I honestly think you need to back away from the keyboard for a while. Seriously...

NONE of this was Obama's fault.. She quit for her own reasons which are quite frankly her business...

Stop blaming Obama because your 'messiah' decided she didn't want to be in public office right now.

The 'shift the blame game you're doing is horrid.. Everyone else has discussed this with out sounding obsessed.

You honestly need to see how you look through other people's eyes dear..

It's not pretty.. by a long shot

Like I said,no offense meant.I can't imagine doing something nasty like that,so just try not blaming everyone on the "left".I could never do anything like that,I doubt Obama would either.

Obama personally? I agree, he most likely would not. One from his camp? A possibility....

I disagree with that to a point. If he were 'elected' and not just 'appointed' (hired) to a position, I think there is a difference. She made promises and was elected based upon those promises. She just doesn't 'walk out', she's accountable.

BTW can your DH help out with some parking tickets or MJ tickets? (or my kids' tuition?)

When he was 'appointed' to his position he made certain promises too. Plus he's been a public servant for 20 years longer than Palin...

Sarah Palin Embezzlement Scandal


Sarah Palin Embezzlement Scandal - Alaska Governor Sarah Palin resigned because of an embezzlement scandal involving her actions as Mayor of Wasilla and receiving huge financial favors from Spenard Building Supplies

The Sarah Palin embezzlement scandal now has Federal indictments being issued this month that would have crippled Palin’s ability to govern effectively.

So sudden was her resignation that her own children didn’t know she was resigning until they heard the words spoken. Prior to her sudden announcement, Palin gave every indication that she intended to complete her tenure as governor, including during a meeting just 36 hours earlier with Senator Mark Begich.

The embezzlement scandal involves the massive, $12.5 million sports complex that Sarah Palin pushed through during her last term as Mayor in Wasilla. Federal investigators believe the price of the sports complex was inflated to provide free building materials and labor for the Palin home being constructed nearby.

The sports complex’s contractors and architect have strong links and ties to Palin. Spenard Building Supplies was one - they are the largest building supply company in Alaska - and they also supplied labor & materials for the Palin’s home being built at the same time on nearby Lake Lucille.

Spenard Building Supplies was also the supplier and contractor for ex-Senator Ted Stevens cabin. This one building supply company was in bed with Palin, Stevens, the Wasilla sports complex, and is also a major financial contributor to Palin.

The sports complex was being constructed at the very same time as the Palin’s home and at one point Spenard filed a contractor’s lien for labor and materials on the home. Both structures, it is said, feature the “same windows, same wood, same products.”

Todd Palin told reporters during the presidential election that he built the two-story, 3,500 square-foot, four-bedroom, four-bath, two-story wood house by himself, with the help of contractors he described as “buddies.”

Federal investigators have been looking into this since last October and now indictments on charges of public corruption and embezzlement are imminent.

It appears that the construction of Palin’s home may have been some sort of quid pro quo arrangement for the massive influx of money from the Wasilla Sports Complex project into the building supply company.

Sarah Palin was then running for Lieutenant Governor, a major step-up position that could further reward those contributing to her campaign, particularly those that were involved with the Wasilla sports complex and the mysteriously inexpensive construction of Sarah Palin’s palatial cabin on pristine Lake Lucille.

Expect the situation to get ugly fast.
