check! I will say she is smart, but she is a scary woman to be so close to being President of the United States. I have researched extensively, and found alarming evidence of personal vendettas to fire people. I see she rules in secrecy. Mayors are upset with her across the state. Claims of being least accessible governor ever. Calls never returned. Emails never eturned.

Then found out about the investigation. MY BIG ALARM-I am particularly concerned about the legislative investigation against her as governor presently going on.

I find most of news media is not even covering. This media avoidance is questionable??? Americans have a right to know. I see Sarah Palin was going to be open, then damaging evidence surfaced, she was selected Vice President, then top lawyers went up there and all out attempts for cover -up. Sarah Palin's husband is to be forced to be interviewed. vlen other people too.

Republicans and Democrats we all need to know!!

To be frank with everyone, i will rather have Obama as the president of America than wish McCain to be there for the simple reason that it will not take long under his administration to have a nuclear war standoff with Russia, China or North Korea. We have had enough of a heated global politics and all we need to be discussing now should be diplomacy which is the foundation for Americas greatness. Stupid electorates keep worrying yourselves over lipstick and the pitbull

Palin's insult to Old Wives is sexist.

Palin's behavior of insulting her own neighbors, and the people she served as mayor, seems to be a pattern. The stories are coming out in the mainstream media today (i.e. The NY Times), and this "old wives" insult to the two women acting as whistleblowers seems to be a part of that pattern.

One thing wrong...the Republicans had control of both Houses of Congress for President Clintons last 6 years.

104th Congress: House (Rep 230-Dem 204-Other 1); Senate (Rep 52-Dem 48)

105th Congress: House (Rep 228-Dem 206-Other 1); Senate (Rep 55-Dem 45)

106th Congress: House (Rep 222-Dem 211-Other 1); Senate (Rep 55-Dem 45)

Bill Clinton invites Ohbama to lunch.

Sarah Palin has Ohbama FOR lunch, every
day.....and still manages to keep her
slim figure. Whatta gal.

78% of Obama's 875 million in earmarks went to companies and organizations which financially supported his campaign.

When talking about liars it really takes one to know one.

And Lying Sarah is the biggest liar from the biggest state.

At least we'll have another Lying VP to lie us into another bogus war.

Bryan asks:

>> How was it the Presidents fault that the banks made stupid loans to people who could not afford a $300,000 home while making $20,000 a year? How is it the Presidents fault that oil went to $140 + a barrel? Not all, but much of what is wrong with the economy now is the high price of fuel. Job loss included. I may be wrong… But I believe, if they lifted the ban on drilling (without ever drilling a single well, oil prices would plummet. Congress also needs to look into why oil has gone down 40% recently, but fuel prices have barely dropped.
I’m also appalled at how the Dems, Hillary, & Charlie claim that while “Bill” was president he created 20 + million jobs. The “Bill” who was more responsible for those job creations was Bill Gates, NOT Bill Clinton. It was the technology boom ( personal computers & internet) that created the majority of those jobs.<<

Well, it is the executive's job to regulate the banking industry—he appoints the Treasury Secretary, the head of Fed, sets economic policy.

Same thing with energy. The Bush Administration's policy appears to have been "whatever you want, Big Oil," so it's no wonder prices have skyrocketed. And yes, oil prices have dropped—even with offshore oil production severely cut by Hurricanes Gustav and Ira. So how allowing new drilling (which will not put any new oil in the pipelines for a decade) help now?...And if the price at the pump hasn't fallen proportionately, blame the oil companies, not Congress.

And yes, the tech boom did help increase jobs, but a good deal of the credit has to go to Clinton and the Dems—they did an exemplary job of managing the tech sector, making sure the atmosphere was right for innovation and new businesses to flourish.

Is the "Bush Doctrine" anything like the Monroe Doctrine, and is it taught in schools as such, or is it merely a figment of the media's imagination, as formulated by Mr. Gibson? Frankly, I don't think President George W.Bush is organized enough to even have put a "Doctrine" together, but if he has, could someone kindly post its points in numerical order? Thanks.

According to a Wasilla City Council member who was present (Anne Kilkenny, vd online) Ms Palin raised the subject at a meeting, asking how a person might go about banning a book. The librarian told her only the directing librarian had discretion to select books and that no public official had such authority. Ms Palin then raised the ante by asking how the library would react if citizens organized a protest against a book being in the library. So the subject of book-banning was in her mind and, given the extreme right-wingedness of Palin's other social views, frankly I don't find it surprising that she had book-banning thoughts in her head. After that something happened, because she fired the librarian (as well as the Chief of Police). The librarian was reinstated after the community rallied on her behalf. The Chief of Police sued Palin for breach of contract. Kilkenney says that as a result of all this fuss, GOP higher-ups advised Palin to hire a city manager (for a town of 7000!) to handle day-to-day administration and keep her name out of trouble (suggesting that they were already grooming her for higher things).
