Alaska AG: State employees won't honor subpoenas

JUNEAU, Alaska - Alaska's investigation into whether Gov. Sarah Palin abused her power, a potentially damaging distraction for John McCain's presidential campaign, ran into intensified resistance Tuesday when the attorney general said state employees would refuse to honor subpoenas in the case.

In a letter to state Sen. Hollis French, the Democrat overseeing the investigation, Republican Attorney General Talis Colberg asked that the subpoenas be withdrawn. He also said the employees would refuse to appear unless either the full state Senate or the entire Legislature votes to compel their testimony.

Palin’s Favorability Ratings Begin to Falter

Pro-Tip: She never had favorability ratings in the first place! She was just a ratings boost for the RNC, and that's it.

McCain's actual message, one beloved by the American electorate and put into words by George Carlin "I'm completely full of shit and how'da'ya like that!"

Turns out a majority of Americans appear to like that just fine!

The Bush administration isn't even held responsible for negligence in letting it happen.

And I'm not talking about "letting it happen accidentally on purpose."

I mean "being negligent in protecting the nation." They are surely guilty of that at the very least, but they get a pass.

Carly Fiorina to "disappear" for awhile:

Another top campaign adviser was far less diplomatic.

“Carly will now disappear,” this source said. “Senator McCain was furious.” Asked to define “disappear,” this source said, adding that she would be off TV for a while – but remain at the Republican National Committee and keep her role as head of the party’s joint fundraising committee with the McCain campaign.

Fiorina was booked for several TV interviews over the next few days, including one on CNN. Those interviews have been canceled.

At one point, I believed he was honest. I didn't agree with him on everything, but back in '98 or '99, when there was talk he might run for president, I was willing to give him a look. I'm not a hawk, but I have a lot of military folks in my family, and I understand why they think the way they do.

He shot his own credibility in Bush's cabinet, though, when he refused to resign over the war and then went on to hawk for it at the UN. He knew it was wrong, and he knew it would hurt the military.

I'm willing to believe he knows what the right thing is now. To me, he's an example of a Republican who may not be "of the GOP." He can see what the GOP is doing not only to the country, but specifically to the military to which he devoted his career. He could step up and do the right thing right now. If he's on the fence--and this article indicates he is--he could still prove me right.

I have to say this about the "Palin bump:" it will be long gone in a month. It may have been the smartest thing in the world for Obama and Bidden to sit back for a week or so and do nothing and wait to strike. With the memory span Americans have shooting your wad early is usually a bad idea.

In the unlikely event that what you believe is true where do you think he will draw his cabinet and administration appointees from? Space? Or is he going to do it solo. The Republicans are backing McCain not because they believe he will reform anything but to retain their hold on power. The US isn't bankrupt yet and they still have pockets to fill. One more term ought to about do it.

Agreed, but Powell won't be in a McCain cabinet. He's persona non grata to Republicans now that they've used him up. He might decide to sit it out and do nothing...but I have the feeling he's not as heartless and blind as the typical, card-carrying GOPer. Unlike a lot of Republicans, the possibility of him doing the right thing at least exists.

All very possible. Regarding how and why he rose to general, I don't know much about it, so I'll defer to you. As for not running for president, I think there were numerous factors. What you mentioned certainly seems plausible. His life was threatened, I've read, and he was also treated with hostility by people high up in the GOP (as well as hard-core right-wing activists) who thought him "too liberal" and too much of a wild card on social issues.

The other thing that I vividly recall, though, is that his wife has suffered from severe depression. Some knucklehead on pundit teevee back at the time he was considering a run pointed out that the GOP would declare open season on her medical history. It was shortly thereafter that he decided, "Fuck it." I can't say I disagree with him. I wouldn't put my family through it, either.

I could run. We could have a race, Ron. :)

Do you want to be responsible for me dropping dead? Hey, I just got a used 18 speed mountain bike. How about you run and I ride.

I am in Las Vegas and everything is just a wee bit hotter here. LOL :)

So here's a good one.

Suddenly, after telling Matt Lauer on NBC-teevee earlier today that he's against additional regulations for the financial sector, John McCain has seen the light and is in favor of additional regulation.

Talk about major flip-flop.

Pretty amazing shots of damage from Ike, especially the first few:

Haven't been watching much TV lately, but the coverage on evening news (non-cable) sure has seemed light, given the extent of apparent damage.

McCain camp calls Fey's Palin portrayal ‘sexist’

“Just because Sarah Palin has different views than Hillary Clinton does not mean that she lacks substance. She has a lot of substance,” Fiorina said.

Plus: Cindy McCain says ‘View’ hosts ‘picked our bones clean’

Cindy McPillPopper has done a lot of substances ...............

Those are amazing pictures. The oil slick one, along with the floating caskets...pretty horrifying.

Photo 13 blows my mind.

I can picture a real estate developer getting a hard-on for the first shot (Photo 11)--a sales office already in place and soon hundreds of new condos rising all around...

Well knock me over with a feather!

All this time i thought it was because he had missed that kitchen table so bad he wanted a kitchen cabinet!

Hey, watch it. He was a POW and didn't have a table for five years, dontchano.

Don't the world know?

I went into the den of the of the lions (read subservient, brainless, minions) at Town Hall and posted. What is posted here is very mild to what you will read here. Obama is, according to one nitwit, a communist, and that is mild compared to some of the other dog feces that masquerades for comments. Intelligent cannot be used to describe the bloggers much less the posters. I don't want to go back but I guess if Dennis comes here, I have to go there.

By the way, has anyone been paying attention to David Gregory. What a sorry excuse for a male half of a heterosexual couple. His tongue must perpetually drag on the ground.
