Reason #74 not to vote for Sarah Palin for anything

She and her aides rigged polls to make them in her favor.  If she would skewer a poll like that, she will falsify any information, like classified intelligence.

Her highest approval ratings were about 90%.  I bet they were rigged too.

Some of the e-mails are pretty damning-Update

Like this one.

Jeremy Morlock wrote Sarah asking if she could get him a Compassionate Reassignment.  His mother was having problems after the death of her husband.  Sarah ignored it.  Jeremy is responsible for murdering that Afghan boy, but if Sarah had helped him he may not have snapped.  Damn you Sarah!

This e-mail confirms that Bristol was attending Anchorage West High School in Feb 2008.  Just means she was over her "mono" by then.

The e-mails also confirm what Frank Bailey said in his book, that they ghost wrote letters to the editor and had their friends sign them.

And Sarah really really hates Lyda Green.

Update-And here is an e-mail of interest:

"From: "PARNELL, S (GOV sponsored)"

Date: Fri, 09 Nov 2007 17:49:46

To:gov.sarah®yahoo.com

Subject: OCS-infant

Governor,

Karleen Jackson called with an extremely urgent situation involving OCS. When you get the opportunity, please call me at You'll want to be in a quiet place where you can think and talk for a few minutes, if you haven't already been contacted.

Sean"

Wonder what this means.  Is this where she got Trig?

Oh shit! State of AK investigating use of e-mails in Frank Bailey's book

From the ADN


The Alaska attorney general's office says it's investigating a charge that former Sarah Palin aide Frank Bailey wrongfully used state emails as the basis for his coming book slamming the ex-governor

Assistant Attorney General Margaret Paton Walsh on Friday wrote to Anchorage activist Andree McLeod, who filed an ethics complaint against Bailey in September and has been repeatedly asking since what's being done about it.


"In addition to the ongoing investigation ... this office has been working with Enterprise Technology Services, the state's IT division, to ascertain whether the state is missing emails that are state records and which Mr. Bailey may have in his possession," she wrote to McLeod.


"Please be assured that we take this matter very seriously and are working to ensure that the state has possession of all state records and emails," Paton Walsh wrote.


Bailey did not respond to the Daily News on Monday. He did express confidence to The Associated Press in September, after McLeod filed her ethics complaint, that his "efforts and procedures" had been lawful in preparing his memoir.


Bailey joined Palin's 2006 campaign for governor and was one of her closest aides while she was in office.

His book, "Blind Allegiance to Sarah Palin," is to be released May 24 by Howard Books, an imprint of Simon and Schuster.

Howard Books described it as a "chilling expose."

The book is co-authored by Ken Morris and Jeanne Devon of Anchorage, founder of the website The Mudflats. McLeod charges that Bailey shouldn't have shared the emails with his co-authors that are not available to the general public. She has emailed the attorney general repeatedly in recent months asking what's being done.

She also maintains Bailey broke Alaska's executive branch ethics act. It says former public officials aren't allowed to use information acquired in the course of their work for personal gain if the information hasn't been publicly disseminated.

It's not clear exactly which emails that Bailey has.

Palin and close members of her staff in the governor's office, including Bailey, were known to use private email accounts like Yahoo to conduct state business. McLeod says those are state records and the public should have access to them.
A preliminary draft of Bailey's manuscript was leaked to reporters in February. Bailey wrote that it was put together with the help of more than 60,000 emails he sent or received while working for Palin.

Bailey's book agent has said that Bailey drew on "thousands of emails from the personal accounts of Sarah and Todd Palin as well as key members of the staff." The agent also maintained in a February message that the emails are not subject to Freedom of Information Act requests and won't be part of the batch scheduled to be released by the state later this month.

The state has been reviewing more than 26,000 pages of Palin's official emails for possible release at the end of this month. McLeod and news organizations filed public records requests for the emails in 2008, shortly after John McCain made his stunning announcement that Palin was going to be his running mate in the presidential election.

McLeod has been one of Palin's most vocal Alaska critics and sued in an attempt to stop the practice of using private emails for state business.

An Anchorage judge ruled that "as the statutes are currently written, private e-mail accounts may be used to conduct state business, subject to the same laws and regulations related to preservation as e-mails originating from state servers."

Palin's successor, Gov. Sean Parnell, has said he does not use private emails to do state business.

McLeod wrote the attorney general on Sunday to say she was glad her complaint was being taken seriously.

But she said she'd feel more assured if there was a law banning the use of private email accounts to conduct state business. She also said she was disturbed to hear the state might not have all of Palin's official emails.

Sarah you should be thanking Andree right now!

Frank Baileys book

From Today Book News

When a book is called "Blind Allegiance to Sarah Palin," you can guess it's not a happy story.

An imprint of Simon & Schuster announced Monday that it had signed up "Blind Allegiance," a long-rumored tell-all by former Palin aide Frank Bailey.

The imprint, Howard Books, will release Bailey's book May 24. Excerpts from an early draft were leaked to reporters earlier this year.

Bailey worked with Palin while she was governor of Alaska and when she was John McCain's running mate on the Republican presidential ticket in 2008.

Howard Books is calling "Blind Allegiance" a "chilling expose." Author Ken Morris and Alaska political blogger Jeanne Devon helped write the book.

If the excerpts were bad, I can't wait to see what the rest of the book says.  Can't wait to read it!

An early birthday present for me!

Former Palin lackey Frank Bailey penning expose about Sarah

It seems Frank Bailey, the right hand man to former Alaska Governor Sarah Palin has decided to take a little bit of the former governor's advice; he's reloading instead of retreating.

In a previewed manuscript entitled, "Blind Allegiance to Sarah Palin," Bailey uses his inside knowledge and access to private e-mails between inner-circle members to finally come clean about all of those Palin controversies.

From the 2006 gubernatorial campaign and Troopergate, to life back in Juneau after her loss with John McCain in 2008, Bailey's book contains non-stop revelations about the twisted and vindictive life of Sarah and Todd Palin that is an absolute page turner.
In short, the book does one thing that would make me want to buy it: The book validates everything I've ever written or said about Sarah Palin.
Bailey's book reveals a narcissistic liar who was an incompetent governor and a manipulative self-promoter who would stop at nothing to destroy those who crossed her. His accounts of her treatment of friends and foes alike, along with her penchant for always playing the victim, is astonishing in its historical clarity.
The first sentence of the book says it all. "On April 28, 2009, Sarah wrote a simple, but frequently repeated message: I hate this damn job..."

Just one of my favorite lines; Chapter 13 Truth Optional.
"While I disliked Andrew Halcro, the guy nailed the truth and no one -- including the always Palin-bashing, persistently misguided Dan Fagan believed him."
Regarding State Trooper Mike Wooten and Troopergate:
"Despite my own dislike for Wooten and the lack of historical context for the compulsive attacks against him, my becoming Todd's go-to guy in an attempt to destroy another man's life remains inexcusable, representing a lack of common sense or due diligence. I should have known better. By the time Todd approached me to be his ally, I was fully aware that I worked for a couple who felt revenge a sweet drink. I joined in with much enthusiasm and too few facts.

 Frank Bailey's memoir is a must-read.

If this gets to print I will be the first one in line to buy it.
