PJ Media

She was cited for improper gift taking.

Precisely my point. This is the type of frivolous nonsense the elites have come up with to bring her down. This kind of crap cost the state and the Palins out the wazoo to deal with, cost NOTHING to charge her with, and I am certain that the scum who brought these charges knew damn well that this was going to be tossed out, but only after costing everyone else a fortune in income and time.

The whole thing about politicians having to deal with the same thing is BS. Let’s compare VP kids. Palin has a daughter who is an unwed teen-age mother. Biden has fully-grown kids; his daughter, during the campaign, was arrested for involvement in a drunken bar brawl (I hear tell that it’s not the first time, but I can’t immediately corroborate that.) He has a son and a brother, both of whom were about to be indicted for fraud and bribery of a public official.

Which of the two parents and VP nominees got the most coverage for their family’s wrong-doings?

Most of you reading this are probably saying “What? Biden’s family did what?” Which is my point exactly; there very much has been and continues to be a double standard perpetrated by the media and the DC crowd. We all know this. We also know that these people would be attacking Palin regardless of whether she stayed in office or not. At least this way the people of Alaska won’t have to foot the bulk of the bill for more ridiculous, baseless, and fraudulent charges. Palin took a hit for the sake of her state, and she should be applauded for doing so. Consider Mark Sanford, flying off to Argentina to knock boots with his mistress ON FATHER’S DAY. He should man up and step down before he brings further disgrace to himself, his family, and to his state. But he has refused, even with both sides of the aisle calling for his removal. It is sad when a beauty pageant hockey mom can be more of a man than someone actually equipped with such plumbing.
