Wow.. how many stories can be written and posted in a day from the same site? I'll have to give DAILY KOS credit... they are like a Pit Bull (WITHOUT lipstick) since Palin was announced.

Still.. Obama won't be getting my vote, NOT MATTER WHAT, so SUCK IT, please. Starting now, for each new story posted, I am planning to convince an Obama voter to switch sides and go with McCain. Shouldn't be too difficult. And thanks for your concern.

It's extremely difficult. And I am speaking as an Obama voter that disagrees with him often. Good luck with the die-hard fans.

/and if you are just a spiteful Clinton supporter who can't seem to get over it, so you're switching total ideologies, I doubt you'll be getting that letter from MENSA any time soon.

That was back when Giuliani was under the mistaken impression that 9/11 outranked POW.

He has since sen the error of his ways and realizes that nothing outranks POW.

Not a fan of the Clinton brigade either. Maybe I'll link to this thread on November 5th to show that my forecasted 232 additional "converted" Republican votes in Ohio actually helped make a difference in the election. Who knows.. maybe President McCain will invite me to the White House. Shrimp for everyone!

Who the fark actually likes Giuliani? Seriously.

This guy is a dick and hypocrite of the highest order.

It takes some balls to talk shiat about cities when you grew up in one and made your now sullied name as a politician in one.

I still can't believe the GOP gave him that pimp spot right before Palin.

No...please...not a Rudy thread. I don't think I can take it...here it comes...HULK ANGRY! HULK SMASH!

Rudy is a complete piece of shiat. This guy needs to remember that it wasn't only republicans that died on 9/11...I think it's telling that the two cities that were attacked on 9/11 - New York and Washington, D.C., are 99.9% likely to vote for a Democrat in this election. New Yorkers remember who was president when the towers fell and are not going to buy the BS that only Republicans can keep us safe.

And Rudy...all of us in the NY area thank you for getting us through that dark day. When we were looking for leadership, you were the only one who responded. But now you are using 9/11 to attack your enemies and for that you are a disgrace.

BTW Rudy. THE YANKEES ARE DONE. Hear me? DONE. No October playoffs in Yankee Stadium for you this year.

Not everyone. Plenty of police, firefighters, National Guard and medics are pissed at him. I heard the NYC fire chief talk about him last fall... holy crap. Rudy should be glad he didn't get anywhere in the primaries, these guys would have destroyed him.

That might have been fun to watch.

Well, we sure thought he was great then...I remember talking to my fellow liberal hippy tree-huggers and we were all moved by his first few press conferences and interviews. They appeared genuine and heart-felt, and rather than immediately running off to an undisclosed location (at least not until later...) he stood in the street making sure that people were OK and showed strength and leadership (far more leadership than GWB displayed when he finally got around to flying down on the 14th). 7 years later? You're absolutely right - fark him.

Well, not wanting to give ideas but let's look at obvious how ehe'll try and we can examine the margin of success

1. torture
2 brainwash
3 hypnosis (which is like bainwashing)
4 bribe
5 If he's really desperate he'll threaten to kill people.

So let's wish him lots of luck on his stay in jail if he should attempt any of the above.

That can be considered bribing and torture. The uber desperate would most likely use all the above at once. It's overkill, I know but that's Uber desperate for you.

ANCHORAGE, Alaska (AP) - The Alaska Legislature is hastening its ethics investigation into Gov. Sarah Palin's firing of her public safety commissioner, making it far more likely it will be completed before November's election.

State Sen. Hollis French said Friday that seven witnesses told the Legislature's investigator they will refuse depositions and canceled their meetings. French, who is overseeing the investigation into whether Palin abused her power, said the Legislature will subpoena these witnesses, who do not include the governor.

Lawmakers say they have put the investigation on a fast track now that Palin is Republican John McCain's running mate. The investigation previously was expected to end on Oct. 31. French said the new target date for investigator Stephen Branchflower to complete the report is Oct. 10.

"It's just basic fairness to the governor," said French, an Anchorage Democrat who heads the Senate Judiciary Committee. "We started to focus on Oct. 31 because that's the end of Mr. Branchflower's contract, but our motion says prepare a report in a timely manner."

In July, a state oversight committee approved $100,000 for an investigation into whether Palin fired public safety commissioner Walt Monegan because he would not dismiss a trooper, Mike Wooten, who went through a messy divorce with her sister before Palin's election as governor.

"I would like to put this behind me and move on with my life," Wooten said in an interview with The Washington Post, published on its Web site Friday night. "I don't wish ill will on anyone. I think that the nomination that Sarah got is great for the state of Alaska. I wish her good luck and the family good luck. I honestly think that everyone involved in this wanted to put this beyond us."

Wooten said he was proud he had once been part of the Palin family, but he contradicted Palin's statement that she overheard him in 2005 threaten her father during an argument with Palin's younger sister, Molly McCann, Wooten's wife at the time. Wooten noted that an internal investigation failed to sustain the death-threat allegation.

Please continue.
